02-Oct-2024

We had an amazing 10 days in Tanzania, with Seif as the best guide we could have asked for! Sana Wild Experience is a personable agency that pays great attention to detail, designing the perfect itinerary based on our vision for an African adventure. Seif made us feel safe and comfortable as he guided us through diverse landscapes, always finding incredible wildlife and showing endless patience. When a hotel booking issue arose, Seif quickly resolved it by arranging an even better lodge for us. Our last two days were spent at the base of Kilimanjaro, where Seif organized a peaceful and scenic walk through the coffee-growing areas around the mountain, allowing us to spend time with the locals. We highly recommend Sana Wild Experience and Seif! Gracias!!

06-Sep-2022

We spent 6 full days with a dedicated and very well educated guide (Seif) who has a vast experience with photographic safaris (18 years..). He knows every detail of what somebody coming from Europe wants to see in Africa. One possibility to reduce long distance travels by car is to make part of the trip by plane, mainly the way back once you have finished the visit to the main parks. Altogether, the price-quality ratio is phantastic. Seif also speaks Spanish very very well and knows the specific names of all animals and birds in Spanish. Very recommended for Spanish tourists. We saw a lion chasing a wildebeest (the full sequence!).

Viaje impresionante!

29-Jan-2024

Mi pareja y yo llevábamos tiempo queriendo hacer un safari, para mi era el viaje de mi vida, iba con las expectativas muy altas pero lo ha superado con creces! Todo ha sido maravilloso, el guía Seif el mejor que nos podía haber tocado, muy pendiente de nosotros, siempre con el coche limpio y pendiente que no nos faltara nada, de bebida, de comida, de comodidad, etc. Ademas éramos los únicos que teníamos picnic durante los safaris, el resto tenía sándwiches, nosotros platos con comida caliente. También Seif tiene mucha experiencia y nos ha sabido llevar por sitios que otros no iban y hemos visto todos los animales que se podían ver. Para nosotros ha sido un viaje increíble y esperamos volver pronto con Seif!

18-Apr-2025

I had the most unforgettable experience traveling to Serengeti National Park with Sana Wild Experience. Huge thanks to Mr. Seif, who went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect from start to finish. He’s not only incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and the area, but also super friendly, passionate, and professional. Thanks to him, I saw the Big Five and learned so much about the Serengeti. Every moment felt personal and special. The accommodations, food, and overall service were top-notch. You can really tell this company cares deeply about creating authentic, once-in-a-lifetime safari experiences. Thank you again Mr. Seif and the whole Sana Wild Experience team—I’ll never forget this trip!

29-Nov-2023

The best experience of my life. This summer, in August, we traveled to Tanzania to go on a Safari. Seif along with two companions were our guides. An unforgettable trip, without a doubt. Seif and his colleagues are professionals and helped us see animals and landscapes that will remain in my retina forever. If you want to live an unforgettable experience, choose Sana Wild Experience, because not only are they super prepared, but they also have a big heart and are very friendly. Thanks Seif.

10-Aug-2024

Phenomenal safari experience to see spectacular wildlife and landscapes. Seif is a very good guide because he knows the terrain very well but he also drives very well and he made sure that we had a good experience on a 7-day private safari in different parks. He selected very good hotels and gave us very good food, but also in a very friendly and fun atmosphere. In July 2024
