This was my first trip to Africa and it did not disappoint! Every thing about this trip was top tier, and that is because of the excellent work of Utopia Safaris. Utopia Safaris did an amazing job ensuring that our trip was seamless from the time we arrived in Tanzania until leaving. Every detail was taken care of including our lodging, transportation, and all of our meals. On the safari portion of our trip, our tour guides Ex and Joshua went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. They were extremely knowledgeable and were willing to teach us about the animals, plants, and habitats we encountered. On the beach portion of our trip, we had amazing excursions! I am truly grateful to have been able to experience Tanzania for the first time, and I consider myself lucky to have taken this trip with Utopia Safaris.

Hakuna Matata!Posted on Tripadvisor Nyrva CVerified Amazing Safari Our safari experience with Utopia Safari was outstanding. Our guide Joshua picked us up from Kilimanjaro airport and from there to Arusha, Lake Manyara National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti. During the 5 day safari, our guides Exhaud and Joshua made sure our every needs were met. They made sure our accommodations were top notch, from the hotel in Mt Maura to the bush camp in the Serengeti. During Safari, they made sure we were fully immersed and their knowledge of wildlife and plant life is so impressive. We saw ALL the big 5. The highlight of our trip was seeing the great migration, not just once but multiple times. During one of the migrations, we were able to witness a crocodile attack a wildebeest and the wildebeest’s will to live by escaping the killer jaws of the crocodile. We could not believe we were experiencing Nat Geo live. In addition, Exhaud and Joshua captured everything with such fabulous pictures and videos. If you are planning to go safari, Utopia Safari will give you the best experience. I highly recommend them.Posted on Tripadvisor Richon SVerified Best Safari ever!!!! I went on a 5 day safari from Ngorongoro crater to the Serengeti with our tour guide Joshua. He was so knowledgeable about the wildlife and flora. We truly enjoyed the Serengeti camp as well. 10/10 recommend this company for your next Safari!Posted on Tripadvisor bernard kVerified Safari- Kenya/ Tanzania We did a 2 weeks Safari in Kenya and Tanzania. It included Amboseli, Serengeti, Masai Mara, Ngorongoro and Ndutu. To say this was a trip of a life time is an understatement !!!The trip was extremely well planned and executed by Utopia travels. From the time we landed in Nairobi to the time we boarded our flight back to NYC very detail was looked into. The lodging recommended and we stayed at starting from tree top houses to migration camps was 5 star level. Our guide Exhaud was extrenely knowledgeable. We got to see not only the ‘big 5’, and the Mara River crossing which was the highlight but so much more than what we thought was possible. Exhaud went above and beyond to make this the best holiday ever for us and our kids (13 and 10years). We were in awe of vast breath of knowledge he had which he readily shared with us. The kids learnt so much about wild life, geography, people and culture from him. Exahdu was always there for us with his kind, funny, gentle and caring ways and made sure we had the best animal experiences and the most comfortable stays.A big shout out to our ‘Ernest’ who took the most amazing photos and did a wonderful job with a personalized video for us. We were able to be fully engrossed in nature whilst Ernest did all the ‘clicking’ for us.We are so very satisfied and also feel blessed that we were able to do this amazing journey with this wonderful tour company and guides and highly recommend to anyone looking to experience a ‘one of a kind’ Safari.Posted on Tripadvisor Dreamer16168688575Verified Family safari I took my 1-year-old and 5-year-old on a four-night safari to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorogoro. Luckily I could see all the animals I wanted to see. We stayed in a camp inside the Serengeti for two days, and it was comfortable for families with children. Binoculars are available for rent. This time I used the driver's personal camera and was able to take pictures of distant animals. The road trip was long and tiring for a 1 year old, but the 5 year old was excited, so I recommend it!
