Best Safari! - Visited this national park and had the best experience of my life. We saw all the animal excepts the leopards which the guide says mainly spotted at night. The guides were amazing! We went into an open air truck and saw the animals in their wild habitat. This place is truly beautiful! Definitely worth it! Be prepared for the rough roads which was also the highlight of my trip

A once in a lifetime experience - I just finished a Nyerere day safari through Zanzibar and it has been by far the most amazing trip I’ve ever experienced. Our guide Cleopa was the best guide I could have wished for: he was genuinely happy to be with our group, which included a small and very excited child. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind and helpful and made the whole experience incredible. We saw so many animals up close (about 50 lions, several cheetahs, leopards, rhinos…), he just made the safari magic happen! We’ll be forever grateful to Mbio Mbio Safaris and especially to Cleopa for this incredible experience.

An unforgettable safari experience with an awesome tour company - I wanted to leave this review as it was the best experience I have ever had. To start with the booking process was so easy, my agent David was always super helpful in answering all my questions and making suggestions. I was a little hesitant because I was travelling by myself so I wanted a secure company. From the moment I arrived everything was as planned, the pick ups, the drop off's, the experiences and my guide Sele went over his way to make my dreams come true in terms of wildlife spotting in Nyerere. He was always so worried about my comfort and happiness. I can never thank him enough for making it possible for me to have an undescribable experience. I will definitely recommend this to all my friends. Asante Sana from the bottom of my heart Mbio Mbio Safaris.

Perfect organisation, friends and knowledgeable guide - In short: I couldn't recommend more this tour and this company. This was our honeymoon and everything was like a dream, we enjoyed every minute of it. Now some more details to help you choose: Finding a safari is hard, we had hundreds of options, and I'm really happy we found Mbio Mbio. The communication through WhatsApp with Hilary before booking was great, he answered all our questions really patiently (and we had many as it was our first time in Africa). We took the mid-range version, which to be honest when we saw the accommodations looked more like luxurious to me, all the places we stayed were beautiful. Of course it's a question of budget, but if you can afford it I would recommend the mid-range option, because safari are exhausting, and slipping in a real bed in a beautiful tent or bungalow at the end of the day is magical.The tour was perfectly organised, from the pick up to the airport, the first night of hotel in Arusha, to the briefing each morning and evening to agree on times and what was next, the communication from every member of the staff was just perfect. Our guide was really friendly, knowledgeable of the parks and animals, and a really good and safe driver. He was always finding the best spot to see perfectly all animals, and we saw them all! The food at lunch is also really tasty and always plenty. The company has their own cook and one is coming with you to prepare 5-6 different pots for the car (we were 6 in the car so you can imagine it's a lot). So you will always have plenty and tasty food. For the morning and evening it will depend of the range you chose. If you confirm budget I think you also eat this food, which is really good, but we went for mid-range so we got the food from the accomodation, which to be honest could be Michelin restaurant. For the payment it went really smoothly, we paid 20% upfront my card online (a bit scary since we didn't know anything at the time but don't worry everything went well with them) and the rest in cash when arriving, so you will need to change dollars. To summarise, just go for it, you won't regret it, and I know the mid-range might seem like a lot of money, but it's great value when you live it, and not that expensive for what it is and the beauty of the parks and accommodations.

Top Safari at Nyerere from zanzibar - Mbio Mbio safari was an exceptional company to work with to book our African Safari. David answered our many questions and gave advice so we could set an itinerary exactly as we wanted it. Our guide Wilson Kihiyo was warm, welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. He patiently ensured we got to see every single animal we had dreamed about and then many more. We learnt so much about the animals and the country. It was the trip of a lifetime, one we will never forget. We loved it so much we are planning to come again. Thanks again Wilson for making our trip so special.

Excellent Tanzanian Safari - A very good friend and myself did a 7 day safari through Sekop safaris recently and could not have imagined a better safari experience. The sights were amazing, the accommodation was second to none and our driver David was fantastic; knowledgable, personable and will become one of your best mates garunteed. Go with Seko safaris they are the BEST and you won't find a better time in Tanzania

Best Selous safari - Reliable and excellent service! We booked our safari to Selous with Victor from Seko safaris couple of months before we came to Tanzania. We are delighted. Victor was very accommodating and made sure we had a great experience. Our guides Nico and Alifa were truly amazing. We cannot recommend them enough. They were very knowledgeable and helpful. We shared a lot of laughters with them. Very friendly staff! Thank you Seko safaris!

Ecellent Safari - Excellent and fast communication through WhatsApp. Very good service with pick-up and drop-off at the airport. The safari and service exceeded our expectations. Our guide Jacob went over and above to give us a great safari experience. Most likely he was the happiest when we caught the last one of the "the big five". During the week we had a great local food experience thanks to chef Matthew.
