    We had an absolutely amazing time on our 5-night safari — truly unforgettable! Everything was well-organized from start to finish, and the entire trip far exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Suleiman, was exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the local environment, wildlife, and culture. His passion for nature was evident, and he had an uncanny ability to spot animals from incredible distances. On top of that, he was warm, friendly, and made every game drive engaging and educational. We saw the Big Five and so much more, and every day brought a new highlight. The landscapes were stunning, the accommodations were comfortable, and we always felt safe and well taken care of. If you're planning a safari, I can’t recommend this company highly enough — and if you can, request Suleiman. He truly made this trip extraordinary.

  • A trip filled with so much laughter and many many memories

    Thank you to SG and Saluu for an amazing experience. My friend and I did not know what to expect with this trip but we truly felt safe and cared for in Saluu's presence and vehicle. He was cheerful and very knowledgeable and we appreciated the efforts made to find any and all animals. I was also delighted over the smaller details - a charging station and shelf, a fridge to keep our drinks and chocolate cool/cold, a picnic table and chairs, all of which heightened the experience. Thank you SG for these thoughtful details. To Saluu, my friend and I learned so much not just about the wildlife but also about forestry and the Tanzanian and Maasai cultures. I definitely recommend Supergame and of course, Saluu. They have shown to go above and beyond to make your Tanzanian experience a memorable one.

  • Amazing trip of a lifetime!!!

    What an amazing experience! My friend and I booked our trip through Natural World Safaris. We began our journey in early June at Kenya’s Masai Mara but we were eventually connected to SG during the Tanzania portion. Saluu was our guide and took us through the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara over the course of 5 days. We weren’t sure of what to expect but our experience far exceeded anything we could have expected. The wildlife, hospitality, food, and culture were truly memorable. The highlight was staying at Kati Kati tented camp in the Serengeti. The staff were super welcoming and emphasized environmental protection in all that they did. Saluu was immensely skilled as a driver as well as super personable & deeply knowledgable as a guide. With him, we were able to experience some amazing sights (stunning landscapes and glimpses of all of the Big Five!!) but also learn a great deal about Masai culture since he too is Masai. I would wholeheartedly recommend SG for a spectacular experience in Tanzania. Asante sana, SG and Saluu!!!
