We just came home from two weeks spent in Tanzania, (June 2025). We could not have had a more knowledgeable, experienced, and enjoyable guide than we had in Frank. He was simply amazing. We were advised to be honest with our guide and let him know what kind of safari we wanted, so I took them at their word. We told Frank what we wanted to see and learn, and he delivered. No matter how many times we asked him to teach us about the animals and plants we saw, he always had something new to tell us. No matter how many times I asked to stop and take a picture, he not only stopped, but he continually repositioned the jeep so that I would get the best angle and lighting.

Each and every day, Frank showed up ready to WOW us. In the end, we saw all of the big 5, and most of them more than once. I can’t even list all of the animals he found for us, and most of them were close enough to touch. When he heard over the radio that a specific animal was nearby, he raced to get us as close as possible. After only a few short days, we were able to spot many of the animals from the open roof ourselves, and Frank eagerly got us as close as possible to either take photos or just watch nature do what it does.

Frank is an excellent guide with years of experience. When we stopped alongside the other jeeps to exchange information, it was obvious that Frank is well respected among the other guides. He always knew when and where to spot the animals, and he never stopped looking.

Besides being courteous and respectful, Frank has a wonderful sense of humor and an amazing laugh. He loves sharing things about his culture, and he is just as interested in learning about yours. I strongly recommend using Frank as your safari guide!

We had multiple days of safari with Frank who is very kind and enthousiastic. He goes above and beyond to show you all the beautiful nature there is. He is also always available for a good laugh. Would really recommend!

Just got back from Tanzania – what an unforgettable trip! Our guide Frank made it truly special. He handled everything: driving, schedules, luggage, and shared great stories along the way.

We saw tons of wildlife – lions, elephants, even rhinos up close! Frank knows all the parks like the back of his hand and works with other guides to find animals fast. He even surprised us with cool local experiences, like a coffee plantation visit.

Frank’s friendly, professional, and goes the extra mile. If you want a stress-free safari where you’ll see everything, book with him. 10/10 would recommend!

An unforgettable experience with my family exploring the beautiful Tanzanian safaris, local communities, and beautiful lodges/hotels to relax.

Our tour guide Frank was with us every day to assist with luggage, the schedule, and of course driving us every where while sharing amazing stories. Frank made the trip experience very smooth and also very lively! We had tons of fun and learned so much from his experience in the towns and the nature parks. The guides communicate as a team over the radio to share where the animals are located in parks so that we were able to see as many of all the beauty in real life during the Game Drives.

Frank was also well prepared to suggest local experiences such as coffee plantation where we had such an amazing time with the locals.

I would highly recommend going on a safari vacation with him!

Frank is really a one of a kind guide who will go the extra mile for you. Kind and caring, knows much about wild life, teaches you the best Swahili words and helps you to spot the rarest animals (amongst others the big five). If I ever come back to Tanzania, it will definitely be with Frank (and probably to climb kilimanjaro together). Much love from the Netherlands and Frank always has a place to stay in the Netherlands when he comes over!

We had an incredible safari, and our guide Frank made it truly special! He was an excellent driver, navigating the rough terrain with ease and always taking us to the best spots to see wildlife up close.

He also had a great eye for finding the perfect angles, making our experience even more exciting. On top of that, he used a professional camera to take amazing photos for us, which we’ll cherish forever.

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, skilled, friendly and funny guide, we highly recommend him. Thank you for making our safari unforgettable! Get him +255 764746208

I and my husband had a great experience with Frank our guide at Arusha game park. We had a great time see the wildlife some I had not seen like the warthog it was great.

My husband and I went on safari from the end of February to mid-March 2025. To say our experience was life-changing is an understatement, and we owe it ALL to our guide, Frank.

As you will find out, there are many tour companies to choose from and they often have similar itineraries. What will set your experience apart from everyone else’s, however, is your guide – and Frank is simply the best. Not only is he knowledgeable about the animals themselves, but he knows their migration patterns, their environmental preferences, and the nuances of their everyday lives for each season. Because of this, we had numerous up-close encounters where it was just us and the animals … and let me tell you, that is a RARITY. For example, typically when there was an unusual sighting, a call would go out to the nearby guides, and within minutes there would be a number of Land Cruisers, circled around, competing for viewing space. Not with Frank! Instead, he was the guide locating the animals without assistance, and often the one to place the call to others.

