"River location allows good boat trips. A morning walk followed by breakfast by a lagoon and a return boat trip was a highlight. The bird checklist was a good idea
Dining arrangements of seperate tables lead to a less sociable atmosphere in the evenings."

"Tamlyn and Kim made us most welcome and they created a lovely atmosphere with all the guests.
Guides Sean, Sacha and Onesmo very knowledgeable and made every drive, walk and boat trip really interesting even the trainee guide, Salum, gave us some wonderful sightings.
Large pack of wild dogs including 9 puppies were a highlight.
They expect to produce a bird and animal checklist in the near future."

1 night
Arrived
8 Oct 2008
"A gentle walk carefully avoiding hippo hyena and elephant took us to a luxury tent, the heavy rain inthe night added to the experience.
An early morning walk with lots of emerging flying termites gave an abundance of bird life.
A cooked breakfast and a walk back to Beho Beho with Sacha ended a memorable experience."

Feedback response
By email, these travellers elaborated that they had seen several additional species during their time at Sayari Camp that had not been present, or had not seen, when they had visited Ruaha and the Selous earlier in their trip. eg Thomson's gazelle, oribi plus a number of different birds.
The drinks at Mwagusi were twice the price of anywhere else and had to pay for water over and above the first bottle"
