The Dodo Group Tanzania demonstrated all-round excellence with both the planning/communications and execution of the Safari. The trip was extremely well thought out. Given i wanted to go to a number of National Parks from Moshi to the Serengeti, it was very important that each safari experience built upon each other. Kudos to Dodo in this regard. In addition to this, kudos to Dodo for excellent timely communication with a clear demonstration of the plan/change for any communication/adjustment to the trip. I had a few specific requirements that were accommodated for nicely (excellent flexibility), which were then clearly communicated back in terms of updated schedule, pricing (if applicable).
The guide was the best i have ever had. Superior knowledge of Tanzania customs, peoples, history; in addition to what would be expected out of an exceptional safari guide. The guide had excellent resources (e.g. books on the diverse bird species) as well. The guide had an excellent method of ensuring clear understanding of the specific daily plan, identifying where we may want to deviate from the plan (e.g. if an interesting development was identified by another safari or discovered ourselves). The guide demonstrated excellent expertise and a great method to gradually teach/provide more detailed knowledge of the animal(s) being pursued; especially from National Park/Safari to the next National Park/Safari.
Accommodation and meals were excellent. Better than expected. Cook was exceptional with meal quality, size, timeliness and attention to details
