Park Selous is beautiful only agency and terrible guide

2 / 5 2 /5
4 / 5 3 / 5 4 / 5 3 / 5

The Selous Park is beautiful. And so many of our dibrtch memories from Tanzania. Afebxha was waiting for us by changing the number of employees in the contract. It was only after our intervention that she confessed to guilty and we received a compensation. The guide himself gave me that this job did not suit him and we were so tired with each other these few days.

the land of tips

2 / 5 2 /5
5 / 5 3 / 5 4 / 5 2 / 5

The wildlife was the best we have had from this country. Italy is knew in the world for sly people but tanzanian were worst than us. I've never knew something similar. The land of tips, the land of "surprises". I am really sad because i think that this will kill the tourism there. Last but not least, you make fool prices for all about tourism. In the rest of the world we are not so riches as you think. For the most of us, the 50$ that you ask like chips are a day of work!!!!!!
P.s. the weather was good, the foid was good, the accomodation not so bad, but when i think about my trip, FOR YOUR FAULT, i think about you CRAFTINESS for first.

Beautyful senic and an impressiv wildlife. Kilimanjaro is a memorable experience. I am very exited.

2 / 5 2 /5
5 / 5 4 / 5 4 / 5 3 / 5
The wildlife was really exiting. I saw many animals in the nature. I also climbed the Kilimanjaro. This was one of my best experiences I ever did so far. It is really impressive and also a real test for your body and mental skill. I really suggest to you to do this.
On the other hand I realised that you as a Tourist are just enough to pay a lot of money for a safari and not to get really the value for this. I booked with openafricasafari.com and the Price was much to much for this i got. In the same group were 6 other people who paid around 600 dollars for a 3 days safari. (I was booked on a group with maximum of 6 people and I was the 7th person!). The first 2 days was great. The second was so so. But my last day was worthless. A nature walk on the road. Walking straigt to a lake and than the same way back. How boring. Really not an experience. They sold me a nature walk!!!! They promised me to visit a School an a Hospital. We did not. I got some explanation about how bananas grow
Read more and so on. But a normal Person knows this already. The guide came to late in morning and was very surprised that I could walk for 3 hours and I did not call for a taxi, which, of course I would have to pay for it. (all the stupid Tourist are just rich and pay all the time!) Furthermore I had to tell the guide what we gonna visit. Otherwise we would have been back to the Hotel very early. I really paid around 200 dollars to much for this trip. I would not book whith this agency again.
The 3. day. The other 6 persons booked only 3 days. So the guide wanted to leave the game park at mid day. But I booked a full day in this game reserve. Even the others ha in there itinery that they would stay until 3 o'clock. Finally the guide turned around an we continued the game drive. But the day was not good anymore.

It is a shame to treat Tourist like this. Tansania is just a nice country and I met so many good guides on my 2 month journey trough south africa.
I was travelling for 8 weeks with other different tour guides (south africa, Namibia, Botswana and Tansania)and it always was a very good experience. Only the safari with openafricasafari fucked up. I asked for same money back, but,,,,,

Truly wonderful and amazing with easy access to abundant and diverse wildlife

3 / 5 3 /5
5 / 5 5 / 5 5 / 5 5 / 5

The people, culture and wildlife is an amazing experience I recommend.
Unfortunately we had an unethical and neglectful tour operator "All Wheels Experience ' which cause delays and missed experiences we had paid for.

Good experience and destination for wildlife, but you need to be patient and negotiate a lot prices are over for all activities and accommodation vs the services qualities.

I was quite dissapointed of Arusha. The city is a transient hotspot and not at all safe or even nice. Its the gateway to Kilimanjaro and Safaris. The food is really bland and not so good.

Scenic and unique

3 / 5 3 /5
3 / 5 2 / 5 4 / 5 0 / 5

Coming from western culture, Tanzania was definitely a destination unbeknownst to me. First and foremost, the people that I came across were ever so friendly, seemed relaxed and calm and eager to help. They didn’t seem to have “an agenda” which is so common in western culture. Akuna Matata isn’t just a slogan - it’s their way of life! The highlight of my trip was a visit to a local school in Zanzibar in which I got to experience some of the educational culture. It was truly fascinating! Another highlight was the snorkeling experience nearby Mneba Island.
My tour operator - Plex Africa Safari - was very professional, accommodating and knowledgeable.
I would go back any time to experience Tanzania anytime!
