WELCOME TO BOBBY CAMPING SAFARIS

  My favourite part was almost everything I enjoyed every minute! I really loved to spend time with amiri our guide (the best guide everrrrrrr)

  We took this trip for a honeymoon and had an amazing time! Amiri the guide was extremely nice and provided us all of our needs and more. He was willing... read more to help us with any request we had. Also he always found the best spots for viewing the wildlife in all our sites and actively searched for animals to show to us. Highly recommended!!

  I went to Tanzania last August with my daughter and my grandson on tour organized (unfortunately) by another organization. The situation was turning into disaster..luckily we met Amani Elias Kirway!... read more He has been our driver and adventure's companion. Professional, reliable, polite, and friendly. Thanks to him we discovered the beauties of Tanzania and we met a lot of wild animals including leopards, cheetahs, and servals..my grandson was so enthusiastic! Amani, thank you for saving our journey in Tanzania, being part of our family, and sharing with us positive and negative situations. I strongly suggest Amani and, consequently, his touristic organization the “bobby camping safaris” to all people planning a trip in Tanzania. Bibi Cristina

  We spent 8 days traveling through Tarangire, lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and lake Natron.
Amani Elias Kirway was our driver. He was professional, knowledgeable, attentive, kind, positive, helpful and we... read more really felt like he was part of our family during the time we spent together.
We couldn't have imagined a better companion for our journey!
Based on this fabulous experience I would (and I will) recommend Amani, and therefore the Bobby Camping Safaris, to anyone looking for a guide in their journey through the beautiful Tanzania.

  In Aug 2022, we experienced amazing wild life at Serengeti and ngorongoro with bobby camping. All the arrangements including accomodations, travel and food was perfectly planned.
Our guide and driver... read more Amiri kept us entertained.

We do suggest to skip lake manyara if one is planning to visit Serengeti and Ngorongoro.

  In January 2020 we headed back to Kilimanjaro Airport from our great family safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Bobby Camping Safaris where we spent a few days with our... read more teenage kids. That was our first experience with this agency. As me and my husband are mountain lovers, we could leave our eyes on Kili that can be seen easily from the road and then we started dreaming and promissed ourselves that one time we will come back to climb Kili together. In July 2022 our dream came true. Bobby Camping Safaris team was the best choice again. We decided for 7-days Machame Route. July 3, 2022 - July 9, 2022. Planning and organizing went smooth thanks to Bobby, who gave us a lot of useful info. Our guides Mohamed and Innocent were experienced and well educated about the nature, we’ve learned a lot about the mountain, animals, plants. In addition to this they were singing, giving us Swahili lessons, telling stories and chief cook Miraje was cooking exceptionally good food for us. Fresh fruits and vegetable were also part of our daily menu. Every evening they did medical check by filling the questionaire and doing oxygen check to make sure we are doing well and are able to continue in a good fitness. We are lucky that we had such a good caring staff to support us (including our great porters). We were feeling very safe and comfortable. We had high quality tent and always clean and fresh water for drinking and washing. On July 8, 2022 6:30 a.m. we successfully stood on the roof of Africa - Uhuru Peak 5895m. I really recommend this agency for your safari trips or Kili climb. They pay attention to details, they listen to client’s needs, are very reliable, so you won’t have any worries to go anywhere with them. Simply Hakuna Matata ! In case you need some more details don’t hesitate to write me, I am happy to answer and help with your plans.

