Our September 2018 trip
Tanzania and 1 other country between 9 Sep 2018 and 23 Sep 2018
"This was a trip of a lifetime and we had an outstanding time. The number of different animals on safari was incredible and the differences between Ruaha and Selous made the trip complete. Great camps, great service, great food and great activities. Who could ask for anything more? Memories to last a lifetime."

Siwandu
"Siwandu Camp"
3 nights
Arrived
11 Sep 2018
"Siwandu is a well run professional operation with very good rooms and meals. The managers take great pride in supporting ecological endeavours and making the camp a part of the environment. The meals were very good and it was wonderful having a pool available during the day. We saw a great variety of wildlife which often required some off-road exploration."

"A very interesting and unique hotel. The rooms are decorated in local colours and are quite comfortable. Difficult to get to since no vehicles are allowed in Stonetown but this is part of the charm."

Matemwe Lodge
"Matemwe Lodge review"
3 nights
Arrived
19 Sep 2018
"Very relaxing and secluded location. If you want to just "re-charge" then this is the place. Horrible roads for the last 20 minutes to get there. Don't expect much activity but the management are very good and the meals were excellent."
