Pleasant, experienced and fully reliable
We had a great few days to the Ngorongoro Crater. Sudi picked us up in a great car: clean, big and comfortable. His driving -on and off road- is very good and that is definitely not a given in this region. Very safe on road and experienced off road. Sudi knows his animals and know how to find them. He creates no false expectations and is great company without imposing himself.
In short, my and my family (with teen age kids) fully recommend Sudi.
Absolutely fabulous
Sudi was outstanding. He was incredibly knowledgeable, polite, considerate, and focused. He made sure we got to experience local culture in addition to doing game drives. He brought in a local guide in one area to make sure we had the right thing experience. I would use him again and would really commend him to everyone I know. Thank you for such a terrific journey.

Top-Notch personalized service
This tour provider was excellent! Sudi was friendly, caring, and went out of his way to ensure that we had an enjoyable experience. We were 5 different people (in 3 groups), and he managed to please everyone! He listened to our desires and adjusted plans to make sure that no one was disappointed. He has a wealth of information about the country, animals, fauna, birds, local customs, and he shared it all with us. He even lengthened days to make sure that we caught sight of that last of the big 5. All this, with a smile on his face! It was wonderful!

best trip of our life thanks to great guy/guide Sudi
we had a super trip through the Serengeti, with our family of 6 persons. Sudi brought us to best places, to watch the wildlife , and we camped and stayed in beautiful lodges.
Sudi is a great guy, experienced, and ofcourse sees all animals long before we saw them.
highlights were the north of the serengeti, plus the ngoro crater.
we will absolutely come back!
thanks so much for taking so good care of us!

Best local tour operators and the best travel
Dendea's arrangements were incredibly thorough, offering the best value for money among all the local tour operators.
Before the trip, Dendea paid close attention to our needs, patiently answering our questions for three months.
During the trip, we saw many animals and witnessed spectacular sights. For example, we saw numerous prides of lions, elephants, zebras, and wildebeest, as well as newborn elephant calves, buffalo, and many other baby animals. Dendea's eyesight was superb; he could spot animals from a great distance and learn about their habits. In addition, we saw rare animals such as blue sheep, rock hares, and caracals.
Furthermore, Dendea's service was excellent. They resolved various issues for us during the trip, and the vehicle was well-equipped, with mobile Wi-Fi, fly swatters, and a refrigerator.
The meals and accommodations were also very satisfactory. We had lunchboxes and hot meals to choose from. Our accommodations were excellent; we could live next to animals, with hippos and rabbits grazing at night, and we could even hear lions roaring nearby – we truly made the most of our budget.
In conclusion, I was very fortunate to meet Dendea, whose perfect arrangements gave us an unparalleled life experience!

Fantastic
I am really recommend Dendea Tanzania Experience. They have very nice service. We traveled with them to Serengeti. Unforgettable trip! We saw all animals, the driver has very good knowledge about all animals. We saw lions and they come even around our car. They drive very good, no stress and followed the rules. We use even them for Arushas city tour. They help us for transit to airport. It’s serious company which you can trust.

Sudi is the consummate expert safari guide. He is extremely knowledgeable and a good man too.
Sudi went out of his way to accommodate our safari group, He is an expert locating and describing the various wildlife. Sudi is trustworthy and a very patient and kind person. His English is very good. What impressed me the most was the respect shown him from the other drivers. On a side note, he was a extremely safe driver and the vehicle was always very clean. Your safari trip with Sudi will be the best trip ever!

Excellent safari experience with knowledgeable guides
We had an amazing safari experience with Dendea Safaris. Communication before the trip was smooth and professional, and everything was well organized from start to finish.
Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and worked hard to help us find wildlife. We were fortunate to see a wide variety of animals, including lions, hyenas, elephants, giraffes, and many others. The guide was also very patient and happy to answer our questions about the animals and the ecosystem.
The vehicle was comfortable, the accommodations were great, and the overall itinerary was well planned. We always felt safe and well taken care of throughout the trip.
If you are looking for a reliable safari operator in Tanzania, we would highly recommend Dendea Safaris. It was truly a memorable experience for our family.

Journey of surprises and happiness
This trip was our honeymoon. After extensive online comparisons we chose Dendea Safari, and it proved to be the right decision. Our eight-day itinerary included Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu and the Ngorongoro Crater. We had close-up encounters with many animals, such as lions, cheetahs, leopards and rhinos, capturing unforgettable photos.
Sudi was our guide—a highly professional local expert. In addition to arranging safari activities, he also took us to explore the cities of Arusha and Karatu, visited Maasai markets, and helped us find a currency exchange with favorable rates. The vehicle was stocked with ice water, cola and snacks. He even thoughtfully prepared a bottle of wine for our honeymoon. He also brought along a Chinese guidebook on African wildlife, which greatly enhanced our journey and helped us learn about many new animals.
Of course, the journey wasn’t without its challenges. My husband fell ill with gastroenteritis midway. As February and March are the rainy season in Tanzania, the slippery roads led to encounters with heavy floods, multiple vehicle stucks, and even getting lost during camp relocations. Fortunately, thanks to Sudi’s extensive experience, all difficulties were smoothly resolved. We are both deeply grateful to him.
I am more than happy to recommend Dendea Safari to anyone planning a safari here. After all, surprises and unexpected moments are part of the journey—embrace and enjoy them!

An absolutely perfect trip！
I booked my trip to Tanzania with Dendea a year in advance for this February. They provided an excellent itinerary at a fair price, and managed to secure hotels that are usually very hard to reserve. When the sunset cocktail activity was cancelled, they refunded us without any hassle.
Our guide Walter was fantastic—he could spot so many animals, was caring and kind, and even helped other guides. In the end, we saw all of the Big Five.
Highly recommended!
