Our seven-day safari with Safari Soles was absolutely wonderful. Everything was well organized, and we felt safe and welcome from the very beginning.
Our guide Dickson was friendly, patient, and knew so much about the animals. Thanks to him, we experienced so many beautiful moments – lions, elephants, giraffes, and stunning landscapes.
The lodges were cozy and clean, and every evening we could enjoy the sounds of nature around us.
It was an unforgettable trip, and we’re very grateful for this time with Safari Soles and Lutch.

SEAMLESS!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic Safari Experience!
My husband Adi and I have just returned from a truly fantastic safari with Safari Soles, and everything was absolutely seamless from start to finish.
We arrived into Nairobi and were picked up and driven into Tanzania to begin our 6-day safari with our wonderful guide, Dickson. The food was fantastic, the accommodation superb, and we were lucky enough to see all the amazing animals — we ticked them all off our list! Dickson was excellent at positioning us for the best views and photo opportunities.
Communication both before and during the trip was outstanding, and we felt completely taken care of throughout. We also added on the Balloon Safari, Night Drive, and Masai Village visit — all of which were well worth doing and added even more magic to an already incredible experience.
An exceptional trip from start to finish — highly recommended!

Amazing adventure and people!
After searching through the numerous companies that host safaris in Tanzania we chose Safari Soles and we couldn’t have made a better choice for our adventure! Irine who planned our trip was amazing from the first message we exchanged, she was kind and available at every time, also during our week of stay, she gave us a lot of suggestions and always tried to meet with our needs and requests. We did a 8 day trip through Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro: the lodges and tented camp were beyond our expectations and we visited the parks in the best sequence. We also want to thank our guide God Listen who showed us everything we could imagine and more, he drove for at least 8 hours per day and did everything he could to show us not only animals (we saw the big five and much more) but also the cities and beautiful landscapes. The organization is perfect, with game drive starting at around 6-8 am and finishing at 4-5 pm allowing us to see everything we could. Shout out to the amazing lunches which we think have made the difference throughout our stay, when booking your trips we advise you to ask for freshly prepared food (rice, chicken, vegetables and sauces) when possible instead of lunch boxes because we had two lunches like that (which were perfectly fine) because of time schedule but eating something fresh and typical really makes a difference. Thank you again for the amazing adventure, if you are planning to come to Tanzania please choose Safari Soles and God Listen because they are the best!
See you soon, Camilla and Rebecca from Italy.

We had a splendid time with Safari Soles and Christian
Our three day safari with Safari soles was just a bliss. From the planning phase and communication with Douglas, through pick up and first breakfast in the savannah, successfull chase of a big five till final drop off at the hotel.
Special thanks to our awesome guide Christian. Christian was very knowledgible, very kind and took care of us whole three days. He told us a lot of about animals, culture, region and country. We will miss you, Christian!!!
Operator was perfectly reliable, everything on shedule, perfect meals through trip with lovely serving, also took care of my dietary restricitions!:)
We wholeheartedly recommend safari soles! We will be back in two years for Kilimanjaro!

Unforgetable
We have just returned from an unforgetable experience with Safari Soles, after a 8 day safari on Tanzania with my wife. From the beginning, the whole process was effortless and smooth, thanks to Ally Sanagora, which was the first to answer my mail requesting a quote. He answered all my requests on a profissional way and made all the arrangements necessary according to my preferences. He was very polite during the whole process and also during the safari, making sure that everything was going ok. We have been in contact for months and it was a pleasure dealing with Ally!
Regarding the Safari itself, we went to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Tarangire prepared us for Serengeti. In Manyara we fell in love with the jungle and all its birds and monkeys. In Serengeti we got emotional with the raw nature of the park and in Ngorongoro we witnessed the closest thing to the Garden of Eden, on Earth. Our guide was Raymond and we got the luck to have a second guide, Balthazar aka Papali, which was learning to become a Safari guide as well. While Raymond was polite, patient, discrete and very knowledgeable, Balthazar was funny, made incredible videos of us with my phone and gave us lots of precious information as well. Raymond offered us the big five (with 3 rhinos!), but so much more!! He knew the best spots for all the animals, taking into account the unpredictability of it. The animals kept coming toward us and Raymond knew just where and when to wait for some magical moments. And thanks to his efforts, there were so many of them! From a cave with a lion and his cubs, a cheetah standing with her two little ones, a leopard spotting a herd of Thompson gazelles from the top of a tree and actually chasing one for her two cubs, a moment in which we were looking to a lake with a crocodile and all of a sudden the lake was being invaded with 40 elephants that stood right in front of us for a spa moment of water and stinking mud and finally, a lion and his lioness standing tall in the savanah with the wind blowing through their heads, we had it all! We also enjoyed every stop (and there were many) for just looking at the acacia trees, spotting vultures, eagles and other birds of prey, but also the hornbills (even a black and white casqued hornbill), little birds like the blue starling and the most beautiful lilac breasted roller bird and many african green bee eaters. I’m a bird lover but we had lots of “f#%k birds” moments with the mammals! Thanks to Balthazar we had the most incredible videos and he was the perfect assistent guide, always learning but always trying to help us as well. It wouldn’t have been the same without him. The accomodations were top notch, very intimate and friendly and we were always received with a fresh white towell to clear the dust (believe me, you’ll need it), and a fresh drink. The food was fantastic, just like home, but the best meal was on the bushes in Serengeti with our guides. Raymond and Balthazar were the best and we can’t thank them enough. Believe me when I say you will be in very good hands with them, that’s for sure!!
We finished our journey with Materuni waterfalls and the hot springs. It was an adventure going into the cascade and knowing all about the whole process of making coffee out of beans. We even prepared our own coffee from the beginning. The people in the village were very friendly and Innocent was the perfect guide through it all. The hot springs were the best finish for our day, just before getting to the airport.
In sum, if you’re thinking about doing a safari, look no further and book with Safari Soles! You’ll never regret it, you’ll return with amazing memories, lots of stories to remember and you’ll be able keep your memory of Tanzania alive! Our, will never die…

