Beautyful senic and an impressiv wildlife. Kilimanjaro is a memorable experience. I am very exited.
On the other hand I realised that you as a Tourist are just enough to pay a lot of money for a safari and not to get really the value for this. I booked with openafricasafari.com and the Price was much to much for this i got. In the same group were 6 other people who paid around 600 dollars for a 3 days safari. (I was booked on a group with maximum of 6 people and I was the 7th person!). The first 2 days was great. The second was so so. But my last day was worthless. A nature walk on the road. Walking straigt to a lake and than the same way back. How boring. Really not an experience. They sold me a nature walk!!!! They promised me to visit a School an a Hospital. We did not. I got some explanation about how bananas grow

and so on. But a normal Person knows this already. The guide came to late in morning and was very surprised that I could walk for 3 hours and I did not call for a taxi, which, of course I would have to pay for it. (all the stupid Tourist are just rich and pay all the time!) Furthermore I had to tell the guide what we gonna visit. Otherwise we would have been back to the Hotel very early. I really paid around 200 dollars to much for this trip. I would not book whith this agency again.The 3. day. The other 6 persons booked only 3 days. So the guide wanted to leave the game park at mid day. But I booked a full day in this game reserve. Even the others ha in there itinery that they would stay until 3 o'clock. Finally the guide turned around an we continued the game drive. But the day was not good anymore.
It is a shame to treat Tourist like this. Tansania is just a nice country and I met so many good guides on my 2 month journey trough south africa.
I was travelling for 8 weeks with other different tour guides (south africa, Namibia, Botswana and Tansania)and it always was a very good experience. Only the safari with openafricasafari fucked up. I asked for same money back, but,,,,,

We thoroughly enjoyed Tanzania and in addition to Arusha went to Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire national Park.

4 stars for bush vibe, because there are a lot of other vehicles grouped around animals when sighted, the word is passed around to other tour groups. However, not as bad as Disneyland!

Amazing scenery, safe, nice and smiley people and some of the richest animal life you can encounter in the African continent.

guide I’ve had in years of traveling. A plus was that there were just 2 of us passengers so we had a private tour. We saw other jeeps with people crammed in jockeying for space to take photos. We took the 14 day Cultural, safari, and Zanzibar tour from Uhuru Tours. We got to do everything on the itinerary and it was well organized and less expensive than tour companies based in other countries. Uhuru is local. Tented camps we stayed at were very nice with toilets and hot showers in the tent and good food. One place we stayed at, we could watch elephants and zebras in a mud hole close by from our porch

We climbed Kilimajaro and did Safari afterwards. It is very convenient to travel within the same country. Besides, the national park and safari are famous and plenty of wildlife to look at

Fascinating nature and amazing hospitality!
Coming to our guide, Gaspar, he was like a nat geo dubber, giving us amazing information as we went through the parks. We understood that a guide with good

eyes is very important, and his sight was like an eagle. We used to go around, looking empty at the trees in hope for seeing a lion or a snake, without seeing anything and he would point out a tree 100 meters away, telling which animal is on it with certainty! Apart from that, he was very friendly to keep us away from the tourist traps around the village, and to take us to a local bar to have some drinks each day.It was really an amazing experience out there, looking forward to see those places and people again!
