    still remember the first picture of African it amazing how wildlife moves example wildbeest how predator hunts prey it's amazing yellow grass, broken only by flat-topped acacia trees and the odd strolling giraffe, all set beneath the dome of a perfect blue sky. Well here’s the good news – it really does exist. Tanzania is most amazing place where you will forget all your stress and you will enjoy also many activities example materuni and coffee tour my kids really enjoy we did 7 day but it was not enough next year we will plan another safari with Serengeti African Tours

    Fantastic safari with Serengeti African Tours All was perfectly organized, reviewed to fit with our needs and wishes. Easy communication with Lucas when organizing. We asked for a French speaking guide and David was amazing. He knows very well about animals and vegetation. He knows how to find animals even the most difficult to find! We spent 6 days together and become like a family. I highly recommend!!!

    Amazing safari tour operator in Tanzania Lucas at Serengeti African Tours is excellent at putting together tailor made safaris. He is patient and responds quickly on WhatsApp. I had 8 quotes before settling on final tour! It surpassed expectations for the whole group (family of 5, 3 adult kids 24-29). Our guide David was outstanding with excellent English & knowledge of the Serengeti. His driving was incredible on the challenging tracks and he got us as close to everything. He was in constant radio contact with other guides which meant we didn’t miss a thing when there was animal action nearby & it was lovely that everyone knew him & greeted him warmly. We were well looked after, our recommended lodges & camps were perfect. I was worried about using a local company with no affiliation to ABTA or similar but was assured by Safari Bookings that all their listed companies are vetted/trustworthy. I would book again with Serengeti African Tours without reservation. They are a first class tour company & it was invaluable having direct contact with the organizer with local knowledge. Thank you Lucas & David for giving us the trip of a lifetime…

    Excellent 6 day safari - Serengeti and Ngorogongo We went on a 6 day safari to Serengeti, Tarangire, lake manyara and Ngorogongo National parks which was fantastic. Our guide James was very knowledgeable and friendly, and our chef Samin cooked some amazing food. The safari was very well organised and the tents were very comfortable. We saw all the big 5, plus much more, and James was very patient to give us time to see the different animals. Overall would highly recommend Serengeti African tours

    Super experience and service from beginning to end! I would highly recommend Serengeti African Tours and would use again if in the region. The communication and service was excellent, Lucas responded to all our queries in a timely fashion and provided comprehensive information it was one of the reasons we choose this company out of the initial 3 that we contacted during the initial planning stages. We had a fabulous experience and were so pleased we went with Serengeti African Tours. It truly was an experience of a life time, friends back home are so amazed at the photo's I managed to take of the animals as well as the places we stayed and the food. The service at all the lodges and tented camps were also excellent.

    We wanted to thank Serengeti African Tours and our incredible guide Lucas for an unforgettable 6-day safari in Northern Tanzania! As a family with 2 children, we felt comfortable and well cared for the entire time. With Lucas knowledge and experience, we were able to go directly to the best locations at the best time of day for wildlife viewing. The big animals were numerous and spectacular, but Lucas took us beyond the Big 5 and was able to help us identify nearly 100 bird species as well! When our guide wasn’t expertly driving us around remote dirt roads in the Serengeti, he was serving us hot meals, entertaining the kids, or fixing our logistical problems. For example, I left my camera battery charger behind at the hotel in Arusha. Lucas had another company car pick it up and deliver it to us on safari the next day! Huge thanks to SOT and our elite guide for making out family trip 5 stars. I highly recommend this conservation-minded, operated tour agency.
