"We were lucky enough to travel for two weeks to Tanzania with this company. The staff were amazing – everyone from the director to the driver was friendly, helpful, and extremely efficient. The team worked with us to achieve our needs and desires, and the Southern tour was exactly what we wanted. We visited Selous Game Reserve, Kilwa Seaside, and Mikindani Bay. The accommodations were excellent, and we felt safe despite initial concerns about paying a deposit to an unknown company. We highly recommend this company for a trustworthy and rewarding experience."

"Our safari was great. The operator was very helpful during the planning process and accommodated our requests, such as changing the beginning city of the tour and adding side trips. Most importantly, the company provided us with a wonderful guide, Huruma, whose English was great, and whose knowledge of the area and animals was vast. He made the whole trip a fantastic experience. My cousin, who lives in Tanzania, was very impressed with Huruma. If I were going again, I would ask specifically for him. Many thanks to this safari operator. I would do it again with them in a heartbeat."

"Just a few thoughts about our recent safari tour. Despite the initial pricing problem, I must say that the whole tour was very enjoyable, although not cheap. Very good and professional was the tour planning and the perfect logistics with dedicated personal involvement of Mwanaid. The transit hotels in Nairobi and Arusha were good and met the expected standard. The 'Kigongori Mobile Camp' was good, and all of us enjoyed the stay. This was also due to the pleasant camp crew and their personal touch. This includes our driver, John, who proved to be very experienced in finding the animals. The category 'luxury camp' is probably a bit on the high side, but we enjoyed it very much. 'Katavi Palahala' camp was definitely more on the luxury side. Management and staff were pleasant, and together with the good driver, made our stay a success. In both camps, we had the privilege to be more or less the only guests, so all the attention was directed to us. Lupita Island Resort was a memory of colonial luxury days – beautiful, different, and enjoyable. The resort management was professional, and the accommodation was something to remember. I also like to mention the well-organized air services and their experienced pilots. The good variety of food and drinks in all camps was plenty and tasty. All in all, a safari tour to remember, especially all those people who made it a success. Our special thanks go to Mwanaid."

"Being with a smaller operator was great because we were in a vehicle by ourselves. Our guide, Antoine, and our cook, Abou, were excellent. Antoine was very knowledgeable and experienced about the different game parks we traveled to. Abou is an excellent cook and very personable. The food was tasty, healthy, and hearty – we were never hungry. The sales department was the low point. Our sales rep was not timely with all the information we needed to prepare for the trip. For instance, I didn’t know the safari started in Arusha until after several discussions about the itinerary. Had I known, I would have booked tickets to Kilimanjaro instead of Dar Es Salaam. All that being said, we ended up having a great time."Operator Response: "We thank Samuel for his feedback and are pleased that he had an enjoyable safari. We will ensure all clients are aware of the start point of their safari in the future."

We spent a week traveling with this tour company—three and a half days on safari in the Northern Circuit of Tanzania and three days exploring Zanzibar. They arranged the entire safari and accommodation in Zanzibar on our behalf, custom-made to our itinerary, at a cut-rate price. We couldn’t find a better package deal anywhere, and the services they offered were superb. The safari guide was knowledgeable and skilled, and we had our own private jeep. The accommodation exceeded expectations, and the pre-arranged transfers at the airports proved to be reliable. A brilliant service for a brilliant price. Highly recommended!

I loved that Wonders of Creation Tours & Safarissent us a notebook full of useful information about our trip, along with a book of the animals of Tanzania, to get us excited about our journey. I felt like we were informed about what to pack and what we needed document-wise, and I felt that the staff at Deeper Africa were available to help us in anyway.The guides and accommodations were outstanding! Our tents were comfortable with beautiful furnishings and linens, comfortable beds, and gorgeous bathrooms. Each tent had a front porch, providing a lovely place to view the terrain and wildlife and to have morning coffee. The animals were amazing, as were the people of Tanzania who worked at the camps! Our guides were extremely knowledgeable, bright, and entertaining! Trip of a lifetime.

"They are a very professional and organized company. I was in communication with Mwanaid for many months prior to the trip, and she was always prompt and helpful in answering my many questions. Our driver-guide was excellent, spoke very good English, and made our trip very pleasant. I would recommend this company to others looking for a great safari."

"Our safari was all that we could have hoped for and more, and the operator fulfilled everything they promised for our tour according to the trip plan we devised with them through email communications ahead. We felt very well taken care of the entire 10 days we were out on safari, and their careful planning was evident in how smoothly and effortlessly the safari unfolded. As for our guide, we feel incredibly fortunate to have had Huruma as our guide. He made sure that each day’s game drive was planned to give us the most time to see the animals and landscapes at their best. He also took time to discuss what options we had so that some spontaneity could be included if that was our preference. Not only is he extremely experienced and knowledgeable about the wildlife and the park habitats, but he has keen eyes for spotting animals and a keen sense of the subtle behavioral cues that indicate impending activity on the plains. Should we be fortunate enough to visit Tanzania again, we would happily use them again, and we highly recommend this company to others."

"I have made a safari with this operator in Arusha – the tour was great, and the operator was very good."

"I made a lot of inquiries into Tanzanian tour agencies and found this operator. They were patient and professional in handling my requests, and my safari/mountain trek confirmed their excellence. A wonderful experience!"
