Exuberanting - I don’t have the nouns or verbs to describe this amazing experience. Just DO IT! Our guide Nwyni made sure we had the safari adventure we dreamed of. Seeing so many beautiful animals in their natural habitat was breathtaking.

Amazing scenery and loads of wildlife. - We all agreed this was the best day of our holiday. We didn’t know what to expect because it was only a day safari, but right from the start we saw giraffes, zebras, monkeys, elephants, hippos, impala and even a pair of lions. We were in an open sided jeep that sat six people so we all had a good view and our driver was brilliant at positioning the jeep so we could see the animals and Fabien, our guide, was lovely and very knowledgeable. To be honest it would have been a lovely day just looking at the scenery even if we hadn’t seen so many animals.

Thoughtful, Informative, and Fun Safari - I can highly recommend this Selous Safari and the Beach & Safari Holidays company for the following reasons: 1) There was actually a problem with the included transportation, and I ended up arriving late to the airport for departure. However, the true nature of an individual or company shows during a challenge, and I can say that Agent Jonathan and the Beach and Safari company proved to be people of their word and were willing to do all that was needed to make sure that I did not miss the safari with minimal effect on the other attendees. Excellent and professional overall customer service; 2) The safari at the Selous National Park was outstanding. I ended up in a group of a total of six people, and Mahmoud was our guide. Mahmoud was smart, attentive, and funny. He informed us with information about the animals we saw, and he and the other guides did all they could to make sure we saw many animals as possible, including that we got to see the "big five" animals in the Park. Mahmoud prepared and provided us with a lovely coffee/breakfast break which was helpful as you have to leave early in the morning, and then a lovely lunch, all meals in a lovely picnic presentation. Then when we flew back to Zanzibar, our agent was there with information and arrangements made for transportation back to our hotels; and 3) If you have limited time in Zanzibar and are debating on whether doing a safari is feasible, this is the perfect solution. The flight to the reserve is approximately 30 minutes each way, and while you leave early in the morning, you return at a reasonable hour, so you will have plenty of time to relax and reflect on a great day before finishing your day. The day is enjoyable. Just be prepared to enjoy the ride, be patient and appreciate the beautiful scenery and animals, and enjoy the time with your fellow travelers. Highly recommend.

Safari Tanzania - G4 and Herman were very friendly and knowledgeable they made the experience very enjoyable. I would recommend this wonderful experience to family and friends. We saw 4 of the big 5 (only 4 at this safari). This experience we will be talking about for years to come. We were satisfied from being to end. The safari was worth it! Enjoyed the company of others couples. The lunch was a pleasant surprise. A most see no complaints!

Great experience - Had so much fun with my guides who showed me various animals. Not all are guaranteed to spot but they did a great job looking and driving close so we can take pictures. They also explained a lot about the animals. The flight was short and safe. Everything went well.

Selous game reserve - Everything ran perfectly on time, everything taken care of in one booking was so easy, no hidden costs like a lot of other tours, our guide Chas did a great job, careful driving through the park, made sure we saw everything possible, the team worked hard to find a lion which made our day. Lunch out in the open park was great,

Everything else was great - Thank you for the experience. However I need to mention the flight going and coming. There was no AC on the flight which is very dangerous. People can suffer a heat stroke if this is not addressed. That was totally unacceptable.
