simply a message to express how unique you made our safari. From greeting us at the airport, despite any delays, to staying at the magnificent Arusha Planet Lodge, to the actual safari, and finally to the airport drop-off. John our tour guide, was remarkably punctual and meticulous. We both enjoyed the talents, expertise, and enthusiasm very lot. More animals of a higher diversity than we could have imagined were visible to us. Every day was energizing, and our meals were delicious, made with fresh, local food. Lastly, we would like to thank Peniel for his amazing work organizing this unique week and for his quick responses to all of our emails. Janet and Mike..

Our 7 days safari in Tanzania was above and above my expectations; We did a camping safari, it will always remain a memorable experience. We are really appreciative to our friends for recommending the company and our guide Anton to us. We had a quick and easy email exchange with the owner, so we knew precisely what to anticipate when we got there. During the tour, Benson, the cook, took good care of our tummies and was a really kind guide who gave us a lot of information! Throughout the trip, I realized that the guide and cook truly can make all the difference between an incredible and dreadful experience. We had a great time because we were well-cared for, which is why picking a reputable business is crucial.
