Anna Maria
Our experience with Liacon has been excellent from minute one. We take a 6-day safari through Arusha park, TaranguirePark, Serengeti park, Ngorongoro crater. Iddi always very attentive, helped us in planning the trip, organizing and all the issues leading up to the trip. Always attending to our preferences. Not only has it been a trip to safari, but we have been able to get to know the Tanzanian culture and the way of life of the locals thanks to the excursions scheduled by both the rice and banana fields, the local food or the Maasai people. Our Andreu(Enru) guide was outstanding. Always very attentive. An excellent professional as a guide, knowing every corner of the parks to not miss anything, as well as an excellent person. It has been very gratifying for us to share our trip with you. We also have good words for our cook Fofy, who prepared us more delicious meals during our camping days! Overall, the organization of the company, Iddi (its manager) and his staff (both our guide and our cook) has been quite successful. Finally, it is to be appreciated that they have also managed our move to Zanzibar, always reaching out to us for any questions or questions we needed.
