Amazing! - From 20th till 24th January we went with our family 5 days on Safari. Our guide Ali (we could call him Ali baba) was really nice to spend those days with. He had a lot of knowledge, knew exactly where we had to be to see all the special animals and did everything in his power to give us the time of our lives. He learned us a lot about the animals. We also had chef Adari with us, who was very, very kind as well. His food was great and to be honest: we missed it after the safari! We are very grateful that we were able to spend these days together with them and that we could see animals we've never seen before and breathtaking nature. It was a fantastic experience and we will never forget!

Great time with Dancing Simba Safaris - It was such a great experience to do that 5 days Safari! The national parks were beautiful and we saw so many animals (many very close). Impressive. Our guide was perfect, such a big knowledge and so kind and always saw every animal already from far. The three lodges we stayed in were also a good choice. We are also happy to get to know that Dancing Simba Safaris belongs to a local owner. We would always book with this company again and also recommend it to friends. Next time we bring our camera, not our phones, to take photos.

Awesome experience - Our camping safari was truly an unforgettable adventure. I went with my girlfriend, and while the campsites weren’t the most modern or spotless, that’s exactly what you sign up for on a real camping safari in the African wilderness, the lodge however was good. The organisation was excellent — everything went smoothly from start to finish. Our Guide Abdul and the whole team were extremely kind and professional, and the food was surprisingly good too. We were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five plus many other animals. At one camp, zebras wandered around us during the night! There’s a lot of driving involved, sometimes on very rough roads, especially between Ngorongoro and Serengeti, but every bit of it was worth it.

All beautiful - We had an unforgettable experience. Our guide James and from the Sekela office pampered us throughout the holiday. They were super helpful and ready to give us immediate feedback to requests and / or needs. The chef who was made available to us always prepared very good meals. In short, everything perfect

Great experience tailored exactly how we wanted it! - We reached out to many different companies and we are so happy that Dancing Simba was the one we ended up choosing- the experience with them was incredible! To start, the customer service was remarkable, they answered all of our questions and were patient with our requests, allowing us to make a Safari tailored exactly to us. They also kept in contact throughout the Safari and were flexible with our itinerary when we wanted it. We loved our driver and guide “Bulldozer”, who was very knowledgeable and charismatic. Not only was he amazing at spotting animals and explaining everything we saw, he was also good fun for our 5 day trip. The cook Yusuf alias ” Mshikadau” also did an excellent job. He worked hard to prepare all our meals, sometimes getting up very early to do so, and his food was creative and delicious. All in all we would definitely recommend this company and we are extremely happy with the experience!

Unforgettable Safari and Fantastic Guys - The guys at Dancing Simbas are young, prepared and punctual. We did 5 days of Safari and had a great time. I recommend to everyone our incredible guide Ali: he was super professional, attentive and with his experience and knowledge of the parks he managed to make us spot all the big five! Special thanks also to the fantastic Bulldozer, the driver of the other jeep in our group, who was able to entertain us with his liveliness and sympathy. Finally, thanks to David, the owner, always smiling and great at organizing everything impeccably. Keep it up!

Fabulous experience - It was my first safari experience. We were 4 adults , and booked Luxury Safari for 6 days - 5 nights. The Safari trip went as we expected, the accommodations, the safari and the safari guide, from the moment we arrived in Arusha , until they dropped us off at the airport. Our Safari guide “Bulldozer” was nice and very knowledgeable about the animals and nature in general. His driving skills were really good and positive mindset. All in all , he made our trip special, he was a friend more than a safari guide. Big Thanks to you, Bulldozer!! Regarding the vehicle, I’m not sure if all Safari vehicles have air conditioners, but ours didn’t have one. In addition, we had two vehicles issues but they were solved in a few hours. I trust this is comments on the Safari vehicle, but the “Dancing Simba” need to pay attention to this matter. We were fine with spending a few hours fixing the car , but others would not accept this. I would like t highlight that the vehicle issues are not our Safari guide issue. I claimed this issue to David “ Dancing Simba’ manager” so he apologized to all of us at the end of the Safari and he offered a free ride from Zanzibar airport to our accommodation in Nungwi. He saved us 65$ All in all , the Safari experience was great , and I highly recommend “Dancing Simba” Once again, thanks a lot to you , David and Bulldozer!!

Serengeti dreams never die - A huge thank you to all the Dancing Simba crew for creating many special moments to make our Tanzania experience unforgettable. A special mention in particular to Owen & Yaya for excellent personalised care and attention to detail along with their outstanding attitude! Bulldozer too made our safari extra special with his incredible experience and knowledge and a great understanding of different nationalities and cultures, including the big 5 and the ugly 5!! 😄 Raymond and Julius were excellent cherries on a well iced cake. Thanks to the crew we had a thoroughly enjoyable safari experience with some good sightings of the African wildlife including observing a pride of lions in hunting mode, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippos, wildebeest, antelopes, gazelles, hyenas, lions and many others in close proximity. All made extra special with a great group for company from Germany & Estonia who we can now count as good friends!!