  We started planning our safari 10 months in advance for 4 adults and 2 kids (7 and 10 years old). We wanted to have an experience as close as possible... read more to the nature in the different parks and opted for camping. We did not want to go to the western-style lodges.
Murtaza, who runs Bobby Camping Safaris, made us a first proposal from which we started to put together the trip we dreamed of. Murtaza was always quickly responsive to all our inquiries (and we had a lot!), made additional suggestions and put together a full tour including Materuni falls (on the slopes of Kilimanjaro), Arusha National Park, Tarangire NP, Lake Natron, Serengeti NP (entering from the northern gate), Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara NP. It all came at a much lower cost than any other proposal we got from the competing companies. Why pay more when you can get a life-changing experience with the best driver, guide and cook you can hope for?
Our safari with Bobby Camping Safaris went without a glitch. After arriving at Arusha airport, Amini, a safe and careful driver from Bobby Camping Safari took us to the company office where we met with Murtaza and reviewed our safari to come.
We started with a visit of the coffee plantation and waterfall in Materuni, also with driver Amani. We then went on with Arusha NP and met with our guide for the next 8 days, Amiri. His reviews were extremely positive and we were never disappointed with him. Amiri truely has hawk-eyes and spots the animals in all kinds of landscapes. You can sense that he loves his job because he always looks for the best spot to watch the animals when the other guides simply park one after the other. He quickly adapted to our likes and proposed stops before we asked. He also has a great sense of humour and we spent the whole journey having lots of fun and making jokes with him.
The day after we departed from Arusha for a 7-day safari and met our cook Miraji. Our small family was complete to start this experience. Miraji's breakfasts with pancakes, omelettes, toasts and fruits were delicious. His lunches and diners as well. We also had tea and coffee some afternoons. The Tarangire NP was a great start with elephants and giraffes as highlights. The day after we drove along the rift valley to Lake Natron. The landscape was breathtaking. We then entered Serengeti NP from the north. Driving across the park from the northern hills to the southern endless plains was fantastic. We got to see elephants, giraffes, buffalos, lions, hyenas, zebras, gnous, all kinds of gazelles and antilopes, hippos, two black rhinos, three cheetahs, a leopard eating a gazelle on a tree, a lion on the hunt, eagles, herons, ibis, ostriches, vultures, etc. What more to ask for? During the nights in the camp, we could hear hyenas and a roaring lion in the surroundings and a buffalo came in front of our tent to feed. That was the experience we were looking for. Ngorongoro Crater was also exceptional, although the cloudy and windy weather prevented us from seeing a rhino there. But we got to see the rare serval cat! We finished our tour with Manyara NP where we had a very close encounter with a big male elephant.
All in all the safari exceeded by far our expectations. With Amiri and Miraji, we were treated like VIPs all the way. They always wore smiles on their faces and made our trip unforgettable. Thank you Bobby Camping Safaris. We hope we can come back one day.

  My family and I have had an amazing experience and beyond the imagination thanks to guide Amiri ,an amazing person with a sense of humor,and a lot of patiene, It... read more seemed like he had visual abilities,(He recognized the animals faster than any of us).Although he saw a huge amount of animals in his life, he seemed to be excited about finding them as if it was the first time .Amiri Very attentive to the little details (he managed to surprise us on our daughter's birthday and organize the entire hotel staff together for the traditional song akuna matata).I'd like to point out Emiri's cool when the car had a mechanical malfunction and we got stuck on the road out of the way, and in less than a few minutes we were on a different vehicle that led us to the hotel .So Amiri, thank you very much for being so attentive to all off our needs ,you are the man!!!, We love you and we'll never forget you ,You really got into our hearts

  We booked a 5-day Safari and got an unforgettable trip full of amazing landscapes, beautiful animals, good food and much fun.

Our driver Amiri did his best to show... read more us all the animals we wanted to see. He always knew where to find them and get the best spot for the best view. He also entertained us with interesting facts and made us smile with his kind humour.

During the whole trip Kileo, our chef, was with us and supplied us with delicious and varied food. As desired we got vegetarian food and it’s possible to also ask for remain other special eating habits.

Overall it were absolutely incredible days and we would recommend everyone, who plans a safari in Tanzania, to join one of Bobby’s Camping Safaris.

  My friends and I went on a 5 day camping safari with Amiri as our guide and Kileo as our privat cook. The minute we got there we felt welcomed... read more by Amiris kind and humorous personality. We knew this will be a trip for the memories, but didn’t know how great the next days will be. We were so lucky to see the Big Five and even a cheetah, which happens so rarely and was super cool. Amiri knew all the cool spots and magically showed us all the animals we were looking forward to see.
By seeing how peaceful all the animals were, we all got a new understanding for them and their habitat.
The food which was prepared for us by Kileo was always very yummy and tasteful.
Both Kileo and Amiri were helpful, courteous and nice.

I would 10/10 recommend to go on a safari with Bobbys Camping Safari!:)
Thanks to everyone who was a part of this, you really made our stay unforgettable.

  We did a 5 day safari and had an incredibly great time! Everything was super organised and we felt comfortable at all times. During the 5 days, our driver Amiri... read more always gave us a great and funny ride and we saw every animal we dreamed of. We were also always well looked after with delicious food from our cook Kileo.
We decided to go on a camping safari because of our budget and it was the best decision. It is a unique experience to see a zebra grazing right next to your tent. Great recommendations and thank you for a great time. See you next year!

  My favorite experience during the safari was, that we were able to see so many different Nationalparks. Every one was very different and so beautiful.
Our Guide Amiri showed us... read more lots of amazing places and animals.
Our chef Kileo was cooking delicious breakfast, dinner and also Lunch(boxes) for us.
It was an unforgettable experience! Thank you for everyone who was a part of this journey.

  Very special thank to our guide/driver Amiri that was leading us with his own unique ,gentle, fully confidant way ,and with a lovely humour into unforgettable Safari - He knew... read more were to find many wild animals. For example, Chita and Leopard (and of course we got very close to them - and we even had Chita on our roof:).
He took us to very nice forest while the others find their way back.
His explanations about the animals and the nature were very clear and interesting.
Amiri was one of the main reasons that maid our journey to be so fun and full of experiences.
We always felt that we have someone that we can trust of.

