Perfect safari experience
5/5

The best tour company. From booking to the safari, everything was above our expectations. The communication with Beatrice for the booking was so easy and fast. She checked on us few times before the travel date, and was available if we had any questions to help us. The safari it self was just amazing and breathtaking. Our guide, Benedict, was a walking tanzania encyclopedia, all the knowledge he passed to us was so interesting. He was so passionate and so caring for the wellbeing of the animals making sure we dont disturb then and respect them. We really appreciated the way he was caring for us making sure we were ok. We were lucky enough to sight every animals during our safari and even tho it depends on nature, i’m pretty sure our guide knowledge of the animals habit helped with that. I recommend this safari tour company 1000%.

Amazing service, experience and staff
5/5

Wakanda is the best!
We had the most amazing time on our honeymoon doing a 5 night, 6 day safari. From start to finish Wakanda were brilliant - Goodluck was very helpful answering our questions and kept checking in to make sure everything was ok both before and during the tour. Fabian picked us up from the airport and gave us a great city tour.
Max was our tour guide, and he was absolutely brilliant. He was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Max knew lots of interesting information about his country, the environment and the animals. You can tell he is very passionate about his job and he went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. We loved his Land Rover and felt we had the best jeep on the tour! We felt very safe with Max in the Land Rover and it was unstoppable on the terrain! Max has brilliant eyesight and we were able to spot all the animals thanks to his help and excellent driving ability - amongst lots of amazing things we saw two leopards, a rhino, and a cheetah with four babies all of which are very rare! Max was very respectful of nature and the environment and ensured other safari tour guides were too which was really good to see.
Lunches were delicious and we were one of the only few tours to have a hot lunch, with picnic table and chairs and even a canopy from the jeep to shade us from the sun.
We stayed at the Gran Meliá in Arusha then Mawe Mawe lodge, Signature Serengeti camp, intimate camp zebra, and masek tented lodge. We were blown away by how beautiful each camp was, the staff on each site were so friendly and food very nice - plus hot water in each! Max made sure we checked in safely every night and always ensured we were happy with the schedule for the next day and checked in regularly with us.
We explored several tour operators but we are very pleased we chose Wakanda and even more pleased we got Max as our guide!

Tanzania with Wakanda - Thanks Aishwarya and Edward
5/5

We had the most unforgettable safari experience with Serengeti Wakanda, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, everything was handled with such care, professionalism, and warmth.
A special mention to Aiswarya Vyas, who was in charge of organizing our trip. She was always responsive and quick to answer every question, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. She even noted my birthday and went above and beyond to make it truly special – a thoughtful touch that meant so much to me.
On the ground, we were incredibly lucky to have Edward as our guide. His dedication and passion were unmatched. He was more enthusiastic and determined to spot animals than we were! Thanks to his patience and sharp eyes, we not only saw the Big 5 but also witnessed the breathtaking Great Migration up close. There were several moments where, had it not been for Edward’s determination to wait and track the herds, we would have missed extraordinary sightings. His deep knowledge, respectful attitude towards wildlife, and genuine excitement made every game drive an adventure in itself.
Serengeti Wakanda made our safari seamless, magical, and truly once-in-a-lifetime. If you’re looking for a safari company that combines professionalism with heartfelt care, look no further.

Everything just perfect
5/5

The organisation was perfect from the beginning with great communication. I asked many itinerary changes and had quick and accurate feedback at all times. The team was very responsive. Special thanks to Goodluck who was very kind and patient. Once arrived the trip started and it was fantastic. The food and the lodges were above expectations but the safari was incredible. Impossible to describe. Our guide, Jeremia, was the best. We saw the big 5 thanks to his ability to spot animals and predict their behaviour. He gave us interesting lessons teaching us a lot. He was super kind and the best guide we could hope for!
I the end, when I come back, I'll do it with Serengeti Wakanda for sure!

Top quality. Serengeti Wakanda offers seamless planning and expert guides for unforgettable safari
5/5

We are so happy we chose Serengeti Wakanda! From the very beginning, communication via WhatsApp was smooth and easy (thank you, Sabrina!). The safari was excellently planned, with good accommodation, tasty food, and, most importantly, an outstanding guide.

Our guide, Tumaini (aka Tuma), was incredibly knowledgeable and always shared fascinating insights about the animals. He seemed to know exactly where to find each species, even the rarest ones. Thanks to him, we saw an incredible variety of wildlife. Lions, elephants, buffalos, and, to our amazement, even a cheetah and a rhino, which are notoriously hard to spot.

