Your safari will start in the morning between 8.30 and 9.30. Unless agreed otherwise. We will give you the oppertunity to buy some water and some fruits if you like. Don't forget to take toilet paper with you. After finalizing the last details we can start the safari. In our safari mini busses with open top roof we don't take more then 6 people for camping safari and for lodge safari not more then seven. Unless we have no other choice to take 7 pax.If you have booked a safari and you are alone or with two people, we might share the trip with other clients of other agencies. This is because it is quite imposible to offer a safari to 2 people private based for the same price. With an addional cost we can offer you a private safari for 2 people and without extra cost for 4 or more people.
 
Our tents are spacy, 3 pax tent which comfort 2 or 3 people. At several parks we also use the permanent campsites with beds if available. There are simply facilities at the campsites, some with hot showers, some with only cold shower/wash facilities. Toilets are either African style( a hole in the ground) or they are European but in general don't expect any luxery.With the camping safaris one of our cooks is travelling with the group. Food is great, the cooks can really make incredible food on the simply facilities they have. Potatoes, spaghetti, rice, chicken, beef stew, pizza, it is all offered and you will gain weigh in a short time.

We offer you low budgetsafari whereby you pay the lowest price but you may end up by travelling in different groups. You can book "camping in style"whereby you sleep in spacy tents, have your meals in a bit luxery style, and you overnight at private campsites. You sleep at comfortable stretchers. You travel within a small group up to 6 people but garantee you that your safari will depart no matter how many people.
( with a max of 6 )

Dont forget to inform us if it is your honeymoon or if you celebrate your birthday we want to make this trip extra special for you if there is any occasion to celebrate. Honeymooners are given a complimentary dinner in either Carnivore in Nairobi or in any lodge in Tanzania while on safari. Extra attention is offered to our honeymooners.

Once you arrive in a park and time permits you will make a gamedrive, while the cook is preparing your meal. Mostly in the evenings there are campfires which is very cosy with the noises of wild animals in the background. You don't need to be scared, wildlife guards and strong Masai Warriors with weapons( Rungu's) are keeping the animals away from your tent. Sure they can come closed and you will even hear them grazing next to your tent, but the guards will always chase them if they need to. If you need to go for a call though in the night be alert and call the guard first. If you cant see him ask someone else to walk with you but be carefull. 

We provide you with a soft small matress so if you have any problem with your back either bring your own matress or ask for another matress. A sleepingbag is not provided unless you want to hire one. During our long trip we use also a budgethotel to make sure you ress a bit better and use the shower to refresh yourself. Before you leave for a  gamedrive you can wash your clothes and hang them to find them dry when you return( unless it is raining) you can buy  Omo ( washing powder or soap )everywhere. It is recommended to take wet tissues with you for cleaning the dirt and dust of your hands during the trips.If you book a lodge safari you will overnight in luxery lodges, located in the parks. Meals are also taken in the lodges. If we are en route we will take the picknick lunch from the lodges with us. In Tanzania all safaris are done with a landrover. Transfers to Tanzania are with a comfortable shuttle bus. More about Tanzania safaris you will find on the Tanzania page.

we meet in Kenya!
