best safari experience
We went on a 2-day Safari-trip to Mikumi NP Tanzania.
Gecko adventure was very reliable and answered quickly to all questions I asked per mail in advance. They called to confirm the Pick-up and were more than friendly. The Pick-up at the Hotel was on time and the Driver and tour-guide (Chris) was professional, well-informed and looked after us and our wishes. Thanks to him we saw a lot of wild animals and got informations about them.
Highly recommended!

Brilliant
Our guide Said was brilliant. said was very informative and friendly and willing to answer to a lot of questions.
The accommodation was great!
The only thing was the long travel without air conditioning unit (5 hours going and almost 8 hours coming back in the city), under 35 degrees.
But overall. It was an impressive, well-organized Safari trip!

Two great days in Mikumi
We spent two days with Gecko in Mikumi. We had some unforgettable moments with lions and elephants only a couple of meters from the jeep. Our guide was very nice and helpful during the trip. I would definitely travel with Gecko again.

Safari exceeded expectations.
My wife and I would definitely recommend Gecko Adventure.
We had excellent and prompt communication with Rama throughout.
We chose the 5 Day Vast Selous Train Safari.
Rama picked us up from our hotel in Dar Es Salaam and escorted us to the train station with clear written instructions for the train journey.
The train was a great way to start the safari.
We were warmly greated by our guide Said at the station.
The 2 day stay at Sable Mountain Lodge was amazing. Staff, food and accomodation were excellent.
The 2 day stay at Selous River Camp was equally impressive.
Said was very knowledgable with a lovely manner. We could not have hoped for a better guide. We absolutely loved our game drives with him.
We have waited a long time to go on a safari and are happy we chose
Gecko Adventure.

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.

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.
