Tour guides where impeccable we had omar and fidelis and they always made sure we got the best pictures and saw all the animals and explained so well. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day can’t recommend enough.

5.00Wonderful time spent in this park. Our guide Moise and our driver Felix really did. The explanations and their knowledge are a real plus! And what a good mood! We saw a lot of animals, it was magical. The meal is simple but clean. And the plane transfer from Zanzibar is very well organized! I highly recommend!

5.00Wow what a day! Everything was very well organised from the start to the return back to the hotel. Our tour guide Yohana was amazing! His knowledge of the animals and the land was fantastic! The jeeps are well designed so everyone has a great view. Simply a must do trip if you are visiting Zanzibar

5.00My son and I (9 years old) went together for a 1 day safari from Zanzibar. It was a great adventure. Everything is well organized (flight, cars, photos, beverages in cars). The crew (drivers and photographer) are really experienced. We managed to see all the animals that we could see (giraffe, elephants, zebras, lions, buffalo, boar and hippo). On top of that our guide was giving interesting talks all the time about the park and wildlife.
Unforgettable Tour

4.00The French-speaking guide is a real plus, it has provided a lot of explanations, which is very pleasant. During the day, we had the chance to see many animals: zebras, giraffes, lionesses, elephants... I think for a full-day Safari it’s good but there are more beautiful landscapes in other parks. I was shocked by the hippo pool which offers them little space and is not natural. And lunch is not qualitative.
