great 5 days in Selous
5/5

I went with Kanuth Adventures to Selous from Dar in December for 5 days. Both our driver/ guide Immanuel and the cook Joseph were very nice and did a great job. We spent the first and the last night in Hippo Camp just outside of Selous Reserve, doing a nice boat tour on the evening of the first and a walking safari on the morning of the last day. The three days in between we spent in Selous, camping at Lake Tagalala (thus staying right in the middle of the reserve and not losing unnecessary time driving in and out). There were not as many animals as you see in the pictures from Serengeti, but I very much enjoyed the experience as we did find lots of animals (lions, elephants, hippos, crocodiles, various monkey, giraffes, water bucks, impalas, warthog, wild dogs (!) ...) but it was really being out in the wild without too many cars around. Food was excellent and Immanuel was a good guide and a safe driver. We had some problems with the car one morning but Kanuth organised a replacement car and a mechanic so that was solved in reasonable time. Great trip at avery reasonable price! Thank you!!!

Great Experience with Kanuth
5/5

Myself and my partner travelled with Kanuth on their 3 days/2night safari. The owner Kanuth was very nice a long with his driver/guide Emanuel. We saw all of the animals on our list and they were extremely accommodating to us when we needed to be back in Dar by a certain time. Be ready for a long bumpy drive to the Selous reserve area and the toilet facilities on the drive are not good. But everything in the camp is perfect and exactly what would be expected. We had an amazing trip-thanks all!!

3days/2Night Selous Game Reserve
5/5

Great value for money, good combination of boat, 4x4 and walking safari. Although there were only the two of us, we had two people accompany us, one as a driver and guide, and the other as a cook. Other staff came to our hotel as well, just to greet us!
We had a very kind and great driver/guide, Emanuel, who not only taught us a lot about the safari, but also about Tanzania in general. Always smiling. Our cook, Joseph was also good. We had great fun, and we really thank the two as well as Kanuth Adventure Safaris!
We can really recommend them!

3 Days in Selous Game Reserve
5/5

Amazing experience that went beyond all expectations!!
Everything went smooth and we enjoy every moments, the driver and cook (Tony and Joseph) were really friendly and professionals and did their best to make sure we had the best experience.
The Hippo camp was also great with friendly manager and staff and superb views of the river.
Kanuth was always quick to respond, friendly and was checking on us to make sure that we were happy.
He also booked the ferry tickets for us to Zanzibar and one hotel night in Stone Town to help us out.
The boat safari was cool and the game drive was just amazing, we saw all animals that is possible to see in Selous and lots of them!! including hyenas and wild dogs!
Not so sure on the walking safari though.. would have preferred a half day game drive instead.
To sum it up, this company has feel of a small family run business which deal with his customers on a personal level and care about them. Now I am already thinking to visit Tanzania again for another safari adventure...

11 days with 3 kids
5/5

We had a wonderful African adventure when our kids were 10,13,and 15 years old. As a kick off for our 2 month adventure we had an 11 day safari with Kanuthi. I enthusiastically recommend this for any family with a taste for adventure. The safari was a wonderful way to connect with each other. There are none of the usual commercial type of distractions that invade most holiday spots. Kanuthi is a fantastic man who really listened to our intrests and made it happen. He joined in with our family and quickly became our friend. We all treasure this memory. Our trip was a few years ago, I am so happy to see all the great reviews. It seems that Kanuthi. has attracted a great team of people. Go to Africa and take a safari with Kanuthi. You will love it!

Great, smooth, enjoyable experience in Selous.
5/5

We took a 3 day tour to Selous. Tony picked us up from the hotel early morning and we drove to the hippo camp with a couple bathroom/lunch stops, the ride takes about 7 hours. When we arrived we went straight for the boat tour where you can see crocs and hippos. The rooms are nice with 2 single beds and a private bathroom, very basic but overall good. The staff of the hotel is very nice and the food is very tasty and abundant. Second day Tony droves in the reserve and made sure we saw as much animal as possible, plenty of hippos, impalas, zebras, giraffesand birds, we also managed to spot a family of elephants and a family of lions. Third day is a walking tour, we didn't see a lot of animals but the guide was very nice and explained us a lot about the trees and animals. Around the hotel there are plenty of squirrels, monkeys and baboons. Special thanks to Tony for being an awesome guide. Very enjoyable tour, we highly recommend Kanuth for your safari experience.

Great tour
5/5

Our guide Vumi who was also our driver was really patient with us. He introduced us to the different types of animals and helped us spot the big 5. He never once told us to hurry up even when we are late. The whole safari trip was a wonderful experience. It was an unforgettable experience.
