Simon went out of his way to personalize each experience for his guests.
5/5

Simon was extremely personable and an amazingly informative guide. He went out of his way to make certain his guests will see the animals as close as possible. He was very knowledgeable about the animals, their environment, and the native tribes that inhabited the land. We felt a bond with Tanzania and look forward to visiting again. Thank you for our life altering trip Simon!

Simon is awesome. He has an amazing knowledge of the flora and fauna of Tanzania. He has bionic eyes and can spot wildlife that he points out before you will ever see.
The service was beyond our expectations.
Highly recommend touring with him.

With incomparable service, Herbivore Expeditions is the best of the Tour Operators in Tanzania!
5/5

Simon Mwakajumba at Herbivore Expeditions surpassed our expectations on our journey through 3 National parks in Tanzania, and even assisted with a 4 day beach holiday in Zanzibar! Simon and his crew attended to every detail, making the experience immersive and relaxing, exciting and amazing all at once! We cannot thank them enough for their effort in making our adventure unforgettable!
Simon arranged picnics in the middle of the bush and was able to spot Cheetah and lions we couldn't have seen without his guidance. For my second safari in East Africa, I much preferred this customized experience to the hectic pace of my first tour with a large US based tour company. The lodges, food and service were spectacular! Thank you, Simon and the whole crew for hosting us. We'll be back! Hakuna Matata

Experience of a Lifetime
5/5

I had the privilege of touring with Simon as my guide. My family and I took an amazing safari and Simon was a big part of what made it so successful. He’s an experienced guide. He was able to spot all kinds of wildlife for us and had an expansive knowledge of the country and all it has to offer. I have recommended his tour to many people on my various social media travel pages with good feedback. I would also like to mention that my family also really enjoyed him on a personal level. He was always positive and ready to have a great day. He really added to our overall experience. He was committed to providing the best tour possible for us. If I could I would go back in a minute!

Simon was the best!
5/5

I took a 7 day safari exploring Tarangire NP, the Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti. Herbivore Expeditions made my first safari one of the best experiences of my life! Simon took such good care of my group through out the entire trip. He was excellent with all the logistics and communications. His knowledge of the terrain and where to find animals was amazing. His local staff shared the same expertise. Simon and his staff were also so personable and accommodating. I was with a private group of 7 staying in luxury lodging. This trip was definitely an excellent value for the money. All the lodging was clean, comfortable with a very authentic charm. It was a plus for me to be able to support a local Tanzanian business.

Peaceful luxury safari experience in Tanzania
5/5

Our 6-day luxury Tanzania safari with the professional local Tanzanian tour organizer the Herbivore African Expeditions. We visited the Tanzanian famous parks Tarangire, Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater. From the start at Tarengire National Park, everything felt seamless and well organized by Simon. Tarangire impressed us with its giant baobab trees and large elephant herds, while the Serengeti delivered unforgettable wildlife moments across endless plains. Staying in luxury lodges and elegant tented camps elevated the entire experience. The rooms were beautiful, the views were breathtaking, and the gourmet meals exceeded our expectations after long game drives. This safari allowed us to experience Tanzania in a rich, comfortable, and deeply memorable way, And it was the perfect adventure and exciting journey for me and my wife.

5/5

Our 4-day camping safari was a fantastic time in Tanzania with the professional tour organizer Herbivore African Expeditions. We explored Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater and it was an unforgettable adventure. Camping brought us closer to nature and made the experience more immersive and peaceful. Ngorongoro Crater felt like a hidden world, filled with animals at every turn. Our 4 safari was deeply inspired by nature's beauty and Tanzanian thrilling wildlife action. Best safari experience.
