EXCELLENT Based on 125 reviews Troels Madsen2025-08-09Verified The trip was, in a word, great!! I went on safari in Africa for the first time in my life, and I feel like-why didn't I come here sooner! During the first few days of the game drive, our guide showed us animals that we didn't even know we were looking for. Lions, cheetahs, and rhinos - I have seen them all, and every time the guide has made the place more alive with funny stories. When I arrived in Zanzibar, I felt like I was in a different world - white sand beaches, clear blue water, and sunsets. The service of Northern Masailand Safaris is so smooth and professional that the entire trip was stress-free. Efsun M2025-08-08Verified Gorgeous Those seeking the ultimate experience in Tanzania's extraordinary landscape should definitely contact Northern Masailand Safaris. I extend my sincere gratitude to Northern Masailand Safaris for providing me with the most incredible experience in Africa. Nlena Conti2025-07-30Verified A unique blend of nature, animals, and culture...🐘🦣🦁🐆😱🫣 Every moment of our nine day safari was like a dream! In Tarangire and Serengeti, I saw amazing animals - from elephants🦣, lions🦁, and cheetahs🐆 to thousands of migrating wildebeest. When I reached the quiet beaches of Zanzibar, I felt like I was in another world. The forest and the sea - both forms are beautifully combined in this package. The team at Northern Masailand Safaris is exceptionally professional, and our guides were knowledgeable and courteous.☁️🌾🌿🌺🔥⛅ Aldimarina L2025-07-28Verified Wonderul trip I truly enjoyed my vacation. The safaris were colorful, and seeing the animals in their natural environment was fantastic. I highly recommend the organization and the guides. I'm returning full of energy and now have even more love and respect for our planet. Tanzania is a country with wonderful nature, but its greatest treasure is its people. rompfw k2025-07-24Verified Experienced guide and excellent planning My wife and I went on this trip in July, and what we saw is beyond description. Thousands of wildebeest are running together - an incredible sight! We saw a lot of animals. Our guide always knew where to go and when to stop - every moment I saw from the animals. The service was professional and on time. It's highly recommended! Ali Stone2025-07-20Verified The BEST Safari in Tanzania to enjoy with family This was my first time in Tanzania, and doing this Safari with Henry & his company was the best decision. My family and I received an outstanding service all around from him and everyone involved! The Safari experience was a DREAM. Our driver Rama was the best at seeing animals and driving us to make sure we got to see everything. We saw the "Big 5", including rhinos that are so hard to spot. The Lodges Henry picked for us for this trip were very comfortable, clean, safe, and the food was delicious always. During one of the days, we flew in a balloon (first time doing it in my life) and it was one of my favorite things of the trip!! We got to see all the animals of the savanna from the sky, we even say lions having their morning meal. The landing followed a celebratory brunch, the experience was awesome. We also had a day where we got to come closer to the community, learning about their wood carving, painting, how they implement bananas to make bear, how they prepare everything with the fruits and veggies they grow locally. It was such a magical and wholesome trip, that my immediate thought when it ended was that I wanted to do it all over again, with Henry and Northern Masailand Safaris. I'm definitely coming back soon to repeat this! Ziya Ç2025-07-20Verified Olağanüstü,çok güzel bir deneyim, büyük keyif The company was good. The route was very well planned. The hotels chosen were all very nice and beautiful. But Michael, both our driver and guide, was especially wonderful. Like a hunter, he spotted all the animals with his own eyes and showed them to us. I'd like to thank him and the company for working with him.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Ali Ezer2025-07-18Verified Harika şöförler Bütün gezi boyunca şöförlerimiz biz ne istersek onu yaptılar. Güvenli ve görsel açıdan güzel bir tur geçirmemizi sağladılar.Bilgi seviyeleri muazzamdı ve her sorumuza bilgili bir şekilde yanıt aldık. Çok memnunduk. Jasile M2025-07-16Verified Traveled solo, but never felt alone. I went on this safari alone but never felt alone in the compassionate attitude of the guide and the group. In the northern Serengeti, The diversity of animals was incredible - lions, elephants, zebras, and of course the wildebeest in the migration. My choice of luxury tented camp was comfortable, the food was great, and the service was excellent. It was the most peaceful and wonderful trip of my life. Donna D2025-07-11Verified Trip of a lifetime! Our group of 11 people went on safari with Northern Masailand Safaris arranged by tour operator, Henry. Henry was very accommodating through the entire planning process and the result was truly a trip of a lifetime. The trip included learning about the culture of the Maasi tribe and visiting Serengeti National Park, Tarangire National Park, and Ngorongoro park. Moses was the tour guide for my jeep, providing knowledgeable commentary about the animals. We did see the big 5. Accommodations ranged from a five star hotel (Arusha Gran Melia) to various camps where we were always warmly welcomed. This trip was fabulous and I highly recommend Northern Masailand.
