“Pictures speak louder than words…” says Hanno, who went on a wonderful safari in northern Tanzania with his son Felix; Arusha, Lake Manyara National Park, Karatu and Serengeti. Check out some of his beautiful photos here and judge for yourself.
We love active holidays and like a bit of adventure. When we understood that you could also book a self-drive safari through Explore Tanzania – without a guide and without someone to arrange the food for you – we quickly agreed that we had to do that. Although the latter was still a thing. I […]
Dear Marjolein and Paul, I think it was pretty obvious iced that I attached great importance to this journey, which was to become and has become a reflection of the warm bond I have with my sons. The seed of our interest in the African wilderness and its wildlife was planted when we were invited […]
Thanks to your perfectly arranged, but not cheap (together $ 230), Covid test, we didn’t have any corona problem during our vacation. All Tanzanians were very happy with our appearance. Guide George had not seen the Serengeti since February and was happy with this ending to the long idleness. He spoiled us with game drives […]
This is part 2 of the extensive report of Kieke and Eef’s safari in corona time. See also part 1. Tanzania, Serengeti September 18, 2020 We have to get up bizar early and it is still pitch dark outside when we set out. Here and there we see eyes light up on the savannah in […]

Tanzania or East Africa may seem like a crazy choice, but for us a well-considered choice. To be clear, we are not going to […]
After weeks of deliberation, we decided to go on safari in August. From the landing at Kilimanjaro Arport where the plane was “blessed” with water by the fire brigade (it was the first KLM flight since the covid outbreak) and we were welcomed by dancing Maasai on disembarkation to passport control leaving the country – […]
Hello Marjolein! We have been able to make a wonderful journey. We finally let Selous pass – the reports about the accumulated wetness and blubber were too dramatic to want to go there self-driving. We “did” Mikumi and Ruaha the first half of the trip. We saw an incredible amount and variety of game, plus […]
Dear Marjolijn, The safari in Tanzania was beautiful. Thanks for the organisation! You’ll receive compliments from our guide Allan for the travel schedule. He found the structure of the visits to the parks with Serengeti at the end very well chosen. Zanzibar was very nice too. Staying overnight at Stone Town Café was perfect for […]
