点评:We had planned for our trip to Africa for a year. First stop was Rwanda to see the Mountain Gorillas and then to Tanzania for a visit to Serval Wildlife Lodge, safaris in Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Central Serengeti, and Northern Serengeti, and finally Zanzibar.
Every step of the planning process with Grace our Tour Coordinator for Serengeti Sons was fantastic. She is thorough, very knowledgeable, and quick to follow up on any questions or concerns we may have had and the accommodations she put together were out of this world. We could not have made this trip without her.
One first stop was Rwanda, where our driver, Fabrice, was fantastic. He truly made this portion of our trip enjoyable, relaxing and fun. He is very easy going, professional and definitely had our interests at heart to ensure we had a successful visit.
Next, we travelled to Tanzania, where we were met by Shabani, who was to be our driver and guide to all things in Tanzania during our 11-day tour. Shabani was amazing and so knowledgeable about the wildlife we saw. He is passionate about the animals and has an almost superhuman eye for finding and identifying animals and birds in the wild. Shabani was so good in fact that, we believe he can see better than any binocular. With his expertise and instincts, we were able to see the Big Five at least twice during our time with him, plus so much more. Shabani regularly went out of his way to help make our trip a success. In one instance Shabani eagerly helped us in Arusha; taking us to a number of shops to find a new travel adapter for our electronics and during our drive between National Parks, he managed to find us a particular painting of a Leopard in a Sausage tree that we had been talking about.
Then onto Zanzibar, where we stayed at the Blue Bay Beach Resort, located on the eastern side of the island. This resort was the perfect place to unwind after two weeks on the road. Here again, Grace did an outstanding job organizing a driver (Amour) and our guide (Nasir) for us during our stay. She provided them with explicit instructions regarding our needs upon arrival and checked in to make sure all was going as planned. We cannot say enough about Amour and Nasir, they were both so friendly, accommodating and attentive to our needs.
Again, none of this would have been possible without the help, patience, and guidance of Grace. She regularly checked in with us during our tour ensuring we were looked after and even took the time to drop by our hotel in Arusha on arrival to make sure we had everything we needed. Thank you all so much for your time and energy. We were definitely well looked after. Each one of you made our trip so memorable.
We highly recommend using Serengeti Sons
翻译:我们为这次非洲之旅做了整整一年的规划。第一站是卢旺达,去观赏山地大猩猩;随后前往坦桑尼亚,参观塞瓦尔野生动物保护区,还在塔兰吉雷国家公园、恩戈罗恩戈罗火山口、塞伦盖蒂中部及北部地区进行了野生动物观赏之旅,最后抵达桑给巴尔岛。
在整个行程规划过程中,我们的塞伦盖蒂之子旅行社协调员格蕾丝表现得极为出色。她做事细致入微,且拥有极为丰富的专业知识。她会迅速回复我们提出的任何问题或疑虑,而她为我们安排的住宿也堪称一流。没有她,我们根本无法完成这次旅行。
我们的第一站是卢旺达,那里的司机法布里斯表现得极为出色。他切实让我们旅途的这一段变得愉快、轻松又充满乐趣。他为人随和、专业敬业,始终把我们的利益放在首位,确保我们此行圆满顺利。
随后,我们前往坦桑尼亚,在那里迎接我们的是沙巴尼。他是我们11天坦桑尼亚之旅中的司机兼向导。沙巴尼表现得极为出色,对于我们所看到的野生动物也了如指掌。他热爱动物,拥有近乎超人般的能力,能在野外迅速发现并辨认出各种动物和鸟类。事实上,沙巴尼的观察力实在太强了,我们认为他的视力甚至胜过任何双筒望远镜。凭借他的专业素养与敏锐直觉,我们在与他同行的日子里至少两次看到了“非洲五霸”,还见识到了众多其他野生动物。沙巴尼总是不遗余力地帮助我们让行程顺利进行。有一次,他在阿鲁沙热情地为我们提供帮助:带我们去多家商店,帮我们为电子设备购买新的旅行用电源适配器;而在我们驾车游览各个国家公园时,他又设法为我们找到了我们曾提及过的、一幅描绘着花斑豹站在香肠树下的画作。
随后我们前往桑给巴尔岛,下榻于位于岛东侧的蓝湾海滩度假村。这家度假村正是我们在连续两周的旅途之后放松身心的绝佳去处。在这里,Grace再次出色地为我们安排了司机(Amour)以及导游(Nasir)。她在我们抵达前便向他们详细说明了我们的需求,之后还特意联系确认一切是否按计划进行。Amour和Nasir真的太好了——他们既友善又体贴,还时刻留意着我们的需要。
同样,如果没有他们的帮助,这一切都不可能实现。耐心与恩典的指引。在我们旅行期间,她时常与我们联系,确保我们得到妥善照料;甚至在我们抵达阿鲁沙后,她还亲自到我们的酒店探望,确认我们所需的一切都准备齐全。非常感谢你们付出的时间与精力。我们确实得到了无微不至的照顾。你们每一个人让我们的旅程变得无比难忘。
我们极力推荐选择Serengeti Sons来安排行程。
