  Our safari in Tanzania was so much more than a trip – it was a deeply moving experience that fascinated us, touched us emotionally, and will stay with us forever. Even now, we look back on these days with gratitude, awe, and a big smile on our faces. The 5-day safari through Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara was absolutely breathtaking. Each park had its own unique character and beauty. Seeing these incredible animals in their natural habitat – free, wild and unfiltered – was something words can hardly describe. Every game drive felt special, every sighting like a gift. It was raw, real and unbelievably beautiful. But one of the most special parts of this journey has a name: Richard. Our guide was truly exceptional. His warm personality, great sense of humor and incredibly extensive knowledge about wildlife, nature and Tanzania made this safari extraordinary. You could feel his deep love for his job in every single moment – and that passion was absolutely contagious. We laughed a lot, learned so much and felt completely taken care of the entire time. When our luggage did not arrive upon arrival, Richard immediately took responsibility for the situation and helped us in the most supportive and caring way imaginable. He stayed calm, reassured us and did everything he could to assist us – far beyond what one could expect. We are incredibly grateful for that. When our time together came to an end, we were honestly very sad. Saying goodbye to Richard was not easy at all. In such a short time, you really grow close – and that connection, along with these memories, will stay with us forever. The organization Nkollo Safari Tours also deserves the highest praise. From the very beginning, communication was excellent. Mercy was absolutely outstanding – always reachable, incredibly kind and attentive. She regularly checked in with us, asked how we were doing, if everything was okay, and took care of any concerns we had. You don’t feel like a customer – you feel genuinely cared for. The accommodations were mostly fantastic. The first hotel, Njiro Climax, wasn’t entirely to our taste, but that is probably a matter of personal preference. Eileen’s Trees Inn was wonderful – delicious food, extremely friendly and attentive staff, beautiful and clean rooms, and a lovely property overall. The overnight stays in the camps inside the national parks were an absolutely unforgettable experience. Both Tukaone Hembe Camp and Safari Haven Migration Camp completely exceeded our expectations. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, the food was excellent, and sleeping in these unique tents in the middle of nature was simply magical. We never expected to enjoy it this much – it was authentic, peaceful and truly special. Our final night at Njiro Legacy was also a great experience and a perfect way to end the trip. The 6th day, including the Materuni Waterfalls, coffee tour, and hot springs, was beautiful and very interesting. Looking back, however, we would personally recommend doing this tour at the beginning of the trip. After the intense and unforgettable safari experiences, we almost wished we had added another safari day instead. The hot springs themselves are visually stunning, but the atmosphere there felt a bit uncomfortable at times, as we felt watched and frequently approached. Perhaps we were just unlucky that day – but we wanted to mention it honestly. The Maasai village visit is something we personally would not book again. While the people were friendly and you do get a small insight into their culture, our group was intentionally separated during the visit, and the sales pressure afterward felt uncomfortable and unauthentic. The aggressive selling and the way money was handled left us with a strange feeling. For us, it is not a must-do if we were to give recommendations. That being said, none of this takes away from the safari itself. The safari days were absolutely once-in-a-lifetime experiences. The wildlife, the landscapes, the emotions, the laughter – these memories will stay with us forever. A heartfelt thank you to Richard, Mercy, and Nkollo Safari Tours for creating a journey that we will carry in our hearts for the rest of our lives. If you are considering a safari in Tanzania: book it – and book it exactly like this.

• Different every day!

  Wow, just wow! What a lifetime experience. The drive, the landscapes, the wildlife! We are a family of 3 , parents and 21yo son. Our driver Vincent knew the answer to every question, could identify every plant and animal and knows the trails like the back of his hand. We saw everything on our wish list thanks to his expertise. How he drives for so many hours a day, so safe, and so cheerful, is amazing. The lodges were a great expertise too, each one different - the tented Lodge was my favourite. This was not only a dream trip, but one of the most educational expeditions I've ever done, everyday a new adventure and different habitat - thanks again to the wonderful Vincent !

  We arrived at Arusha’s Airport and our fantastic guide, named Ringo, picked us up to start our adventure. We saw Lake Manyara NP, Ngorongoro NP, Serengeti NP and Tarangire NP. The parks were absolutely fantastic, in particular Serengeti and Ngorongoro where Ringo skillfully managed to find all the “big 5”, as well as many more species. The accommodations were beautiful, in particular Moyo Tended Camp, immersed in wild nature. Our guide Ringo was so kind and very careful to make us feel comfortable and happy during our journey. Thanks a lot! Matteo & Rebecca

  Brilliant safari with Nkollo tours organised brilliantly and the trip went so smoothly and we saw all the animals we could ever have wanted to so close it was amazing. Vincent our tour guide was brilliant and so knowledgeable it bought everything to life for us. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to do a safari in Tanzania, particularly if like us you don't really know where to start in terms what to look for. Allan was brilliant with all of the organising and logistics prior and always responded so fast to any questions. It certainly was as promised the trip of a lifetime.

  Our recent safari adventure in Tanzania with Nkollo Tours and Safaris was nothing less than extraordinary! From the time we arrived to the final goodbyes, every detail was handled with professionalism, warmth, and a genuine passion for showing the beauty of Tanzania. Tour Operator Allan was outstanding from the start— responsive, informative, and incredibly helpful during the planning stages. He prepared the itinerary perfectly to fit our interests, making sure we experienced the best of Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire. Allan’s attention to every minute detail and commitment to customer satisfaction gave us peace of mind every step of the way. Our driver and guide Emmanuel was the heart of the journey. Friendly, knowledgeable, and with an exceptional ability to spot wildlife from miles away, Emmanuel brought the safari to life. He knew every road, every watering hole, and had endless stories .Thanks to him, we saw the Big Five and learned so much about local culture and conservation efforts. The accommodations arranged by Nkollo Tours ( Moyo Tented Camp at Serengeti and Country Lodge Karatu )were clean, comfortable, and often set in stunning locations. Meals were great and always served with a smile. The entire trip felt personal, immersive, and seamless. If you're looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and passionate tour operator for your Tanzanian safari, look no further than Nkollo Tours and Safaris. Allan and Emmanuel made this a once-in-a-lifetime experience we’ll never forget. Highly recommend — 5 stars all around!

  Incredibly beautiful experience in Tanzania's national parks. Everything was perfectly organized by the local organizer and the reliability was better than in many places in Europe. Highly recommended.

  We had the adventure of a lifetime with our family and friends, exploring four wonderful parks: Serengeti, Tarangire, Manyara, and Ngorongoro Crater. Joseph, our guide, expertly navigated the sometimes rough roads and tracks, ensuring our comfort. He had an exceptional talent for finding the best wildlife photo opportunities and planning ahead to avoid overcrowded areas. The accommodations, guest services, and meals were absolutely perfect, and the hospitality staff exceeded our expectations with their warm and helpful nature. The wildlife viewing was superb, featuring some unbelievable close-up encounters. From the initial inquiry to the final drop-off at the airport, the service was outstanding and offered great value for money. I highly recommend Nkollotours. Allan and his team demonstrated excellent organizational skills, and Joseph’s patience and guidance were top-class all around!
