Wonderful experience, well planned, guide with great knowledge
We did a seven -day safari with Base Camp in November 2019, travelling the full northern Tanzania circuit including Lake Manyara, Tarangire, Lake Natron, Ngorongoro. We travelled mother and son, with Christina, our guide for the whole time, in a private Base Camp Land Cruiser. Christian was a great guide, he was brilliant at spotting all sorts of things which we would have missed, and he knew where and when to stop the vehicle to observe and take photos of the wildlife. We managed to see everything we wanted to see, leopard, jackal with prey, lioness hunting, warthogs, baby elephant for months including all the "Big 5", mainly to Christians efforts).
Booking the trip directly with Achmed in Tanzania (the English owner) was easy and friendly. Achmed answered all my email queries very quickly. He also met with us when we arrived and when we came back. Gave us a good briefing and various tips.
He organized wonderful lodges, we also stayed in tent for three nights. Two nights at Lake Natron in stone dessert. Fantastic to wake up and walk around and meet giraffes. At Lake Natron we climbed to a waterfall with Masai guide Lepara, very kind and helpful guide.
Thankyou Ahmed and Christian for a lifelong experience.

The safari package that Achmed was everything we wanted and more than met our expectations.
Achmed was an excellent communicator and responded to all our email questions promptly and clearly. He provided an excellent service. He met with us for a whole afternoon and shared his extensive knowledge of the Serengeti. The tour itself was wonderfully organized. Our driver/guide, Yuda, was exceptional - his ability to spot wild life was amazing. He was also lots of fun and readily answered all our questions. He was an excellent driver and took good care of us. Zacheria was the cook and helper and he cooked wonderful meals for us and always had a smile on his face. We saw all the wild life we had hoped to see and more! I highly recommend basecamp tanzania.
