    Wonderful experience of Serengeti, Ngorogoro Crater, Omoroko mountains and Zanzibar. Camping was fine, good food, great people, wonderful guides and not too expensive. But way too much driving in between.

    Asked on August 7th, 2024

    Can I extend my stay in Zanzibar after the tour?

  • D

    Dennis

    Asked on March 17th, 2024

    Is it true that April is a rain season in Tanzania - so not good period of time for tourists?

    Tour Details
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten March 2024

      April is a rainy season in Tanzania. Actually, the rainy season is from March to the end of May. The only setback may be just the cold weather then, but wildlife and game viewing is still great. Alternatively, if you are flexible with their travel plans, you can opt for the June through September period which is much warmer, with a much better wildlife experience.

  • I

    Ivan

    Asked on January 17th, 2024

    I would like to inquire about a vacation in more detail. Can I customize it so that I spend two weeks on the beach in Zanzibar after I do the basic tour? In other words, I would like to do a 7-day tour and then add two weeks on the beach.

    Tour Details
    Travel Support

    Rob

    Asked on December 4th, 2023

    Where would we be staying the first night in Nairobi on 28th Jan? Could we go from airport straight to hotel and meet at 6pm for the meeting? If we wanted to stay longer in Zanzibar could we swap the last night in Stone Town to 3/4 days later enabling us to stay in northern beaches for longer? How much is the pre booked balloon flight in the Serengeti and how much is it on the day?
