A travel company you can trust
5/5

My friend completed his safari in Tanzania with Rioba Safaris in the summer of 2025 and highly recommended the company to me after returning, knowing that I had always wanted to go on a safari. Based on his strong recommendation, I contacted Rioba Safaris and also compared them with several other companies in terms of pricing, itineraries, and overall service. Rioba clearly stood out in every aspect.

They were extremely patient and responded promptly to all my questions. They carefully customized the itinerary according to my requests, and after many rounds of communication, we finalized a plan that perfectly suited my needs. About a week before departure, I didn’t hear from them, which made me feel a bit uneasy at first. However, once I arrived in Tanzania, I realized that everything had been arranged exactly as agreed — smoothly, professionally, and well organized.

During the trip, I sometimes had new ideas or small issues, and they always did their best to help solve them with great care and clear communication. I truly believe the owner is a very trustworthy and responsible person. On the last day of the journey, he personally came to pick us up, which left a very deep impression on me. He is someone who is highly capable of solving problems and ensuring that everything is taken care of properly.

I would confidently recommend Rioba Safaris to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania.

Very responsible and efficient guys
5/5

During 3 days we have visited 3 conservation areas – Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Areas and Manyara Lake National Park. The whole safari has been very well organized, smooth, interesting and all experience exceeded our best expectations. Before the trip to Tanzania I have maintained contacts with Rioba Safari through manager Jonas, who was very attentive and kept us informed on every step of the process. Regardless that it was a late evening of Saturday, I have received a response from Rioba manager Jonas 15 min. after I have submitted a request for quotations to safaribooking.com! Jonas even contacted Tanzania’s Immigration Department (this was clearly outside his safari duties) when we had some delays obtaining of electronic Tanzania’s visa. Jonas welcomed us at Arusha airport. Our accommodation in Karatu was also green and perfect with possibility to submerge in refreshing pool after intensive day of safari and very good food. Our guide and driver Hakim was very good in time planning and efficiency. He also was very knowledgeable not only about species, but also was able to answer many of our questions on local customs, political situation and many other subjects beyond animals and birds. Hakim was also aware about protection system, e.g. what the difference between national park and conservation area. Overall – he was not only driver, but very interesting companion for conversation. The last but not the least – Rioba Safari proposed us very good price for 3 days of safari. Whoever I told later the price of our package, all were praising it as a very good deal. So, I highly recommend Rioba Safari and I am sure they will not disappoint you.

A journey of discoveries
5/5

From start to finish communications with Rioba Safaris has been excellent. There were so many tour operators to choose from and Rioba proved themselves to be incredibly helpful, reliable and friendly. We were looked after from the very start of our tour day to our return back to Zanzibar. Eric was our guide and was very accommodating, knowledgeable and took the time to give us as much as we could from our overall experience. The guides all work closely together to ensure all park visitors have the best experience whilst in the parks. Our lodge was excellent and the food and hospitality exceeded our expectations. We really thought this would a once in a lifetime experience but now we're already thinking about a trip to the Serengeti. Thank you so much Jonas and Eric for a truly memorable experience.

An Unforgettable Cross-Border Safari with the Best Team!
5/5

We just returned from an incredible safari adventure across Kenya and Tanzania, and I cannot recommend this team enough!

A huge thank you to Donant, who was our main contact. He was extremely reliable and always responded to our messages promptly. Whenever we had questions or needed assistance, he was there to solve our problems immediately, making the whole planning process smooth and stress-free.

Our guide and driver, Eric, was absolutely fantastic! He is not only a skilled driver but also a very humorous and knowledgeable guide. Thanks to his sharp eyes and expertise, we were able to spot a wide variety of animals.

Our itinerary took us to Amboseli National Park in Kenya and the breathtaking Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania. From the majestic views of the snow-capped mountains to the vast plains teeming with wildlife, every moment was magical.

If you are planning a safari in East Africa, look no further. This team made our dream trip come true!
