Unforgetable introduction to safari holidays
On this trip, I visited Tanzania & Zanzibar between 14-Jan-2012 and 27-Jan-2012 and I travelled with 1 other person.
Maybe we were just very lucky and fortunate enough to have a guide to ourselves for most of the drives in Selous and Ruaha.
The animals were very co-operative often at very close quarters especially in presenting their young and often in rare situations e.g. a pride of lions with three very young cubs, a cheetah chasing impala and in turn being chased by baboons, a week old elephants being carried across a lake and giraffes fighting.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Although it turned out that we did have sufficient, we would have appreciated a little bit more guidance on how much money to take with us.
