Wildlife Safari Trip 2017
Trip Summary: On July 29th 2017, I, Allan Njamakuya (Founder/Owner), organized and guided a group of 10 people from the U.S.A on an 11-day safari. We stayed in a luxury camp site for 6 days and visited 4 different National Parks in Tanzania. They included: Arusha National Park, Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti National Park.
The first night our clients stayed at Ilboru Safari Lodge, and the next morning after breakfast, we drove our clients to Arusha National Park for a day trip safari. We saw many wild animals including: elephants, zebras, giraffes, baboons, Dik-Diks and waterbacks. We also spotted exotic birds species such as both greater and lesser flamingos, fish eagles, marabou storks, weavers and black smith plovers.
