road to the Indian Ocean
MY trip to Mozambique is actually the end of a trip that started in Zambia and after crossing this country and Malawi, I reached the Mozambique border to cross the country from west to east until I reached the Indian Ocean. Mozambique is not a country that stands out for its wild fauna, greatly diminished by the effects of the civil war suffered by the country. The best parks are located in the state that border the borders of South Africa and Zimbabwe. But if it is endowed with a great scenic beauty, with extensive wooded plains on which protrude gigantic rock of rock, some of almost a thousand meters, that break the uniformity and give a magical aspect to the environment. The beaches of its coasts and islands are totally of very white sand and have nothing to envy to those that can be found in the Caribean or in the Pacific. The water of the ocean is of an intense and warm blue and it is easy to find whales jumping on them or approaching the boats, especially in the area of Ilha de Mozambique. Mangroves are also frequent, where the movements of the tide reveal an intricate labyrinth of channels on the sand, very rich in small marine fauna and birds, at low tide
People are generally friendly and curious about foreigners, and unlike in other African countries, there is an effort to recover part of the colonial splendor, of some settlements which are accompanied by restorations and the appearance of very well-kept hotel establishments. a high level of comfort and services that are promoting a tourism of greater adqusive power and very focused on relaxation or aquatic activities such as coral reef diving or navigation. It is possible that if the political stability of the country is maintained, Mozambique is called to be a country with a strong attraction for its possibilities. If we add to this its culinary culture, mixing the local with the Portuguese, the attractiveness of the country increases remarkably.
As security, it is not a troubled country in general and keeping with minimal care especially in the cities at nightfall as it happens in many Western cities, you should not have problems. Some guerrilla centers have appeared in the north near the border with Tanzania, linked to the appearance of oil in that area, but of little and infrequent activity

Amazing safari with Uhuru
Very good upfront communication with Margaret. The tour was awesome and for a very competitive price. Our driver could tell us a lot about the parks and animals and we got to see many of them. Thank you!

absolutely amazing experience. exceptionally well coordinated, organised and executed.
we had the most amazing 4 days. in the lead up Alym was super accommodating, helpful and prompt with his communications and organisation which made us feel comfortable from the offset. our driver Hassan was extremely insightful and was a joy to tour with for 4 days. His knowledge and navigation of some tricky roads was fantastic. East Africa Wild adventures gave us a magical experience we will remember for the rest of our lives. highly recommend their services and expertise which is professional and friendly.

Wonderful safari with lots of animals
I had an excellent safari in Nairobi National Park with Shem of Kibera Holiday Safaris. Within a short time after entering the Park, I had seen lions, rhinos, giraffes, lots of zebras, gazelles, buffaloes, and birds. I did not expect to get so close to so many animals, so quickly. Highly recommended!

Thanks for making our dream come true!
Many thanks for this wonderful trip. Everything was perfectly organized. Communication beforehand was always immediate and precise. Mid-range accomodations on tour were chosen very well. The tented camp experiences were extraordinary.
And, this service was more than topped by our friendly, warmhearted, knowledgable, gentle and funny guide Ossi. Asante sana. He was always on the right spot at the right time. We finally completed our Big Five and had so many more extraordinary animal observations! It was a pleasure to spend those 6 days with Ossi and learn not only a lot about Tanzania's wonderful nature (ina pendesa) or about the thousands of various animals (ina pendesa tena) but also some Swahili (kila kitu poa?). It couldn't have been a better match. And by the way, Ossi is an excellent driver - which is very relevant on these "massage roads" :-)
These 6 days were definitely an experience which will stay in our memory forever. And when we come back to Tanzania, we will for sure book again with kind (!) Lion King Adventures AND with Ossi. We can also recommend to anyone to book through Lion King.
Asanta sana tena for this unforgettable time!

From planning to actual trip, all worked extremely well with Bush Drifters. Patrick is a gem.
Edward, the office manager, does an exceptional job being in communication about the safari while organizing and planning the itinerary. This is my second safari with Bush Drifters and in planning this trip, Bush Drifters took great care to plan a different and very interesting experience. All financial arrangements were easily transacted. The trip, itself, was outstanding.
The safari was beyond words. We had such a great time with Patrick, our guide and owner of Bush Drifters. We saw much more than on our previous trip with Patrick, six years earlier, even though we thought that trip to be near perfect. Patrick is incredibly knowledgeable and knows where to be at the right time to see as much as we possibly could. He is well versed on all things safari. He could answer any question and was a tremendous resource to us. His comfort with and use of the English language was excellent. There were four of us on safari and all was very comfortable in the vehicle (as comfortable as one could be driving through the Serengheti!). The vehicle itself was kept extremely clean and there was plenty of cool water available at all times. Patrick has the ability to find wildlife in places where we never felt crowded by other safari groups.
It was so wonderful to travel with Bush Drifters again and to have Patrick as our guide. I would not travel with anyone else in Tanzania. I consider Patrick and Edward to be good friends as anyone would by the time they return from safari. Patrick was not only a fabulous resource for us but it was obvious, through his communications and professional relationships with other guides, that he is highly respected by others.
I highly recommend Bush Drifters as the safari organizers and guides with whom to travel. Patrick knows how to find all animals and is able to identify birds and plants without problem. He is particularly good at geting a good spot to take the perfect photo. The places that we stayed during our safari were all outstanding and each different from the other. Incredible journey!!!
