Exceptional Experience with a Luxury Twist
5/5

We couldn’t wish for a better safari experience - High Neck were very reliable, flexible and accommodating.
Even though we came during the low season, our amazing guide Edward was able to show us all the animals we wanted to see and really went extra mile to show us around.
The definite highlight of the trip was also the choice of accommodations that High Neck did for us - we got a chance to stay in incredible lodges in all the parks and even in the famous Four Seasons Serengeti.
Another important thing to mark is the absence of touristic traps - we were not taken to any fake souvenir shops, irrelevant museums or staged shows. Our main goal was to focus on spotting animals and our guide did everything to maximize our time in the parks.
Overall, just an amazing experience - from the most comfortable car (even in comparison to fellow safari travelers in the park) to local insight from the guide and, of course, seeing all the Big 5!
Thank you!

An Unforgettable Safari Experience
5/5

We saw all the animals, including leopard and rhinos, that are very hard to spot. Our guide was fantastic — knowledgeable and passionate, no matter how much driving there was or complex the route our guide made sure we saw every animal! — and the lodges were comfortable and beautifully located. Every day was a new adventure, with stunning landscapes and incredible wildlife. I highly recommend this agency and our guide Edward, if you want want to be guided by people that really care and who want to give you the absolute best experience. You can really see they care! Can't thank them enough. Hope to be back soon

Friendly, efficient, and made every moment of the safari count
5/5

From the start, communication was prompt and helpful — Zakaria answered all my questions with patience and clarity. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned, and everything ran exactly as promised. Our guide Edward was knowledgeable, the accommodations were comfortable, and the game drives were unforgettable. I especially appreciated the flexibility and care shown throughout the trip. Excellent value for money — highly recommended!

Our tour operator was flexible, patient and extremely knowledgable
5/5

My wife and I visited Tanzania with Edward guiding us on behalf of Highneck Safaris. Edward, our guide, was amazing and incredibly friendly. We connected immediately and he really improved our trip so much with how knowledgeable he was about the animals and environments we were going through in and out of the parks. He also has the eyes of an eagle and spotted so much that we would have missed. The support from the office was amazing as well, they kept in constant contact making sure we were enjoying our time and the office even came up with more activities we could add to our package depending on the area we were in. We would absolutely book with Highneck's again and we probably will again in the future, since this will not be our last trip to Tanzania!

Organized
5/5

My friends and I had a great time in Kenya and Tanzania. Zakaria was accommodating and very patient with our plan. I think they only offer tour in Tanzania. But he made it possible for us to combine Kenya and Tanzania. So less stress for us to coordinate transfers between 2 countries. All the staffs from 4 different accommodations were helpful. When one of our friends got really sick, Suzanne (our coordinator from Kenya) made sure our friend was well taken care of and coordinated a transport back to the city to get the necessary treatment. Our drivers/guides, James (Kenya) and Rajeb (Tanzania) did their best to make sure we have an amazing experience during the safari.

Just to clarify, our friend was already feeling sick before arriving to Kenya (Doctors ruled it as side effect from the vaccine). So it’s not caused by what we ate or drank there.

Professional and Meticulous
5/5

We selected Highneck Safaris among several local tour operators, as they provided a custom proposal that perfectly matched our needs. Communication was excellent both before and during the trip. Our driver, Edward, was not only a very good driver but also a knowledgeable guide. He took us beyond the standard tourist routes, showing us alternative paths where we could experience nature and wildlife without crowds or other vehicles. Considering our mid-to-high budget, the lodges and food were overall very good. We highly recommend this young yet professional tour operator.

Excellent safari experience from start to finish. Well-organized itinerary, knowledgeable guide, great wildlife sightings, and smooth logistics. Eddie (our safari driver/ guide) has been professional, reliable, and truly passionate about showcasing Africa at its best. Highly recommended. Cheers to Eddie, Octavian (the operator) and the rest of the team for putting together this unique experience for us.

Mambo Mazuri (all is good) - Most incredible safari experience
5/5

High Neck Safaris offered us an incredible safari experience. It was our first visit to Africa. We received all necessary information on time, and Octavian (our contact person) made sure, that the safari was customized to all our wishes. He answered to all our questions quickly. Everything was well organized, especially the transfer from the airport worked well, our driver was already waiting for us.
Our safari began in the morning in Arusha with meeting our guide Edward. He welcomed us with a friendly smile, and we already had a good feeling since the beginning. During our safari (7 days overall, 5 days out in the national parks), we were able to see every animal we could have wished for. Edward showed us incredible places, that were far away from the masses. He cared about everything and fulfilled all our needs and wishes. We learned a lot about the wildlife as well as the Tanzanian culture and people. We are very thankful for every minute, and enjoyed it to the best. Leaving Serengeti and Ngorongoro in the end of our trip was quite hard, because of its beauty and the great experience. To put it in a nutshell, we highly recommend High Neck Safaris to everyone!

Asante sana! Hakuna matata! (Thank you very very much!)
