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.

Two wonderfull immersive days in the bush
5/5

We were very well received by our guide Mr Martin who accompanied us during these 2 days spent in the national park Nyerere.
We did not imagine seeing so many animals of all kinds but the experience of our guide and our driver meant that we were able to see a lot of things. Impala, okapi, elephants, hippos, zebras, antelopes, lion, wildebeest, buffaloes, giraffes, hyenas, monkeys, baboons, warthogs...
The visit to the park was exceptional and the meal in the bûche was an unforgettable experience.
Only small downside, the accommodation in the lodges was not up to our expectations. No electricity during the night, no hot water in the morning, very basic comfort.
Nevertheless, we strongly recommend this visit!

Wonderful safari
5/5

Organisation was perfect from pick up at the hôtel until return at the hôtel.
Our Guide Martin was Very kind and expiremented. We had the chance to see lion girafe, and a lot of other wild animals. Our driver Omar was perfect. The meal in the middle of the bush was great. Accommodation was à little bit under our expectation (ex. Pool was not clean and greenish) but People were wonderfull. A once in a lifetime expérience with Uwandatours.

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!

Mr Hassan was incredibly responsive and did everything to please us, even last minute plane changes.
5/5

Our family of 5 with adult children spent a wonderful 5 days at Nyerere Park. The tour operator takes care of all the details and you do not have to worry about anything. From pick up in Zanzibar, flight to Nyerere, drive to the lodge (Africa Safari camp) , games, excursions and return to Dar Es Salam, everyone was always on time. The lodge itself is rustic with very large, clean, attractive and comfortable quarters ( I would recommend the banda) and good mosquito nets. Of course this is not a luxury camp so do not expect windows, air conditioning, electricity 24/7 and a hair dryer. The manager Mr. Marc has the best personality and will solve all your issues. Forgot your adaptor- he will find one. No cash to settle your bills- he will take a credit card. No hot water- he will make it appear. Meals were included and plentiful, if a bit repetitive but the logistics of feeding so many people far from everywhere is mind boggling. The excursions were of course the highlight of our stay and we truly believe we had the best guide (Mr. Martin) and driver (Mr. Ramson). They drove us tirelessly from morning to dusk through very diverse landscapes and were able to spot all the animals we had hoped to see. We were literally face to face with elephants, visited a lioness with her cubs, observed a very large herd of buffalo lining for the water and spied on a hyena crunching the spine of a carcasse. In the last hours of our last drive, Mr Martin pushed on and managed to spot a male lion which he said we could not leave Tanzania without seeing. We bathed in the hot springs, did a long river boat where we saw many types of birds (in addition to hippos plenty) including an African Fish Eagle catching fish and pushing his victory call. In addition to being a great tracker, Mr Martin was an excellent source of information on all subjects. On our last day we visited a Masai family. With the help of Mr Martin as a translator, we were able to ask many questions and answer theirs. There was also a friendly Masai jumping/dancing competition betweeen our boys and the boys of the family which was a lot of fun. I cannot conclude without mentioning the bush walk with Dr. Simba who is such a character and will make you laugh with his stories. Everyone we met in Tanzania was very friendly. All in all incredible memories. We really did not want to leave.

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.

Couldn't have dreamed for anything better !
5/5

Anton is the best guide you could have for a safari ! He knows the reserve like the back of his hand and will take you to the best places.
We've seen tons of animals during those two days of jeep safari. Anton has an exceptional knowledge of nature, animals, birds and insects and will always have something to teach you. We had two wonderful days !
Trust me you won’t be disappointed !
so ... Allons-y !
Thank you so much Anton !!

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.
