Why Tanzania Safaris Are in a Class of Their Own

The Serengeti is Tanzania's flagship destination and central to the Great Wildebeest Migration, while the Ngorongoro Crater packs an exceptional concentration of wildlife into one enclosed ecosystem. Tarangire adds elephant herds and ancient baobabs, and Lake Manyara brings forest, birdlife and lake habitats into a compact Northern Circuit stop. When your safari ends, Zanzibar's white sand beaches are less than two hours away.

Large parts of Tanzania remain raw and untouched — dust roads cutting through open savannah, traditional Maasai communities, and thousands of kilometres of wilderness with no fences and no crowds. Tanzania's lodges and camps are world-class too: exceptional food, comfortable beds, hot showers, and WiFi, right in the middle of the bush.

Excellent first expirience in the Masai Mara National Park We had a wonderful three-day safari with Beyond the Plains Kenya. Everything was punctual and well organized, and our guide, Douglas, was exceptional. He was an excellent and safe driver, even in Kenya’s chaotic traffic. His extensive knowledge of wildlife and geography made our Masai Mara experience unforgettable. He patiently answered every question, including scientific species names, and helped us capture incredible photos and observations. If you need to choose a guide do not hesitate to ask for Douglas Issa.

The trip of a lifetime! Our safari trip to Kenya was one of the best experiences we have ever had! We loved every second of our trip, fell in love with Kenya and its beautiful nature, and learned so, so much thanks to our amazing tour guide, Peter! Beyond the Plains were so helpful from our initial email, throughout our trip, and right until the very end. They answered all of our questions, tailored the perfect trip for us, and made sure we got our dream safari experience. Special thanks to Maurine for all her help planning the trip, and to our guide, Peter, for making sure we had an amazing experience. We did a 5-night, 6-day safari and visited Amboseli National Park, Lake Naivasha, and Maasai Mara National Reserve. Our three different accommodations were clean, comfortable, and lovely, with great service and food. We especially recommend staying in a tented camp, as it truly gives you the full experience of being surrounded by nature. Top tip: The distances between the parks can be quite long (5–6 hours), so definitely consider travelling by small plane to save time. Bring plenty of snacks, both for the drives between parks and for the game drives, as you will be out for long hours. Thank you, Beyond the Plains, Maurine, and Peter, for the best time! We can’t wait to be back! 🐘🦁❤️

Trip of a Lifetime Our 11 day safari with Beyond the Plains exceeded all expectations! From the booking process with Linet to arrival and meeting our most amazing driver Ronnie this was our best trip ever! We stayed in Amboseli, Naivasha, Nakuru, and finished with 5 nights in the Masai Mara. The accommodations were all great with outstanding service and good food. We liked the Maisha Mara camp the best. A few more words about our driver Ronnie. We really became family during the trip - he always said “don’t worry about anything we are family in this car” and you know he meant that. He was so friendly, safe, and knowledgeable. Ronnie knew all the parks and treated all the other drivers so well, emphasizing his great qualities. Ronnie went the extra mile to ensure we got to experience a LOT of amazing wildlife, capped off by a successful leopard hunt that happened right in front of us on our last day. He always put us in perfect position for viewing and photos. One hundred percent recommend Beyond the Plains! Make a special request for Ronnie!

Amazing safari experience! We just finished an amazing eleven night safari with Beyond the Plains. We visited four different areas of Kenya and each accommodation was excellent. Our driver, Ronnie, is who really made this such an amazing trip. His knowledge of the parks we visited, along with his professionalism were outstanding. I would not hesitate to recommend Beyond the Plains.

Incredible Safari and Guide. Trip of a lifetime! My parents, a friend, and I booked our safari in Kenya with Beyond the Plains and it was absolutely incredible. We visited all of the main parks, saw amazing wildlife, and felt at home each step of the way. Our tour guide, Ronnie, was the best driver we could have asked for. He went the extra mile every day to ensure we were taken care of and got to see everything. He wasn’t just friendly with us, but with every other driver as well, working as a team to help other tours experience the animals along the way. We did 11 days across Amboseli, Naivasha, Nakuru, and Masai Mara, and loved every minute of it. Each spot offered a unique look into Kenya’s culture, the animals, and the resorts. From seeing lions, leopards, cheetahs, rhinos, elephants, and more, we couldn’t have asked for a better trip. Highly recommend!

Incredible trip, fantastic driver We had an incredible time with Beyond the Plains. Over ten days spend with Ronnie as our guide, and he was UNBELIEVABLE. Connections all around the reserves and he put us in fantastic spots to get photos. We even saw a leopard hunt an impala. What an incredible experience. I recommend asking for Ronnie, truly fantastic.

A great safari in the Masai Mara! We were overwhelmed by the amount of safari companies there were to choose from, so we’re incredibly glad we decided to go with Beyond the Plains for our four day trip to the Masai Mara. From start to finish, the experience has been fantastic and we couldn’t have asked for a better safari. A special mention has to go to our guide and driver, Ben. We would highly recommend him to anyone planning a safari. With 20 years of experience, his knowledge of the Masai Mara and the animals was exceptional, and it was clear how much he genuinely cares about and respects the wildlife. One of our top priorities was ensuring this was an ethical safari and Ben ensured it was. He was also attentive, helpful and great company throughout the trip. His friendly and relaxed personality made the experience even more enjoyable, and we always felt that we were in safe and capable hands. We also stayed at Zebra Plains, which was an excellent choice of accommodation. The staff were lovely and welcoming, the food was excellent, and the proximity to the Masai Mara entrance was a real bonus, making it very convenient for our game drives. We opted for the additional hot air balloon trip and we were so glad we did. If anyone is questioning whether it is worth the price, it definitely is. Overall, we had an amazing experience with Beyond the Plains and would happily recommend them to anyone considering a safari. A huge thank you to the whole team, and especially Ben, for making our trip so memorable!

Amazing safari trip Beyond the plains put together an amazing safari trip for our family that met our requests and budget, and that was thoroughly enjoyable. The Team were helpful, responsive and had lots of ideas and suggestions. Our driver- Ian was amazing, and nothing was too much trouble. He was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. He had loads of information about the country and places we visited. He accommodated our requests and timescales and was a brilliant guide, who really made our safari experience incredibly - we saw the big 5 and loads of animals thanks to his knowledge. We would absolutely recommend using this organisation.
