    The Best Way to Start Tanzania

    5/5

    My Tanzania journey began with Burigi Chato Safaris, and I couldn’t have chosen better. This one-day Ngorongoro safari gave me a magical introduction to the country. Seeing giraffes on the way to the crater and later spotting lions made me realize this was truly Africa at its best. The team made the trip smooth and stress-free.

    I only had a short holiday, but this trip was the perfect way to enjoy a full day of wildlife and scenery. Burigi Chato Safaris provided an experienced guide who made sure we saw as many animals as possible. I especially loved the stop at the crater floor where hippos were relaxing in the water. A must-do safari.
