A excellent chance to spend quality time with family.
March 18, 2025by: Alfie Knox - United KingdomUnder the roar of lions and shadow of leopards—an unprecedented safari experience! We recently had an amazing safari experience with the family! Everything was well planned from the beginning, which made our journey comfortable. The airport welcome was warm, the food was delicious, and the guide, John, was experienced and friendly, telling great stories about the wildlife to our children. During the game drive, we saw lions, elephants, giraffes, and a rare leopard, which was especially exciting for us children! They were amazed to see wildlife so closely for the first time.



Unforgettable 8-Week Volunteer Adventure with Safari Stride!
November 09, 2024by: Jephason Paul - United KingdomMy wife and I recently completed an 8-week volunteer program with Safari Stride in Tanzania, and it was truly the best experience of our lives. We spent most of our time volunteering at Costgan Primary School, where we helped the children in so many meaningful ways. The school staff and students welcomed us with open arms, and every day was a rewarding opportunity to make a difference. After our time at the school, we went on a 5-day safari through the breathtaking Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. From witnessing the majesty of lions and elephants in their natural habitat to the stunning sunsets on the endless plains, the safari exceeded all our expectations. Every moment was beautifully organized and stress-free, thanks to the knowledgeable guides and the incredible Safari Stride team. Volunteering and exploring Tanzania with Safari Stride has been a life-changing experience, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking an authentic, immersive adventure.
