My Aug 2022 trip

Tanzania and 2 other countries between 24 Aug 2022 and 12 Sep 2022

Trip rating: Excellent
"Great trip.

But we should have just stayed in one Northern Serengeti camp as the two were so close. Ideally Sayara for 4-5 night, but with different staff. All guides were great."

"Lovely tree house with many luxury features. We really enjoyed the stay.

Staff were amazing and added many personal touches to our stay, such as a private dinner by the pool.

Our guide Anthony was fantastic and great company."

The Highlands

"The Highlands review"

3 nights Arrived 27 Aug 2022
"We loved the modern feel to the place. Staff and food were great. Our guide Emmanuel was well informed and personable.

It gets very cold there even with a fire in the room. The staff did there best and even ordered an electric blanket for my husband.

We would have liked the option for longer hikes (around the lake in the crater)."

Safari in Ngorongoro Crater

"Safari in Ngorongoro Crater review"

28 Aug 2022 • All-day excursion

It is incredibly touristy. But there are a lot of animals to see.

But expect 20 plus jeeps at every cat sighting

"Olakira review"

3 nights Arrived 30 Aug 2022
"A more basic camp, but with many attractive features.

Staff were keen and attentive but were notable less experienced than those elsewhere.

Our guide Juma was good fun and worked hard for us"

Sayari Camp

Sayari Camp

"Sayari Camp review"

3 nights Arrived 2 Sep 2022
"Excellent facilities. Really luxurious camp. Fantastic game viewing with our best and most experienced guide yet, Partena.

Facilities staff were the least personable or any of the camps. Apart from the welcome, we barely saw the camp managers.

Our butler took a clear dislike to my husband after he complained (politely and with valid grounds) about being served warm white wine, cold food in a freezing room where they left all the doors open"
