Mount Meru and Mount Kilimanjaro and Zanzibar
Together with a friend I climbed Mount Meru and Mount Kilimanjaro and we went to Zanzibar. It was a great experience. We were picked up at our hotel (arranged by Makasa). Mount meru is in Arusha National park. When we arrived, we started walking with our guide. It is a very nice trail through this National park with wild animals. We slept in huts. We it is high season you will have to share them, but we had one for ourselves. The food was prepared by a cook of the team. You only have to carry your daypack, the crew will take care of the others equipment.
After one day of rest in Moshi we started our journey on the Kilimanjaro, Machame route in 7 days. We had 2 guides with the 2 of us (protocol of the park) It is a beutiful trail. The guides can tell you so much of the mountain and they know what to do with different kinds of weather and when there is altitude sickness. The mountains are their home. They adapt the pace to the physical condition of the clients, which is very noce. We slept in tents provided by Makasa. The food was prepared by the cook and also on the Kilimanjaro we only had to carry our daypack. The great team took care of the rest. The landscape is really beautiful and the sunset on Shira camp was stunning! The sunrise during the summit was amazing!
After climbing mountains we went to Zanzibar. The continental flight was arranged by Makasa, as were the transfers from the airport to the hotel and vice versa.
The communication was good and personal (and in Dutch). They came to the hotel in Moshi to see if everything is fine. When we sended an email we had quick respons and with our Tanzanian numbers we could easily reach them through phone. We could choose how we wanted everything, the hotels, the timetable of the continental flights, almost everything. It is no problem if you have requests for the food, it can be arranged.
Thanks to Makasa we had a sportive, relaxing and beautiful holiday!

I and my wife took a trip to Tanzania and booked with FANTASTIC SAFARIS. The trip was 6 days camping to Tarangire, Ngorongoro Serengeti and Manyara. I would to say thanks so much Fantastic Safaris for organizing perfect trip for us. The chef was perfect as he prepared three delicious meals a day. The driver was excellent, he showed us all big 5, he is very knowledgeable and experienced. The vehicle was good and comfortable and installed inverter and fridge, we charged our Camera and every day we enjoyed cold drinks when on game drive. We highly recommend Fantastic Safaris for any one who want to visit to Tanzania.

Our dreams come true and it was breathtaking
Incredible experience! If you hesitate stop it and book your safari trip with hyrax. Together with 2 friends we decided to choose 6 days safari in Masai Mara, Amboseli and lake Naivasha. The amount of animals we saw was undescribable. We saw big 5, hundreds of thousands antelope and zebras during the great migration. But the most incredible experience was view of 44 elephants walking thru dry Amboseli lake. Everything because our driver and guide Patrick! He knew everything, was very patient and he shares his love to wild life to us. Car was comfortable even when driving for 10 hours. We upgraded our accommodations and it was a great choise. Everyone during our trip were very friendly and helpful. This 6 days I will remember to the end of my life!

GREAT short Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater Trip!
We saw almost all animals except for rhinos and it was just amazing to see all the animals up close, in their herds/families during beautiful sunrises, and sunsets and in an incredible landscape even if it was the dry seasons.
The Suricata team was terrific all the way from the guide to the cook and the campsites were so magical sleeping so close to the animals. I can highly highly highly recommend this trip!
