An unforgettable experience!!!
5/5

We spent 8 days with Savannah Explorers and we had a wonderful time! We planned the tour with Roberto and everything has gone as the plan. Everything was perfect: at the arrival at Kilimanjaro we know our guide, Rama. We became immediately friends! He proved to be pleasant and experienced: he has taught us everything we needed to know about Tanzania. He told us the story of Serengeti, Tarangire and Ngorongoro and everything about wildlife. If we saw so many animals we have to thank him. Savannah gave us the opportunity to visit two tribes of bushmen with a Datoga guide. He told us about uses, costums and history about them. It was a beautiful experience! Lodges and tented camp suggested by Roberto has been really comfortable and characteristic. Thank to the staff, we lived a beautiful experience in Osupuko. David, the manager, Claude, the chef, Yohana, Peter, Lukas... they made our stay unforgettable! We suggest to travel with SE because of professionalism, experience and excellent price/quality. Thank you Roberto and Greyson!
Mungu ibariki Afrika!!!

Love from Australia
5/5

We were lucky enough to join both Roberto and Greyson on Safari this July. The two raffikis were amazing. They were very happy to tailor a trip to suit us and were very professional, but above all wonderful people to travel with.

In our 6 days with them we did not have a single problem. The camps we stayed in were luxurious and didn't leave us wanting more.

Safari with these two was a once in a lifetime opportunity- they were very knowledgeable and having seen other car accidents in Africa we were glad that Greyson was such a great driver. We were lucky to see ever animal under the sun including a wonderful rhino that Greyson spotted from an unbelievable distance (he said it was easy to see!).

Greyson and Roberto run Savannah Explorers and they were always checking on their other clients who were in the parks at the same time. So you can be assured that you will be well looked after.

We feel so lucky to have shared the experience these wonderful people.
Lots of love

AMAZING - SUMA IS THE PLUS
5/5

We had the privilege of experiencing an unforgettable adventure in Tanzania, exploring the Ngorongoro Crater and the vast Serengeti. Breathtaking landscapes, incredible wildlife, and moments that will stay in our hearts forever.

A special thank you goes to Suma, our guide – an extraordinary person in every way. Not only was he incredibly professional, with deep knowledge of the wildlife, nature, and local culture, but he also welcomed us with genuine warmth, making us feel at home even in the heart of the savannah.

Suma was not just a guide, but a true travel companion: always attentive, helpful, and determined to make every moment of our safari the best it could be. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making this journey even more special.

If you’re planning to explore Tanzania, we wholeheartedly recommend doing it with Suma – it’s an experience that will stay with you forever.

Savannah Explorers took care of us, and every detail from the time we arrived to the time we left.
5/5

It was sincerely, the trip of a lifetime for myself, partner and my two adult kids! Micky curated our trip to perfection and our tour guide, Juma, executed it to perfection. He was very on point and knowledgeable about the area, culture, animals and birds. He took his work very seriously and made sure our expectations were met. I have the utmost respect for him and could not have been happier with his dedication and commitment to ensuring we were safe and well cared for.
We began our trip in Arusha, where Juma walked us through Arusha Center Market and to the Arusha Wisdom Training College which set the stage for understanding just how welcoming and friendly the Tanzanian people are and what a day in the life may look like. Day one we had a brief meeting with Juma about what we hoped to gain and experience from our trip. We were there for 2 weeks and visited Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, Northern and Central Serengeti, Lake Natron and Zanzibar. Each accommodation, the lodges and tented camps, were exceptional and accommodating. They were better than what we would experience in the States, in my opinion. I highly recommend the hot air ballooning over the Serengeti, that was indescribable. We didn't see Rhino and a Leopard but was very happy with all we did see. Another reason to return:).
We did not change any money, we were equipped with plenty of low denomination US $$ and had zero issues. Just make sure the dollars are crisp with no frayed edges. The long transfers could be a bit harrowing on the unpaved rough roads and dust but Juma made sure we would travel when we would encounter less traffic. We did not encounter any mosquitos and the weather could not have been better. We did not request luxury travel but that is what it seemed we experienced. My critical feedback would be to reduce plastic waste by having the operator supply filtered water in 5 gallon jugs instead of the single use plastic water bottles and reduce food waste by supplying smaller lunches.
I am happy we experienced all of the above which allowed me to decide where I would spend the bulk of my time the next time around.
Thank you Savannah Explorers!!

The Safari or dreams
5/5

We went on safari with Savannah in July and it was an incredible experience, all thanks mainly to our guide Emanuel.
From the moment we arrived at the airport until our departure, he followed us step by step, fulfilling all our requests, giving us thorough explanations and answering all our questions, all this using excellent Italian.
Emanuel is kind, knowledgeable, helpful and very nice, he was definitely an added value on this trip. He also always took good care of the jeep, cleaning it every evening after the day spent on Safari.
We visited three parks: the Ngorongoro crater, the Tarangire and the serengeti. The last two personally are the ones we enjoyed the most. The evening before we decided with Emanuel on the departure time, and in this respect too he was extremely flexible.
In the parks he tried to show us as many animals as possible, so much so that we even managed to see a leopard. Furthermore, my daughter wanted to have a face-to-face with a giraffe and Emanuel managed to please her thanks to a giraffe that was eating by the roadside.
In addition, during the safari days he always took care of the packed lunch, drinks and everything else that was needed.
The lodges were very nice and clean, the staff was friendly and helpful and in this respect too we were extremely satisfied.
On the way back from the airport we wanted to do some shopping and eat red bananas and Emanuel accommodated us in this too.
Having said that, we would like to say a huge thank you to Emanuel for making this a unique experience, and we would recommend him to anyone planning to go on safari in Tanzania.
A presto 🫶🏻
