Tarangire one day safari - Amazing experience!

Thom can spot all of the animals!!

The best!

Safari was good, guide less so…
I usually don’t leave a comment when I’m dissatisfied with a tour or service, but a safari is on another level in terms of cost, especially when you choose a private one. First, the positives: the person I corresponded with by email...
