Fantastic safari yet again
Second time asking Jacob to arrange our safari
We requested the same driver (Salum) for both visits and he did not disappoint.
I would highly recommend speaking to Jacob from smilewithustours as he can tailor your safari to your needs and his prices are fantastic too!
Fully held our hands from hotel pick up in zanzibar, through the airport and the other side in Tanzania
Customized our safari to meet our needs and desires and great value for the price!
I worked directly with Smile with Us Tours in Africa to book a 9-day safari in southern Tanzania to the lesser visited parks--Nyerere, Mikumi, Udzungwa Mountains, and Ruaha National Parks. I was assigned to the travel program as curator of education at a top US zoo, so I knew wildlife safari operations and possibilities. I purposely chose these lesser visited parks as I wanted to experience African ecosystems and wildlife without the crowds and swarms of vehicles--I wasn't disappointed as three days we only encountered two to four other vehicles! We saw a plethora of wildlife, including birds and the landscape was beautiful and the ecosystem was intact.
Smile with Us Tours in Africa worked with me to customize their 8-day fly by safari and even arranged a visit to a site they had never gone to before. They listened and added a variety of activities, 2-night drives, a walking safari with rangers, and two cultural experiences with the Maasai. The daily itinerary was full, but our driver/guide shortened a couple of days so we could relax at our "camps".
The three camps where we stayed at were very nice and the staff worked diligently to take care of our needs and desires. Smile with Us Tours offered the option to upgrade our camps if we wished. The food was varied and offered a variety of local and continental dishes. There were always choices and plenty of vegetables and fruits.
Our driver/guide went out of his way to listen to us and work to meet our wishes and expectations (as much as possible). He worked 12-14 hours each day and provided us with some extra experiences and tastes that were not part of the itinerary. It was nice to have additional guides join us and help lead the safari drives, boat trip, night drives, hikes and walking safari. Our driver/guide recognized that he needed to improve on his English comprehension, but overall, he very good as a leader and his personality was fun loving, yet serious and concerned that we had a great experience.
The land cruiser was adequate, but showed some wear and tear as the roads were rough on a vehicle. There was plenty of room in the vehicle and the roof raised to allow all of us good viewing of the wildlife we encountered. We had a couple of minor maintenance issues, but they were remedied quickly or taken to the "shop" after we were dropped off at camp.
All in all, great value for the 9-day safari and I would recommend you book with Smile with Us Tours in Africa.
Fantastic
From the absolute start we were treated exceptionally.
Our driver Abduhl was very prompt and couldn’t have been nicer
The flight over was amazing and once we arrived at the park the same treatment resumed
Our guide Kennedy and our driver Dula were an amazing duo! We managed to spot so many animals and Kennedy was on hand to give us information about them. His knowledge of the whole savanna was incredible. I’d give this tour 100 stars if I could.
A very competent, knowledgeable and professional team
Excellent safari experience with Smile With Us. Everything went well, a very competent, knowledgeable and professional team with a lot of empathy for us. We always feel safe and accompanied. Very happy with this Safari. I recommend Smile With Us. Congratulations and continue your work showing Africa and defending the environment and animals.
Excellent Organization
We are a family of 4 adults with 3 kids from 9,6,3 and all was perfectly organized from our arrival in Dar to Safari to our resort in Zanzibar - the kids and my daughter really enjoyed the Safari as was their first time - excellent