Excellent 12 days trip to Maasai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire & Zanzibar
Safari Soles helped us plan our 12 days trip to Maasai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire and Zanzibar. Its was very well planned and well thought of according to our requests. Dickson was our guide for the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire part of the trip. He was very knowledgeable and experienced. We learned a lot from him and got to see the big five, the ugly five and so much more. We even got to see 3 lion huntings! The picnic lunches prepared by Dickson was also immaculate with even hot coffee made to your request.
No doubt the trip was exhausting with early morning game drives and bumpy rides…but it was all worth it. Excellent trip.

Perfect Organization and very considerate
Our safari with Dickson was absolutely outstanding and exceeded all our expectations. From the very beginning, we felt extremely well taken care of. Dickson is an incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional guide who is clearly passionate about what he does.
Throughout the entire safari, he shared a wealth of knowledge about the wildlife, nature, and ecosystem. He also asked many questions to better understand our interests and consistently checked in to make sure our wishes and concerns were met. It truly felt like he was fully dedicated to providing us with the best possible safari experience.
One of the absolute highlights was that, thanks to his experience and great instincts, we were able to see all of the Big Five — an unforgettable experience. The nature, the tours, and the animal encounters were a clear 10/10.
The organization was also flawless: from the smooth airport pickup to all transfers and perfectly arranged meals. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all taken care of, so we didn’t have to worry about anything and could fully enjoy the safari.
We are incredibly grateful for this amazing experience and can wholeheartedly recommend Dickson as a safari guide. Anyone looking for a perfectly organized safari with a warm, knowledgeable, and dedicated guide will be in the best hands with him.

Amazing Staff, can’t wait to use them again.
Can’t speak highly enough about Safari Soles, as they planned an amazing trip of a Lifetime for or family of four. From the transportation, to the activities, to The migration camps, we enjoyed everything. All of the food was delicious, the service impeccable, and the people of Tanzania are so special. The staff of Safari Soles took care of everything. Staring with Douglas in the office who would answer all of our many questions, sometimes at crazy hours with the time difference. Then we met Eric, our driver to and from Nairobi to Arusha, who is friendly and knowledgeable. And lastly, the best Safari guide ever is Innocent. He knew so much about the animals, he always placed the jeep in the best location for viewing and photography. We will never forget this trip and thank Safari Soles for a job well done..

An Unforgettable Northern Circuit Honeymoon
Our 6-Day Northern Circuit Honeymoon Safari (Nov 29 – Dec 4, 2025) with Safari Soles was the most extraordinary travel experience we’ve ever had.
From the planning stages, Oken ensured everything was seamless. He thoughtfully tailored our itinerary to align with our interests, honeymoon expectations, and pacing preferences. Communication was clear, logistics were effortless, and we felt confident and supported before we ever stepped foot in Tanzania.
Safari Monster Simon, our safari guide, elevated the experience even further. With formal training in tourism and African ecology, he didn’t simply locate wildlife - he interpreted entire ecosystems. He explained watershed systems, fire ecology, predator-prey behavior, medicinal plants, and conservation policy with depth and clarity.
As someone who works professionally in sustainability and conservation, I can confidently say this was the most impressive eco-tourism experience I’ve encountered. Simon’s tracking ability was extraordinary, spotting subtle movement at full speed and positioning us perfectly for unforgettable sightings.
As a newer birder, I logged over 100 new species thanks to his expertise. His passion also extended to photography - he brought professional camera equipment and generously shared breathtaking wildlife images with us at no additional cost. Many of those photos will be framed to hang in our home.
The vehicle was modern and comfortable, and each lodge offered exceptional hospitality, stunning views, and outstanding food. Our final day with Enock (also a rockstar of a guide!) for the Kilimanjaro hike, waterfall visit, coffee tour, and hot springs provided a wonderful cultural and scenic conclusion to the trip.
Safari Soles created an experience that felt personal, immersive, and flawlessly executed from start to finish. We are already planning our return and would recommend them to anyone we know for an absolutely amazing experience anywhere in Tanzania.

Phenomenal experience of a lifetime
The most amazing trip that far exceeded all expectations. Planning, communication and interaction were all excellent, as was the hospitality and food we received in the places we stayed. They respected our requirements and budget and put together an incredible itinerary. We had an outstanding, knowledgeable and thoughtful guide who looked after us all so well and answered our multiple questions with enthusiasm and fascinating and informative information. We saw so much wildlife including birds and plants which Omar was able to tell us about. It simply could not have been a better or more enriching and exciting few days. I would highly recommend Safari Soles and would definitely recommend the tented camps in the Serengeti (where lots of the drives are off road) and Tarangire parks. Thank you to all the team for a trip of a lifetime which exceeded all our expectations. Hopefully we’ll be back one day.
