Perfect Day Trip with Excellent Service! I had a fantastic time at Chemka Hot Springs with African Polecat Safaris. Our guide, Zara, was wonderful! She was incredibly helpful and provided us with interesting information about the area. The springs were beautiful, and the water was so refreshing. The entire trip was well-organized, and the service from African Polecat Safaris was excellent. They made sure we had a comfortable and enjoyable experience. I couldn't have asked for a better day trip! - Brian, SpainShow more

We enjoyed wonderful days with our driver who drove us wherever we wanted and showed us the best places in the Serengeti, the Tarangire and Ngorongoro. We had a lot of fun from the very beginning and enjoyed every second with him since he is extremely knowledgeable and can handle the car in every terrain. Finally, we managed to see the big five in a few days, however, we enjoyed the entire wildlife and the fabulous landscape. We stayed in nice lodges and also in a campsite where I have to admit that I preferred the campsite with the sound of the animals during the night which were always close to our tent - the hyaena killed by a lion at 4 p.m. in front of a tent next to us or the buffalos surrounding our tent overnight.Show more

Really good experience! Safari northern Tanzania with African Polecat Safaris We did a 4 day safari with the wonderful guide The hotels were we stayed were nice, only remark would be that the food was almost always the same, and not specifically typical African (noodles and vegetables, chicken and beef etc.). the hotel was nice but the tour was very good. I believe that our safari experience completely depended on the professionalism of our guide . He knows everything about the area, was very keen on sharing it with us, and showed us the most amazing places. Besides that, he respects the parks and animals. We had great conversations with him about the wildlife and current status of the parks. We asked him a lot of questions, questions he must have had 100 times, and he responded to them as it was the first time he was asked this. Great guy with a great heart, beautiful place!Show more

  Hi James, it is ok for me. I don't want to upgrade Tarangire. I was just thinking in Serengueti.
