    We had an amazing safari day trip with Oldbeast Vacations. Victor was very kind and patient, making sure everything went smoothly from start to finish. Communication was excellent the whole time, he was very responsive. We really felt that we are in good hands and you can tell he truly puts his heart into his work. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a reliable and caring team to organize your safari!

    What a truly unforgettable day in the heart of nature! Our one-day safari through Selous Game Reserve gave us memories we’ll carry forever. We were beyond lucky to spot all of the Big Five the powerful lion , mighty buffalo , majestic elephant , elusive leopard, and even the incredible hippo in its natural habitat. The reserve was teeming with life — from elegant giraffes and playful zebras to colorful birds and other wildlife we never dreamed we’d see so close. Every moment felt like magic. A huge thank you to our exceptional guide and driver, Fidelis. His deep knowledge, keen eye, and passion for the wild made this experience not only exciting but deeply meaningful. We felt safe, inspired, and completely in awe. Selous, you’ve touched our hearts — wild, raw, and breathtakingly beautiful. We’ll be back.

    What a truly wonderful company! From the moment I reached out to inquire about several day trips in and from Zanzibar, the communication was consistently clear, friendly, and prompt. I booked the Blue Safari in Zanzibar, and it was such a memorable experience. Our boat driver and guide were incredibly kind, making sure we felt safe, comfortable, and fully immersed in the beauty of the tour. I also went on the Nyerere/Selous Safari day trip from Zanzibar—and wow, it exceeded all my expectations. The guide and driver at the game reserve were simply outstanding. Although I sadly forgot their names, I’ll never forget how attentive and thoughtful they were. I mentioned wanting to see giraffes, and every time they spotted one, they stopped to let me fully soak in the moment. Their kindness, patience, and passion for the wildlife made the experience even more special. They even treated us to snacks and a delicious lunch right in the heart of the park. I would absolutely book with this company again—and again. If you're considering it, don’t hesitate. They truly care about making your trip unforgettable.

  • Fantastic 14-Day Safari Trip – North Tanzania & Zanzibar

    From the very first request for a quotation to our return flight home, everything was perfectly arranged by Mwanne Arts and our amazing driver/guide Paul. Paul is a highly skilled, calm, and professional guide who truly goes the extra mile to make your game drives unforgettable. He’s not only passionate about wildlife, but also genuinely helpful—even supporting other guides and organizations on the road. Thanks to him, we saw many animals we’d never seen before and learned so much about them. One of the highlights was visiting an authentic Maasai tribe, where we were dressed in traditional clothing and joined in their dances. We also took a guided hike at Lake Natron with a Maasai guide to see flamingos up close—an unforgettable experience. The accommodations were stunning, each carefully chosen to enhance the safari mood. Imagine zebras and other wildlife walking right outside your tent or lodge! The food was excellent too, with delicious local dishes served with warm hospitality. We can’t recommend the hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti enough—absolutely magical. From the breathtaking views to the champagne landing and bush breakfast, every detail was perfect. Plus, professional photos from the experience were emailed to us for free! Everywhere we went, we were met by friendly local and Maasai people who made us feel truly welcome. Their kindness and generosity made a big impact on our trip. In short, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. If you're planning a safari, go with Oldbeast Vacations, ask for Paul as your guide, and your holiday is guaranteed to be unforgettable!

  • Unforgettable Safari Experience in Tanzania!

    We had a fantastic tour through Tanzania, expertly organized by Mwanne in close consultation with us. No question was ever too much—she responded quickly, clearly, and professionally every time. Upon arrival at Arusha Airport, we were warmly welcomed by our guide and driver, Peter Malley. He was outstanding throughout the journey—knowledgeable, engaging, and always going above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable experience. From witnessing a cheetah with her cubs to seeing over 200 lions (many with cubs!)—and the ultimate highlight: a leopard in a tree with cubs and its prey—it was like a scene out of a nature documentary. We were also thrilled to see zebras, elephants, giraffes, wildebeests, and so many more animals. The absolute highlight? A breathtaking balloon ride over the Serengeti at sunrise, followed by a magical bush breakfast. A once-in-a-lifetime experience! All in all, it was an unforgettable trip that exceeded all expectations. Highly recommended!
