Their attention to detail was remarkable. Every aspect of the trip was carefully planned from transportation and accommodations to activities and meals. I was always informed ahead of time about what to expect, and any questions I had were answered promptly. They took care of all the logistics, which allowed me to focus on simply enjoying the experience without any stress or worry. I really appreciate and I recommend Shengena Adventures. jen brs2024-09-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We went on a safari with Shengzna Adventure at the end of August and beginning of September, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Stanley is the best guide we could have hoped for. He always took our feedback into account, shared lots of fascinating information about the animals and nature, and his passion for his job is evident, which adds to the incredible experience! Thankfully, he was there to spot every hidden lion in the savannah with just one glance! I highly recommend this and suggest you request Stanley for an unforgettable safari experience! Always in a good mood and ready with solutions! See you soon, and thanks again to the team! Elayn Sammon2024-08-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an incredible safari with Shengena. From start to finish, their communication was excellent. What really impressed us was their flexibility - when we requested last-minute changes to our itinerary, they accommodated us without any fuss. The highlight of our trip was our guide, Stanley. His knowledge of the wildlife and landscape was impressive, and he went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible viewing experiences. Stanley's expertise meant we always seemed to be in the perfect spot to observe the animals. For the price we paid, the value was outstanding. We saw everything we hoped for and more, thanks to Stanley's skill and dedication. If you're looking for an affordable safari that doesn't compromise on quality, I highly recommend this company. Overall, a five-star experience that exceeded our expectations! Andrea Ranuzzi2024-08-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our recent 10-day Safari and Zanzibar trip with Shengena Adventures, managed by Mike, was a major disappointment. While we did see the Big Five, several issues severely marred the experience: Poor Communication: There were significant communication breakdowns between the tour manager and our guide. On two separate occasions, we were left waiting for hours due to miscommunication, wasting valuable game drive time. Substandard Vehicle: The jeep provided was in terrible condition, lacking air conditioning, with frequent breakdowns, and was extremely uncomfortable due to bad suspensions. By the end of the safari, the dashboard was falling apart, making the experience unpleasant. Mismanaged Transfers: Our transfer to Zanzibar was poorly planned, leaving us wasting an entire day at a hotel instead of enjoying the beach due to a late flight booking. Failed Engagement Surprise: I had arranged a special bush lunch for my engagement, but it was a disaster. What was promised—a beautiful setup with champagne—turned out to be a cheap, poorly executed setup with alcohol-free grape juice. Despite paying extra, the experience was far below expectations, though I eventually received a refund after several complaints. See photo comparison on what was promised and what we received. Overall, Shengena Adventures failed to deliver the quality experience we paid for. I wouldn’t recommend this company to anyone, as there are many other options that would likely offer a better experience. Viajes Bruno2024-08-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Una experiencia muy bonita. Contactamos con Mike, nos resolvió todas las dudas y reservamos con esta empresa con un presupuesto asequible. Nos ha tocado de traductor-guía a Mr. Muri y de chofer-guía a Mr. Makundi. Dos personas tanto profesionales como amigables. Muy recomendables. 😊 Alexandra P.2023-10-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started communicating with Mike and Boris from Shengena to plan an 8-day safari a few weeks before arrivals and they were very reactive and accommodating. On D day, our very knowledgeable guide-driver Godwin came to pick us up at our hotel in Arusha on time and we started our journey with Tarangire and then visited Lake Natron, northern and central Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. We were very lucky and saw many animals, including lions, cheetahs and leopards, adults and cubs. Thank you guys for giving us such a wonderful time! Eve Desroches2023-10-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nous avons fait un safari privé de 8 jpurs avec Shengena. Notre guide Godwin était très professionnel, gentil et il connait un paquet d'informations sur les animaux. Nous avons visité - le parc de Tarangire - la réserve du lac Natron - le nord et le centre du parc de serengeti - le parc du cratère de Ngorongoro - le parc du Manyara Le safari a été planifié avec Mike qui était très efficace et nous a donné de bonnes suggestions. Aussi à notre arrivée, il nous a fait découvrir un peu Arusha et nous a accompagné pour trouver un guichet et une carte sim. Et même à faire réparer mes chaussures. Superbe expérience avec cette compagnie. Gert Versteeg2023-08-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Top Karol Muszkiewicz2023-02-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Together with my gf we had a chance to have 2 safaris in Kenya before reaching out to Shengena Adventure. I can say it loud: those guys are great! The company is being run by 2 young and super friendly people, who yet have a lot of experience in organizing safaris. Before the trip, they were always super responsive and were patiently replying to thousands of questions we had. Apart from organizing everything we wanted, they also put us to the right track when we wanted to do something in a wrong way (e.g. to big distances between the parks, location for great migration, etc.). The jeep we were having was operating flawless and the guide was super knowledgeable - knew all the answers, knew where to find animals and had couple of good stories to tell :) The lodges they've organized for us were breathtaking... beautiful views, great standard and great food. What else can I say? I can definitely recommend Shengena! What we got for the money was way above the expectations :)
