My wife and I had a fantastic 8-day private safari in Tanzania with Pinnacle Tanzania in July 2024. We worked with N
Gloria in their office to plan a custom safari that included Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Central Serengeti National Park and the Northern Serengeti. She was helpful, patient and very responsive.
Our guide on the safari was Mzee Chuwaa, and he was fantastic. He seemed always to know the best routes and the best places to see wildlife, and did his best to accommodate our interests. He was a veritable font of knowledge about wildlife, trees and plants. We saw everything we hoped for and much more -- the so-called big five, the great migration, and wildebeest river crossings, plus large numbers of giraffes, gazelle, zebras and many other animals, and uncountable numbers and species of birds.
The tour vehicle was in great condition and comfortable. Pinnacle provided delicious hot lunches daily. The accommodations (hotels on the first and last night, and tented camps the other nights) were delightful. On a whim, we let them know the trip was a celebration of our 20th anniversary. To our surprise, they honored us nearly every night.
The entire Pinnacle team led by Frazier provided a well-coordinated and wonderful safari that exceeded our (admittedly high) expectations, at a competitive price.
