Wonderful day, highly recommended
I had a spare day in Arusha and arranged with Florence a one day tour. Warren was the driver and wildlife expert. I had the best day; both guides were friendly and helpful and I saw loads of wildlife, much of which I wouldn’t have seen for myself in the foliage. I can’t recommend this tour highly enough, wonderful.
Response from the operator: Thanks for this wonderful review.
