la mia esperienza con Asili Explorer è stata bellissima. Abbiamo fatto un safari di gruppo per 4 giorni, di cui 1 notte in lodge e 2 notti in tenda in un campeggio. È andato tutto bene con l’organizzazione, Joe ci è venuto a prendere in aeroporto e ci hanno riportato con anche il ritardo del volo. Il safari è stato bellissimo e noi lo abbiamo fatto nella versione più economica possibile. Ve li consiglio molto, super seri e disponibili.

Everithing Perfect My experience with Asili Explorer was wonderful. We went on a four-day group safari, including one night in a lodge and two nights in a tent at a campsite. Everything went smoothly with the organization; Joe picked us up at the airport and they dropped us off even with our flight delayed. The safari was wonderful, and we did it at the most economical option possible. I highly recommend them; they're incredibly professional and helpful.

Had a brilliant experience with Joe and team at Asili Explorers. From first time i got in touch, i got a speedy quote and every qu i asked was answered promptly. Loved our 6 day whistle stop tour of the parks , just wish we could have stayed longer, every detail was taken care of from camping to lodges, picnics in the national park and wildlife spotting. Our guide and company owner went out of his way to help us find a cheetah which my son was desperate to see! Also , more reasonably priced than others. You wont regret it book your family safari with Asili!!!

Wonderful experience We had the best time with Joe from Asili! Joe went out of his way to make sure we saw everything we wanted to , my son was obsessed with Cheetahs and he made sure he got to see not just one but three! We also got upgraded to nicer accomodation too at no extra cost. The experience was truly wonderful and quite reasonably priced ( for Tanzania!) Im planning to climb Kili next with Joe. Book the trip you wont be disappointed!

Asili Explorer offers one of the best value wildlife safaris in Tanzania. The balance between affordability and quality service was impressive. Our guide ensured we didn’t miss any key wildlife moments, including a close-up view of a leopard. The lodges were clean and comfortable, and the overall experience exceeded expectations. For anyone planning a Tanzania wildlife safari, Asili Explorer is a great option.

We had an amazing experience booking with Asili Explorer. The team was responsive and helped customize our itinerary to fit our needs. The safari vehicle was comfortable, and the game drives were well planned. Visiting Tarangire and Serengeti was a dream come true. Asili Explorer stands out as a professional and reliable Tanzania safari company. Highly recommended!

Asili Explorer provided an unforgettable Tanzania safari experience. From the vast plains of Serengeti National Park to the stunning Ngorongoro Crater, every moment was perfectly organized. Our guide was professional, knowledgeable, and passionate about wildlife. We saw lions, elephants, giraffes, and more. If you’re looking for a trusted safari company in Tanzania, Asili Explorer is an excellent choice.

Amazing! We had an amazing trip. Even when our flight got delayed Joe, the guide, did everything he could to give us the best experience. We even woke up very early to see as much as possible. He knows a lot about the wildlife and is eager to explain everything. Always has an answer ready to your questions. If we had more time, and in the future if we come back, we would undoubtedly book with Joe again.

Exceptional Family Safari Experience with Asili Explorers From the very first enquiry, Joe and his team at Asili Explorers went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable. We were two adults traveling with an 11-year-old and a 5-year-old, and they couldn’t have been more accommodating.Joe helped us plan a perfect itinerary, including a private safari at an incredible price compared to other providers. Throughout the months leading up to our trip, I had countless questions, and every single one was answered promptly with detailed, helpful information.Our safari guide was outstanding, knowledgeable, friendly, and patient. He answered all our questions and engaged wonderfully with the kids, making the experience even more special.Beyond the safari, Asili Explorers also organized our two-day drive across Tanzania to Dar es Salaam, where we caught the ferry to Zanzibar.They arranged a reliable driver and comfortable vehicle, ensuring everything ran smoothly.One of the most meaningful parts of our trip was visiting an orphanage for disabled children, where we were able to give out clothes and stationery items we had brought with us. This experience was truly humbling and added a special dimension to our journey especially for the children, (on a separate note i would highly recommend bringing out clothes, hygiene items and stationery to help in the communities).I can’t recommend Joe and his team highly enough. They are trustworthy, professional, and genuinely care about creating the best experience for their guests. If you’re planning a trip to Tanzania, look no further than Asili Explorers!

