Unforgettable Tanzanian Safari with Savannah Tours – Our safari in Tanzania with Savannah Tours was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived in Arusha everything was perfectly organized—first class lodges, a well-paced itinerary, and breathtaking wildlife encounters. Our guide, Edmund, was outstanding—knowledgeable, passionate, and attentive. Thanks to him, we saw the Big Five and so much more, including lions, cheetahs, and elephant herds. Each park—Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti—offered its own unique beauty, including a hot air ballon ride. What really stood out was the personal touch. Savannah Tours went above and beyond to make this a once-in-a-lifetime trip. We felt safe, cared for, and completely immersed in the magic of Tanzania. Highly recommended!

I think it was one the best trips I have ever had.We were delaying it due to its being expensive but in the end it was worth until the last penny. Cliff was so helpful with his clarifications since the beginning and he assigned a great driver to us, Masanza was amazing during the whole trip that we have had the amazing moments amazing wild life views and nature more than my expectations. Difficult to explain with words.. I am looking forward to my next safari trip. Didn't even mention the beauty of Zanzibar .. amazing beaches and friendly people all around including colourful picturesk and historical stone town..

In October 2024 we had a wonderful safari on Tansania. Jared our Guide was perfect! He is a very god and safe driver, knows a lot about the country and the people and is also a really great person. Thank you very much Jared! We have traveled to several countries in Africa, but we have never experienced such friendly people as in Tansania. The scenery in Tansania (especially theSerengeti) is also wonderful and very varied. We sae every animal imaginable… in incredibly beautiful parks. The hotels were all very nice and beautifully locatet, the staff was very ftiendly and the food was excellent! Thank you Savannah Tours!

We had an excellent experience with Savannah Tours. We travelled in November 2024, 2 days Tarangire, 1 day Laka Manyara, 1 day Ngorongoro, 2 days Serengeti. Savannah Tours organized the whole programm for us, gave us recommendation for the accommodations, and route and organized as well a wonderful ballon safari in Serengeti. Our guide Omary took care of us very well and gave us an unforgetable experience with seeing many, many animals. We just had a perfect Tanzania-Experience. Everything worked out perfectly! We would certainly go again for Savannah Tours, very experienced. We mainly took videos, so we don't really have good photos.
