A Taste of Tanzania's Lesser-Known Parks
Mark R. · UK · 22 Sep 2025

The 4 Days Burigi-Chato and Ibanda-Kyerwa Safari offered a unique perspective on Tanzanian wildlife. It was great to experience parks that are less crowded than the main circuits. We saw good game, including some rare antelope species, and the scenery was beautiful. The logistics were handled well, and our guide was competent, though perhaps could have shared a bit more historical context. It's a solid option for those seeking a more off-the-beaten-path adventure.

A Touching Visit to Prison Island
Maria S. · Argentina · 13 Nov 2025

The 1 Day Prison Island tour offered a fascinating mix of history and natural beauty. Seeing the giant tortoises was incredible, and the old prison ruins have a poignant story. We enjoyed the walk around the island and the chance to snorkel in the clear waters nearby. It's a popular spot, so it can get busy, but our guide managed it well. A good half-day or full-day excursion depending on how much time you want to spend relaxing on the beach. We are planning our next visit for 2026.