Frank was also incredibly attentive and flexible. He recommended starting and ending times that fit with our preferences. He was early to pick us up and would pivot to return later if we wanted to see another part of the park. He had a diverse itinerary and prioritized the animals we wanted to see (even if it meant stopping for the 100th time so I could see another Pumba … a.k.a. the underrated animal of the savanna, haha). He even accounted for the little details like re-parking to ensure we had the best photo opportunities, choosing different sites to avoid crowds, and knowing almost intuitively when we wanted to stay a little longer with a certain animal. I can tell you, not every guide did this for their guests.

Frank was also very personable, which you will learn is very important. On safari, people usually have one driver for the entire time. Frank spoke very good English, was funny, and was friendly. This made the hours we spent together every day easy and enjoyable.

Aside from the standard safari experience, below are a few other moments that show who Frank is as a person, a friend, and the best guide there is:

– He bought some of the local tribes bags of specific maize/corn flour, knowing they would have to travel a far distance to get anything similar. They were incredibly thankful.

– He got us a bottle of champagne so we could celebrate our last day on safari and found us a secluded place with an elephant herd to enjoy it (it was magical).

– One of the parts in our Land Cruiser loosened a bit due to the roads (it was nothing critical to our journey). We found out Frank drove three hours that night to ensure he had the proper part to fix it, if it loosened further. He got a hotel in that town and drove back that morning to ensure we could leave by 6 a.m. We were shocked. He told us it was worth it to ensure we had a seamless trip.

– He sent us the photos he took from his camera while on safari. Mind you, Frank is a photographer and sells his photos for profit. He wouldn’t let us pay him for any of them.

– I lost a stone from one of my rings near our lodge. I didn’t notice until we left for a different park. We later found out Frank had called the lodge, the parent company of the lodge, and the other guides to continuously check in to see if they found it, and considered even going back to check himself. When we told him he didn’t need to worry about it because things happen, he still went out of his way to take us back to the shop for a replacement.

– After we returned home, he followed up with us to make sure we had a safe journey.

I have tried to write this review many times, but struggled to find a way to detail the highlights of our trip, while also capturing the gravity that Frank brought to our experience. We were simply blown away by the safari but also by Frank.

This review does not do our experience justice. However, in short, anyone would be lucky to have Frank as their guide and Lulu African Safaris as their tour company.

Our expectations were high when we first met Frank, our guide, knowing we’d be spending twelve days together. By the trip’s end, saying goodbye felt like parting with a dear friend (and we think it was just that!). Frank’s guidance transformed our safari into a truly life-altering experience. His extensive experience was immediately apparent in his deep understanding of the Serengeti and the other parks. He possessed an uncanny ability to navigate us directly to the incredible wildlife we had hoped to see. We were so happy to have seen so many different animals, from black rhinos and vast zebra herds to enormous elephants, lion families, and even the surprisingly delightful warthogs! He was even able to arrange for us to see some wild dogs.

Frank’s expertise went far beyond simply identifying animals. He shared a wealth of fascinating knowledge about the ecosystems, local customs, and the critical importance of conservation, which made the trip that much better.

What truly elevated our experience was Frank’s genuine warmth and care, both for us and the different communities we passed through. He thoughtfully personalized our itinerary to match our interests, surprised us with champagne to celebrate our anniversary, and consistently sought opportunities to support local communities. His patience was remarkable as he answered our constant stream of questions and even taught us some Swahili during our drives. It was evident that he holds a deep respect for the animals and the people of Tanzania. We were particularly moved by his dedication to responsible tourism and his efforts to give back, which truly reflected his exceptional character. He consistently made us feel welcome and valued.

Frank’s blend of profound knowledge and heartfelt warmth, coupled with his obvious passion for Tanzania, was evident in every aspect of our journey. He ensured we had the most incredible experience imaginable, and we departed with cherished memories and a deep appreciation for the stunning beauty of Tanzania’s parks. We wholeheartedly recommend Frank and Lulu African Safaris – they are truly outstanding. If you’re looking for a safari that is both exhilarating and deeply meaningful, this is it. Our experience was a perfect five stars, and we will always be grateful for Frank, our friend, who made our dream safari a reality.

Lulu African Safari went above and beyond to make sure our experience was exceptional. Helpful, knowledgeable and accommodating frankie and his team provided all things necessary for a very memorable experience. We highly recommend them for your safari adventure!!
