Great experience!
We had a wonderful time together with the guide Othman and the company. Everything was organized very quickly, clearly and qualitatively. At the end of our safari we were surprised how quickly these ten days flew by. during this time we visited 5 national parks, see all the animals of the big five, relax in the best tent lodges in Tanzania. Many thanks to Mr. Beatus and Mr. Othman for an unforgettable experience!

Unforgetable experience
An incredible experience. We spent 7 days on safari with Passionate Guides Tanzania, as part of our honeymoon. We had the opportunity to visit different national parks such as Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater where we were able to see all types of animals including the so-called Big Five (lion, elephant, leopard, buffalo and rhinoceros). Our guide showed perfect knowledge of the parks and the best spots to see each of these precious animals. The organization was also perfect, adapted to our needs and requirements. The choice of lodges and tented camps was perfect. We also had the opportunity to visit different tribes as part of a cultural tour at Eyasi Lake, we experienced different ways of living and understanding life. Perfect to enjoy alone, as a couple, with friends or family. 100% recommendable!

A trip I am most proud of to recommend to my friends
It is very competitive for the safari business in Tanzania and we are lucky to know the Passionate Guides -- A small operator founded by Beatus. After comparing with another 14+ operators, we chose to go with the Passionate due to the professional suggestions, fast response speed and a better price. Even if we were still a little bit worried about the trip (as we've never been to Africa before) but we feel assured soon after we met Beatus and our guide Athuman at the JRO airport. After 7 days when we left, we were 150% satisfied with our trip and fully loaded with the valuable memory in Tanzania. After comparing with some of my friends going with other operators afterwards, I really feel there are several very good points worth my recommendation to the Passionates:
1. The safari jeep is in good maintanence: The road is pretty bad for transportation between and within the national parks (Especially the way to Lake Natron). Even if it is dry seaon in Sep, the safari Landcruiser can still easily break down on the super bumpy road. Our Landcruiser were all good across the trip and our guide Athuman drove skillfully and carefully. He also cleaned the window of vehicle daily to keep clear view for us. This is quite a basic requirement but many other operators still may not be able to notice it.
2. Willing to listen to clients' needs and act profesisonally: Since we met at the airport Beatus emphasized that it was always better discussing with our guide Athuman what we need in time. We indeed did as he suggested: We always discussed the next day's plan daily on the dinner table and told him what animals we wish to see. Athuman tried his best during day time satisfying our needs and provided us chances to take wonderful photos for the animals. Even if we spent long time for some day hurried from on location to the other, he would get up very early at 6AM with us to earn some time for our game drive. Good communication with the clients can make both sides happy, we really appreciated this from Beatus's team.
3. Providing professional gear and suggestions: We went to Antarctica before but were not aware of taking a professional camera for high resoluaiton shots. Therefore we prepared a camera with a heavy 60-600 mm lens with us for this trip. Before we arrived, we were checking if Beatus can provide us with bean bags for support the camera on the vehicle, and he prepared it for us for free as well as providing some useful suggestions for photo graphing for animals. This is a very good evidence showing their professionality.
When we went back home, Beatus and his team came to welcome and check with us the feedback for this whole trip. Throughout all these activities, I really feel they are seriously running this business with true passion in their mind for the career. And it indeed brought the clients like me unforgettable experience in Africa. Therefore, I recommend the Passionate for safari tour in Tanzania without any reservation.
