Five Locations - Five Incredible Experiences
Paul and I together planned five very diverse experiences over a 3 week Tanzania safari. First was Arusha in the North and a deep dive into this high paced African city and all of the wonderful diversity of people, cultures and perspectives it holds. There I spent most of my time in the local markets and places not often visited by tourists. Chem Chem was my first deep dive into the bush and Tanzania's amazing wildlife. Here at Chem Chem, the guide, the Maasai warrior companion for walking safari, and the hospitality are simply exceptional. On to Ndutu in the Serengetti with Nomad Safaris, more exceptional guiding and a team with deep respect and care for the wildlife. Here I watched a male Cheetah finish a kill on a Wildebeest and much, much more. Then to Ruaha National Park in the South for its abundant elephant populations, big cats and as elsewhere remarkable bird species diversity. Finally to Chole Island in the Mafia Archipelago where I lived for several a in tree house.
Paul's knowledge of Tanzania, its people, its wildlife and the biodiversity of this beautiful country made this experience possible. Its is hard to imagine a better experience than I had with Paul Tickner Safaris. It doesn't get any better than this. I would give Paul my highest recommendation and my deepest thanks.
Rogers is an excellent tour guide, we have so much fun with him.
We apreciet the help and company of Roger, he was the best Tour guide that we meet in Africa. Congratulations for his lovely work.

Frank will take care of you.
From communication to the actual game drive in Akagera Park, Frank was very helpful. The tour itself was fantastic. We had a guide with us who was very familiar with the local wildlife and could answer any questions we had. Frank took his time on the drive, even doubling back for missed picture opportunities! He made the tour as memorable for us as he could. There was never a "drive them around and get done" attitude.
If you are planning a trip to any of the countries Frank conducts business in I highly recommend Golden Rwanda Safaris. He made our trip a most memorable one for my daughter and I.
Thanks Frank!

Best week of my life!
I spent 6 days with Tony on an adventure of a lifetime that took me from Maun to Kasane. Along the way I experience many wondrous things: I took a canoe ride through the Okavango Delta; passed through Madabe Game Reserve where I saw elephants, giraffe, buffalo, wildebeest, many kinds of antelope, ostrich, an abundance of birds and lions; spent 3 wonderful days in Savuti, where Tony used his incredible tracking skills to find us 3 leopards and a pride of lions with cubs. the bird life in Savuti was remarkable - if you love raptors, you will love Savuti; finally, I had 2 days in Moremi Game Reserve where Tony took me on an exhilarating night drive and I also saw a honey badger, porcupines, wild dogs, hippos, eagles, lions, hyenas, jackals, vervet monkeys, crocodiles, bush babies and, my personal favourite, a dung beetle pushing along a cricket ball sized ball of dung.
It was fun and exciting to sleep in tents with the sounds of the jungle at night going on around me, and the T-bone steaks that Tony cooked up on the BBQ were delicious. Simple living at its finest.
You can only see what you see and this is a good mantra to take into any safari. But, with the experience Tony can give you, your chances of seeing something remarkable are greatly enhanced. He is mightily passionate about the animals he shares the wonderful country of Botswana with and is a tremendously entertaining character with a wonderfully gentle soul. His stories will inspire you and his knowledge of the animals you are watching will fascinate you.

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful experience.
My girlfriend and I had a wonderful experience. It was our first time that we went to Tanzania and Zanzibar. The accommodations, the food, the great friendliness and service were heartwarming. We have been with Travelbird, everything was perfectly arranged. Worth repeating. Thanks to Eric, our wonderful guide!

Magical, knowledgeable & fun
We visited the mikumi national park with Julius our guide.
All communication beforehand was done with ease with email and WhatsApp.
Julius sent us information for the trip and what to bring, and made reservations for hotels of our choosing.
Julius picked us up in dar es salaam and the long journey started. On the road we got to know Julius, a smart man with a lot of knowledge.
We made coffee by the road, stopped at a local cafe for lunch, and reached mikumi roughly 7 hours later.
Although it was a long drive, we were excited and Julius bursted with more information, carisma and joy when we arrived.
The first day we saw a lot of giraffes, monkeys, some elephants in the distance, a lot of birds, hippos and more. After a couple of hours in the national Park, Julius took us to the hotel where we would spend the night.
The next morning we had breakfast together and we went back to the park. We saw lions, more elephants and giraffes up close, it was magical.
The journey back to Daar es salaam was long but fun.
We had a great time and we would do it again! We highly recommend Julius and his services.
