Thank you Msofi!! 10 DAYS MID- RANGE SAFARI
We start in Kilimanjaro airport (closest airport) and then got a transfer to Arusha town (1,1.5hr apart, have to plan for transfer) the base of where the Serengeti safaris begin. It was like a couple weeks out and I was looking for a Land Cruiser, safari jeep to rent to go ourselves. We like doing things like that but the disadvantage after hindsight is that we wouldn’t know all the spots to look for things and they have a radio with all the other game drivers and they like to help each other out with sightings and spotting to find things. We wouldn’t have seen much if we dont have our guide being able to understand and have connections. They do help out self driving people though but you’d probably have to speak Swahili or maybe there’s a channel for tourist self driver who speak English only. That would be fun, but we wanted to get the most out of it the one time at least. https://www.roadtripafrica.com/travel-blog/your-ultimate-guide-to-self-driving-the-serengeti/ this was the thing I looked into, but luckily it was sold out lol. So last minute I was just going through random websites and found https://www.kiwoitoafricasafaris.com/ we’re very lucky we had an amazing tour guide (they’re all in one game driver/guide) who works for a company (local owned). So glad we met Mr. Festo Msofi, highly highly recommend him spending 10 days together with him and it really makes the trip to have someone you trust and is chill or cool vibe wise. And he’s really good at what he does. I can’t describe how much we love him. We met another guide and we wouldn’t have vibed honestly. I shared this with a good friend, and hope anyone definitely ask for him if yall do Serengeti.
Oh yeah and Jesca was great, she worked with us back and forth to get the perfect itinerary, very communicative and willing to work with us closely. We booked this last minute so appreciate it working out and we went through many proposal revision for an almost custom 10 day safari trip in Seregenti.
Thanks a lot Msofi!!
