The tour operator could have been much more professional
4/5

The only reason I give 4 stars and not 5 is because on the day of arrival at i camp, the toilet was clogged and there was no water all afternoon. The next day there were problems with the electricity supply. There was no electricity for several hours and the door lock did not work. Problems in the entire camping area there are. The whole day Safari was wonderful. Michael was our guide. He was very professional, he showed us everything and did everything to make everyone satisfied. The first 2 days were unforgettable, but instead of the last day (bushman walk), I think it's one more day Safari would be better. Overall, I am satisfied.

a beautiful day with the wild animals.
4/5

The safari in the Nyerere Park in Tanzania was vers good. We had a very friendly guide who spent a lot of time to show us the wonderfull views and landscapes . Martin was very calm to find us the wild animals and explain their behavior. We were able to admire the bigs five (lion, elephant, giraffe, hyena, antelope, crocodile, hippopotamus, warthog, monkeys,..) . Plane flights, jeep transfers, lunches, everything was perfect.
only negative point was the lodge who was dirty, noisy (hydrophore unit), lack of hot water in the morning and frugal and poor quality meals.

We had a very nice and professional driver, Katuku.
4/5

The value for the money was good. Only the change to the nyerere tent camp at the very last minute was not ok, althoug the rooms there were very nice, but in african safari lodge we could take a swim and at night there were Elephants coming to the existing pond.
A big thank you to the nice driver Katuku!

Very friendly and helpful.
4/5

The communication was very good, but the evening bevor they changed the lodge for the first night and it was not as good as the second lodge. All over all it was a very good safari but rather expensive as we stayed not in the national park lodges. Our driver was very nice and had a good knowledge of animals and their behavior.

Thoroughly enjoying . Everything was organised brilliantly . Plane sailing throughout excursion. saw 3 of the big five - not bad going for a 2 x day trip! Guides were professional and knowledgeable.

Very nice experience !
4/5

We took a private 3 days safari with lodge (boat, jeep, walk).

The general organization of the tour was pretty good. Our driver picked up us in DAR and dropped us in DAR too, he was really arranging !

First day, 4 hours max of driving to Selous and then lunch at the camp. After that we went to boat safari for 3~4 hours, really great experience with a lot of animals (birds, crocodile, hippopotamus) and with a beautiful sunset on the river !
Back to the camp for dinner, by the way food was very good during all the stay, and then we sleep in the lodge, it was clean and corresponding well to pictures on safari booking. Be careful the electricity is not available during all the day, but it's clearly not a problem.

Second day, approximately 7 hours of game drive in the Nyerere national park, which start at 7am. Amazing experience, we saw a lot of different animals (lion, elephant, giraffe, birds, pumba, hippo, impala...) with perfect explanations from our guide HENRY.

Third day, the one where we were the most disappointed for the walking safari. We thought that we were going to walk during 2~3 hours, but in fact we start at 6:30 am, and we almost didn't walk (15 min). Our "guide" talked to us about a nest and a cactus during 1 hour, and after that he showed us how to make a fire like Bear Grills. It's interesting, but not what we expected.

The lunch wasn't included for the last day, therefore we don't understand why the company didn't recommend us to take a plane at DAR in the evening. If you're making the walking tour, it ends at 8:30am, so it's ok to take a plane at the end of the day. So we preferred to stay for lunch and enjoy the swimming pool and camp. Thank again to our driver, who wait for us !

Special thanks to Henri, who was really kind and with excellent knowledge for our game drive !

Evrything was well arranged

The tour was maybe short, but it was a amazing experience. The service from Uwanda was great, you can ask your question on whatsapp, so that was easy.
