Sian listened to what we were looking for and made great suggestions. Her communication was great.
We were looking to explore two different areas in Botswana. Sian listened to what we wanted and helped create a great itinerary for us within our budget. We enjoyed our time at Ghoha Hills lodge. Our guide, rooms, and the staff were all great. The location up on the hill overlooking the watering hole was beautiful. I would recommend the lodge. We also enjoyed Khwai Lediba. We weren’t sure if it would feel as “polished” since it was brand new, but clearly African Bush Camps know what they are doing. Our guide was from the area and knew exactly where to go to see what we wanted and entertained us with stories along the way. The rooms and the staff were also great. The lodge area is not as big as Ghoha Hills but the rooms were beautiful and they utilize every space (for example, having pregame drive breakfasts by the beautiful fire pit). This camp was built right by the delta- I am sure it is spectacular when it is surrounded by water. We had elephants walking through camp at night. The variety of the two camps was exactly what we were looking for. The Savuti area was dry and the Khwai / Moremi areas gave us more of the delta experiences (mokoro excursion, hippos, crocs) while still allowing for game drives. Sian guided us in the right direction and every detail was taken care of (flights, vouchers, advice about tipping). It was a wonderful family experience for us with our 21 and 23 year olds.

DAVID a great professional and friendly safari guide
From Manyara to Natron lake, via Tarengire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro, David shared with us his deep knowledge about wildlife and his love for his wonderful country and cultures, he drove carefully and even helped to rescue other tourists whose vehicle was not as reliable as Lomo’s 4x4. David is fluent in French which was highly appreciated by our children of 10 & 12. Well organised, friendly, devoted to our comfort and security, we are very grateful to David for making unforgettable our trip in Tanzania.

Wonderfull Safari
I visited with my family the most important parks in Tanzania with Safari Avventura. our guide Omary, very knowledgeable and nature lover, made us fall in love with everything around us; Baraka, our driver helped make our holiday unforgettable with his unfailing smile and concern for us. the organization was flawless; we really appreciated the fact that every morning the car was clean, internally and externally, that the picnic was not with simple lunch boxes but with respectable foods; from rice to chicken, beef, vegetables, fruit, dessert, complete with tablecloths, cutlery and steel crockery that are always clean. during the last evening my son had a very high fever and vomiting and Gianluca and Fransis immediately gave us the most complete willingness to face the problem even though it was late at night, sending us an Italian-speaking assistant to the lodge who accompanied us to the hospital and followed in all bureaucratic procedures. chapeau!!!!!

Ask for James and Silas - Maasai Mara experience for wildebeest and zebra crossing
Highly recommend!! Ask for James and Silas - James helps with bookings and Silas will ensure you have an incredible safari full of animal sightings/photos and of course fantastic hospitality. We stayed at the Rhino Camp that is close to the Masaai Mara; the cooks are wonderful and make very tasty food.
On our safari, Silas made sure we saw wildcats in the wild and also his experience gave us a good chance to witness a Wildebeest Migration/Crossing. Wow , wow, wow. Words are not enough to highlight how happy and awesome it will make you feel. Nature is beyond imagination.
Thank you so much Silas and James!

Meijo magic in Tanzania!
I can highly recommend Meijo Safaris. We booked ‘The Best of Safari, Lake Eyasi & Lake Natron’ with mid-range accommodation.
Meijo is a small company that gives you the personal touch. I was impressed that Daudi, the owner, met us at the airport and saw us off the following day. He also met us on our return.
They put together the perfect tour for us to appreciate the best of Tanzanian Safari in the short time we were there. Daudi was easily contactable to discuss options and answer our questions.
We were happy with all our accommodation and were lucky enough to be upgraded twice due to availability.
We could not have asked for a better driver and guide, Herman/Superman/Super/Soops. He is a very experienced guide and well known to all the tour guides. His eagle-eyed spotting of big and small wildlife blew our minds. We were often ‘ahead of the pack (other tour operators)’ with spotting and we were so grateful that he was respectful to the wildlife and their space. Herman was a true gentleman which is important because you land up spending a lot of time with your guide on a trip like this.
I will always have fond memories of our picnic lunches. Due to our dietary requirements we were served hot meals in the middle of nowhere. Amazing!
If you want to do a similar trip to ours please be prepared to spend a lot of time in a car covering large distances. The roads were often in bad condition so it can be hard going but totally worth it!
We received numerous quotes from other operators and believed this tour was very well priced. We were also very pleased to be able to support Tanzanian businessmen who are passionate about their country’s natural wonders.
Thank you Meijo for an experience of a lifetime!

Amazing experiences
We embarked on a private 2-day fly-in, fly-out safari from Zanzibar. Initially, I was somewhat skeptical due to the limited number of reviews I found on the site. However, from the very first moment of communication, I had positive experiences. Our agent, Mohammed, facilitated the entire process—quote requests, payments, and sharing of details—with smoothness and promptness. The entire experience was well-organized; we didn't experience any delays over the course of these two days.
The taxi arrived punctually, and we were transported to the airport, where we were received and guided until departure. Upon landing, our driver awaited us, commencing our game drive. We also enjoyed a delightful breakfast with coffee and tea by the lakeside. Our driver was not only experienced but also amiable, affording us the opportunity to witness an array of animals—lions, hippos, giraffes, zebras, crocodiles, impalas, elephants, and buffalos, among others. The experience was nothing short of astonishing. It's worth noting that our vehicle was not only substantial and reliable but our guide's driving skills were also commendable.
At the close of the first day, we stayed at the Kinga Lodge. The accommodations boasted captivating views and cozy guesthouses. The staff members were exceptionally kind and helpful. Our room was spacious and immaculate, and the food was unequivocally delectable. As an additional treat, we were gifted a bottle of wine.
On the second day, we embarked on a morning boat safari, which proved to be yet another unforgettable experience. We were accompanied by a new guide who was both friendly and well-trained. We thoroughly enjoyed his storytelling and the interesting facts he shared about the animals. The boat safari offered sightings of numerous birds, hippos, and crocodiles. He also guided us through a cultural village tour. Given that he was born and raised there, his insights into the everyday life of the people were profound and captivating. We were deeply moved by the culture and the warmth he extended to us.
Upon our return to Zanzibar, our taxi driver was already waiting, and we were pleasantly surprised with a small gesture.
In summary, these two days undoubtedly stand out as among the most remarkable experiences of my life. Honcho DMC, the accommodation, the park, and our guides were truly exceptional. I wholeheartedly recommend their services for organizing travels. Once again, thank you for everything!
