4 Days safari Remote Selous Game Reserve
We got 4 wonderful safari days, that Gecko organized in The Selous. They planned a trip according all our wishes. When I specified our wishes they always responded immediately. Safari started, when our guide picked us from the airport He was solely for us. The safari was very flexible and we were able to take pictures of animals and nature for as long as we always wanted. The guide was very knowledgeable. We had one walking safari, one all-day car safari,half day car safari and half day boat safari. This was a good combination and I can recommend it. So Safari did not become too heavy and we enjoyed all the activities. Trip length was very good, shouldn't be shorter.
If you want to get reliable and responsible tour operator, we recommend the Gecko Adventures

Amazing experience start to finish
My husband and I used Gecko Adventure Tanzania for a private safari in Mikumi Park and have had a brilliant experience! They have been prompt and friendly in responding to my (many) enquirers and have proactively suggested many options to personalize our safari to best suite our needs.
We were picked up on time by a highly experienced and professional guide who took interest in what we were most interested in and tailored our tour. My husband really wanted to see lions and despite his efforts to find them they were hiding during the days but our guide Msafiri made calls throughout the day to some of the local guides and rangers and found a number of lions for us to see!
I highly recommend the company and would happily use them again in the future!
Thank you Gecko Adventure Tanzania for such a wonderful experience!

Reliable company
We were very satisfied with the service, and we felt that the company cares about the details. The communication before and during traveling was excellent. The entire trip was very well organized, and it was a good value for the money. I didn't feel ripped off, I got exactly the same service I requested.
Just one comment: However our guide was a very knowledgeable guy, he didn't share too much information on his own, unless we asked him to do so (then he went into the details, and explained many things).
I would definitely chose this company again.

very good safari experience would book again with gecko
very good experience with gecko. the communication was very good (and quick). all our questions were answered. Everything was arranged without flaws from being picked up at the airport, to lodges, games drives to support by checking in for the return flight. The guide was good knowledgeable and very good for the kids (7 + 10 years). I would have absolutely no hesitation to recommend gecko and would happily book again myself.

Amazing fauna and flora discover
Safari tour was very well organized.
Our driver Samir was also a very good guide, always trying to find animals, even when they were totally hidden. Lions , elephants were really closed of the car.
I recommend Gecko/Samir.

Excellent! Highly recommended!
We went to 2-days Selous safari with Gecko (from Zanzibar). Everything was great! Excellent service, much better than we could expect (even when we found out it's a real problem to print the booking with flight tickets in Zanzibar - asked Rama and they printed everything for us and brought us with the pick up to the hotel; when we came back, and it was really hot, the transfer to the hotel waited for us with wet towels for refreshment; really outstanding service!). Everything was fixed and well organized, had not even one issue with anything. Thank you very very much! From our experience - you are the best in Tanzania!!!:)

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.
