Knowledgeable, very family friendly and catering to our interests.
My family and I enjoyed a fantastic safari to Tarangire and the Ngorongoro Crater with Allen Tanzania Safaris. We were a group of seven which included 4 teenagers. We each had an incredible experience.
Our guide shared so much of his knowledge - not just about the animals, but also about the parks, the geology, the flora, Tanzanian ethnic groups and Tanzanian heritage. He responded to our many questions and engaged us with plenty of interesting information about what we were seeing. We heard fascinating accounts of animal behaviour… and we even learnt some Swahili songs!
We had particular interest in the bird life in the parks and he catered perfectly for this and even kept a record of the 57 species that we saw - sharing his list at the culmination of our trip!
The lodges were beautiful with stunning gardens and swimming pools. One lodge was particularly teenage friendly with a basketball hoop, and volleyball court as well as a pool. The staff in every lodge were super welcoming, the rooms were comfortable and clean, plus the food was delicious!
The safari cruiser was reliable, comfortable and afforded great views of the parks especially when we popped the roof. We felt safe throughout, and respect for our surroundings was consistent.
