Mt. Kilimanjaro

consists of three summits: to the west, the shira plateau, to the east Mawenzi peak and between the two the snow-capped summit of Kibo which reaches 5894 meters. It’s the roof of Africa. There are several ways to reach the top: Marangu route (to the east) is the most popular, Machame (to the west), Umbwe and Mweka (to the south) are more demanding.

Mount Meru

Is a conical volcanic mountain reaching a height of 4,566m above sea level and is the fifth highest in Africa. The mountain is within Arusha National Park, which came into existence in 1960 when the wildlife area around the Momella Lakes and Ngurudoto Crater were officially declared a protected area. Three to four days is the recommended time for climbing the mountain. The best time to climb Meru is from June to February, although it may rain in November. The best views of Kilimanjaro from Meru are between December and February.

Ol Doinyo Lengai

volcano, altitude 2886 meters (9524 feet), is a unique and extremely fascinating volcano that towers above the East African Rift Valley in Northern Tanzania, just south of Lake Natron. It is the only volcano in the world that sometimes erupts natrocarbonatite lava, a highly fluid lava that contains almost no silicon. Natrocarbonatite lava is also much cooler than other lavas, being only about 950 degrees F (510 degrees C) compared to temperatures over 2000 degrees F (~1100 degrees C) for basaltic lavas. Natrocarbonatite is the most fluid lava in the world. Lava with a low gas content can flow like a whitewater stream, and actually has a viscosity near that of water. Natrocarbonatite lava glows orange at night, but is not nearly as bright as silicon-based lavas since it is not as hot.

During the day it is not incandescent; most flows look like very fluid black oil, or brown foam, depending on the gas content. In the past, some visitors to the crater believed they were seeing mud flows. Most newly solidified lava is black and contains crystals that sparkle brightly in the sun. There are also sometimes small flows known as “squeeze-ups” that are light gray when they flow and harden. Contact with moisture rapidly turns natrocarbonatite lava white because of chemical reactions that occur when the lava absorbs water. Eventually the water absorption process turns lava flows into soft brown powder.

During dry weather the whitening of flows happens over a period of a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the thickness of the flow. In rainy weather the lava surface turns white immediately. In parts of the crater that have been inactive for several months, the ground is light brown/white and so soft that one sinks into it when walking.

Great 2 1/2- day Safari to Ngorongoro and Tarangire We had a really great time on safari to Ngorongoro and Tarangire with Amiri and Miraji! Both are lovely, friendly and humorous young man. Amiri drove carefully and helped us to spot various animals and always a had some interesting fact about them to tell. Miraji prepared really nice (veggy) food. The third day we visited a Masaai Village which was an interesting experience. They showed us around the village and the houses and also offered some jewellery to buy.. they danced and asked us to join which felt a bit uncomfortable at first but was nicely meant… it is kind of a show for the mzungo but was still interesting to learn about their way of living… In our opinion ngorongoro and tarangire are perfect for a shorter safari.. you really see all the animals and we also heared that lake manyara isn’t so rich of them. Overall really enjoyable experience and would definitely do it again with bobby and his team!

Six grate days and big 5! Wonderful 6 day safari. Our drivers and gides Amani and Joly were great. Very polite, we felt all the time big care of them. We saw all we expected and more. We went to Tarangire, Hadzabe tribe, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manjara and Masai vilagde. Our gides did all there best that we saw everything, were punctual. Overnites we can chose according to our wishes. Overnight places in park were interesting, new experienses to sleep among the animals. I would not recomend to go to Masai village, becouse it is very comersial, but Hadzabi tribe people were very interesting to visit. We had 6 grate days in Tanzanija and saw big 5!

