Amazing day trip - Wow what a day! Everything was very well organised from the start to the return back to the hotel. Our tour guide Yohana was amazing! His knowledge of the animals and the land was fantastic! The jeeps are well designed so everyone has a great view. Simply a must do trip if you are visiting Zanzibar

Excellent organisation and great adventure - My son and I (9 years old) went together for a 1 day safari from Zanzibar. It was a great adventure. Everything is well organized (flight, cars, photos, beverages in cars). The crew (drivers and photographer) are really experienced. We managed to see all the animals that we could see (giraffe, elephants, zebras, lions, buffalo, boar and hippo). On top of that our guide was giving interesting talks all the time about the park and wildlife.

Fine, but... - The French-speaking guide is a real plus, it has provided a lot of explanations, which is very pleasant. During the day, we had the chance to see many animals: zebras, giraffes, lionesses, elephants... I think for a full-day Safari it’s good but there are more beautiful landscapes in other parks. I was shocked by the hippo pool which offers them little space and is not natural. And lunch is not qualitative.

Bad experience - I'm still waiting for them... I waited for them 1h30, they didn't pick me up and without any explanation. I expected at least one message...
