Unforgettable experience in Kenya and Tanzania. Everline, the coordinator, was always available to help us for questions, changes or planning. Excellent guides like Chris in Kenya and Moffat in Amboseli and Kibera, the largest slum in Nairobi. Best memory: the Masai Mara with Chris

Twelve days 11 nights Best of Kenya and Tanzania Budget Safari 1.The most problem with this safari is that the number of items Mr. George put within a time span is impossible to execute. Either Mr. George does not have knowledge, or he simply try to deceive the customers. As a result, some of the game drives never had a chance to execute. 2. Budget safari does not mean you have to eat food in a restaurant with flies and with roadside dust. We did not take the food for two times in Kenya. It does not mean also that your 4x4 Jeep can be a local bus taking people whenever the direction is coming from the general manager. 3. Two nights tent in Masai Mara, Kenya was Okay. on the way to Tanzania, you are not sure which group are you in. People are coming and going all the way to Tanzania. 4. The tent in Tanzania was told as pitched tent. We never ever heard of it. We thought that it will be like we had in Masai Mara, Kenya. They should mention the size. It is Lx W x H = 3.5 feet x 3.5 feet x3.5 feet. The bathroom is public meaning there are nearly 100-150 people sharing the bathroom. You have to sleep on the ground. In Ngorongoro, the temperature was between 10-15C in the night, and you have to sleep with a sleeping bag on the ground. I do not know how people can sleep in that tent. 5. It was our misunderstanding about the pitched tent. So I requested, Mr. Benjamin D. Ngalali, the manager, in Tanzania, to book two hotels in Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We paid for two-night accommodation to Mr. George $710.00 US dollars. In addition to that, we have paid for our two-night accommodation in Twiga Lodge & camp site, MTO WA MBU Branch, Arusha : $206.00 US dollars. (ref. no. 322219716601 & 322610183914). 6. As a matter of fact, coming here in Twiga Lodge site we saw the tents and were frightened and thought that we will never be able to back to USA. Frightened, I sent four messages to Mr. George, General manager of the tour, Kenya Head quarter, but he did not feel to reply to my four messages. Great George! 7. I will give him for his performance F-. I will not recommend this tour who want to see all the games and the animals. In the beginning, I have mentioned that within the time frame allotted, it is not possible to execute all the games. But, these people will do business like that. I will pray to God that All Might God should give them some commonsense to realize the facts and will be transparent and should not be a money-making machine. Lack of honesty. I cannot be more positive about this tour. The itinerary which you can fulfill, still you will send to the customers. Once you have the money and forget the customer.This will not be the motto of the business. Dr. Tapan K. Gupta Professor and doing research in Oncology for 39 years, in the University of USA.

Plus: many animals encountered (4 of the "big five") and quite close, as they can be approached easily in the park. It was great! Minus: no airport pick-up but in the city center, with a cab to pay extra ($60 return). Park fees also quite high ($200/person). Accommodation a little below our expectations and description (hot and cold water problems).
