Amazing safari trip followed by lovely days on Zanzibar
We had booked a 4-day safari in Selous Game Reserve followed by a holiday on Zanzibar at the Reef & Beach Resort. The safari was an extraordinary experience, sleeping in the middle of the wilderness, delicious food, very well-organized excursions with great guides, lots of great animals. The holiday on Zanzibar was lovely, the hotel complex was a bit overcrowded at times, which was noticeable when you sat by the pool. The staff were generally friendly, but we were unhappy with the cleaning staff, as they only cleaned the room if you left them a tip. On the days when we didn't leave a tip, our towels were taken away and not cleaned. Otherwise, we were very happy with our stay at the Reef & Beach. We were also very happy with the food.

The surprrise and amazing of nature
It was well organized, very friendly and competent guides (especially the driver, named John), we did see so many amazing landscapes, animals (all big 5, but that would not have been necessary) and had also much fun.
The lodges were large and comfortable, the meals good, coffee was ok, ...., all good

Very good and honest agent helped us booking, super great tour guide took us safari
The travel agent Diana helped me a lot in making my last minute booking. She answered a lot of my questions and was very patient with my back and forth in plan changes. She finally helped me secured a fly-in-fly-out mid-range Serengeti safari trip with a very good price at the last minute (I literally booked and paid the day before I flew from Arusha to Seronera).
Our tour guide Derick was a super great and nice guy, we had a wonderful 5 days trip with him. The vibe was always pleasant and he always communicated with us well. He gave professional suggestion about the arrangement while was also willing to adjust the routes based on our need. He has very sharp eyes and can always spot animals hundreds meters away without binocular, that was very impressive!
Highly recommend this operator and our tour guide Derick.

Amazing!
My 19yo son and I had a great time with our safari-guide Boni. He knew so much about all the animals and nature.
We stayed in great accomodations during the safari. We got wistles for the night, so we could blow the wistle at night if we were in trouble 😉
We have seen the Big 5 and a lot of other great animals.
Lunches were a great surprise every day, we loved it all.

Excellent safari tour
Both the accommodation and the tour were excellent and a good value for money. Joe, the driver/guide took us exactly to the place were we could see the animals clearly. The two of us had our private jeep which was very comfortable. We had a wonderful time in Tanzania.

Experienced tour operator, good guides, good accommodation.
A friend and I were on safari for 4 days. The guides were good to very good. They were very eager to show us many animals and explain a lot. The accommodation in the camp was very good. The cabins had everything you need and were very clean. Unfortunately, the pool was only half filled with unclean water. We didn't use it.
The price-performance ratio was right for me and we always felt safe in the camp thanks to the Maasai, even when one night the monkeys roared very loudly because a leopard was hunting.
We did the safari 3 times in the 4 days, the boat tour and the hike through the bush which was more of a 2 hour walk. But: we learned a lot about the Maasai.
The people at the reception were very friendly and helpful and in the restaurant and bar you immediately felt at home as everyone was so friendly. All in all a very good stay!

Well organised and welcoming.
We had an amazing time on our paradise and wilderness tour. The hotel Reef and Beach resort was a wonderful resort had everything you needed for a relaxing time, the staff were friendly, welcoming and very attentive. They we're always smiling and made you feel happy. The only negative point was it was a little to far away from the main town Jambiani. The tours that were on offer were great. The tours we experienced in Zanzibar included Stone Town, Prison Island and spice farm, this was a full day out. The other tour we can highly recommend was Dolphin watching/swimming if your brave enough to jump into the Indian ocean about a mile off the coast. And swimming with sea turtles.
Well what do I say about the Safari..........it was breathtaking to experience seeing the beautiful creatures in there natural habitat, the national park was packed with spectacular sights. The safari drive is not for the faint hearted as you are chucked about in the jeep like being on a rollercoaster, we had so much fun and laughs. Our driver was fantastic too taking us everywhere to seek out The big cats themselves Lion's, along with Elephants, Giraffe, Hippo, Zebra, Hyaenas and everything else that goes with them even Crocodile. The resort Selous Safari was fabulous, great location for Nyerere National Park and Bungalows we stayed in were fabulous, yet again the staff were friendly, welcoming and always smiling. The food in both hotels was top notch. A holiday we will never forget.

Everything was organized so good we didn’t have to worry about anything
We had an amazing trip to Tanzania we’re we spent at an incredible resort and had the best time when we were on safari. The service was very good at all places, very kind and genuine people.
It is a lot of money but then you don’t have to worry about anything. Everything will be fixed for you. The only thing you have to do is enjoy.
Our guide was amazing as well and so was the food when we were in the lodges. Everything was clean.
We loved it and would definitely go back
