EXCELLENT Based on 236 reviews Herman H2023-11-26Verified An amazing, well run experience! Even for a "budget" tour, everything was well organized and high value. The tents were already set up at each camp site with comfortable sleeping pads and tasty, fresh, and homemade food was served for every meal. You will see even more animals than what you hope for and be struck by the natural beauty on this unforgettable experience! Adrian Lahuerta2023-11-26Verified An unforgettable experience! Seregenti African Tours provided us with a one-in-a-lifetime unforgettable experience. Lucas, the manager, was in continuous communication with us prior to our trip to help us tailor-fit the experience to our expectations. Abu and Ali, the drivers/guides also did a great job in addressing our preferences during the 5-day trip. They were very knowledgeable and told us many interesting facts about the animals and the wildlife. The accommodations were really good, clean and beautiful. The staff working in those accommodations was extremely kind and the went out their way to give my girlfriend a wonderful memory for heir birthday (cake+performance). On too of this, they provided us with the nicest photographer, Herman, and some cute t-shirts. And last but not least, they are a 100% local company, which makes the experience more authentic and pleasant. /Adri Vitalijus P2023-11-22Verified Great choice! Great safari, driver was experiened and chill, their car was good, meals were tasty and appartaments were comfortable. Would recommend for everybody for mid range safari, flexible ogranisation. Thomas H2023-11-22Verified Unforgettable Experience Thanks for the amazing experience! The guide, food, venues, organisation were all perfect, nothing to complain about and highly recommendable Our group and weather conditions contributed to an unforgettable experience, but thats beyond the organisers responsibility ;) Rhys2023-11-17Verified Amazing six days in Tanzania! Lucas and his team helped organise an amazing safari for me, and a great trip to the Materuni waterfalls and coffee tour on my final day, which was a great addition. They were always a great pleasure to deal with, and willing to help and answer any of my questions. They took a lot of stress out of the holiday, which left me able to enjoy all the amazing experiences offered in Tanzania. I would thoroughly recommend booking with Serengetii African Tours to anyone looking for a great safari experience. Percy Y2023-11-16Verified Love the safaris in North Tanzania Very nice safari. Enjoyed my time Great guide Rocky and cook Pius. Camping in tent was fine. Hakuna Matata with Serengeti safari Karolina S2023-11-15Verified Private not always mean private.... The tour was very good. We have seen a lot of animals. Great guide-Abu, and great cooker-Mattieu. The National Parks were amazing. The place to sleep-very well. Plan of this tour very well. But....I would like to write that in this company, if you take private tour...this not always mean this will be a private...and not more than 6 person could be...7. First day the company put to our car 2 another people. It was a private tour-we paid many us a private tour. Even if I try to explain that this is a tour only for me and 4 my friends, the man from company tell me that there is no word "private" in my documents. I was to nervous to could find the note (which was on my document from the company that this is a safari for group not bigger that 6 person...with to other person (Michał i Sandra) they joined to our group in the car there was 7 people and the guide. The couple which share with us our PRIVATE safari paid 500 dolar for this one day tour. I think this never should happen. If they asked I suppose we will agree for company other person, but the way they do this it was not nice. The woman from company told us sorry...but the firs day was awful. After the first day, for the next day we were only in 5 people )plus of course guide and cooker). Naseer S2023-11-12Verified Life time experience It was my life time experience to go for safari. Luckily we got an excellent tour company. Serengeti African Tours. Six days tour was very well planned. Particularly our driver Abu was a best knowledge able driver. He knew where all the animals sighting was possible. We saw almost every animal in the Serenget, Norogoro, Thringeti. We will strongly recommend this tour company. Shabbir S2023-11-12Verified Life time experience in Tanzania. The company serengeti Safari was great and very accommodating. We had lifetime experience with me my wife my brother and his wife. Our game driver Abu was extremely best and safe while showing us lots of animals and giving us details about the place and animals. I will highly recommend this company .talk or email to Lucas he was also very professional and cartious. All my family and my friend will use them for this adventure. Good job Lucan and Abu. Shabbir shaikh Victoria F2023-11-09Verified Amazing It has been an amazing tour with excellent guides.
