Arusha Bed and Breakfasts - Reviews and Rates

Vandaag hebben we afscheid genomen van onze trouwe gids van de afgelopen weken: Hussein. In het begin is het best raar als zo'n snoeshaan ons komt afhalen van de airport en dat je daar dan de komende 2 weken elke dag mee gaat doorbrengen. Maar het was een prima vent, hij heeft ons veel geleerd over het gedrag van de dieren. Ook waar we keer op k...

The Zanzibar people came back late last night so the house was more full today. Melody and I went to the same place that I went yesterday for Tamiha. We tried to work on pronounciation with the girls by practising conversations. Before that we worked in the garden watering for like 45 minutes so my back is hurting me from lugging pails of water...

Naa har vi altsaa vaert paa ein forektige safari, hele fem dager og fire netter ute i den skikkelige bushen. Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater og Lake Manyara - dyreprogram live med tilhorende fasiliteter som stovete humpete veier og skikkelig basic overnatting i telt. Det begynne aa ligne skikkelige greier naar Ole maa paa do om natten paa Serengeti...

But what I don't really like to think about is what came be...

A **** nights sleep - cats fighting, a late night disco and the early morning call to prayers all combined. Now I'm a fairly liberal chap, but surely after 1000's of years the muslims know all about morning prayers, surely the early morning call could be despatched with?? The Serengeti is vast, hot, dry and dusty - dust gets everywhere. We stopp...

With 2 french people and 2 germans I set off on another safari, thanking my lucky stars that there were no americans. This was not before some panic visits to banks as HSBC had decided to stop me getting cash even though I had told them it was me using the card. Idiots. Anyway, you need to read this in a David Attenborough style............ Here...

After an amazing 3 days in Zanzibar we reluctantly rejoined our tour group back to Dar Es Salaam and drove a full day to Arusha, Tanzania. We stayed at a campsite outside Arusha maybe 20 miles called Snake Park. The next morning we left for the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. The Serengeti is exactly what you would imagine when you think of Afr...

Back to Arusha for a rest day looking around town while the truck had some work done to it.
