Highly Recommended Company - From the time I read the TripAdvisor review contacted SED, my experience was flawless. I wanted to go into Olduvai Gorge and experience the cradle of humanity after volunteer work in Ipalamwa, Tanzania. I planned to be alone, so I wanted competent and reliable service. SED responded enthusiastically and assisted with every element of my planning. As it turned out, a team mate joined me, and SED accommodated her last-minute needs. We had a perfect day. Our guide was patient, knowledgeable and light-hearted, as well as a great driver. At Olduvai Gorge, we had a Massai guide to answer our questions about the Leaky expeditions. On to Shifting Sands, the two men indulged our desire to meditate at the sand dune. They were wonderful. The packed lunch was delicious and plentiful! We viewed Ngorongoro Crater on the way out of the national park and photographed wildlife along the way. I had dreamed of a day like we had, but didn't dare to expect it. I'm so grateful to SED and their wonderful staff!

Visit to the Museum only - We did not take part in the tour. We simply went to the museum, which has recently been renovated. It is an information stop for an hour and well worth a visit.