Abbiamo appena concluso il nostro safari privato di 5 notti e 6 giorni all’interno dei principali parchi della Tanzania (Tarangire, Ngorongoro e Serengeti) e che dire?! È stato spettacolare, unico e indimenticabile. Joe e il suo team ci hanno pianificato l’itinerario dei nostri sogni e ci hanno fornito assistenza fin da prima della partenza. Una volta arrivati ci hanno fornito transfert dall’aeroporto e abbiamo cominciato il nostro tour. Una menzione speciale a Godrich, il nostro driver, giovane, appassionato e sempre pronto a fornirci informazioni e curiosità sugli animali e la savana. E infine un grande grazie a Given, che ci ha accompagnato durante tutto il tour, per la sua gentilezza e disponibilità. È stato tutto meraviglioso.

Unforgettable We have just concluded our private safari of 5 nights and 6 days inside the main parks of Tanzania (Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti) and what about?! It was spectacular, unique and unforgettable. Joe and his team have been planning our dream itinerary for us and have been assisting us since before departure. Once we arrived they provided us with airport transfers and we started our tour. A special mention to Godrich, our driver, young, passionate and always ready to provide us with information and curiosity about animals and the savannah. And finally a big thank you to Given, who accompanied us throughout the tour, for his kindness and availability. Everything was wonderful.

A Trip of a Lifetime with Asili Explorer We recently embarked on an unforgettable 12-day journey through Tanzania, Uganda, and Rwanda with Asili Explorer, and it truly was the trip of a lifetime. From start to finish, every detail was meticulously planned and executed, thanks to Joe, the exceptional coordinator at Asili Explorer. Joe curated an incredible itinerary, booking us into six remarkable hotels: Aya Sophia Wildlife Villas, Gorilla Heights Lodge, Gran Melia, Hotel Des Mille Collines, Misako Luxury Camp, Ngorongoro Oldeani Lodge, Serengeti Arc Safari Lodge, and Suricata Boma Lodge. Each hotel had its own unique story and charm, leaving us torn between staying in to soak up the ambiance or venturing out to explore the wild. The accommodations were beyond compare, with warm hospitality, delectable food, and settings so enchanting that words can hardly do them justice. Joe ensured that every hotel provided packed lunches and snacks for our safari adventures, which were not only delicious but also perfectly suited for our days in the wilderness. Our guide in Tanzania, John, a proud Maasai, was nothing short of extraordinary. His deep knowledge of the Maasai culture and his warm storytelling brought the region to life. John arranged a visit to a Maasai tribe, where we were welcomed with open hearts and learned so much about their traditions and way of life. His expertise in navigating Tarangire and Serengeti National Parks, as well as the Ngorongoro Crater, was unparalleled. John’s keen eye for spotting wildlife allowed us to witness the Big Five and many other animals up close, capturing National Geographic-worthy photos with our modest camera. His passion and detailed explanations made every moment educational and awe-inspiring. In Rwanda and Uganda, Joe coordinated with another guide, Benson, who was equally outstanding. His professionalism and warmth matched John’s, and together, they made our journey seamless and unforgettable. The booking process with Joe was effortless, with clear communication and not a single flaw to note. His professionalism shone through in every interaction, ensuring our trip felt like a dream. Through this journey, we forged lifelong friendships with Joe, John, and Benson. Asili Explorer didn’t just plan a trip—they crafted an immersive, once-in-a-lifetime experience that we’ll cherish forever. We wholeheartedly recommend Asili Explorer to anyone seeking an adventure filled with wonder, culture, and unparalleled beauty. This was more than a vacation; it was a dream brought to life. Best wishes from Boston

Fantastic tour We did the two-day private safari of Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater with Asili Explorer Safaris and all our expectations were exceeded. Tarangire and Ngorongoro were one of the most spectacular places we have ever seen, and we could see pretty much every animal you could imagine. Our guide Marc was fantastic, very competent and patient with us. The whole team was great, thanks to Nasra for the perfect organization. We stayed in a comfortable lodge with very good food. We will definitely come back, but then make a safari through the Serengeti but on only with Asili Explorers Safaris. Thank you Joe and your team.

Spectacularly breathtaking Alfred was our guide through Ngorogoro Crater and the Serengeti. It is impossible to describe how great he was. His knowledge was indefatigable, his ability to find the animals and behaviours extraordinary and he is a great cameraman to boot. He kept us amused, never stopped saying Jambo, Jambo, nature will provide. We had the most incredible time and saw things I didn’t think was possible. The lodges were beautiful, the people so friendly and welcoming. We even went to the site of the discovery of the origins of man. Words fail me.