Tuma is a fantastic guide, and we can wholeheartedly recommend Serengeti Wakanda for anyone planning a safari.

Unforgettable life experience
5/5

We had the most amazing 6-day safari experience in Tanzania with Serengeti Wakanda! 🌿🐘

Our guide Max was truly excellent – always attentive, full of positive energy, and constantly making sure we had the best experience possible. He knew exactly where to take us for incredible views and always found the perfect spots for our lunches in the middle of the savanna. He even positioned the safari car at the best angles so we could capture breathtaking photos of the animals. 📸🦁 He turned our trip into not just a safari, but one of the best life experiences we’ve ever had. With Max, everything flowed smoothly and effortlessly – truly HAKUNA MATATA! 💛

We also want to highlight Ushma, who coordinated every detail exactly as requested and went above and beyond by arranging special touches at each hotel to celebrate our anniversary. 🥂✨ These thoughtful details made the journey even more memorable and meaningful.

We are so grateful for this unforgettable adventure and would highly recommend Serengeti Wakanda, Max, and Ushma to anyone looking for a magical safari experience in Tanzania

Best safari guides I have ever experienced!
5/5

I just completed the most impactful, educational, moving, adventurous, and fun safari of my entire life, and I have been on several others in Tanzania, Kenya, South Africa, and Namibia.

We were a group of fifteen tourists traveling with Amanda Rieman of Kapu Africa. Amanda found Wakanda Tours and Safaris for us, and I’m so glad she did. We split onto three vehicles, and I was primarily with Andrew. All three guides of the guides we had, Andrew, Jimmy, and Louis, were excellent.

Andrew has been with the company for over ten years and has been guiding for over twenty years. This experience shone through as he drove us through Tarangire, Manyara, Ngorongoro, and the Serengeti, all of which he knows like the back of his hand. Andrew has so much experience that he knew how and where to look for the animals and how to position us for the best viewing and photos. His knowledge of the animals, their behavior, and the areas was phenomenal. He also had a guide book and quality binoculars handy for us, which I appreciated as I had lost mine in a previous country! He rarely used the binoculars as he has the best vision for spotting animals that I have ever seen.

This safari was so good that I intend to return with my grandchildren, special requesting Andrew.

Experienced, organized company with great and nice guides.
5/5

Super safari with Wakanda. We were looked after by a top team. First day with Joshua for a day visit and then the safari tour with Tom. Tom is great on safari, he's experienced and knows the techniques for finding animals and seeing them up close. Dullah was our chef, we ate very well throughout the safari, thanks to him for his great work done with heart. He invented the Dullah's magic box as a great alternative to oven.
During the tour, everything is done in collaboration with the guide to best adapt to the experience we want to have. For example, he concentrates on the animals that interest each person the most and gives us time to observe them properly. We finished with a day hike in Kilimanjaro with Samuel Kulaya and Zakayo. They are also very good guides who love to talk to us about the country's cultures and history. They're all very friendly and I'd recommend them

Safari indimenticabile.
5/5

We chose Wakanda based on the excellent reviews, and we weren't wrong.
From the planning stage, everything was flawless. During the booking process, we were assisted by Goodluck, who was available to answer all our questions and even worked tirelessly to get a suitcase that had arrived late to the northern Serengeti.
During the safari, we were accompanied by Zepha, a knowledgeable guide who was available to answer all our questions. He speaks fluent Italian, and thanks to him, we were able to see all the Big Five and much more. He knows the parks and the best spots for animal spotting perfectly, and he knows his way around dirt roads.
Furthermore, despite the early start, he didn't show the slightest sign of fatigue and was even happy when we found a new animal to photograph. The car was clean every morning, and we had everything we needed to spend our days peacefully (water, beer, wine, wifi, electricity).
Last but not least, we must mention the kitchen. We didn't have the traditional lunchbox provided by most agencies, but a proper lunch cooked by the talented Moses. A young, knowledgeable, and very willing chef, every breakfast, lunch, and dinner was prepared with great care and attention, with a variety of dishes. Even on the night we spent camping, Moses cooked everything to perfection, making us feel at home. The portions and variety of dishes were also generous.
You can ask for Goodluck, Zepha, and Moses, and you certainly won't regret it.
We were moved when we said goodbye.
