Something Special (one in a lifetime)
Overall rating
4/5

We did only a 3 full day safari which is quiet short but was enough for us! Our Safari Guide frome „Lion King Adventure“ was really friendly but also a little bit tooo careful while driving on the „normal roads“ everyone will overrun us even the big trucks.. he was afraid of a big fine.
Also we went to Tiarangire, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. Our Guide was sad we did‘t book Serengeti (because it was too far away for us). And he didn‘t want to go home to his family because of a lot of bills, so he made us feel bad.. They don‘t have enough work / safaris to do / to less tourists.
We REALLY liked the „Karatu tented lodge“ in Karatu where we stayed for 2 nights!
Before and after the Safari we slept each one night in Arusha in the „Mount Meru“ Hotel, also recommend this hotel.

After the Safari we went to Zanzibar and we loved the north of it!! (Nungwi!) Probably the most beautiful Beach ever!
2 days it was raining a little bit but nothing bad.
The service in the Hotel was not as good as expected (sundies baobab hotel), we only booked B&B and went to different restaurants for lunch & dinner at the beach. That was amazing food and really cheap!
After 1 Week we went to the South of Zanzibar (Kizimkazi), we really liked the hotel (fruit & spice) but at the beach it was really windy and the beach was not really nice! Next time I wouldn‘t go to the South.. maye east, but definitely loved the North!

Went to Mikumi National Park and got to see most of the known animals. Also visit ed the Masai Village in Morogoro which was a great experience. Lodging at Camp Bastian was good. Nice and clean chalets and good food

Tanzania was every bit as good as we had hoped.
Overall rating
4/5

We did not know what to expect from a Safari tour, or from Tanzania in general. For us it was a step into uncharted territory.
I’m delighted to say that the trip proved to be outstanding. Our Safari was a remarkable experience and one which I would wholeheartedly recommend. To see so much wildlife in a natural habitat was amazing.
Other than the tour we did not explore Tanzania more widely. We did stay in a hotel in Dar Es Salaam for one night at each end of our Safari. The hotel staff and the hotel itself were very good. In fact a warm and gracious welcome awaited us everywhere we visited our stayed on the mainland and then afterwards when we stayed in Zanzibar for one week. That Safari/Zanzibar combination makes for a great holiday.
Not only was the food good in most places we visited, but Swahili generosity extends to portion size as well - so you will not find yourself going hungry in Tanzania.
If you don’t visit Tanzania you are definitely missing out on a terrific experience.

Overall rating
4/5

We’ve been to Zanzibar and the mainland. The mainland for Safari. Stil very beautiful but compared with 4 years ago the national park ‘nyerere’ in Selous had become very touristic and commercial.
At lunchtime all the jeeps came together at the same spot and the place was crowded. The camp where we stayed however was perfect, Nice rooms and very good food!!!!

An amazing safari experience
Overall rating
4/5

We did the safari with Serengeti Wakanda tours and they are the best. The safari was amazing and our Driver Praise was very good with knowledge and the chef Ashruf is very good with his cooking :). Parks were amazing we went to Tarangire, lake manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro.

One thing I didn’t feel comfortable is when I used to go out of the hotel when I was staying in arusha as everyone is straing at us walking but no one bothered us. But still we preferred staying in instead of going out.

Zanzibar and Safari at Arusha
Overall rating
4/5

Everything went as planned, one have to expect a few hiccups when visiting Africa. Things linke when travelling with family avoid budget accommodation unless you don't mind cold shower I the winter or weak WiFi signal that will upset kids or kids selecting food outside the menu.

All in all we came to Arusha for the Safari, and it was great experience with Colour of Africa "Hamis" he accommodated us to his level best.

I would highly recommend him.
