"My Oct 2014 trip"
"Tanzania 2014"
"Tanzania 2014 - superb"
The push for tour 2014 trip to Tanzania was to revisit some of the lands that we had driven through in 1971 with our 2-man tent. Most of the guides were not born when we first made the journey and they were interested in our experiences in another time.

"My Oct 2014 trip"
Thanks to Liz for helping us plan and putting everything in place.
Just one thing to point out - not a complaint just for your information!
On the return journey from Dar to Nairobi we had to wait one and a half hours before we could check in our baggage. This was not an ideal place to wait. Other travellers from Mafia were catching an earlier flight to Nairobi with Kenya Airways. If we could have caught that we could have spent the transfer time in the Business Lounge in Nairobi. However, our Mafia Dar flight could have been late if a diversion to Songa Songa had taken place as it did on the outward flight so maybe better to be safe than sorry!!"

"My Oct-Nov 2014 trip"
The animals were exciting, the food was outstanding, and we felt very well cared-for at all of our stops." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 11 on a Tanzania safari
"My Oct 2014 trip"
Since I am particularly interested in elephants and lions, I would have preferred to book my entire stay at Mwagusi. However, for a "first timer" the Selous Game reserve is beautiful and the landscape is absolutely stunning.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
If anybody indicates lions and elephants as their main interest. then advice them to go to Ruaha and not to Selous. However, I understand that my own concerns about off-road driving have influenced the decision to go to both Selous and Ruaha." Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari
