Best safari experience
This safari was honestly one of the best experiences of my life. Our guide, Solomon, was super friendly and knew everything about the animals and the parks. We saw lions, elephants, cheetahs, and even a leopard up close, pretty much every animal we were hoping to see and more. It was amazing to be so close to the animals even at the camps, and the views were unreal. The whole trip was really well organized, the lodges were super nice, and everything felt safe and easy. You can tell the team really cares about what they do, and it made the trip feel extra special. I can’t recommend them enough 10/10 would go again!

I can do it in one word….exceptional!
Amazing safari with Zohar Safaris! Lilian and her team leave no detail to chance. From the minute they picked us up at the airport, their attention to detail was exceptional. Guides, Derrick, Jeff, Solomon, and Nathan went above and beyond to ensure we saw as many animals possible…they are professionals! The camps/lodges were also great. Use Zohar for your adventure…you won’t be disappointed

Zohar was very responsive, professional, willing to please while being very friendly and informative
Zohar provided the ultimate, memorable family experience from start to finish! From the moment we began planning, they were responsive and attentive, offering multiple thoughtful options to help bring our vision to life.
Our guide, Daniel, was absolutely fantastic—deeply knowledgeable about the wildlife and landscape, and incredibly dedicated to making sure we saw everything we hoped to (and more!). He was always available, attentive to our needs, and made us feel safe.
Throughout the journey, Zohar made sure we were well cared for. Each hotel they selected was more beautiful and unique than the last—luxurious accommodations, excellent service, and delicious food every step of the way. Lillian and Rachel also stayed in touch consistently, ensuring everything ran smoothly and that we were happy and comfortable at all times.
This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and Zohar exceeded every expectation. Excellent value, top-notch service, and unforgettable memories. I highly recommend Zohar to anyone looking to bring their African Safari dream to life!

The best company !
Where to start? We're a young couple who've been traveling the world in search of new discoveries for the past 10 years. We always thought that, with the infinite riches of our planet, we'd never return to the same country twice... except this time! We've now traveled twice with Lilian's team, and each time the experience has been perfect. The team's professionalism, constant attention and kindness are second to none.
Our guide, Solo, is a real gem! His kindness, knowledge and passion for nature and animals made for a truly dream honeymoon. Every day was magical, and we felt like privileged guests.
Comfort was the order of the day: a huge private 4x4, details that made all the difference (blankets, fresh water, unlimited drinks), and lunches fit for a king (hot dishes, unlike others who settle for a simple sandwich).
We'd like to thank the entire Zohar African Safaris team for these unforgettable moments. If you're still hesitating between safari companies, I can guarantee that with Zohar, you'll never be disappointed. It's the best company, without a doubt!

Best tourism agency and tour guide
Zohar is just the most incredible tourism agency in Tanzania. Lilian and her crew will treat you extremely well, they are responsive, kind, gentle and caring all the time, they pay attention to every single detail to make your trip the best memories ever. All the hotels were we stayed as part of the safari package were excellent, the food was super good and a special THANK YOU to our amazing guide, Solomon, who is super kind, patient, cordial and has an immense knowledge about the national parks, animals and the national culture! We learned so much with him!
Zohar even helped us to plan our next destination’s details (Zanzibar), giving us recommendations of tours, etc. We highly recommend Zohar and their team for your vacations in Tanzania, you will not regret! Thank you once again, Lilian, Jackline, Solomon and Zohar’s team!

Amazing Travel Experience
The staff was conscientious and careful to help us coordinate our lodging options. The guide Solomon is professional and guided us to a rare sighting of hyenas hunting zebras. The homemade salad was well received by the group.Zohar is a trustworthy tour operator that you can choose with confidence! I will also recommend it to my friends.

Great experience!
Definitely recommended. Exceeded all expectations. Counselling during planning phase was very helpful, the trip went very smooth without any complications. We could enjoy our safari to the fullest.
And most important, we were able to see everything that Tanzania's wildlife can offer, including lion cubs, a baby leopard and even a baby rhino. We were also lucky to witness the migration of wildebeest through the Mara river.
Our guide Tom worked very hard to get us to see al this and was very knowledgeable. He knew when to be where! Definitely recommended as well.

