Unforgettable experience! Cristian the best chef made me change my mind about Tanzanian cuisine! Giulian the guide was wonderful he did the impossible to show us all the animals, we also went to see the great migration which was unscheduled.. truly unique. Well organized tented camp, very cold in the evening (in August) I recommend heavy and light clothing for the day. The bathrooms had ice cold showers but after a day in a jeep with 30 degrees it's not so bad. Bottled water always available! Unbeatable price with others I had the chance to talk to who had turned to other agencies, the park tickets are really expensive. Thank you so much for everything we will return maybe to see other parks even if the Serengeti will always remain in my heart.

Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater are spectacular. The trip was well organised, our driver and cook first class. The only problem I had at the end was getting back to Kilimanjaro airport on the last day in time for my 6pm flight. After some discussion, the company organised a private car for me to take me from the Ngorongoro rim to the airport in time after a morning tour in the crater. Our driver Elly and the cook Christian were very helpful and reliable.

Excellent safari, right after I booked the safari I got a message from Patrick, the manager of the company, he gave me all the information about the safari and explained me the logistics. I did not have to worry about everything, they picked me up at the airport, arranged a hotel for me the the night before the safari and dropped me off at airport after the safari. The vehicle was very good, the food was great.

It was a unique experience with a breathtaking view, incredible expanses and an indescribable variety of species. After the balloon ride there was a delicious breakfast in the middle of the Serengeti. Once in a lifetime! Definitely recommended!

It was a great experience! We had two drivers and both of them gave their best to give us a memorable experience, we saw all the big 5 and much more. The accomodations were decent for the budget.
