7-Day Tanzania Getaway Review

At the outset, we set out our budget, the type of accommodation we wanted and what we hoped to see, and Discover Africa delivered on everything.
The travel arrangements – including ground and air transport worked smoothly – at each stage we were kept up to date with any schedule changes imposed by the airlines etc.

 

“Everything we hoped for – and more!”

Our accommodation was just what we expected – both tented camps were comfortable with friendly welcoming staff who worked hard to ensure that we were happy. The food was good – nothing fancy but wholesome and plentiful if you wanted – in particular, the breakfast and lunch boxes were well thought out with a good variety.

There was a good selection of house drinks along with tea, coffee, etc. The Hot water bottles in the tented camp above Ngorongoro were very welcome – we hadn’t expected it to be quite that cold.

Both guides were excellent – friendly, considerate and helpful but above all immensely knowledgeable on animals and birds.
We saw everything we expected to see and more – and to be honest, more than we had even hoped for.

Our main goal was the Migration Crossing the Mara River but we also saw the Big Five – over two days – along with most of the other animal species and a wonderful variety of birdlife.

We have enjoyed previous safaris in Botswana – Okavanga Delta and Northern Kalahari – and in South Africa – Kruger and KZN – but this trip was probably the best overall safari experience that we have had.

Based on our experience, we would be happy to recommend Discover Africa to anyone interested in a Safari trip anywhere in Africa.
