Reviews for Tanzania national park vacation, off the beaten path
Rosemarie review 15 Nov 2023
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
We had incredible opportunities to see the most amazing animals close up, so wildlife encounters were the definite highlight. We chose to go on a longer safari since this maximized our time on our once-in-a-lifetime trip. This meant that we were able to appreciate the wonders of the well-known parks of Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater but also to have the Endumet Wildlife Conservation area and Mkomazi National Park virtually to ourselves. We believe that we had the best guide in Africa. Abu had an uncanny knack to spot animals and birds and willingly shared his vast knowledge of wildlife, plants, geography and history. He patiently answered all our questions about daily life in Tanzania and even tried to teach us Swahili.2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Be prepared for long days in the vehicle but you will not be bored! There are endless conversations and sights. Roads are rough and dusty and you will appreciate your conscientious driver.3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
We were happy to use a small local company, so that the financial benefits stayed in the communities in the country. The company supports local initiatives such as environmental and empowerment projects.4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
Excellent! Outstanding! After a lifetime of saying I wanted to get to Africa someday, I finally did it! The whole trip far exceeded my already high expectations. If you can possibly swing it, go!! You will not regret it.Holiday Reviews
