2-day trip to Mikumi - fantastic experience
We were a family of four (two kids, 12 and 15 y o) that hade the opportunity to go with Gecko to Mikumi from Dar (and back).
The communication before the trip was flawless and the guide and driver, Said, was an absolute pleasure to be travelling with. He was extremely knowledgeable and had a knack for finding exactly the right spots to look for the animals. Also, we learned a lot about Tanzania as a country driving through the countryside together with him.
We were very happy to have chosen the two-day trip. The two days were very different in terms of the animals we saw - and the first day we were lucky enough to see both lions and elephants very close by.
We can only recommend Gecko to others that may consider the same type of trip.

Great short safari
I set up a last-minute safari to Mikumi National Park with Gecko Adventure. They picked me up in Dar and we drove to Mikumi (about 7 hours because of all the heavy traffic leaving Dar). The accommodations at Camp Bastion were great and the game drives fantastic. My guide, Anthony, did a great job and I was amazed at all of the animals we saw - lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippos, crocodiles, impala, eland, baboons, jackals, etc. Overall, it was a fantastic trip.

Dependable, Highly Qualified, Professional, Friendly Tour Operator
We had a fantastic time with Gecko tours. Several colleagues and I were headed to Tanzania for a conference and wanted to do a small safari ahead of time. Gecko was easy to work with and helped us develop a great itinerary that fit our needs, even though these changed a bit during the booking process. Said, our guide, was absolutely fantastic. He has a wealth of information, was incredibly well prepared at all times, and was simply a pleasure to spend time with. We all also deeply appreciated how respectful of the animals he was. We saw several other tour operators invade animals' space (once even driving buffalo away from the watering hole) and be too aggressive trying to get too close but Said never did this. Instead, he had a knack for knowing where they would go if we just sat still and were quiet for a few minutes. We could not have asked for anything more than Gecko provided and cannot recommend them highly enough.
