Tanzania in the Rain
Make sure about the weather when you book a trip to Tanzania
We were wet every day on Kilimanjaro!
We were wet camping in Serengeti and Ngorongoro!
The wet roads really spoiled some of the game viewing and some roads were to wet to drive on

Amazing when you don't get ripped off!
We booked a Safari tour with Crater Explorer on Safari Booking.
Exchanges where nice but only by WhatsApp, we didn't receive any receipt, anything confirming us the booking, but anyway, we thought it was quite normal in Tanzania.
Arrived in Arusha, the guy from Crater Explorer (Emanuel), ask us to pay the globally by cash a day before the safari without giving us any receipt (what is suspect).
Hopefully we were with a local Tanzanian at this time, who thought it was a scam.
And actually he was right! During the day the safari was very nice, we saw many animals, parks are extremely beautiful BUT for the accommodation it was the opposite of what we paid for. We were supposed to sleep in tents IN the park and actually we slept in a dirty lodge outside of the park, in a city center very noisy! We were very very disappointed, and we didn't get any refund, anything.
Just as advise, please verify safari agencies that you promote on your website, and make sure they do what they sell!

Fantastic
A fantastic experience. We booked 6 full days, but fortunately for us one day was cancelled (we hiked up Kilimandscharo instead), because it's hard to spend more than 5 days in the jeep just sitting all the time. Nice thing is to combine different parks, because the scenery is so different and it brings variety in the experience. Ngorongoro was unbearably our favorite. Don't miss it, especially if you are travelling with children. The concentration of different animal types is really high, so you'd probably see as many on one day as anywhere else on 2 or 3.
Our guide was just great, he spotted with bare eyes the animals we could hardly see through binoculars! A real professional! We were spending nights in the tent camps, and if you choose this option don't expect much hygiene in the washrooms... But the personnel there is friendly and the general atmosphere very amicable. We had one rainy day out of 6, it was tolerable. If it rained all the time, it would have been a really bad experience. I wouldn't recommend a safari during the rain season.

Breathtaking
The scenery is unbeatable and the experience is something I would recommend to everyone in a heartbeat. The company was good considering it was a budget travel company. The quality of some of the meals could have been a little better. But overall, the company's hospitality was great - they gave us a bottle of red wine to welcome us which was a nice touch! I would recommend these guys for all budget travelers. We actually ended up going to all the places and lodging exactly where all the more expensive groups were. Richard and his team are professionals and will take care of you to the best of their ability.

Visit to Selous with "Smile with us Tours in Africa"
We booked a three day safari in Selous Game Reserve with a two night stay at the Africa Safari Lodge with "Smile with us Tours in Africa". The tour was perfectly in line with the description on Safari Bookings and we really enjoyed the safari! Jacob (the tour operator) was very responsive and flexible when planning the safari. He and his team were also super supportive in obtaining a Tanzanian visa (which is not easy for Ethiopian citizens).

It was surreal being in the animals natural habitat
I absolutely would recommend Twin Adventures for a safari. Our guide Zinga was very friendly with great energy. I had a lot of questions about the life in Tanzania and he was more than happy to answer all my questions. Staying at the Africa Safari Selous camp was so much fun. The Maasai boys were so funny and so full of energy. The whole staff there was super friendly and very helpful. The rooms were very clean, spacious and it had a very authentic feel. The rooms are each their own individual huts and as soon as you step out of your room you are surrounded by monkeys. The food was very selective (so if you are a picky eater please bring snacks) but it was very tasty.
The bush walk with Simba was super funny and full of knowledge about the trees and he taught us the way of life of the bush people. I told him it was my birthday and after he taught us how to make fire, he sang me happy birthday while we skipped around the fire. It was a great way to start my actual birthday that morning.
The safari itself was so surreal. The selous is very green and dense. It feels very adventurous because you really have to search for the animals. I wished I saw more of an abundance of each animal but I knew that would be hard since its not an open field. But I'm happy that we got to see all the animals we wished to see.
Again doing the safari with Twin Adventures was really great and I recommend them to anyone.
