The best African safari - Mambo! We are very grateful, everything was unforgettable for us from the first moment, the journey was awesome! Justin our guide taught us about the local wildlife no just watching animals, we learnt a lot also about the Tanzania culture.Thanks Justin, our professional guide, and all SafariBikeAfrica team for taking care of us,on our family holiday. We enjoyed it a lot in Tarangire, Manyara, Ngorongoro and 3 days in Serengeti, amazing and unforgettable:) We appreciate Justin our guide so much for driving us in the Land Cruiser,finding the best spots for photography,safe and skilled driver and knew how to maneuver the land cruiser to make sure I had the best spot for my photos,we saw cheetahs hunting a gazelle in Seronera and in Ngorongoro Crater we were lucky to see a rhinoceros cross in front of us.. The choice of Tented Camps and Lodges was perfect and the reality of the whole safari exceeded our expectations. Thinking of traveling next year to Uganda with them to see Gorillas. We can highly recommend travelling with them. Asante Sana team for making our dreams come true!!

Wonderful trip - We did a safari with Safaribike from January 1st. 2020 to January 9th 2020 and had a really wonderful time. We travelled as family, so we had our three children with us, aged 17, 15 and 12.
We visited Lake Natron, Lake Manyara, the Serengeti and the Ngorongo Conservation Area. Everything was perfectly organised. We first travelled with a big truck, which was great because we had a lot of space and a perfect view. Then we switched to a Land Cruiser.
The lodges and tented camps were very well chosen. All of them were really nice, very clean, with good food and very friendly people.
We did a couple of extra trips, like a bike trip in Mto Wa Mbu, a hiking tour at Lake Natron to a waterfall, a hiking tour at the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater and we visited some cultural tourism like visiting the Hadzabe and the Datoga. We found all this very good because it gave us the opportunity to become active and not only sit in the car.
We had 2 very nice guides and drivers: Justine and Mohamed. Both were really nice and did everything to make the safari an unforgettable journey.
We saw wonderful animals, lots of zebras and gnus, elephants, giraffes, lions a couple of times, chettahs with her babies, actually all the big five plus much more. Justine really knew where to find them and was in close contact with the other drivers.
What we found especially impressive was a herd of elephants – about 70 animals – with young ones - that passed our way and came extremely close to the car. It was a really impressive and peaceful atmosphere.
Justine and Mohamed were really good with the kids. They answered questions over questions, they introduced them to songs and music and even a dance – the children loved them.
What we especially liked was that Justine tried to match our individual wishes. E.g. he took us to a club in Arusha with a live DJ for New Year or a really nice typical restaurant. He also explained a lot about life in Tanzanzia, about the school system, the structure of the families, the food and everything we wanted to know (and we wanted to know a lot ☺) without ever loosing the patience. This way we did not only a safari to see the impressive animals and wonderful landscape but also had the chance to get a little insight into Tanzanian life.
Pepe is a local provider. It is a small company with personal support. We could always reach Pepe directly during our trip.
So we can highly recommend booking a safari with Safaribike. Pepe did a great job in organizing everything and Justine was a really good guide. Try to get him when visiting as a family.

DAY TRIP TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK - It was such an amazing experience me and my family when visited Tarangire national park with Safari Bike Africa, the guide was very good, smart and knowledgeable. We saw elephants, impala, ostrich, lions and many more. I recommend Safari Bike Africa for a comfortable and unforgettable experience.

Dire Experience with Safari Bike Africa - The initial hiring of the tour was tailor-made, with exquisite and immediate attention from Pepe, its boss, which made us trust the company. Trouble began at destination. In 10 days we had two Safari cars to which more inefficient, very old and without having passed their corresponding revisions. The 4X4 traction that left us trapped in nature parks twice (once in Serengeti and once in Taranguire, at night, in night Safari) having to be rescued was not working; the gas tank broke losing daily fuel; a wheel nearly went off, losing 3 of its 4 screws, with risk of accident; the seats were in bad condition and uncomfortable, etc. We asked Pepe for a solution with some proposals and he responded in very bad ways, with disrespect and threats to cancel the whole trip if we put a claim to him. On the other hand, our Initial Guide also did not appear on the first day, without warning, and instead we have had 2 different guides that I have to say have been wonderful (Fadhili and Valence), who suddenly had to face the route, without knowing well the details, in addition to playing mechanics, drivers and guides, all at once, with the consequent exhaustion that that implies and that inevitably affects their work and therefore the safari. A 10 for them, because thanks to them we were able to save the trip. In short, if you want to enjoy Africa, not lose activities, enjoyment time and do everything calmly and safely, I recommend NEVER hire the services of this company given the incompetence and unseriousness that Pepe offers its customers and its workers, in addition to selling you routes and cars impossible to realize.
