Great Tour, Great Accommodations, Great Guide
Madukha Tours provided great communication in advance of the trip, and was very responsive to emails. I believe all were answered within 24 hours. Itinerary was provided, ahead of time, and Stephen our driver/guide was always prompt, courteous, and flexible. We had a great time spending the week with him getting to know him as well as learning about everything we saw. Everything went very smoothly. Stephen networked very effectively with the other guides to stay on top of animal movements/activities in the parks.
I have no complaints whatsoever, as the trip was almost perfect, however I thought I'd provide a few "be awares":
-Our vehicle was an older van and did break down twice. Once was a simple loose battery cable, fixed within minutes by Stephen, the second was a wire that got severed. This was fixed in town within an hour (and they had a contingency vehicle lined up if it hadn't gotten fixed quick). These vehicles do take a beating, so this is certainly understandable.
-There is not a lot of room for excess luggage. While this was a "group" tour, it was the off season, and we ended up the only two. We don't travel light to start with, and were doing other travels besides the safari. If there were 5 or 6 of us and everyone had 2 bags per person I don't think we'd all have fit.
-Water was provided only on the 2 days with a very long drive between sites, and no snacks were provided. (There were plenty of opportunities to pick some up at rest stops however, just know to plan to bring/buy what you need)
-Be prepared for anything that needs to be paid directly, as in the remote areas, credit card isn't always doable, and ATMs are not always easily accessible (ie the Maasai area).
-Generally: You are going on "safari" to be a spectator of nature and nature often has its own plans. Each day may have its own unexpected twists and turns. Relax, go with the flow, enjoy the journey, and you will have a great time!
Great Guide and Great Lodge!
Excellent safari in all regards - from a great guide to a phenomenal lodge (Tawi) - would highly recommend!
Tansania 7 days safari
We did a 7 days Tanzania safari. Overall we had a very nice trip and have seen a lot. The lodges were awsome and the animals just amazing. The price for value is good and the communication with the agency was fast and easy. The guide did a good job during the safari. Unfortunately he get in touch with us again two weeks after the safari and asked us for money for his family - not what you expect from upper price safari tour.
Great service and fantastic communication from Madukha.
Our Safari holiday was an absolutely amazing experience. We saw the big 5 and so much more.
Our guide Bill was incredible, so accommodating and flexible.
The whole booking process was seamless, great communication via email from the outset.
The accommodation at all parks was very comfortable with good food.
Overall, we made memories that will last a lifetime, seeing these majestic animals in their own environment. Highly recommend.
Good Tour
We had a good tour with lots of adventures. Communication with William was good from the beginning. Answers were swift and usually helpful. Were picked up at the airport without any troubles. Lodges/Camps were not high class but all well, clean and fit for the trip you're doing. Food was all fine as well.
The Land Cruiser was a somewhat older vehicle which had quite an amount of milage, but it ran smoothly. One car issue was dealt with, without any interferance to our tour.
Our driver was more of a driver than a guide. With the radio connection he was in contact with others and always tried to get us to the propper spots, however there was hardly any information about the things we see, about the animals and so on. So if you're looking for a guide as well, this might be a consideration
Overall we are happy and would return in case of coming back.
