Travelicious Review
We did a ten day trip with MyTrip2Tanzania in October 2024 with 6 people and it was just fantastic. The planning was excellent and Philbert and Cilla helped us choose our itinerary and were always responsive to our ideas and needs. Erick as a safari guide was an absolute asset - not only is he extremely friendly and humorous, but also very knowledgeable. No question about the wildlife went unanswered! We are already looking forward to future trips with MyTrip2Tanzania! A big thank you for this unforgettable experience.
