My Aug 2011 trip

Tanzania between 2 Aug 2011 and 12 Aug 2011

Trip rating: Good
"A good trip overall but slightly disapointed by Kinasi. Safari was good as far as game drives went but I think they could make time at the camp a little more special.

Oyster Bay was the 5 star start and end to the trip"

"Wonderful oasis in Dar"

1 night Arrived 3 Aug 2011
"Simply fantastic - great people, rooms and food.

A brilliant stop over on way to safari when 24 hours there brought me down from the stress of work and set me up for the holiday"

"A real experience"

3 nights Arrived 4 Aug 2011
"The game drives were good with excellent staff and, luckily, marvalous game.

I liked the accomodation but did feel that the ambience generally could be improved by making a bit more of sundowners, not always eating out and allowing guests to use the dining area after dinner (which they did on the last night).

The food was fine if a little curry focussed and the staff were brilliant about trying to accomodate my sugar intolerance"

"Not quite what we hoped"

4 nights Arrived 7 Aug 2011
"Food was disappointing. I expected a much higher calibre.

The staff were lovely and tried hard but communication was a bit hit or miss and I didn't feel the management was totally in control. We were unlucky with the weather and my favourite shirt and some other items were attacked by a bird or little animal in the room which did put a bit of a downer on things and it didn't start well with a wrangle at the gates over whether we had paid the entrance fees.

To be fair, the room was good as are the communal areas and a big plus was the spa where I had some of the best massages ever."
