Magical Experience in Selous Game - It was magical, Musa was a super guide, taking time to explain and answer all my questions! In French is really a plus. Even solo I always felt secure, everybody cared for me as a princess! The conbined expérience by car, boat and feet is really complementary to understand the different aspects of the nature. One of the best moments in my life, it was a dream, thank you for everything! Hasante sana! <3

Mussa the best guide ever - Mussa is the BEST possible guide for this excursion. He speaks extraordinary French. His knowledge of the animals and the park is an asset to have the best chance of seeing the animals in the reserve. He knows where to find them. His driving is more than perfect, despite the muddy roads and twisted tracks he knows how to handle his vehicle like no one else. His good humor will delight all his customers. After three days he becomes part of your family. And it will be very difficult for you to leave him without shedding a tear!!
