Excellent, and so easy!
Gecko Adventure provided us with an excellent safari in Mikumi, and were so accommodating. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Solid experience, knowledgeable guide
No complaints could be made. Rama was very good answering all initial queries. Otto was very knowledgeable and good company.
Saw 3 of the big 5. no rhino, no leopard.
Driving from Dar Es Salaam to Mikumi took 7 hours which is okay as you see the country, but if you cant handle the heat, it can be a long old ride!

Satisfied tour adventure with Gecko
The communications in advance of the tour went very well and quick with Rama the contact person.
The private tour of 5 days was very nice and exciting and we had a very good english speaking gide/driver with very good eyes. He saw most animals much earlyer as we did and we have seen the big five and much more. The accomodation and lodges were very good and met the expectations. It is by the way intended that the guide/driver has dinner with you in the accommodations, which was not told beforehand. If you want to have romantic dinners this is not very convenient. The 4wheeldrive car was very good but the power chargers did not work so bring enough power with you. The partner of Rama was also very friendly and helpfull.

Posted on Oct 21, 2016Many thanks for the review Rolf. I will speak with my guides regarding eating with clients so that can be on request. Also we have been working with power chargers system, they are now working okay.

We were very happy with all the arrangements.
The whole tour more than filled our expectations. Our guide Said was very professional and could tell us a lot about the wildlife.

Great short safari
I set up a last-minute safari to Mikumi National Park with Gecko Adventure. They picked me up in Dar and we drove to Mikumi (about 7 hours because of all the heavy traffic leaving Dar). The accommodations at Camp Bastion were great and the game drives fantastic. My guide, Anthony, did a great job and I was amazed at all of the animals we saw - lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippos, crocodiles, impala, eland, baboons, jackals, etc. Overall, it was a fantastic trip.

A different adventure for us
We met with Rama and our guide Gaston; at the time in the morning. Along the way Mikumi National park; we had no trouble..Gaston was very Professional, experienced and very kind..Mikumi is about 4-5 hours from Dar..so you can a little tired during the trip..But when we arrived to Vuma Hills Lounge we stayed , our tiredness over..I definitely recommend Vuma Hills..we stayed 2 nights.. otherwise the game drive was very fantastic.. It was like being a dream or a documantery..We saw a leopard, crocodile, hippo, gnu, impala, elephant, giraffe, zebra, baboon, ,boar, jackal and many animals. Also in the loung the funny bushbabies...
This experience, was very different and like an adventure for us.. We really enjoyed it with Gecko.. Thanks for everything..
