  So where do I start... maybe most important in advance: you can feel how these guy change their communication as soon as they got your money. I‘m a girl travelling solo through Africa atm and for them I was actually the „space-filler“ wherever a seat was free in a car. So when I had to change the group and car at the second day I had to wait all alone in a camp in the middle of nowhere until 11 am, when the other guide finally picked me up (in a kind of unfriendly way and without introducing himself or saying sorry for the delay). However, this car turned out as a closed group of french people and as they preferred to only communicate in french I couldn’t really interact with them for the next three days. Also the guide would let me constantly feel that he didn’t really care about me and in summary he was talking a maximum of 2-3 sentences to me during this whole trip. The last day we left Ngorongoro at 12 already bc some of them needed to be at the airport at 4pm. Once arrived at the airport and as soon as the others left, the driver wanted to make more money out of this situation (a girl alone and tired at the airport) and tried to charge me a further amount of money to bring me back. To sum up I felt uncomfortable the whole trip. The agency didn’t value your time and money at all and I was just happy when we drove back to Arusha early. Wouldn‘t recommend this trip - at least not for solo travellers.

  Safari Soles is a local safari tour operator based in Arusha, Tanzania. My wife and I went on our first Safari in July 2019, and I really had no idea about the best way to go about booking. What I quickly learned is that there are plenty of western based operators who will charge you a small fortune. Now, don’t get me wrong, they have a place and I am sure there are plenty of people willing to pay a premium for the perceived dependability of a company based in LA, New York, London etc. I say ‘perceived’ because, in the end, I had such good service from Safari Soles, that I really began to question how much value those big companies really add. Just my opinion, your mileage may vary. We booked a 4 day, 3 night safari with a guide and a cook. We camped which was excellent. We went to Tarangire National Park, The Serengetti and finally the Ngorongoro crater. If you need a little more comfort, Bryson and the Safari Soles team can arrange lodges instead of camping for an extra fee. It was truly amazing, I didn’t know what to expect but this trip exceeded my expectations is every way. Our booking covered the 1 for transfers to and from JRO airport, the first and last night in a hotel in Arusha (we were given a choice of 3) the services of an English speaking driver/guide (who had the sharpest eyes and spotting skills imaginable) our cook (who also helped with camp set-up and breakdown) 3 meals each day, campsite fees, and park entry fees. Only tips and souvenirs were extra. Bryson also added a short shopping tour of Arusha on our last morning. Bryson and Safari Soles are super-dependable and trustworthy. We paid a 10% by Western Union (for which Bryson proactive emailed me his passport and ID cards for identity verification, we then paid the balance in cash (US$ in new bills are required everywhere in Tanzania) when we arrived. It feels really good to be putting money directly into the hands of local companies and not have fat margins skimmed off by middlemen. For me, this is really important. Go on a safari and see these magnificent animals, it was wonderful.

  Unforgettable Safari experience in Tanzania!! Thanks to Safari Soles we had the best safari-experience we could imagine! On our 4-day “Touch of Wilderness” we visited Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, we saw all the big five and everything was best organized. In the planning phase we had very good contact with Bryson by email, he provided correct info about price, quality and possibilities for the accommodations and together we designed our perfect private safari. Special thanks also to our driver/guide Mohamed, his very good driving and excellent knowledge of the wildlife made our stay and tour more than memorable!!! Imagine, a tasteful lunch with a good glass of wine in the middle of the Serengeti....we will never forget...This amazing safari arranged by Bryson and his team. Thank you so much for everything Safari Soles!!I highly recommend this brilliant company! Asante sana!
