Be prepared for the slower pace of life. The Swahili phrase “pole pole” meaning slowly, slowly is very appropriate. A meal may take more than an hour to arrive but it will be fresh. (more)Martin Bigg

Memorable parts? Safari in Tanzania and hot air balloon. Tips? Ensure lodges do and local partners do have sustainable practices in place before you go (employee wages, waste management, etc) Local benefits? Partially. Some lodges were more aware than others of use of plastic, water conservation, etc. Our Tanzania operator was much more sophisticated in its environmental practices than our Uganda experience, where it was close to null. In Uganda, neither the lodge nor the... (more)Camila Wills

Memorable parts? Spending time with the mountain gorillas in Bwindi national park. Truly a once in a lifetime experience being up close and personal with a remarkable primate. Tips?

Memorable parts? I really liked the wildlife diversity that Tanzania Parks can offer. Especially in some areas, it was great to be able to be so close to the wild animals. Tips? I would have spent more time in Serengeti National Park, because of the vast area I believe I didn’t take the most of it…I stayed just one night. I would reccomend at least one night tented camp experience. Local benefits? Benefits to local people – Yes. Most of the camps use locals as employees. Reduced... (more)Luis Boavida

Memorable parts? The whole vacation was memorable but the icing on the cake was Zanzibar Tips? Ensure you have good walking shoes, all your bathing gear then enjoy every location you can. Local benefits? There is now a lot of tourism in Zanzibar, from when I last visited 20 years ago, I believe that they do benefit from tourism, and there is a tax that is now taken from tourist and i would like to think that the government use this tax effectively to help the local communities...
