Galloping Safaris - Day Tours的点评
点评:What was meant to be a family trip for my mum’s 70th birthday in 2020 got COVID delayed until 2023, but we finally made it!
We did 9 days / 8 nights covering Lake Manyara, Central Serengeti, Northern Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. We were so luck as saw all of the big 5, lion pride with cubs are cute followed very closely by 2 cheetahs brothers rolling around in the grass just being big cats.
What could have been a dampener on the whole trip, my mum’s luggage got lost/delayed by KLM, got turned around by the team at Galloping Safaris, they got into Arusha to pick up supplies before heading out in safari, and then kept chased up with the airline and managed to get her luggage contain some medication into an airfield at Lake Manyara the day later – Amazing what an awesome service!
Our guide Lawrence Mosha was something else to behold – he is knowledgeable, passionate about the animals, environment and culture. His sharp eyes meant we saw everything we had wished for and so much more.
He was a pleasure to be around and made the trip even more special. He was so kind to my mum, helping her in and out the 4x4, making sure he used her phone and his binoculars to get her some spectacular photos – a true gentlemen. Reading the reviews again after the trip its clear Galloping know how to pick their guides perfectly.
We also should mention the accommodation and their staff were all fantastic and the most friendly, welcoming people you could hope to meet. Food was great, and the packed lunches were always good – we were never hungry! Having a picnic lunch under an acacia tree in the middle of the Serengeti with wildebeest just wandering around was a highlight that make our day awesome and having a feel like we own the whole Serengeti on our own.
We stayed at Lake Duluti Lodge, Escarpment Luxury Lodge Lake Manyara, Kirimu Camp Central Serengeti, Nimali Mara Camp Northern Serengeti and Lions Paw Camp Ngorongoro.
Many, many thanks to Walter for all the planning and being so accommodating with the COVID delay and agree to adjust and keep some rates that was relief for us and just as many thanks to Lawrence for being a truly incredible guide.
We are coming back and will be booking with Galloping again no doubt of that!
翻译:原定于 2020 年为我妈妈 70 岁生日进行一次家庭旅行,但由于新冠疫情而推迟到了 2023 年,但我们终于如愿以偿了!
我们花了9天8夜,游览了曼雅拉湖、塞伦盖蒂中部、塞伦盖蒂北部和恩戈罗恩戈罗火山口。我们很幸运,看到了所有的 5 只大狮子,带着幼崽的狮群非常可爱,紧随其后的是 2 只猎豹兄弟,它们在草地上打滚,就像大猫一样。
整个旅程可能会很糟糕,我妈妈的行李被荷航丢失/延误,被 Galloping Safaris 的团队调转,他们在出发前前往阿鲁沙取补给品,然后一直被追赶第二天,她与航空公司联系,并设法将装有一些药物的行李运送到曼雅拉湖的机场 - 令人惊叹的是,服务真是太棒了!
我们的导游劳伦斯·莫沙(Lawrence Mosha)是另外一个值得一看的人——他知识渊博,对动物、环境和文化充满热情。他锐利的眼睛意味着我们看到了我们想要的一切,甚至更多。
他很高兴能和他在一起,让这次旅行变得更加特别。他对我妈妈非常友善,帮助她进出四驱车,确保他使用她的手机和双筒望远镜为她拍一些精彩的照片——一位真正的绅士。旅行后再次阅读评论,很明显 Galloping 知道如何完美地选择他们的导游。
我们还应该提到这里的住宿和他们的工作人员都很棒,是您希望遇到的最友好、最热情的人。食物很棒,外带午餐也很美味——我们从来不饿!在塞伦盖蒂中部的一棵金合欢树下享用野餐午餐,牛羚在周围闲逛,这是一个亮点,让我们的一天变得很棒,感觉就像我们自己拥有整个塞伦盖蒂。
我们住在杜鲁蒂湖旅馆、曼雅拉湖悬崖豪华旅馆、塞伦盖蒂中央基里姆营地、北塞伦盖蒂尼玛利马拉营地和恩戈罗恩戈罗狮爪营地。
非常非常感谢沃尔特(Walter)的所有计划以及对新冠疫情延误的包容,并同意调整和保留一些费率,这对我们来说是一种宽慰,同样感谢劳伦斯(Lawrence)作为一位真正令人难以置信的导游。
毫无疑问,我们会回来并再次与 Galloping 预订!
