Unbeatable overall experience
This 14-day trip was my fifth safari with Dusty Roads, with Geoff as my guide for each one, and each time is better than the previous. Dusty Roads has “default” accommodations for certain locations that I enjoy, and I trust their suggestions for other locations. They can also suggest a variety of activities (which I have used on other trips) such as hot air balloons (Serengeti), night game drive (Tarangire), aerial walkway (Lake Manyara), and cultural visits (Maasai, Hadzabe, Datoga).
Geoff can spot animals with the naked eye that I have trouble seeing with binoculars, and he knows my interests so well by now that, for instance, he pointed out a sycamore fig tree growing on the trunk of an acacia (just because it is unusual), and will stop for anything from an elephant to a butterfly. The highlights included a hyena den with two very young pups; a serval cat; a hyena struggling to keeps its gazelle carcass away from two jackals and a horde of vultures; and a herd of wildebeest and zebras in eastern Serengeti that was in the tens of thousands. Also MANY lions, several leopards, half a dozen cheetahs, a big Nile monitor lizard, and the expected countless elephants and other animals large and small.
All in all, a wonderful trip. I will be going back for more.
The overall arrangement is satisfactory
The whole trip was very smooth, the guide took us to see a good scenery, but also very lucky to see a lot of animals, took a lot of good-looking photos. The guide was very nice and we had a nice chat.
Great team got me up Kilimanjaro
An amazing team of porters, a cook and a guide (Abdul) supported me in my journey up Kilimanjaro. Abdul was very informative - initially meeting me at the hotel and making sure I had the right gear, and then always making sure I was prepared for the next days hike while on the mountain. He was knowledgeable about Tanzania too and told me stories of the different tribes who make up the country. The rest of the team were supportive and friendly. I left feeling I had gotten more than my money's worth and would totally recommend these guys - they went above and beyond at each step to make me feel welcomed.
An amazing experience which I plan to repeat!
Everything was well organized, punctual and for a fair price. Jeff, our driver, was good and knowledgeable about animals, birds and plants. We had the chance to see 4 of the big five and, this thanks to the good eyes of Jeff. We appreciated that our vehicle was always keeping a respectful distance from the animals.
Vehicle clean and in good condition, we always felt safe.
Thank you for making our first experience in Tanzania a pleasant and memorable one!
Outstanding Kilimanjaro and Safari tour. Pole Pole all the way!
My fiance and I recently climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro and completed 7 days safari with Dusty Roads Tours after the climb. They were an excellent company from start to finish. We had a fabulous time on the mountain with an outstanding porter team and two wonderful guides. We hit a terrible blizzard on our ascent day/night and we would not have made it to the summit without them! Many climbers did not make the summit that day. The food was excellent during our hiking tour and the service, camping gear, and tents were top notch.
After the mountain, we enjoyed safaris in Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. Jeff was our guide and was an excellent driver and outstanding safari guide. He was incredible in how he could spot so many animals from such a distance. I know why he has earned the name "eagle eye!" He was also so knowledgeable about all other animals which was wonderful for us to learn about their behaviors and habitats. We had such a fantastic week with him and we highly recommend him as a guide and driver.
We loved our time in Tanzania from start to finish and we cannot wait to come back again with Dusty Roads.
