“Beyond our wildest dreams!”

“Our Tanzania itinerary was created with our agent and Extreme Expedition Tours.

“We couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. Our guide Emanuel was the absolute best. He made our safari dreams come true, giving us so much wonderful info, knowing every animal we saw and where to find them, and being a complete joy to be with for 10days. We had so many great conversations.

“From dawn to dusk we ventured around Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Taringire.
We saw the migration, the big 5, landscapes that seemed like a dream, and have thousands of photos and even more memories to look back on.

“From the moment David picked us up from the airport to the moment Emanuel dropped us off on our last day, we felt warmly welcomed and extremely well taken care of. Everything was on time.

“Every camp and lodge were chosen with intention and care to the environment, the people, and our wishes to have a blend of authenticity and luxury in our trip. Every meal was delicious. The truck was well appointed and comfortable and clean.
Every hope we had for this bucket list trip was exceeded 100x over. We are forever grateful.

DAY 7: on safari with Extreme Expedition Tours

On arrival at camp, around sunset, we weaved our way through huge herds of wildebeest around Kogatende. Anticipation of a crossing was high.

We set off early in the morning with a flask of coffee and some Maasai blankets to ease the morning Serengeti chill and arrived at the river - we were the first to arrive and parked a safe distance and were soon joined by a few other eager groups - excitement was soaring.

A crossing seemed imminent and we worked our way to the predicted crossing point, passing a few lionesses who also seemed to be tipped off, and spotted zebras testing the waters with thousands of wildebeest waiting for the all clear.

The herd was the other side with a clear run at multiple entry points so we parked away from the exit point along a steep cliff that the wildebeest could not use, but that gave us a great angle.

Then all hell broke loose. A calf got separated from its mother and swam against the herd - good news, one hour later we saw her mum looking and calling and was reunited safely across.

Our wonderful guests having the time of their lives.

We always go above and beyond and treated them to bush sundowners, bush lunch and an unscheduled detour to lake Ndutu to see the recent migration of flamingos.

Day 5: On safari with Extreme Expedition Tours

Today we went west in Tarangire towards Lake Burunge - more on a hunch than in great expectation, but there is always a surprise around the corner.

The night sky in the Serengeti cannot be described with words - you need to be immersed inside this black dome with the billions of scattered stars, our planets and the vast galaxies - and the Milky Way, normally a feint grey hue leaps out of the darkness.

What is the major difference between a large budget safari operator and a smaller, more personal outfit?

Time to enjoy, relax and soak up the atmosphere.

I see many tourists on break neck safaris with guides being tasked as minibus drivers on itineraries cramming as many parks as possible in the shortest time.

The truth is they don’t really want to do that. All guides love working with companies like ours, slower paced tours with time to stop for morning coffee or sundowner drinks in the bush.

Choose your operator wisely, you may pay a little bit extra but you will get a world of difference.

Just created a beautiful midrange safari for a lovely group of retired friends - I’m so excited for them and can’t wait for their feedback.

Not too rushed with plenty of time to enjoy each location - but varied enough to capture 2 distinct regions of the Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater and Tarangire.

They had a cheaper offer from a large bucket shop safari operator but we explained (and they appreciated) how they were in the wrong places for much of the time, hence it was cheaper.

In the end they paid around $250 per person more - but what a different experience they will have.

Open or closed?

This is a topic that frequently arises when planning a safari. Should we go with an open jeep or a closed one?

Thankfully, with Extreme Expedition Tours you can do both.

My answer is simple: if you have to choose one - choose a closed jeep. Many camps offer open jeeps in a game package, and you are in a doorless and windowless 4x4 as close as you can get to the wildlife - or are you?

The open jeep cannot travel far from the camp, neither can it travel over rough terrain or flooded roads safely. Tourists are very exposed and can easily be tipped out so drivers need to be super cautious.

In short open jeeps are really nice, but to go wherever is possible, to see as much as you can, you need a closed jeep.

We blend the two and offer both, even at the same camp, so you can decide.

Breakfast at Tiffany’s ?

Meh!

Breakfast at Maasai Kopjes?

How about alongside the Ngare Nanyukie River in a prime location close to the Maasai and Barafu Kopjes - lion country.

Make sure you’re the only one having breakfast 🦁

How we say thank you - to you.

At Extreme Expedition Tours, we know clients have a huge choice in operators, from budget to high end, and when they choose us, we always like to say “thank you” with little gifts along the way.

It will be a surprise; but it could be a walking safari, a night drive, a bush lunch or a remote rocky kopjes sundowner - where you will enjoy the sunset all on your own.

Sprinkling some stardust on top of the magic!
