Highly knowledgeable with a fun vibe.
5/5

Had the experience of a lifetime with Serengeti Wakanda Tours. Everything - accommodation, lodges, game drives, lunch, service, coordination - was on point. Our guides, Jimmy and Freddy, were very knowledgeable, kind, and a fun vibe. They spotted some excellent animals all through the drives. The overall management by Aishwarya was also fantastic which ensured that our group of 12 were always comfortable and worry free. It was an emotionally important event for us as we were celebrating our friends’ wedding and we are glad we chose Serengeti Wakanda Tours.

Helpful, honest and so sympathetic.
5/5

One word: amazing!! It’s starts from the offer to the booking, we were able to speak with someone who also speaks German. So the communication was really easy. Norina helped as a lot and was always replying really fast back and also explained things multiple times to make everything clear. She was there for us from the beginning to the very end! I asked different companies for offers and Wakanda had the best price with the best things included. We arrived in Arusha from Zanzibar and our Guide was already waiting for us. He gave us some small presents and explained us the next days. He told us a lot about the culture, the animals and the people that live here. He tried everything that we saw the best animals!! Always so helpful, sympathetic and caring. Tom was really the best guide we could asked for!! Our hotel for the night was really beautiful and the staff really nice. It was one of the best experiences we did ever in our lives. Believe me, all the money is worth it. Pleas book that trip!!!!

The guide we had was wonderful; he knew everything about the animals and the safari
5/5

The safari tour we did was by far the best experience I’ve had in my life. Seeing so many different animals roaming freely was a dream come true.
We were very lucky with our guide Tom; he was extremely friendly and very knowledgeable.
Thanks to him and his skills, we managed to see the Big Five in just two days.

The Dream Team: How Elia and Idris made our Tanzania trip unforgettable!
5/5

We found Serengeti Wakanda Tours & Safaris through a recommendation from Gemini AI, and it turned out to be the best travel decision we made. From the planning phase to the final drop-off, this team exceeded every expectation.

The Planning: A special thanks to Goodluck Mloge in the sales team. Planning a safari can be complex, but Goodluck was incredibly professional, responsive, and responsible. He handled our back-and-forth questions with patience and curated the perfect itinerary for us.

The Guide (Elia Edward Mollel - you can Google him): We feel incredibly lucky to have been assigned Elia Edward Mollel as our guide. Elia is in a league of his own.

Master Naturalist: Elia doesn't just drive; he anticipates. He has a deep understanding of animal psychology—he knew exactly what animals would do next based on the weather changes or the behavior of other animals nearby. It felt like he was always one step ahead of the wildlife.

The "Leopard Whisperer": His dedication to finding the "Big 5" is unmatched. In the Serengeti, we saw nearly 50 other vehicles waiting and failing to find a leopard. Elia was the only guide who pushed further, used his instincts, and actually found one for us.

Eagle Eyes: His eyesight is superhuman—he could spot animals from a mile away that we couldn't see even with binoculars.

A Photographer at Heart: As a huge bonus, Elia is a talented hobby photographer. He took incredible photos during the trip and generously shared them with us afterwards. This wasn't part of the package; it was just his personal kindness.



The Chef (Idris): Our chef, Idris, was the heart of our trip. He is funny, respectful, and deeply passionate about his cooking.

Vegetarian Excellence: Being vegetarian, we were worried about the food, but Idris went above and beyond. He tried his absolute best to accommodate us, and his cooking actually got better and better as the safari progressed!
Bakery Surprise: We were shocked to get fresh, delicious cakes and bakery items right in the middle of the bush. You can taste the affection he puts into his food.

The Extra Mile: Elia and the team went above and beyond the itinerary. They arranged an authentic stop for us to meet the Maasai people on the road to Arusha, and even squeezed in a city tour on our last day.


I highly recommend Serengeti Wakanda Safaris. If you book with them, ask for the "Elia and Idris" combination—you won't regret it!

Julius was very fun, knowledgeable, and really provided a welcoming environment for us all!
5/5

The wakanda tour company was very reliable and was constantly in touch to check in about how our trip was going. Accommodation and food was very good. They accommodated all our requests without issue. We booked the balloon ride too and had a very safe and pleasant ride. Our driver, Julius, kept us safe at all times and was very fun to hang out with for the duration of our safari. Would highly recommend wakanda tour and Julius too as a tour guide!!

Great value and hassle-free experience
5/5

I’ve been dreaming of going on a safari forever and this trip exceeded my expectations! Went on a 5 day safari to 4 parks, so was able to see all that the region has to offer. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the animals and their whereabouts so we saw the big 5 and others in abundance. We had a cook with us who was very talented and the fresh meals were very large and much more appealing than the box lunches other groups had. Relaxing with a few beers around the campfire after a long day in the car was also very fun and unique to this tour. Bartho was very responsive and accommodating, which made this last minute trip for me possible. Being picked up from the airport and having lodging included before and after the trip was very convenient. Overall this trip was fantastic and I’m very glad I booked with Serengeti Wakanda!

Amazing safari experience!
5/5

I can strongly recommend serengeti wakanda to anyone looking for an amazing safari experience in Tanzania!

I did a 5 day safari including Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Everything was perfect. Bartho was very helpful organizing the safari for us, Andrew was the best guide ever and Dullah made us amazing food every day.

We saw all the animals, beautiful nature and stunning sunrises. Accomandation was great and felt safe.

Asante sana to the whole team! x

Surpassed every expectation!
5/5

We booked a 7 day safari in the higher-mid range, private, for 2 people. I will limit my review to the actual service Serengeti Wakanda provides, as they are obviously a Safari agency and some services (logistics, safari guide & game drives) they provide directly, others they use partners (acommodation).

Their service is very good, any logistics issue, any problem, and they try to fix and help out. They will be there ALL the way during your trip and they will not fail. Not once did we feel left out, and this is important.

The best part of their service is their amazing guides. We had the luck of getting Max, a very knowledgeable and fun person, who went way, way out of his way to deliver what was in our expectations and much, much more. We left with wonderful experiences we could've only have dreamt, all thanks to Max. The difference between having a worthy guide like him elevates the trip to an entirely new level. Believe me, the things we saw would not have been possible had Max not put all the work he put in.

I can only recommend Serengeti Wakanda. All my friends looking to plan a Safari are getting their direct number from me.

Thank you Wakanda.
