VerifiedMichael B2024-08-14Best Safari- Guide Ever ! Wir, 2 befreundete Pärchen, waren im Mai 2024 mit "Rama" (Ramadan) 3 Tage auf Safari. Jeweils einen ganzen Tag im Tarangire Nationalpark, im Ngorongoo Krater und im Lake-Manyara-Nationalpark. Rama hat sich für uns als echter Glücksfall erwiesen, denn entgegen der Ankündigung "spricht gutes Englisch", spricht Rama neben fließend Englisch auch sehr gutes Deutsch, welches er sich autodidaktisch (mit Hilfe von YouTube und ähnlichem) angeeignet hat. Dies hat uns sehr viel "Übersetzungsstress" erspart, denn nicht alle unserer Gruppe sprechen Englisch. Rama nimmt seinen Job wirklich ernst und schafft es, die Safari so angenehm wie irgend möglich zu gestalten. Er kennt die Tierwelt sehr gut und hat auch für die seltesten Vogelarten sämtliche deutsche Namen parat - Hochachtung! Er nimmt Rücksicht auf persönliche Belange und erfüllt auch alle machbaren Wünsche. Nach (angemessener) anfänglicher Zurückhaltung kam dann auch der Spaß nicht zu kurz, Witze wurde gerissen und auch mal Blödsinn gemacht. Er ist, trotz der manchmal absolut kaotischen Verkehrsverhälnisse, ein sehr vorsichtiger und vorausschauernder Fahrer, so dass wir uns bei Ihm immer sehr sicher gefühlt haben. Jeder Park hat seine Besonderheiten, unterscheidet sich von den anderen und ist absolut sehenswert. Unser klarer Favorit ist aber der Ngorngoro Krater - hier haben wir die meisten Tiere gesehen und die eindruckvollsten Erlebnisse gehabt.Auch eher seltene Tiere, wie zum Beispiel eine Seval- Katze, waren hier anzutreffen. An dieser Stelle möchten wir uns nochmals bei Rama für einfach "ALLES" herzlichst bedanken.VerifiedSherynb2024-06-30A million thank you to Rama and Kimomwe adventures! My husband and I went for a safari over 3 nights/days. Before embarking on this adventure we've been told one thing: your guide alone can make or break your experience. We know today we couldn't have been luckier. A careful driver, Rama is an absolute champion and has a wealth of knowledge. We got to see the big 5 and many more, including a wide variety of bird species. We truly can't wait to go back and explore further the beautiful parks of Tanzania. Thank you to everyone involved in making this an unforgettable experience. Encounters include: Lions, lionesses, cheetah and cubs, leopard, elephants, giraffes, mongoose, baboons, wildebeest (white beard, blue & white tailed), zebras, topi, hartebeest, gazelles (grand & thompson), hyenas, jackals, crocodiles, hippos, rhinos, serval cat, white head cobra, impalas, tortoises, wild hogs, velvet monkeys, dik-dik, ostriches and at least 25 variety of birds Rama was able to identify.VerifiedMartin K2024-05-15Unique experience We spent 4 days in May 2024 with Penda and Rama in Tarangire NP, Ngorongoro NP and the Serengeti. Everything was super organized from the first to the last second. Penda deserves special mention for his excellent driving performance in difficult weather conditions. Many thanks to Rama who explained everything to us in German in great detail. So everything was great... fantastic impressions and impressive memoriesVerifiedNadiia s2024-02-02two happy monkeys in naked nature Thanks, Frederick!!!.. We had not only 2 days safari (NgoroNgoro and Tarangiri)... It was awesome adventure of happiness, back to childhood, discovery naked nature, fun and jokes... Full of emotions... Drifting in dirty, rain and rainbow... Warm sunshine ☀️... This memories will be with us forever ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️VerifiedShahbaaz K2023-07-16Couldn’t have chosen better I spent 2 days with Kim. Day 1 Ndoro falls and day 2 Tarangire Safari. I was picked up promptly from my hotel on both days. The vehicles used were clean and comfortable. All the staff the drivers and especially Kim were phenomenal at their jobs and kept us smiling and laughing all day. Dior went out of his way and made sure that even on a 1 day safari trip our hearts were filled by the sight of lions which is very very rare. Did not expect to see them on a day trip. They were teaching us songs the whole way and I couldn’t have chosen a better tour operator for my activities. He took us to see the Masai tribe and experienced the traditional and native ways of the tribe. I have genuinely built a friendship with Kim and he goes above and beyond his responsibilities to ensure his clients are happy.VerifiedZam D2023-07-12Unforgettable experience Thank you for giving us a wonderful experience that will last forever.
