Everyone should do it, at least once! Unforgettable
Overall rating
5/5

Our guide was amazing, always patient and spoting the animals miles away!
The scenery and wildlife are incredible and worth all the effort and investment. The weather was perfect during the safaris, droping a few degrees only at night time (bring sweaters).
The food was ok but the accommodations could use some improvement! The tents weren't confortable and the bathrooms were so bad many people didn't even shower.
Aside from that, we loved everything and would do it again anytime!

I travelled with Dusty Roads and was extremely well looked after. My driver was Geoff. He is extremely knowlegable' and can spot animals and birds and plants kilometers away.

We travelled to Ngorongoro Crater and Sarengetti. It was a fast but very informative and effective. The accomadation at Eileen's at Karatu and Tortilis Tented Camp was great in terms of comfort, food and hospitality!!

The sceneary was spectacular and the wildlife was plentiful. I have taken away wonderful memeories and great photos.

Highly recoemmended

Safari in Tanzania was amazing. Our safari compagny was okay! You have to pay the day before the begining of the Safari, then, you have your jeep with four sits maximum. Driver and Cooker was professional. At the moment of the year, we were really few tourists and alone most of the time ! We saw a lot of animals. Amazing pictures (really!!!!). Accomodations were okay if you are not afraid to sleep with Buffalo around your tent! Only point to criticate is guide informations weren't exactly accurate and little bit poor. For the price we payed I recommand 100% this compagny! Thank You very much for this amazing experience !

Overall rating
5/5

Even it’s the wet season, the weather was great, always sunny . When it rains it’s only for few minutes and it dries quickly.
No words can describe the wildlife , seeing the animal in their own place is amazing , it’s like nothing else. Just amazing. We were in 4 seasons lodge in Serengeti very good you don’t expect this quality of rooms and food in this place of the world. Top Top Top !!!
Our guide Aaron was just awesome, very listener to our requests and very patient with the kids !! Lucky we were with him
The car was in very good shape very confortable.
The small flights from Dar salam to Serengeti and from Serengeti to Zanzibar are by themselves an experience. Too scary
We highly recommend the travel agency Safari Hub. If you want to have the best trip ever ask for Victoria !!!

First of all, we went to Selous during the wet season. During the wet season roads may be difficult to impossible to drive and animals are more widespread, the watering holes have become lakes and rivers. Food and water is plentyful, so animals will be more widespread, predators will be harder to spot (we did not see lions). But the guides speak to each other so if one finds a flock of elephants, he will notify the others. This is one of the benefits of joining a tour instead of goind on your own. We did see a lot of impalas, giraffes, zebras, wilderbeest, bamboos and wild pigs, plus a few more. I honestly care more for the birds than the animals, we saw a lot of vultures, but the small colorful birds are the most beautiful sight.
Even though we went on safari during the wet season, we didnt see rain every day. During our 3 day/2night tour, we had rain overnight once. The accomodation was great, they called it tent, but basically we had a concrete room with shower, sink and wc, then a frame covered with tarp and palm leaf roof with 2 beds (mosquito net too) room. All this on a raised concrete foundation with a porch where you could sit and look at the view. This was one unit. We stayed at Ngalawa camp, the camp was basic, electricity for 2-3 hours at night and sometimes an hour in the very early morning. At night you lie in bed listening to the bush babies making a ruckus in the trees outside. No AC. The food was good, the service was good. Our guide was great, this man man did his best to please us, but what I admire the most is that he wanted us to leave nature untouched, we were not allowed to feed the animals neither in camp nor on tour, and this is such an important attitude if we are to safely watch nature close up. Ive seen so many horrible examples of feeding bread, fruit and even plastic to get animals close. Also, going back we had a severe breakdown of the car. The guide made sure we were as comfortable as possible while he tried to have the car fixed. When he knew he had to go to Dar es Salaam (we were stranded in Kibiti) for parts, he made it so we found a driver to take us up together, instead of waiting yet another 3-4 hours for the company to send a car to pick us up. Than way we were home before midnight, late, but justifiable so. We were also stopped in a road block going out of the bush, some youth had organized this. Our guide tackled this very well, talked to them and so we passed without paying (important, because these things should not pay off). I dont remember the homepage of the company we used, but their email is ngalawa@selousrufijihippoadventure.com
The guide was decent in english, and we ended up spending a full night just talking about life, there and back home for us. To me its extremely important to have good communication ability.

Fantastic Tour!!!
Overall rating
5/5

My partner and I chose the 8 day Amazing Northern Tanzania. We are 32 and 28 years old. We could not be happier with our experience!
We have traveled a lot of the world and Europe, and this Tanzanian experience is by far the BEST travel experience we have both ever had. We chose the camping option, and felt very close to the wildlife both in game drives and off game drives. Camping was the real deal. We highly recommend!

Camping in the Serengeti was an unforgettable experience. Thanks to Anwa (our guide) and Freddie (our chef) for taking such good care of us at all times. Anwa went above and beyond to ensure we saw the big 5, the best views, and as many animals as possible big or small. Anwa was extremely knowledgeable. You just need to do this tour! There are no words.

Freddie served us amazing food breakfast, lunch and dinner. Absolutely delicious. Freddie makes the best soup we’ve both ever tasted!!

Both Anwa and Freddie are fantastic communicators and this experience was beyond anything we could ever expected. Tanzanian scenery is simply breathtaking, and our tour were in complete awe of the animals and how close we were to them.

Thank you Foot Slopes, Anwa and Freddie for taking such good care of us!