Amazing, efficient and attentive!
I have dreamed about this trip my entire life and I could not be happier with the outcome!
From the beginning Lilian was very attentive and listened to all our requests. She came up with an itinerary that fulfilled all of our requests.
Once we arrived, it was effortless, the entire Zohar team was available to us to help us with any issues or questions we had.
I don’t know about other companies or guides, but Solomon is amazing!!! He got us to all the animals we wanted to see and then some! I just don’t have enough words to describe how good he is! Not only can he find the animals, he knows them all and can lecture on the biology of each species!!
I hope life gives me the chance to repeat this experience, if it does, I will definitely be calling them again.
Thank you for making this dream a reality!!

Responsive, friendly and organized
My experience with Zohar was outstanding….from the moment we started planning the trip with Lilian she was friendly and attentive….she helped guide us through planning for our trip to make it the very best experience. You never had to worry about anything….the moment you walk off the plane(make it through customs…which was easy) you are met by a professional driver. From that moment on you never have to worry about anything….in Zanzibar we had a gorgeous beach front room after that we started our Safari with Salomon ….he was the incredible and that man knew where the animals were ….we saw every animal on our list and some….the Safari camps we stayed at were very nice and the food was delicious….you have to visit …the people are so kind and happy.
We really researched and found Zohar to be the best value for your money…when you reach out to Lilian she will ask you what you want…..Five Star, in the middle or budget and she builds the trip off your answer. I was so happy with the trip I’m already planning the next one….people say coming to Africa is life changing and I can say “It was”!

Thank you Zohar team for an Unforgettable Experience
Going on a real African safari has been on my bucket list for decades. So, when we finally decided to go ahead with it, I spent a very long time searching for the best possible travel experience contacting and comparing many different companies. Zohar stood out from day one, initially thanks to how both Jacqueline at first and later on Lilian communicated with me. I had a million questions which were always answered promptly and with a lot of patience (as I do tend to go into a lot of detail 😊). This reassured me. Lilian adapted the itinerary to our wishes and did her utmost best to stay within the budget we had fixed for this trip. For every day of the tour, she proposed a selection of lodges to choose from.
We just came back yesterday from our 12 day vacation in Tanzania. The first 6 days were fully organized by Zohar after which we spent 5 nights in Zanzibar. Upon arrival, when we stepped out of the airport our safari guide (Solomon) was there waiting for us. When we got to the car we were presented with refreshing towels and fresh fruit juice. We also received water bottles with our names on to use during the safari.
As we arrived late at night, we had scheduled to take a day to relax and leave on safari on day 2. Both Lilian and Solomon took out time to come and see us in our lodge to give more detailed information and useful tips to make our safari experience as good as possible. I was very happy to be able to meet Lilian in person after having communicated with her by email for so long.
Over the next 4 days we visited Tarangire, Manyara and Ngorongoro National Parks and we also made a cultural village visit (Mto Wa Mbu) and an authentic Masai cultural visit. Solomon was with us every step of the way. He is extremely knowledgeable about nature, animals, local culture and was able to spot the wild life from miles away. He is also a very good and safe driver. We were truly impressed.
Our first game drive (Tarangire) happened to be on my birthday. I never mentioned this but somehow when we arrived at our lodge late afternoon, there was an ice bucket with a bottle of champagne with my name on the label and a card from Zoha waiting for me in our room. As if that was not enough, I also received a birthday cake + sing and dance after dinner by the staff of the lodge.
All along the 6 days Lilian and her team stayed in touch with us through a WhatsApp group that she created a few weeks before our departure. Before our departure Rachel was in touch with us through the group to share valuable tips on what to know and pack for the trip.
We spent our last night not too far from the airport to catch an early flight to Zanzibar the following morning. I really appreciate that Lilian took out time (on a Sunday) to come on see us personally to say goodbye even though she just returned from a very long drive and was really tired.
Conclusion: I never experienced this level of customer service and personal attention anywhere in my life. I have travelled a lot over the years (personal and professional) so I am quite qualified to compare. We will book with Zohar again for sure and I advise anybody reading this review to do the same, you will not regret it.
