Great safari with Amiri the guide. Spotted the whole big 5!! - Made a great safari with tourcompass in cooperation with zara tours. This has really made a deep impression on us. Amiri the guide was really super. He taught us a lot about the land, the animals, customs, food. He was patient when I wanted to take another picture of the 100th elephant. And above all it was just very cozy. We look back on a super fun time in Tanzania thanks to Amiri and have fallen in love with the country and the lovely people!

Thank You ALEX, ROMARIO, FRED, JACKSON, HASSAN and Zara TEAM, FOR MAKING OUR HONEYMOON INCREDIBLE - We had the most amazing safari through Kenya and Tanzania with Zara Tours, and we cannot thank the team enough for making it such a seamless and unforgettable experience. The Kenyan portion of the safari was exceptionally well organized, and our guide Fred was outstanding.  The transfer to Alex, our Tanzanian driver, was seamless. We cannot praise Alex enough, he made our Tanzanian safari experience extraordinary. His knowledge of the wildlife, landscapes, and culture was outstanding, and he was always eager to share insights that made every game drive more meaningful. He worked tirelessly to track animals for us, often spotting them long before we could, and his passion and dedication were clear every single day. Beyond his guiding skills, Alex was warm, welcoming, and attentive. He always greeted us with kindness, ensured we had ample water, and made sure we were comfortable at all times. Thanks to him, we not only saw an incredible variety of wildlife but also gained a much deeper appreciation for Tanzania itself. In the final part of our journey, we were fortunate to be guided by Jackson and driven by Hassan. Both of them were incredible, very professional, insightful, and attentive.  Hassan tirelessly took photos of us to capture so many incredible moments, and he always had a big warm smile on his face. His kindness and enthusiasm made a wonderful difference in our final days of safari. Jackson, in particular, went above and beyond to advocate for us and ensured that we had the best possible experience. The stay at Osiligilai Maasai Camp was a perfect way to end our trip. we believe many travelers would truly enjoy including this in their safari experience. I would also like to leave a special word of thanks for Romario, our safari agent. From the very beginning, he was excellent in helping us organize this trip, always available to answer questions, provide guidance, and support us along the way. His professionalism, responsiveness, and dedication gave us a lot of confidence in the trip and made the entire process stress-free. We also greatly appreciate how Zara looks after their staff, including the Maasai people, and provides opportunities that allow guests like us to experience not only the beauty of the landscapes and wildlife, but also the warmth of the local culture and community. Finally, our gratitude goes to the Zara staff and to all the teams at the lodges, hotels, and camps we stayed at. The accommodations chosen for the Kenyan part of the trip were excellent, and the hospitality of the staff everywhere we stayed was remarkable. Overall, this safari was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and we are deeply grateful to Romario, Alex, Fred, Jackson, Hassan, and the entire team for making it so special. Best Regards  Mohammed hussain

Fantastic - Had a wonderful and very knowlegable guide Twaha. He not only knew all about the animals but also Masai culture (a masai told us he knows their culture really well) but also history of the country and Africa as a whole. Bonus we saw the big five and so much more😊

Safari Trip of a Lifetime - Thanks ZITA! - I got picked up at the airport by really friendly staff who even took me for a nearby brunch before the safari adventure started and that was such a nice way to begin the trip. From there it only got better. I stayed for one night in Highview, my coffee lodge room was incredible! The following day we started safari. Even with some rainy weather the guides worked so hard to make sure I saw my favorite animals like elephants, lions and zebras along with so many more. At Ikoma Wildcamp I did both a walking safari and a night drive and seeing lions up close in the dark was just unbelievable and something I will always remember. There were also so many moments outside the drives that made it special. The bush breakfast at Serengeti Safari Lodge was amazing, eating fresh food right out in nature. At Serengeti Wildbeast we had breakfast while watching the hot air balloons lift into the sunrise and it honestly felt magical. Every place I stayed including Highview Hotel, Ikoma Wildcamp, Serengeti Safari Lodge, Serengeti Wild Camp and Serengeti Wildbeast had the kindest staff who made me feel welcome from the start to the end. Between the animals, the food, the people and the lodges it was all perfect. Truly the trip of a lifetime.

Unforgettable experience in Safari - We came back from 6 days tour with family of 4. Our guide: Izack was VERY kind and knowledgeable. We were able to see 4 of big five many times except Rhino. 3 hotels were beyond expectations especially in Serengeti Safari lodge and Highview hotel. Food and their hospitality were excellent! The hotel gave my 80 years old father in law, accessible accommodation which treated him special. We all enjoyed Tanzania Safari tour with Zara.

Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti - We (father and son of 21 years) had 5 fantastic days together with our super good guide Hozza. 1 day in Tarangire, 1 day in Ngorongoro and 3 days on Serengeti incl. balloon tour. Hozza was really good at spotting the animals, and we saw the Big Five. Everything worked perfectly and very punctually. We had EN experience beyond usual, and so much more than we expected. EN very exciting trip FRA Serengeti to Karatu, which was outside the highway. Can definitely give Zara and Hozza our very best recommendation. Søren and Mogens Krogh Andersen, Denmark
