Incredible animals, and amenities! - I wanted to see all the animals in Tanzania without worrying about lodging, transportation or food. Zara set up EVERYTHING, and I never had to worry. My driver, Salehe, was awesome, and so knowledgeable about the animals and birds. Any bird he didn't know he could quickly identify with a book. When I mentioned a specific animal, he without fail found them for me. It was very impressive. I would recommend Zara to anyone who values convenience and comfort. I know there are cheaper options, but you pay to not worry and enjoy vacation. The lodging was stunning, the food was amazing, and the animals were out of this world. I never felt rushed or like I missed out. Also to note, I was by myself and I never felt overlooked for groups that might be larger and provide more tips. Everyone seemed to care about me having a great safari, and I felt safe and happy the whole time.

Unforgettable Safari In Tanzania - You can never go wrong with Zara Tours - the words of our friends Jane & Marko, and it's the plain truth. Hamisi helped us craft an itinerary that had more days in Serengeti, included a visit to the hippo pool and a balloon safari. These guys did justice to the authentic African safari. Zara looked after all the aspects of the trip, from transport, accommodation, permits, fees and most crucially they provided the guide. Kitanga was amazing, he was so knowledgeable about everything on the safari and it was a pleasure to listen to him. His driving was careful and he handled the 4x4 Landcruiser like a pro. I would highly recommend going on safari with Zara Tours because they give back to local schools in Ngorongoro, where we were hosted. You will not regret going on safari with Zara Tours

Super Romantic Safari Vacation - Zara Tours delivered the most exciting and romantic safari ever. I find it hard to find the exact words to describe how amazing our trip was. It started with the smooth booking with Hamisi, he took time to understand what we wanted and then created an incredible itinerary. We were partnered with guide Musa, who is excellent in all aspects of safari. Such a careful driver, excellent in spotting wildlife and above all a likeable personality. His friendly and outgoing mature made him the perfect companion for the trip. We were very impressed by the quality of the lodges and camps booked. We were perfectly hosted in these exclusive places. We came in search a romantic vacation and we found it. Thank you Zara Tours for a job well done.

Exciting Adventure in Tanzania - This was one of the best trips we've ever taken as family. We enjoyed exploring the parks in the private Jeep with Musa our personal guide. He took us to Serengeti NP where we saw the great migration. Tarangire and Ngorongoro were also special as he knew the best spots for game watching. Food was exceptionally good in the lodges and take aways that we took with us for game drives. The key highlight was following the migration on a hot air balloon. This was awesome. The walk on Ngorongoro rim with an armed guide was also special. So exciting because being in the open jungle. I highly recommend Zara Tours

We had an amazing safari - This was our second trip with Zara Tours and it was fabulous. Perfectly organized from when we arrived in Tanzania, good hotels and camps and the best guide one could ask for - Bright. In all the parks we visited, he found animals so easily that we found it kind of extraordinary. We love birding and it was pleasant that he knew about all the species that we encountered. The evening walks around Ngorongoro crater rim were spectacular. We were impressed by the perfect synchronization of the route and stop over lodges. Everything arranged along the tour circuit and perfect for relaxation. Zara Tours will continue to be our operator of choice in Tanzania.
