It took a while but the chimp trek was amazing. After 2hrs 45 minutes our guide heard from the tracker where the chimps were. It took us another half hour walk, then we heard an amazing racket. 30-40 chimps had cornered 3 colobus monkeys. 2 managed to escape but the third was caught, killed and eaten in the tree just above our heads. Our guide said that he had only seen this twice in 3 years.

About: Tanzania
Safari..10/10... accommodation/food.. poor
Overall rating
5/5

As far as Safaris go... fabulous. We saw the big 5 and most of them really close we almost could touch the animals So peaceful and beautiful

Excellent driver/guide

The accommodations .. another story. Very basic in comparison to Kenya
Spring lands Hotel is no more than a YMCA hostel in fact the first room we were given resembled a prison cell. The stench from the drain in the bathroom was like sewers. The second room was a slight improvement but we hardly slept. Not a good start to our trip that was not cheap. The second accommodation was an upgrade to coffee Lodge. Very nice. Serengeti Lodge was an upgrade but we had no hot water for 2 nights. It was also very cold. No attempt to give us hot water or keep us warm. No hot water bottles or lit fires
High field Hotel was like a cheap motel so complained and we were driven about 10 miles to Endora Lodge which was very nice
The upgrades that we had were what we would have expected anyway. The packed lunches were a disgrace. Full of carbodydrates I.e cake biscuits bread.. jam one day .. really? The occasional minute chicken drumstick and I mean minute. Hard boiled egg after eggs for breakfast .. hardly lunch We got children’s carton drinks a couple of times one being tamarind juice which was not to many people s taste
Very disappointed at this part

Amazing country!
Overall rating
5/5

The safari was amazing. Tanzania is a beautiful country. Zohar Safaris arranged a wonderful trip, with great food, accommodations and a very good driver. Seeing all the african animals in person was beyond expectations. Would totally recommend Tanzania as a travel destination for a once in a lifetime trip!

5/5

This was my 2nd safari and was looking forward to visiting Serengeti for a long time. Was absolutely blown away by the pristine natural beauty, spread of wildlife and amazing viewing. We were slightly unlucky with unexpected rains on a few days but we saw all the animals including big 5 (though Rhinos were quite far). Highlight for me was Ngorongoro crater, which is an absolute wonder of the world and I hope we preserve it for our future generations. The hotels and lodges were fantastic. The tour guide was OK, not exceptional.

Perfectly organized safari dedicated to wildlife photography
5/5

I have been to Africa several time, in the Serengeti three times, the last two with Safari Avventura and I can't wait to return there with them.

I am a wildlife photography enthusiast and I am always looking for tour operators able to adapt the itinary to my personal needs. Gianluca, Francis and the Safari Avventura team were very helpful in supporting me to organize everything according to my needs and the entire organization worked perfectly.

We followed a family of spectacular lions, with eleven cubs, witnessed the meal and a spectacular and dramatic hunting scene; we met leopards and cheetahs with cubs and observed moving migration. In short, I had confirmation of the absolute beauty of the Serengeti and I discovered a new accessible and customizable way of organizing my trip.

Waiting for my return to Serengeti I strongly recommend Safari Avventura as one of the best tour operators I have met during my trips in Africa.

This Lake is Seriously Stunning!
5/5

Lake Bunyonyi is seriously stunning, I can truly say!!. From the beautiful green hills to the countless pristine fingers of the lake, this is a place that one could sit and gaze at the beauty for ages.
Though activities at the lake are limited, there are a few worth mentioning:
For the casual or avid birder, get your binoculars ready. You are likely to find one for your life list.
The boat ride is well worth the money, that is arranged from the side of Freka African Holidays. The ride takes you out to places such as animal island where you will see Zebra and Impala.
Stop at Bunyonyi Safaris Resort was good and dive into the lake from the diving plank or the elevated platform, if you are brave enough. Before you are leaving the overland make sure you order the Crawfish pizza. It is fantastic, but make sure you order any food an hour before you want to eat.
Lake Bunyonyi is a not to miss place to visit! Thanks to Freka African Holidays for this amazing tour.

Experience to Kigali on 3-day trip
5/5

For a wonderful gorilla trekking, I booked a tour package of 3-days trip for Bwindi Impenetrable National Park with Ngoni Safaris Uganda. About this travel agency, it is really very attentive to my needs and kind of so helpful. During the 3-days trip, my guide was Nelson, has been really very nice and is a friendly nature and talkative guide indeed. I will like to regard him as my travelling partner instead. I would like to show my great gratitude towards him, particularly for his great skill to travel in great rain in the first day of tour from Kampala to the Bwindi. About Accommodation, the lodges they arranged, were also great and nice, both in the nights in Bwindi were amazing. That was my first trip to Uganda, Africa and this tour was such a wonderful journey for me. Just because of their efforts and arrangement, I suggest this agency to every other traveller, to go through this area as well.
