Amazing Safari + Trekking tour in Mikumi & Udzungwa National Parks
5/5

We booked a tour with Daily Expeditions in short advance, but despite of that they were very helpful and flexible, and they were able to meet our needs with no hesitation. Overall, our tour was amazing. We had 1,5 days of game drive in Mikumi National Park, which not only lived up to our expectations but exceeded our expectations greatly. We got super close to the animals, and our guide was fantastic. We also had one day of hiking to the top of Udzungwa waterfall from where we had the most beautiful view. I can highly recommend this tour!

Top experience
5/5

has been an unfeasible experience, we saw in only three the big 5, and all the animals that we wanted to see, the treatment from the first day was great, the driver and guide gave us good information and thanks to the locating many animals .... Totally advisable .... thanks wildlife oasis

Incredible Safari experience
5/5

Esther
Thank you so much organising a wonderful safari for the five of us. It was excellent. No concerns or worries, everything went to plan and Tonny was excellent. He managed to find us the 'Big 5' and gave us a lot of game viewing opportunities. We also managed to see several cheetahs and both a Leopard and a lion up a tree!! Beyond our expectations!! Tonny was very professional, knowledgable and kept to the tight time schedules whilst still giving us sufficient time for breaks. He should be commended for his driving ability on the incredibly bumpy roads !!

The camps were great too. Lake Nakuru camp with their beautiful lodges that looked over the park and the refreshing swimming pool. Enkorok mara Camp was wonderful too!! we just loved the canopied luxury tents and its wonderful friendly staff. They surprised the 'honeymoon' couple with a decorated bed of petals and then on our last night a surprise bush diner for the five of us!!! not only a diner but a dance performance by the maasi Mara tribesmen - Thank you Esther for organising this for us, it was magical!! James our son even joined in with the Maasi mara dance !! A once in a life time experience.

We truly had a magnificent time and couldn't have wished for anything better.

On a personal note, Esther, as a tour organiser was excellent, very helpful and extremely prompt with her communication and our requests, she went over and beyond her role!!

Fanuel made my life long dream a reality!
5/5

I must start saying that this was by far the best trip I have ever taken in my life. We found Fanuel on Safari Bookings. We did a lot of extensive research about safaris in Tanzania and the package that Fanuel offered us blew all of the others out of the water both with itinerary and price.

We started our trip with some driving to The Selous game reserve and we checked into a beautiful Lodge with great hosts, excellent food and staff. We did a boat safari in the Rufiji River, many animals even those you aren't expecting to see. Beautiful sunset, it was the perfect afternoon. Next day we went to the Selous and encountered an elephant outside the park that was very curious of us and came up close. Later during lunch we found a lion sleeping in the shelter that was supposed to be our picnic spot. We drove to Mikumi and then visited Udzunwa NP, during the drive we saw a lot of villages and parts of Tanzania we never imagined. The hike was nice to the tallest waterfall in a national park in Tanzania, the view was fantastic and we got to see some endemic species.

We drove then to Ruaha NP, which was by far our favorite. We spent the night in the Cottages inside the park and It has so magical and a lot has to do with Fanuel. He picks every place very thoughtfully and put a magic trip together. We requested the mid range option for our trip, yet we felt like VIPs the whole time. He is very knowledgeable, he is an excellent person not just polite but with a great heart. Everything we saw, and experienced was amazing and that couldn't been possible without Fanuel putting it together, you can trust him making the decisions for you.

Now, almost everybody wants to go to the northern circuit because it's more popular or its the first thing that shows when you look up Tanzania. But the southern circuit is what you are looking for if you want to feel like a VIP with a private Safari, we only encountered 2 or 3 other cars in each place we did game drives, it's like having the place to yourselves, something impossible in the other side.

From the beginning everything was friendly and personalized, he gave us his input regarding dates to have a better game viewing and it worked. A lot of emails since it was our first time having someone plan our whole trip ( accommodation, food, flights, transfers) so we had many questions and he answered them all very prompt.

Thank God everyone took the time to leave reviews about Fanuel on Safari Bookings, there is no other way we could have found him.

5/5

I loved my trip to Tanzania. I did a 4 day northern circuit safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro) which was incredible. I was able to see an incredible diversity of animals in their natural habitats including a large variety of birds. I also went to the Gombe Stream National Park and was able to observe chimpanzees in their natural environment on the banks of Lake Tanganyika. Accommodations were standard tents for the northern circuit and acceptable lodging at a rest house for the Gombe Stream safari. My guides and chefs were amazing, professional, and experienced.

Splendid trip to Sabi Sands
Overall rating
5/5

Our family group of six stayed at Jaci Sabi house in Sabi Sands and had a wonderful experience. Ralph, our ranger, and Nkosi, our tracker did a splendid job of finding animals for us. We spent more hours pursuing animals with Ralph and Nkosi than we did on our prior visit to Sabi Sands five years ago. We did more searching for animals in the dark on this trip than on our previous trip. Highlights of this trip included nearly an hour spent with a leopard including seeing the female leopard kill and eat a crested francolin; an hour spent with a pride of ten lions that included five females and five cubs, all in a lazy post prandial state. We saw bush babies, civet cat, genet using spotlight after dark. The birding was terrific with sightings of fish eagle, tawny eagle, Bataleur eagle, Verreaux's eagle owl, pearl spotted owlet, ground hornbill, goshawk, crested barbet, lilac breasted roller, ostrich male and female, oriole, go away bird, others that I would need to check my notes for. I saw many, many owls on this trip, which was not the case on my previous trip. We visited Sabi Sands five years ago and had a wonderful experience then as well, staying at Chitwa Chitwa. Jaci Sabi house is smaller, with a group size of six the usual maximum. The Jaci Sabi House household staff were wonderful and went out of the way to accommodate a wedding anniversary of our daughter and son in law that occurred during the trip. I am an amateur astronomer and visiting during new moon afforded terrific views of the southern Milky Way, southern cross, omega centauri, coal sack, eta carina, and before dawn the large and small Magellanic clouds were visible. I had no telescope but enjoyed binocular views of objects. Quite honestly, there were exquisite things to be seen around the clock, making it difficult to know when to sleep.

It was something beyond our imagination. The scenery, the animals, the Aruba Lodge with excelent food, and very nice and friendly guide Badry who did all he could to make our safari unforgetable. Tammy tours took very good care of us during our trip trying to do everything to show us as much as possible in Kenya
