Reviews of Beho Beho

"Still cannot be faulted - the best camp ever! Welcoming and friendly staff make a great atmosphere." See all these reviews: 14n in Tanzania

"Probably our most memorable overall camp experience anywhere in Africa. The location and facilities are stunning, and the camp succeeds brilliantly in conveying the feeling of being a guest at a house party, rather than just a "customer". Guiding is excellent, with - to us - the ideal balance of professionalism and personal relationship. We were lucky enough to bump into our splendid guide Onno on the plane flying into the Selous, so we had a chance to get to know him early.

We visited at a time when the wet season was arriving a bit early, so the whole area was beautifully green and the animals were fat and happy - a highly recommended experience if you've only ever experienced the dry season before. Getting around does become more difficult though, so be prepared to get stuck in the mud a few times!

Game viewing was very good overall, with particularly good bird sightings. Above all else we visited Beho Beho (hopefully) to see wild dogs, and we were lucky enough to have two extended sightings of a large and relaxed pack - wonderful. Highly recommended.

One final comment - the food was utterly outstanding - when you sit down to lobster on your first night in camp you know you're in good hands! Oh, and one final final comment - my snooker record was played 2, won 2, so Augustine needs to keep practising!" See all these reviews: 9n in Tanzania; 5n in Zanzibar

"Truely an outstanding and memorable experience. Without a doubt the best lodge we have ever stayed in anywhere in the world. Just about everything was perfect from the quality of the guides, the accommodation, the food, the wildlife, sundowners, the management and the overall ambience.

It's everything you would expect from a top quality safari lodge from the initial impressions / personal greetings on arrival right through to the day we had to reluncantly leave. The guides are some of the best we have ever experienced and the walking safaris exceptional.

We were very sorry to leave and if we had a critisism it would be that 4 nights was not long enough and we could eaisly stayed for another couple of nights.

Thank you Expert Africa for recommending the Beho Beho lodge to us." See all these reviews: 10n in Zanzibar; 8n in Tanzania

"Accommodation was fabulous, particularly loved having coffee at dawn watching the bush before a game drive.
I found the food excellent, Mark said it was good - he doesn't like mixed foods or self service (for lunch).
We wanted for nothing. Best Christmas I have had as an adult (despite having a virus (from England).
Didn't get time to use the swimming pool.
Thought all the staff were brilliant. Everyone so friendly. Very easy to relax.
Excellent knowledge of local animals, plants, birds etc etc.
Chalets were exceptional, attention to detail amazing.
Animals in abundance, spolit for choice.
I'm speachless, actually!! Can't think of anything negative." See all these reviews: 11n in Tanzania; 5n in Zanzibar

"The level of service, the ambience and the sheer goodwill of all the staff was superb. The whole place was maintained to the point that it was possible to think that it was completed yesterday.

The guides on the game drives were patient, knowledgeable and good company and the vehicles were even washed between drives!

We had a wonderful time that we will never forget." See all these reviews: 9n in Tanzania; 8n in Zanzibar

"Flying in to the private airport was a wonderful way to begin - the welcome we got from Tamlyn was gorgeous. We felt at home immediately. She made us feel as though we were the first visitors that year! Our individual rooms were a wow factor - we all swooned over the extreme comfort and coolness of them and could have spent a lot moire time in them very easily.

However, we were there to see the animals as well as indulging ourselves. We loved the house party atmosphere and having dinner in so many different places was a real treat. The food was excellent and the service was superb - we left feeling like royalty.

The game drives were interesting - we had to really look for animals - Onno certainly found the ones that were there for us - we had a ball with him - so thank you Onno for a very amusing few days. In particular, we loved the dry river drive where we saw the bee-eaters catching all the swallowtails and other insects and diving into their little holes in the riverbank. The Tagalala Lake day was extremely enjoyable - we'll never have such a surprise breakfast again, I'm sure.

The highlight of our Beho Beho visit were the two walks we did with Sacha and Sean. The walk with Sean on our last evening when we walked with the elephants and a hippo was breathtaking. I think it is a great shame that walking was not "pushed" more - perhaps from you in London. Walks there did not seem to be as hot as expected - at Mwagusi it was really hot and our ranger was not nearly so informative - so we had been slightly put off walking there! Walking with Sacha and Sean was a wonderful experience and we really regret that we did not do more at Beho Beho." See all these reviews: 7n in Tanzania; 7n in Mozambique

"Beho Beho was truly amazing! From the hospitality to the views, the food to the luxury of the rooms one could not find a fault.

It is well-worth the cost, a once in a life time experience." See all these reviews: 10n in Tanzania

"An absolutely amazing experience, wonderful.

Great place, great food, great staff." See all these reviews: 7n in Zanzibar; 5n in Tanzania

"The guided walks led by Sean and Sacha are one of our best safari experiences yet. The game drives led by Onno are also excellent. They have great expertise in their knowledge of the plants and animals, and also in judging their guests appetite for adventure and stamina. Tracking (or avoiding) elephant on foot requires a huge amount of trust in your guide but is an unforgetable experience.

Beho Beho's hosptality is excellent too. The quality and variety of food was the best we have had at any safari lodge. Dinner has a lovely houseparty atmosphere, aided by generous servings of drinks and comfortable squashy sofas for pre and post dinner relaxing. Housekeeping is faultless and seems to happen by magic. Not once did we see a cleaner but our room was always immaculate." See all these reviews: 7n in Tanzania; 7n in Zanzibar
