An unforgettable experience
The journey was most impressing. Even I have traveled a lot in Africa and even lived there all was in a way new and exciting.
The tour guide was amazing and every thing was brilliant chosen - the sequence of the route, the lodges and hotels with the excellent food and transportation. Everything was going smooth with care of the group, every wish fulfilled to satisfaction, all in harmony - which was important for me - and the feeling of individuality was always present.
So I want to say thank you to Caroline for all her care and her lovely emotion.

Good moments at the nature
Serengeti is a wonderful place, as well Tarangire park. The experience with the wild animals is fantastic and the "big horizons" of the Serengeti are wonderful.
Zanzibar Nungwi beaches are excepcional and the hotels at the beach have interconnection, so it's possible to try different restaurants every day.
Most of the restaurants at Nungwi serve excelent sea food.
Some points in Tanzania are problematic: 1) the insistence of vendors at the Nungwi beaches is terrible. They still offer drugs as marijuana and cocaine! 2) the bureaucracy at the airport is unbelievable. It's necessary to reserve extra 30' after check-in to go trough the immigration and at the double or triple check of passport. 3) the Zanzibar airport is without air-conditioning and has a poor roof, so it's like a sauna. The restarant upstairs takes to much time and charges extortionately for simple food.

An experience that should be on everybody's bucket list
We spent 4 weeks driving around South Africa taking in the Drakensbergs, Kruger, St. Lucia Wetlands, Dolphin Coast and Didima and every single place exceeded expectations. My main interest is birding and it certainly delivered but with added wildlife, incredible scenery and friendly people. We self drove a Ford Focus and didn't have any problems with the roads. The weather was very good and we only had a couple of days of rain, and even that wasn't bad. On hind sight, it would probably be better getting a 4x4 in case the weather is bad. Would I go back, definitely without any hesitation. A full report with photographs can be found on a personal blog at www.kevinagar.uk

Review about Kenya by Ankit Desai
It is full of wildlife. A first timer will surely get overwhelmed with sheer numbers.

Our 'dream trip' was thanks to George Munge, our tour operator.
Everything was as good as or better than we expected. George was so knowledgeable about so many topics: vegetation, birds, wildlife, the country - it was like having an encyclopedia in the vehicle with us. We felt safe and well cared for the entire trip, thanks to George. I would HIGHLY recommend this trip and operator to anyone!

AN UNFORGETTABLE AND AMAZING EXPERIENCE
If you are hasitating in visiting Kenya on february, do not do it! The weather is perfect, not to hot, with no rain. We could see the big five in the fisrt day, and a lot of other animals. The Masai Mara is wonderful, with great sightseeings, it is not to crowded. All the hotels are really great, the service is impecable, you can see everyone with a smile in their faces. Our tour was wonderful beginning with our guide, that has a lot of experience, always taking care of us, the transport is quite good, we had the car for ourselves. The food is very good.

Tanzania was beautiful but the change of our travel plan by Uhuru was not nice
We visited end of February Tanzania. Wildlife, scenery and the weather was perfect. We did camping. So nothing luxury, but the tents and sleeping bags were clean. It was a great experience to hear the wild animals in the night in the near of the tents. The cook prepared amazing food for us. So Tanzania was beautiful and I recommend everyone to go for it. One thing was not nice. It was planned that we visit first Tarangire, then Serengeti and then Ngorongoro. Uhuru changed our travel plan, we visited first Serengeti and then Ngorongoro with two other tourists. In the third day the safari ended at 1 PM for us (half day!). The two other tourists went with the same SUV to Arusha on the same day. We spend the half day at the camping side. Next day another car brought us to Tarangire. This change was not nice. Uhuru informed us about the change at the first day of the safari. So we did not have a chance other than doing the best out of the safari.

Amazing safari with Classic Journeys
We were 4 persons and we spent 4 days in Masai Mara. All the 4 days were amazing and the safari agency (Classic Journeys) did a great job organizing for us a unbelievable moment. Everything was better than our expectations: the accommodation , the food and of course the guide. Everyday day of game driving was a surprise and we had the impression being in the scenery of Lion King.
Highly recommended.
