"The trip was very well thought out. We were all first-time travelers to Tanzania and new to safaris, and the way the trip was organized meant that we were eased into the safari experience in a very comfortable way. We dipped our toes in at our first location, and the trip ended with a bang in a beautiful rustic camp. Issaya, our first guide, really made the trip amazing - he was so knowledgeable and we had total trust in him. "

"All of the camps were clean, the food was incredible all week, and we always felt very safe. The safari providers were so knowledgeable: both guides were excellent in their knowledge of the animals, birds, plants, landscapes and local culture. Their ability to find animals in the bush was almost unbelievable. This was our first safari, and the trip exceeded all of our expectations - there was at least one memorable moment every single day."

"Jamie listened carefully to our wishes and put together an itinerary. She was consistently responsive during the booking, prior to departure and during the holiday. It was the family adventure of a lifetime. We had an amazing trip which exceeded expectations, and we will book through Original Travel again."

At the risk of sounding a little, well, snooty, some safari lodges' insistence on round table collective dining - while admirable in principle - can become a little jading after a while. The solution? Go somewhere where you have the whole place to yourselves, hire a private lodge.

While that might seem a little extravagant if you're travelling a deux, if you're travelling as a family or group of friends then this could well be an option worth considering. We know private safari lodges and beachfront villas across Tanzania where you can do what you want, when you want, and enjoy the best this very special country has to offer from the comfort of your fully catered and staffed residence. Sounds pretty perfect? We think so.
