We’ve just returned from an incredible safari experience through Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti, and we can’t stop thinking about how perfect everything was — thanks to our amazing guides, Francis and John.

From the very first day, Francis and John impressed us with their exceptional kindness, professionalism, and deep knowledge of the parks and wildlife. They were not only incredibly welcoming and attentive, but they also went above and beyond to make sure our trip was personalized and suited to our pace and interests. They carefully designed the itinerary to include a balance of adventure, comfort, and unforgettable views — and they absolutely nailed it.

We were lucky enough to see all the animals we had dreamed of: lions up close, cheetahs sprinting across the savannah, herds of elephants, giraffes, hippos, countless zebras, and even a rare leopard resting in a tree. Every day felt like a scene out of a documentary, and we owe it all to the sharp eyes and tracking skills of our guides.

Tarangire offered a magical start with its iconic baobabs and dense elephant populations, Ngorongoro was simply breathtaking — like stepping into another world — and Serengeti… what can we say? Endless plains filled with life, and every game drive felt like a new adventure.

Francis and John were not just guides, but true companions throughout the journey. Always cheerful, respectful, and incredibly knowledgeable, they made us feel safe and cared for at all times. Whether we had a question about animal behavior, local culture, or just wanted to take a spontaneous photo stop, they were always happy to oblige with a smile.

This safari wasn’t just a trip — it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and it wouldn’t have been the same without Francis and John. We cannot recommend them enough. If you’re thinking about going on safari in Tanzania, do yourself a favor and ask for them by name. You’ll be in the best hands possible.

Asante sana, Francis and John — we’ll never forget this journey!
