“I just wanted you to know that we had a fantastic trip, in large part because Simon was such an amazing guide. Loma and Watuni were also great, and made the camping portions of our trip very special. Thanks to you and your staff for all of your work on our trip.”

“We spent about half of the 20-day trip in the remote wilderness where we saw no other tourists: 3 days with the hunter-gatherer Hadza tribe hunting, digging and eating roots, collecting honey, making arrows and singing. We now have a family saying: ‘would the Hadza worry about that?’ … with the answer always being ‘NO’. The guides make the difference and our guy Douglas was the best. He is a world-class bird expert and knows over 1,000 birds by sight, sound or silhouette.”

“Douglas was a superb guide: a great person and an excellent birder. We saw 305 species of birds! And when you are looking for birds you tend to see everything else, so of course we saw all the expected mammals and even some rare ones, like Serval Cat and Caracal. Visiting the Iraqw and Hadza were definitely high points of the trip. Finally, I commend you for all your efforts on behalf of the Hadza and thank you for the privilege of visiting with them.”

“We were delighted with Douglas as a guide; he was perfect. His knowledge of local history and politics, the Tanzanian environment overall, birds in particular but other aspects of natural history as well, is outstanding. The high point of our trip was our day with the Hadza. Our favorite camp, including the fancy tented ones, was the Yaeda Valley one.”

“We all had such a terrific experience with Dorobo. Thanks for treating us to the joy of going on safari with Daudi; he's a remarkable man, and we feel privileged to have had time with him. The wonderful time with the Hadza was the highlight of our trip, and the gracious hosting of the mobile campsite was dialed in very nicely. We hope someday to come back.”

“Special thanks to Mika and Joshua for being such great guides on our walking safari. Their resourcefulness, care and knowledge of the flora and fauna made it such a fantastic experience. We always felt safe, except for the momentary elephant charge, which just provided some additional story-telling material, yet were able to experience the bush unlike a drive-around safari. Any future trips to Tanzania by us or friends will include Dorobo.”

“I had very high expectations for this trip, as it's one I've wanted to do for a long time. Our experience surpassed my expectations. Our time with the Hadza people was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that taught us a lot and confirmed our respect for their culture. Simon could not have been a better guide: kind, knowledgeable, patient and easy-going.”

“I am certain that I speak for our entire group when I tell you that Killerai was the best guide anyone could ever imagine. His boundless enthusiasm was contagious. He is so full of energy, respectful, knowledgeable, patient and funny. The consensus was unanimous that Killerai was the reason our trip was so fabulous. He is a true gem.”
