Very nice isolated park
Our morning in the Mountain Zebra Park was great, there is not as many animals as in the north of the country but I was surprised to see so many.
There is less animals but there is also less tourists, we went in November and we were nearly the only ones in the park which was a much appreciated luxury.
We did the cheetah walk and once our guide found the cheetah we walk until we were 10 meters from it and while looking for it (by car, not foot) we saw all the other animals so it was really great.

Very nice and joyful holidays
My friend and me decided last minute to do a Safari to Kidepo valley NP starting from Kampala. The Karumuna team did a great job in managing all the bookings and organisation though it was high season and we started two days later. The hotels were quite nice, though we booked budget-they were classier than expected. Richard and Isaac gave us a wonderful time, they are so friendly and funny and very experienced- they managed to show us so many different aspects of this stunning nature. They really want to show their guests all the beauty of Uganda!
Totally recommended!
Thank you for that trip.

Excellent safari experience from beginning to end
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour, "5-Day Ruaha Immersion". Kathy and Fanuel replied immediately to our booking request, and were willing to customize our package to begin and end in Iringa instead of Dar Es Salaam, making it a three day tour. All communications with Breakdown Safaris were clear and timely. A few weeks before our safari, we received a helpful document with packing suggestions and Swahili phrases, as well as confirmation of our pickup location and time in Iringa.
Kathy and Fanuel picked us up right on time at our hotel, in a very nicely outfitted Toyota Land Cruiser, with a pop-top and plenty of room for ourselves and our voluminous luggage. Bottled water for the whole journey was picked up on the way to Ruaha National Park, a ~two hour drive from Iringa. After a brief stop at the park gates to obtain permits, we saw our first elephant within minutes. The abundance of wildlife in Ruaha was astounding, as was the scarcity of other visitors. We could drive for hours without seeing another vehicle! I imagine the Serengeti is far more crowded.
Rainy season had just started a few weeks earlier, so the park was a beautiful, green background for our photos. We saw elephants, impala, kudu, storks, crocs, hippos, giraffe, many species of birds, lions, zebras. mongeese, monkeys, baboons, lizards, warthogs, waterbuck, rock hyrax, and even a herd of Peace Corps Volunteers! The highlights were the pride of nine lions napping together near the road. A couple lionesses came up to the road to drink water and were a few feet from the Land Cruiser. We also saw a one-day old elephant baby who was very wobbly.
We immediately had a great rapport with Kathy, being a fellow Coloradoan, and Fanuel, whose knowledge of plants and animals was encyclopedic. He had many guidebooks and could quickly find the photo, description, names (common and Latin) for every species we saw. We were provided breakfast in the vehicle, so that we could get out in the park right at sunrise. Granola, milk, tea, and coffee – we had everything we needed. Lunch was served buffet style by the park staff, and dinner was at our lodging, from a menu. The New Bandas were family cottages with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room and kitchen - very roomy, clean, and comfortable. We had solar power and could charge our gear for part of the evening until the battery ran out.
All of our expectations were met or exceeded on this tour, and we had a fantastic three days. We highly recommend Breakdown Safaris for your visit to the Tanzania Southern Circuit.

Brilliant
Our guide Said was brilliant. said was very informative and friendly and willing to answer to a lot of questions.
The accommodation was great!
The only thing was the long travel without air conditioning unit (5 hours going and almost 8 hours coming back in the city), under 35 degrees.
But overall. It was an impressive, well-organized Safari trip!

Exciting trip
We had 6 wonderful days in Tanzania. We travelled with our driver and a cook through the country. The driving distance was very long but we could see a lot of the country side. The food was always excellent. We could also enjoy african food. During the trip we enjoyed a lot of game viewing. It was not touristic at all which we enjoyed very much.

Top tour in Tanzania!
We were thrilled with our safari experience with savannah explorers. Roberto emailed back and forth extensively to meet our expectations and allay all of our concerns. Greyson met us personally to see how our trip was progressing and to ascertain whether we had any questions or concerns. And our personal driver and guide, Abdul was wonderful! Abdul was with us the entire time, answered all of our questions and was just great to spend time with conversing about life in general!
We have only compliments for Savannsh Explorers and wish them the best of luck!

Perfect Holiday by ACZsafaris
I want to thank ACZsafaris for the wonderful safaris they prepared for me and my family. I approached them with a desire to give my family a news year gift inform of safari. They advised I do a 6days Masai Mara Lake Naivasha and Amboseli private safari. The choice of the camps/lodges was the best and my family really loved the holiday. Our guide Martin satisfied all the members of my family with his great skills to deal with people of all ages. I must say he is the best driver I have ever met. Am looking forward for another exciting moments with Aczsafaris.
