Travel Review: Africa Family Safari, Tanzania, Arusha, Wildlife & Culture, Engagement Proposal

The breathtaking beauty of each location was only matched by the wonderful people at the lodges where we stayed. The manager at the Manor House is the standard for how individuals overseeing hotels should be measured. He was kind, professional and anticipated our needs. The team at Treetops and Pioneer Camp will be remembered always. Everyone was genuinely interested in assuring we had great days no matter what were doing. Our guide for the entire trip was a rock star. An encyclopedia of animal knowledge, so well versed in how to find the best view for the animals we wanted to see.  He is in a bunch of our pictures, he was like family. We are looking at pictures taken on the trip that truly are like you see in a magazine and it's all because our guide knew where to be and when to be there. We saw every animal we wanted to see and jaw dropping events - lions in trees, fighting, mating, caring for cubs, herds and dozens of creatures we never even knew existed. Truly, so much more than what we expected and our guide made it all happen. Unbelievable!

We went to a school to drop off school supplies (okay, really soccer balls)  and I will smile every time I think of those beautiful faces and their delight. Our agent and guide made it happen, awesome.
