Client Review
Tanzania Safaris
From the moment we drove into the first national park we were greeted with wildlife. We didn't expect to see such sites so early into our drive, we look back now and smile, because that was merely a taste, the true sights were yet to come. And did they ever! Thanks to the uncanny skill and knowledge of our driver, were came face to face with the Big Five on ways we could never have imagined! Getting up close and personal with these wild creatures was something we thought you could only see on television. We have never been so happy to be wrong! Our guide used his vast experience to navigate the often hidden trails of these massive reserves to bring us many once in a lifetime sights. Simply breathtaking and beyond words.
Our trip was crafted and brought together with the team from Rickshaw Travel who will offer their knowledge and experience patiently as you plan and prepare this often overwhelming event. From our first contact right up until our return home, Rickshaw Travel's representatives were there to ensure everything went smooth and took away the worries and concerns that often come with planning and executing a trip like this far from your home. No need to worry, you're in good hands. Relax, enjoy and take in thing that most people can only see in magazine and on TV.