Family Safari with Bobby Camping Safari’s We did a 6 day safari with 6 family including our 4 yo granddaughter. Amiri our driver and guide was fabulous and very accommodating. He made sure we all got the best views of the wildlife and scenery. Bobby tours designed our safari around our requests and we started with Tarangirie, Manyara, Serengeti, including the Mara River, where we were lucky enough to see a river crossing. Finally Ngorongoro. We saw lots of game, including lion, cheetah and a very special sighting of a leopard active during the day. I would be happy to recommend Bobby Tours!

4 days Safari with children (10 and 12 yrs) in Tanzania - Terengire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara National Park This was our first Safari. Everything worked as it should - pick up, car, driver, accommodation, return on time... We stayed once at Tanzania Bush Camp in Serengeti and twice at Karibuni Crater Forest Close to Ngorongoro. We were mainly surprised how clean were the places and we had no worries about quality of the food. But at the end it’s always about people and we were superlucky. Our driver and guide Amiri was exactly what you would like to get - experienced driver, who knows the “right” places (quite often we were the first or second to see the animals before others), has knowledge about the animals and is respectful to them, very good relation to children, and, last but not least, has a good sense of humour:)

Safari family trip We did a four day trip with our family to safari. Me, my husband and our three kids - 16, 14 and 12. We visited Lake Manyara National Park, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. It was really an amazing experience for us. We slept in the tents. The food was good, both Amiri (guide and driver) and Miraji (cook) were great companions. They stayed positive even if some unexpected complications (road accident by other car, but we needed to wait until the road was cleared) occurred on our way back. Amiri was very knowledgeable about the animals, knew a lot of details and was able to see and show us really a lot. We especially liked the lions, giraffe and elephants. We can definitely recommend this trip and experience.

Kilimanjaro family trip We did a family trip to Kilimanjaro, Marangu route, 6 days. Me, my husband, and our three kids - 16, 14, and 12 years old. I would like to thank to all the team for great experience for us. Bobby camping safari team lead by Innocent was very helpful. They set the pace for the walk for us, helped us when needed. Food was good. Our stuff was already on place every time we reached the hut. All the team was positive minded which helped to make us feel better when we were tired. They kept track of our health status, to ensure that we avoid possible health complication, especially in relation to high altitude. We all managed to reach the Uhuru peak.

Great safari Recently, we have finished our unforgettable safari, and I have the best recommendations for the trip. Although our driver and guide Amiri drove us for 9-10 hours every day, the time flew quickly for us, we didn’t get bored. The weather was perfect most of the time, cloudy with sun. We saw a lot of animals, it exceeded our expectations. We were shocked when Amiri recognised them hiding in the bush or in the tree. Amiri didn’t leave any hesitations about his professionalism, I think we were lucky to have him as our guide.

Hakuna Matata in Tanzania We have just finished our 5 day trip to Tanzania. We visited Serengeti NP, Ngorongoro NP, Lake Manyara and Masai village with Bobby camping and the driver and guide Mr. Amani. The trip was amazing and unforgettable. Well organized and planned, everything was on time from the first minute we met our guide Amani in the hotel in Arusha. The car was very nice and clean. Amani was with us during the whole trip, and honestly it was a great luck to have him as our guide - such a professional, polite and patient person, always smiling and joking with us, he took a good care of us making our trip safe and pleasant every minute. During these several days he became a close friend to us and treated us like a family. Amani was also answering all our questions about Tanzanian people , culture, nature, animals. So the trip was not only about watching but also very informative and interesting. As for animals, we met almost everything we were dreaming to see (only leopard is missing): lions and lionesses (many of them!), cheetahs (we met 8!), hyenas, zebras, giraffes, elephants, buffalos, wildebeests, impalas, hippos, rhinos, baboons, blue monkeys, gazelles, antelopes, lots of different birds and so on. That was our dream for many years to visit Africa and Tanzania, and I could not even imagine that we would have such a great safari time here. Thanks a lot Amani and Bobby camping safaris for your great job and these beautiful memories. Asante sana! Next time we visit Tanzania for sure we will go again for this company. And I highly recommend to plan tours with this reliable company 👌 .