All the lodges that we have visited in were great. They were located in main spots and beautiful sites and view.

The whole trip was lovely ,full of experiences, very interesting ,we saw a lot of animals and amazing views.
It was very special trip.

  We booked a 3-day safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Bobby Camping Safaris. We chose to sleep in basic camps in tents accommodating up to 2 people. We had a... read more driver/guide, a cook and a jeep on our disposal. They did their best to make our safari memorable – the chef surprised us with delicious food three times a day and the guide tried to show us as many wild animals as possible. They also answered all our questions about the animals and their behavior. Upon arrival in the campsites the guide prepared our tents, they were always clean and the conditions were much better than we expected.
The communication with the owner of the company prior to our trip was also a nice surprise – he always responded on time despite what time or day of the week was. He offered us a good price for the safari and his driver picked us up from the airport and dropped us off after the tour ended. I would highly recommend the services of Bobby Camping Safaris.
The only drawback is that the owner of the company was way too persistent to write him a review – something I would have done anyway. He kept on reminding me this every two days which can almost suspend someone from doing so. Anyway this is a reliable company offering affordable prices for quality safaris.

  We had for the second time, a great experience with Bobby Camping. It was amazing ! The landscapes, the tent experience in the parks, the animals... Our 4 girls trully... read more enjoyed it. Our guide, Ameri, was so funny and he is really a nice guy who always want to make pleasure to the whole family. He knows the different places and the animals habbits. Elias, our cooker, was a really nice guy also. And he cooks very well for us. It was varied and so tastfull !

  We enjoyed our trip incredibly much! Our amazing driver Amiri was really fun person who knew about the animals and nature a lot. Everyday we got to see beautiful views... read more and many animals that were really close to us. Lodges were really clean and comfortable. The weather was nice, not too hot. I would definitely recommend this adventure to everyone!! THANK YOU❤️

  Our stay in Tanzania was full of experiences, we met a lot of interesting people, we saw a lot of animals. Exciting was a three-day track in the wild. Our... read more guides Mr. Mr. Amiri and Mr. Elias were very professional and yet very friendly, we felt like family. Mr. Amiri is an excellent driver and guide, and the culinary art of Mr. Elias also deserves admiration. He even baked me a cake for my birthday and together with others he prepared some of the most beautiful birthdays of my life.

  Safari and treking from Ngorongoro to Lake Natron. It w as an unforgetable experience. The landscape here is out of planet Earth. Many thanks to all team - especially to... read more Mr. Amiri and Mr. Elias. We had a great fun with them.

  It could not have been any better!
We chose for Bobby Camping Safaris based on the good reviews here. From the beginning communication was smooth, fast and pleasant, both via... read more mail and whatsapp. Bobby suggested several options according to our preferences. We decided to go for the 6 day camping Safari, payed half the price in advance and booked our flights.
The unforgettable experience started a few weeks later. After landing in JRO airport our amazing guide Amiri picked us up and drove us to our Hotel in Arusha where we met Bobby to go over the last details of the trip. We spend the rest of the day exploring Arusha with its markets and lively neighbourhoods. The next morning we went of on our safari together with Amiri and Elias the master chef in charge of our well-being. From here onwards we had the most amazing time you could ever imagine. The large herds of elephants in Tarangire National Park took our breath away right from the start. The forests and shores of lake Manyara so rich in wildlife we did not know where to look first did so likewise. Both days we concluded in the super relaxed Twiga Campsite (which even has a pool) enjoying delicious food prepared by Elias . The third day went on the long drive to the Serengeti and oh my god were those vast plane impressive. We passed the site where some of the oldest remains of our human ancestors were discovered and dove right into an unbelievable world where all the animals we all know from our children’s books actually live. We could not believe our eyes. Amazing. During the two nights at the Nyanj campsite in the middle of the national park with the hyenas screaming and the lions roaring we could not believe our ears. Scary. 😉 The different safaris in the Serengeti held so many animals and nature sites for us. I don’t know which words to use to describe this. Lions, cheetahs, antipopes, hippos, giraffes, buffalos and leopards, just unbelievable.
The last night we spend in Simba Campsite right on the edge of the Ngorongoro crater. Early in the morning we went for our last safari right down into the crater where we were lucky enough to spot a rhinoceros and see much more unbelievably beautiful nature and many more incredible animals.

We left with memories to keep for the rest of our lives. Elias and Amiri were so much fun and we got to like each other a lot. At the end we were great travel companions.
Really, I could not imagine how it could have been any better. I can one hundred percent recommend this to everybody (who likes camping 😉 ).

We went in November 2021 with covid limiting travel for many tourists. This made many of the places we went to (not only on the safari but also there) less busy and therefore an even better experience. If you are hesitating, we always felt safe and there is no better time to visit than now! Send Bobby a message, pack your bags and go on this adventure.
