Peter was amazing, he went over and beyond for us. He was a great guide. slightly disappointing.
4/5

Peter was amazing, not only we had a great guide but we found a passionate safari friend.
We loved the stay in into the wild Serengeti. Overall food was disappointing, we would have appreciated more local and authentic food rather than touristic one. Great staff everywhere, particularly in Heritage camps.
Bouganvillea was disappointing definitely not luxury. Food was very basic, no entertainment was offered.

We believe Joagro Safari offered the good service however, we think this could’ve been done in four days and not five which should have cut down the costs. The first day was unnecessary and felt like a waste of time (Tarangeri). We recommended to do Ngorongoro on day one, then just spend the rest of the day in Serengeti.

Really good safari experience, could have been better..!
4/5

My husband and I did a 4 nights 5 days tour with Joagro Safaris. Overall we had a good experience for the entire duration. We visited Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. We loved the whole wilderness experience with our guide Anwar. I would like to detail out day by day experience -

Day 1 - Anwar picked us from the airport on time and dropped at the Hotel Tulia. The drive was pleasant and we loved the greenery around Arusha. The hotel is basic with minimum amenities, Ok for a transit one night stay.

Day 2 - We start around 8.30 am to Ndutu part of Serengeti. I feel it was quite late to start given the distance to cover and time taken to reach. The journey was good, however, we were rushed to the stay inside the Park which was towards Central Serengeti. We did mention we wanted to explore the ndutu side as January season is for migration to be around this area. We fell short by easy two hours, had we started early we would have had more time to spend before reach our camp stay.
Having said the above, the Signature Into the wild stay was breathtaking. The views were gorgeous. food was delicious and staff extremely courteous. We loved the overall experience at this luxury camp stay.

Day 3 - We started at 7.15 from the camp post breakfast, we didn't see many animals to our surprise, the park seemed empty. Our guide didn't do much tracking on this day we felt. Since we didn't see any cheetahs in the park, he said he would take us for another drive outside park to spot them and thus he was trying to rush us out of the park. We exited the park early around 1 pm with expectation of the cheetah spotting as he had mentioned, Upon exit, he took us hardly 2/3 Km towards ndutu lake on the road just on the entrance of the Serengeti gate and he said we must return as he doesn't have permit to take us on that side. We felt cheated as he rushed us out of the park and then did not continue the drive that he mentioned he would. We completely understand its luck to spot animals and it would have been OK that we didn't see cheetahs but we didn't like the misleading and then not following through. Also if we would have known that Ndutu lake needs additional permit we would have been ok to get that permit and spend more time in that area as the park was kind of empty of animals.
Also we had to wait almost 2 hours at the Nabi gate for getting clearance to check out which wasted a lot of time. We saw all other vehicles checking out faster than we did, and we were given a reason that network was slow. I am not sure if that was the real reason.
We reached the Ngorongoro wild camp quite late as our vehicle broke down. People on the way were extremely helpful they helped us alot in this situation. The camp was decent and food was also good.

Day 4 - Our guide was pushing to start for Ngorongoro safari early but he never told us the reason on the previous day that the permit to be in Ngorongoro was only till 3 pm. Again this felt misleading. We started around 7.30 am thinking the Crater is small and we can spend whole day inside looking for animals, however we didn't know about the time limit only till we started our safari on Day 4. If guide had told us in advance we would have planned to start early as he suggested. The ngorongoro safari was good, we spotted many animals. We decided to skip the lunch in the crater to increase our safari time. We only saw two lions, I think the claim that 22 lion families reside in the crater seems bit inaccurate.
Anwar dropped us at the bouganvillea hotel around 4 PM. The hotel was really good and food was super delicious.

Day 5 - We visited the Lake Manyara national park. The park has a dense jungle which was quite nice however we didn't see the tree climbing lions for which it is famous. Our guide told us that its not the season for lions in the park. I think since trip operators are the experts, they should guide tourists with such details while we do our bookings. We google information and plan the trip but if its not the best time to visit a park, then I would expect the expert tell us how to better plan the trip.

One last thing to add - we were promised Complimentary Wine and Beer for the trip but not served even on a single day. Since it was complimentary it felt awkward to ask. It would have been great to be honest and let us know if promised things would not be served for whatever reasons.

