Smooth Trip
I was worried prior to the safari as the company didn’t have many reviews and not much online presence, however everything went smoothly. Communication from Natalia was really good throughout and they were very attentive. I always knew what was going to be happening, which made a big difference.
My plans were changed on arrival but it wasn’t a big deal. The waterfall wasn’t accessible due to rainy season weather, and the safari was done back to front, but it didn’t impact the overall experience.
The safari was shared and I was on the trip with others who had booked using different operators. It did highlight how well things were handled on my side, as others had issues with communication and some were even taken to the wrong accommodation.
My first guide, Rocky, was really good fun and very charismatic. I can’t say I believed all his facts but I had a great time. My second guide was a bit more serious but seemed very knowledgeable.
Tanzania safari is great, there’s a lot to see and the scenery is constantly changing so it never gets boring. The wildlife was incredible. Ngorongoro Crater was my favourite, it was beautiful and felt a bit surreal being there.
I was also worried about the camping beforehand, but it actually ended up being one of the best parts. The workers at Simba campsite were excellent, really welcoming, and the meal there was the best I had during the trip.
The only downside, and it was perhaps my own fault for not researching, was one of my accommodations in Arusha felt unsuitable. As a lone female traveller I felt uneasy with a back street entrance to one hotel and I did get hassled just stood in the doorway. I ended up moving myself to another hotel. Had I not been alone it wouldn’t have been an issue, and if I had looked at the details beforehand I may have requested to change it.
