Outstanding 3-Day Safari with a Local Tanzanian Company We booked our three-day safari with Rioba Safari because the company made the best overall impression in terms of customer service, communication and professionalism. They were not the cheapest provider, but the booking process was quick, uncomplicated and very well organised. Our itinerary started and ended on Zanzibar: Day 1: Tarangire National Park, overnight at Bougainvillea Safari Lodge Day 2: Ngorongoro Crater, overnight at Bougainvillea Safari Lodge Day 3: Lake Manyara National Park, followed by our return to Zanzibar The entire safari experience was fantastic. Tarangire, the Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara each offered completely different landscapes and wildlife experiences, making the itinerary varied and exciting from beginning to end. Our guide was a major part of what made the trip so enjoyable. He was friendly, positive, easy-going and professional. We had a lot of fun together, felt comfortable at all times and enjoyed three unforgettable days. The safari vehicle was excellent, the equipment was comfortable, and the food and drinks provided during the journey were very well suited to the trip. Everything we needed was available, allowing us to focus entirely on the wildlife and the experience. We also appreciated that Robas Safari is a genuinely Tanzanian-owned and operated company. Booking directly with a local provider means that more of the money remains in Tanzania and supports the local economy, guides, drivers, accommodation providers and their families. We were extremely happy with our safari and would recommend Robas Safari without hesitation. Thank you to Joseph, Bankres and the entire team for this memorable experience.

Arrivati al areoporto di Dar es Salaam ci hs accolto Peter una persona unica che nel viaggio verso il Lounge ci ha inlustrato il presente e il passato dell'intera Tanzania. Gean e Emil ci hanno ilustato le meraviglie del fiume Rufiji. Il secondo giorno con Goodluck nel safari in jeep abbiamo scoperto la flora e soprattutto la fauna selvaggia lui e stato il nostro talismano per trovare gli animali piu selvaggi e sfuggenti della svana. Il terzo giorno con la visita ai Masai abbiamo scoperto gli usi e i costumi locali cosa dire porteremo questo viaggio per sempre nel cuore grazie davero mi sono sentito a casa.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently traveled with Rioba Safaris to Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire to witness the incredible migration, and it was a perfect experience from start to finish. Our guide, Gody, was not only nice but also highly experienced, making our journey unforgettable. His knowledge of the wildlife and the parks greatly enriched our adventure. Every aspect of the trip was meticulously organized, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of Tanzania's landscapes and wildlife. Highly recommend Rioba Safaris for an exceptional safari experience!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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 and his agency provided excellent communication and reliable, honest, service -- and a superb experience watching amazing wildlife. Transportation was punctual and smooth.  Food and accommodations were very good also. Rioba offers various levels of service, from luxury to budget, depending on client preference.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Asjaajamine pisut segane. Pisiasjadele (majutuskohas elektri ja lubatud wifi puudumine, agendi mitte kohale ilmumine, klientidega suhtlemine jm) eriti tähelepanu ei pöörata. Safari autojuht-giid Joseph oli väga asjatundlik, abivalmis ja sõbralik. Transfeeri autojuht oli väga profesionaalne ja tähelepanelik.Transfeeri ja safari autod olid asjakohased ja vastasid lubatule. Safari ise oli 98% fun! Elevandid, krokodillid  jõehobud, sebrad, kaelkirjakud jne. Super!
