The communication at first was not that great because when we arrived at the airport there was no one to pick us up, we had to take a cab to our first hotel in Arusha. And when you arrive to a new country/ a new continent for the first time it is quite hard to know how everything is working and therefore scary not knowing if someone should or should not pick us up. We did not even know the name of is agent we only knew the name of the Swedish company TagAlong. We did not even have a phone or phone number to call stainbok adventures...
Also the communication was not that well when we traveled within Tanzania between the mainland and Zanzibar.
When we traveled to Zanzibar, we got left on the airport without any help in Arusha. And we had to fix everything by ourselves. We came to Arusha which stainbok adventures left us at, but later it showed that we had to switch airport to Kilimanjaro... The airplane was also 5 hours late. No one told us and we felt that people knew things they didn't tell us, we didn't get informed.
And also the flights between Zanzibar and Kilimanjaro, Zanzibar and Daar El Salam was under all critic. We had the wrong time on our tickets and we had to get help from our hotel manager Rasta, he fixed everything with help from Gidione.
However, when we got our guide Manuel in Arusha everything became so amazingly good. He took care of us, listen to what we wanted to see and do. His guiding was first class and we felt that we saw everything Tanzania had to offer. He made the safari excellent. We had some problems with the electricity at one of our hotels but Manuel help us with that.
We are all in all happy with our experience of Tanzania, Zanzibar and the safari. The problems however took down the grade of our expectations but it was such a wonderful trip and probably we will come back in the future, hopefully without any disruptions.
Best regards,
Ulf and Marie
