very professional and empathetic accompaniment of our trip
5/5

We felt well looked after throughout the entire trip, everything was perfectly prepared. All of the very friendly Zepisa employees accompanied us at all times and were on site to discuss details or clarify questions. They were also willing to translate for us when we met people who did not speak English. The accommodations were very well chosen, and on all-day trips there was always a lunch provided along the way, which was very plentiful. There was also always an adequate supply of water.
Thank you for everything!

Helpful and reliable safari company
5/5

We were looking for a local safari company in Iringa for some Safari in Ruaha Park and reached out to Zepisa Safari. Nyemo replied instantly and gave us different offers that fitted our request. Not only did he make us a fair and good price but he was also very flexible with the dates, because we weren’t sure what day we would arrive in Iringa, our starting point. Without asking for it, he gave us a lot of helpful tips and recommendations for transportation possibilities, accommodation, etc., which we were extremely grateful for. The safari with our guide Abakuki was excellent, the park very authentic and not as touristic as the parks in the northern part of Tanzania and we saw lots of animals including a big group of lions, which was one of our highlights. Nyemo and his crew did everything to make our stay as comfortable and safe as possible. We experienced 3 amazing days in Ruaha National Park and would recommend the company for sure.

Thank you for the great safari! Enjoyed it a lot!

Hike and safari Experience
5/5

We used Zepisa African Safaris for Kilimanjaro hike on the Machame route as well as for Serengeti safari. Zepisa exceeded our expectations with the amount of care and diligence shown towards us. Nyemo was very responsible and quick with responses to our numerous emails and phone calls for months before we started our journey. Our hike leader, Dickson, and his team , made sure we were comfortable and well fed throughout our 7 day hike and ensured all 12 of us in our group successfully and safely summited Mt.Kilimanjaro.
During our 4 day safari to Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangere National Park, our Safari guides, Michael played gracious hosts and patiently drove us around to see all the animals in the parks. We highly recommend Zepisa African Safaris to anyone who is considering to hike or want to do a Safari in Tanzania.

Amazing and exciting safari!
5/5

This trip was the best we have ever done as a family. Nurdin was an excellent guide with a lot of knowledge. He really made the difference. We were able to catch the big 5 and also four out of the five small. All these were close up encounters. The accommodations were absolutely fine and the food was delicious. We highly recommend Zepisa African safaris

Best safari ever
5/5

left in October for my birthday for a safari in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It was the most beautiful experience of my life.
I was assisted by Gilbert, who customized my experience based on my wishes and needs, making the trip perfect for me. I asked to depart from Mwanza so that I could visit Lake Victoria, and to end with a day on Kilimanjaro. He welcomed my ideas with enthusiasm and created an optimal itinerary.
He also organized a surprise birthday party for me!!
I saw so many animals: in addition to the classic giraffes, elephants, and lions, I saw cheetahs, leopards, and even a rhinoceros, completing the Big Five!
He is an experienced and professional guide, but also great company for solo travelers.
The vehicle we traveled in was comfortable and safe.
Compared to other companies I contacted, the prices were the lowest. I was also able to pay easily by bank transfer.
I enjoyed the experience so much that I decided to organize another safari with Zepisa in Ruaha, which was equally spectacular. You won’t be disappointed! 🦁🌍

Once-in-a-lifetime experience in Serengeti National Park
5/5

I spent 3 days in the Serengeti, and it was an absolutely amazing and unforgettable experience. My friends and I had a private tour with a great guide who had in-depth knowledge about the animals. His expertise made our tour more exciting and meaningful. We even joked that we wanted a 1-hour lecture every night because listening to him talk about animals was so fascinating.

We didn’t upgrade our accommodation(Taji House), but if we had been informed that there was no hot water, we definitely would have. Apart from that, the place was worth the price. Every meal was satisfying, and the morning view was simply wonderful.

Overall, I highly recommend Zepisa!

Maximum reliability and accuracy.
5/5

My safari was fantastic, I saw amazing animals!
They understood what I wanted and organized the safari accordingly. The animals were important to me, I didn't ask for luxury, so I got exactly from Zepisa what I asked for. They didn't offer the lowest price among several other companies, but it was probably the best value for money. Communication was good via email, and Nyemo typically responded quickly to my questions.
The organization was perfect and Omaru was an outstanding guide.
Which doesn't matter much in retrospect, but it does help improve the service:
1. Just before departure I asked for a final itinerary, which was not up to date, it was the same one I had received months earlier.
2. Unfortunately Lake Manyara is nowhere near what it was a few years ago. I should have been informed about this.
Apart from small inconveniences of Taji House everything went very well. If I were to go again, I would ask Zepisa Tours to organize it again!