Overall the experience was good, Jonas and Anwar were warm and courteous. Only the above few issues left us a little dissatisfied given the amount of money we spent on the whole trip. If the above is addressed then Joagro would be a definitely 5/5 tour operator.

The tour was really nice. The chef was great and the food tasted delicious. All people were very kind and helpful. They tried to make the best out of the Safari. Sometimes it was a bit unorganized.

Joagro's planned Safari met all our needs and more, especially our tour guide Peter, he's excellent
5/5

From the planning stages to the end of our Safari our communications and service with Joagro was excellent prompt and successful. An affordable trip where we felt our accommodation was perfect for us, where it was neither cheap and nasty nor did we feel ripped off!! Our tour guide, Peter, (I would always request him) was excellent. Very knowledgable guiding us through Tarangire, the Serengeti Ngorongora and a visit to the Masai. Always finding the best game viewing sites and always very friendly and chatty. Spoke perfect English with a great sense of humour. 5 out of 5 stars 🌟!!!

Sam and Ben Made Our Tanzania Safari Unforgettable
5/5

We had an incredible Tanzania safari experience, and a huge part of that was thanks to Sam and Ben, who were absolutely amazing throughout the entire trip. Their knowledge of the parks, the wildlife, and the best times and locations to spot animals made every single game drive memorable. They knew exactly where to take us and when to be there, which made a real difference in what we got to see.
Managing a group of 10 is no small task, but they handled it with ease and stayed incredibly flexible with our pace, preferences, and changes along the way. The photographer who joined us was also fantastic and captured the trip beautifully.
The warm bowls served daily on the drives were a lovely touch, and the food overall was okay, nothing exceptional, but perfectly fine. What really stood out was how kind, patient, and genuinely welcoming the whole team was.
Highly recommend, especially for larger groups looking for a personalized experience.

We visited beautiful parks, saw amazing wildlife, and enjoyed unforgettable moments as a group. Our guides were knowledgeable and made the experience comfortable and enjoyable.

Best safari ever
5/5

This was our first time on a safari in Africa (Tanzania). We contacted several companies, and Joagro gave us the best itinerary and value for our money. You won’t regret hiring them; the service is excellent.
Jonas, the owner, is always available on WhatsApp to answer any questions or help with anything you need.
Peter was our guide during our 7-day stay in Tanzania, and it was the best experience of our lives. His English is excellent, and he has incredible knowledge about the wildlife.
He really takes his time and is dedicated to finding and showing you all the animals. He also taught us so much about the Maasai culture. Peter was an outstanding guide—very kind and respectful at all times.
Our experience wouldn't have been the same without him.

Wehighly recommend them

Unforgettable Private Safari with Joagro Safaris
5/5

We did our safari in Tanzania with Joagro Safaris, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. We discovered the company online, and their excellent value for money immediately and stood out to us - as well as the many great reviews we read beforehand. From the very beginning, communication with the owner Jonas was smooth, quick, and reliable. He was always available, incredibly helpful, and made the whole planning process easy.

During the safari, we were guided by Peter, whom we both thought was fantastic. He didn’t just share his knowledge about the animals; he also gave us deep insights into the culture, history, and everyday life in Tanzania. Through personal stories and his thoughtful, considerate way of communicating, he made the safari feel truly special. He had a great sense of when to talk and when to simply enjoy the quiet moments in nature — something we appreciated a lot.

The food during the safari was another pleasant surprise. Every time we had a picnic, we were served freshly cooked, warm meals — much better than what we expected from typical safari lunches.

Overall, we were extremely satisfied. We were able to see all the animals we hoped for, learned so much along the way, and felt well taken care of from start to finish.

We can fully recommend Joagro Safaris!

He made us to see the Big Five! Breathtaking!
5/5

My best friend and I went on a five-day safari tour with Joagro Safari, and everything went smoothly.
We stayed at different locations along the way, and both the food and the accommodations were very good. The people we met were always very friendly, which made our experience even better.

We were extremely satisfied with our guide Peter. From the very beginning, he was punctual, friendly, and attentive. He was also very communicative and answered all our questions about the animals and nature. At all times, he made a great effort to spot wildlife for us, and he even made it possible for us to see the Big Five. We had a really fun and enjoyable time with Peter! We truly appreciate his efforts and want to thank him once again. It was simply breathtaking!

We highly recommend Joagro Safari and our guide Peter!
