Safari park Mikumi August 2023 - Unique and fantastic experience!!! I definitely recommend doing it once in your life!!!! We saw lions, zebras, giraffes, elephants, crocodiles and much more…. Seeing an elephant 1 m away from you or a lion passing next to your Jeep is an emotion indescribable in words!!!

Best experience ever in Mikumi - We booked our trip to Zanzibar and didnt consider to go for a Safari at the beginning. At some point we tried to look for a short safari trip to be done in maximum 3 days and we found Bohobe Travel which organised our trip in a moment. So a couple of days after we took a ferry to Dar es Salaam and the agency booked for us the pick up to go to Mikumi park by car with a fantastic driver (Jackson). He drove through the heart of Tanzania and brought us to our lodge in Mikumi, an emotional journey through many african villages. The morning after we started our adventure in the park with the game drive, a journey of almost 7 hours and we were able to see lions, zebras, elephants, gnus, birds, giraffes ecc ecc, a super emotional drive, the best experience ever in our lives. We slept a second night in our lodge, a fantastic place in the middle of the nature surrounded by african vibes and an amazing atmosphere. The morning after we started our journey back to Dar es Salaam. I highly recommend Bohobe travel if you wish to live a unique experience and an unforgettable trip in the heart of Africa. Thanks Bohobe we will be back!! Dominga & Antonio

We spotted lions twice, thanks to the experience of the guide, but also hippos, elephants, giraffes, zebras, warthogs and buffaloes. Everything was perfect!

N/A... - N/A Complete dissatisfaction, 😥 disappointing . Called 24 hours before to confirm . Gave my cell number and confirmed my location to no available. Woke up early to get ready for 7am pick up, I called at 6:40 am since i did hear the day before ( since it was a Sunday , I thought the silence was appropriate!!!!).After several attempts, i got the owner who told me the driver is on his way . An hour late I called him back he told me the driver is stuck in traffic , I found out later that it was a lie ! I called again an hour and a half later to be told by the owner this time ( after all this waiting in the lobby and peeking out for a car arrival ) that I have to pay again and in cash if I still want to go to the park!!!). Eventhough, I explained that i have a confirmation number + vouchers + proof of payments. It was a wall , the owner said that they have a problem with the TripAdvisor website ( where I bought the Tours among others) and sometimes he has to wait for the end of the month for payments!!! Since It was my dad bday the day of the tour and that was my promised gift to my dad , I was in a bind so I accepted to pay again in hope to save my face. Two hours and a half and false promises passed , so I decided to buy a tours with the help of the hotel concierge. The driver arrived 3 hours late and he witnessed me paying the other agent from the new tour operator. When I told him , he was way way very late .He explained to me that his boss ( the owner, woke him and told him to pick me up ( that's what i explained earlier that the traffic jam was not the only explanation to the lies I was told every Hour or half . Basically it was a total shame , he made me loose a day of precise and time sensitive planned vacation.
