Jambo Gastro. Thank you for a fantastic safari. I enjoyed every minute of it. The beautiful scenery, the animals and you telling me about the animals and answering my many, many questions 🙏 I also enjoyed our evening talks about the similarities and differences between our cultures ☺️ Take care and if you come to Copenhagen give me a call and I’ll show you my city.

Simply Wildcandle Safaris!

After my 9-day Safari to Selous, Mikumi, Ruaha and Udzungwa I can only recommend this company. Owner Gasto is friendly and professional and open to accommodate guests‘ wishes in route. All the bookings worked flawlessly and the booked accommodation was very nice. Our driver guide was also very engaged and a very good driver as well as guide. As for animal sightings, big four in Ruaha (incl. 2 leopards) and even cheetah in Ruaha and wild dogs in Selous! It was a great and fun adventurous safari. Thank you and Asante sana!

Best Cruise ever!

We’re sorry that we can only give this travel agency 5 stars — we’d have preferred 10 stars or more! What an awesome trip!
