Good value for money
Great experience and a very nice team, great guides, and an amazing cook!
Expect budget camping, a little late dinner, and short nights. The best deal we could find, although we recommend bringing your own sleeping bag and sleeping mat, for the rental material from the company doesn’t have the best quality.
We had a great time with our time and during our hike.

We had a beautiful 4 days safari. Everything was well organized, driver and cook were very friendly and helpful.

I would highly recommend Bobby Tours. It was a great experience.
The food was great, and no one in my group had any digestive problems. It was a mix of Tanzanian traditional food prepared for European taste. Tent accommodation was great, I had my sleeping bag and a pillow with me. If you travel in July or August, use the warmest sleeping bag you have! The showers in park camps are really cold, I suggest bringing moisturizing wipes and toilet paper with you on camping.

Our 4-days Camping Safari to Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and lake Manyara was a great experience! I highly recommend this company. The owners, the guide and the chef are very nice people and everything was well prepared and organized. The guide had good knowledge about wild animals and was very friendly and calm. The chef prepared fresh, delicious meals every day. The Safari cars are very modern and conferable, making the Safari a relaxing experience (even though it still is very exciting).
Overall we were very satisfied with the good price-performance ratio and will come back for a second safari.
