MSC2024-05-04Excellent service and communication, amazing wildlife experience Joseph and his agency provided excellent communication and reliable, honest, service -- and a superb experience watching amazing wildlife. Rioba Safaris is based in Arusha and focuses on the northern circuit, but also provides full service on tours in the south. I booked a four-day package from Dar es Salaam in April 2024, including a day trip to Pugu Hills Nature Forest Reserve and a three-day trip to Mikumi National Park. Joseph arranged my tour perfectly despite very short notice, including some customization based on my schedule and interests. Joseph himself is a very capable wildlife guide, including knowledge of birds. He also arranged for additional guide and safari vehicle services that added a lot of value. Transportation was punctual and smooth, despite a lot of traffic in Dar and slow trucks on the Morogoro Road. The trip to Mikumi from Dar took about 7 hours, but the park made the long drive 100 percent worthwhile. We had magnificent views of the most famous wildlife, plus many birds (including a pair of Verreaux's Eagle-Owls) -- basically nonstop excitement every moment we were in the park. Food and accommodations were very good also. Rioba offers various levels of service, from luxury to budget, depending on client preference. As I understand it, Rioba accepts various modes of payment, including credit card, wire transfer, and Wise. Make sure to ask if your preferred method does not appear on the quote.Maswera Safaris2024-04-22The Great Sourthern Experience Great experience from Rioba Safaris,We hade a 10 Days safari to Ruaha,Mikumi and Selous /Nyerere National Park.Everything was well organised from the luxury Accommodations,food,Jeep and the Guide was perfect.I recommend 100%Ivana V2024-04-09Extraordinary Safari experience An extraordinary journey with Rioba Safaris!

Their exceptional organizational skills were evident in every aspect of the trip, from the well-coordinated game drives to the remarkable lodging arrangements. An adventure that felt both luxurious and authentic!Voyager049625146562023-10-05Awesome 11-day honeymoon (mountain, Safari, and beach) My husband and I had a wonderful 11-day honeymoon in Tanzania, including a 3-day Mt. Meru trek, 5 day safari, and 3 days in Stonetown Zanzibar. Joseph was very easy to plan with, and allowed many customizations to fit our desires and budget. He provided hands-on guidance of our trip to ensure we knew our guides before departure, and he checked in on us frequently to ensure our needs were met. 1) Our trek up Mt. Meru was unforgettable. Our chief guide (Kessy) was skillful, knowledgeable, kind, and was always thinking 3-steps ahead to ensure a successful summit. We were beyond impressed! Our porters, assistant guide, and chef ensured our comfort. We are experienced hikers but have never trekked before, and we would 100% do it again. 2) our safari was a dream come true! Our guide (Godfrey) skillfully took us to Tarengire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti. We saw the Big 5 and so much more! We were treated like VIPs with delicious food and luxurious accommodations. Godfrey answered every question we had about wildlife and culture, and made us feel comfortable and welcome. He is very skilled at his job, and his experience shows! 3) we asked for only transportation and accommodation in Zanzibar, and Rioba booked us well. Even when traffic caused difficulty getting us to the airport with our original plan, Rioba organized a back-up car and got us to the airport on time!Load more
