Trip of a lifetime!

Tanzania between 20 Jul 2009 and 2 Aug 2009

Trip rating: Excellent
"Beho Beho and Oyster Bay have spoiled us for life. We are saving our pocket money again so that we can return!!
Especial thanks to Claire Scott for drawing up at least 8 different itineraries for us. thank you for being so patient.

It was the perfect honeymoon.

Suggestions for improvement:

Keep doing what you are doing!

Any location after BehoBeho was going to be a slight anticlimax. Thank you for warning us.

Apparently July/August is the windy season in Mafia?? - perhaps it is worth warning people in advance as certainly at the start of our stay alot of the excursions could not run. That was fine for us as we just wanted to relax but other guests there were very disappointed."

"EPIC!"

4 nights Arrived 21 Jul 2009
"If there ever was a "once"... this would be it. A once in a lifetime holiday, in a once in a lifetime location, with amazing scenery, wildlife and importantly fantastic characters. Attention to detail was impeccible, we felt spoilt for our entire stay. Thanks to Sacha and Tam for ensuring all ran smoothly and to Sean, Onesmo and Salum for their expert guiding.

Memories of this stay will be etched on our minds forever..."

"Wow!"

1 night Arrived 25 Jul 2009
"Certainly got our adrenalin flowing! Some hairy encounters with elephants on our way to bushcamp added to the experience.

Camp was beyond luxurious.

Despite being so close to nature we slept like babies!!"

"Pole Pole review"

6 nights Arrived 26 Jul 2009
"Mixed bag - excellent location, was a bit blustery to start with but did improve.

A little overfaced with food - too many courses and at times too rich. Swahili night was great.

Poor maintenance of mosquito nets did present a problem. Lyn was very friendly but seemed to be playing catchup as she had just taken over the management of the lodge this season.

Really enjoyed the trips snorkelling and sailing to the sandbank."

"Perfect end"

1 night Arrived 1 Aug 2009
"Fantastic in every way. Looks unassuming from the outside but the inside...WOW!

Service was the best we have ever experienced. Nothing was too much trouble and the service was very individual and personable.
Really enjoyed eating with the other guests.

The only down side was that we did not stay here longer."
