Review of Breakdown Safaris
Reviewed yesterday via mobile
From the moment Fanuel picked us up at the airport we had the impression we had booked a superior safari guide. About 6 hours later and through the following day we had the very unique opportunity to be able to confirm this...
We were about an hour out from our camp at the Selous: bridge under water, road blocked by a cement truck. It was a matter of minutes before we were onboard a canoe on our way to another safari car which Fanuel hired out on the other side. Against all odds, we still made it to our boat safari that evening! Fanuel + his awesome truck, didn't. But he made sure to set us up with someone else for our full day game drive the next day - all perfectly coordinated right from his truck/the bridge. This, we thought, was the greatest advantage of having booked a guy that is his own boss and knows the whole town.
Well, turns out, when you get lost off-roading in the Selous then stuck in a mongoose hole for the greater part of a day, you realize there are several other advantages to booking with Breakdown Safari.
1- not all Safari cars are built the same - Fanuel's car, which he gets serviced after every safari, was significantly more comfy than the other car (leg room is amazing).
2- nothing stands between Fanuel and you having the vacation of a lifetime - he is extremely resourceful.
3- this guy is a pro at handling all things "breakdown".
Luckly Fanuel was able to get across the bridge so he could come to our rescue! From the moment he pulled us out of that hole and we rushed to see a lion show beyond our wildest dreams, and until the end of our trip 10 days later, we were incredibly happy with our choice of safari company! We can't wait until we are back for our next adventure :)
Date of experience: February 2020.
