Those ten days of our ADS safari were the most exciting days of my life! That’s really saying something big! I have traveled to a number of countries during my 73 years, and I’ve seen things that really amazed me. This adventure topped them all!
For one thing, it is rare that we have an opportunity to just submerge into focusing exclusively on nature for ten days. From early in the morning until early evening, we could sit in that Land Cruiser and watch it all happening right before our eyes….wildebeests, zebras, cheetahs, warthogs, hippos, gazelles, giraffes, leopards, baboons, and so many more animals. Every view was breathtaking!
Patrick, our guide/driver, was a critical part of making this such an incredible trip for us! His experience (10 years with ADS) was evidenced every day. Not only could he spot animals very far away, he knew their behavior enough to know where to move the vehicle so that we could get the best photographs. He was constantly telling us about the animals’ behaviors, habits, and movements. It was like getting a crash coarse in the whole ecosystem in Tanzania. A totally fascinating experience!!
May was a perfect time to go, because it wasn’t crowded. ADS, with their expert advance planning, made this company the best choice! ADS is the only company I would ever use to go on safari in Tanzania!
Videography is my hobby, so I made a 34 minute video that I put online on Vimeo. You don’t need to be a member of Vimeo to see it, and there is no cost to see it. Just click the link below, and it will take you to my Vimeo page. (In the last two weeks, the video on Vimeo has had: 358 downloads and 219 plays in 12 countries.)

Mazie,
My husband, sister and brother-in-law took our 10 day ADS safari in late April. We have made 13 international trips…to include New Zealand and Galapagos…and by far our safari was the most memorable, exciting adventure. The Serengeti is in my blood now and I simply have to make a return trip. Your video brought back such incredible memories! Thanks for making it available to everyone.
Sue, I agree with you. It was captivating…..every single day! The animals had no fences, and they could move about freely. I wish that more of our world was like the Serengeti! I enjoyed making and sharing the video. Mazie
I enjoyed watching your video. It also brought back memories of my own safari. Thank you for sharing.
Amanda, thank you for your note. What I like about video is that it gives images that are in our brain forever. Mazie
Thoroughly enjoyed your video. The music was awesome. Brought back great memories of our Safari in April of 2013. Can’t wait to return. You had baboons on your hood and we had four cheetahs 2 on the hood and two on the back tires.Thanks for sharing. Maggie and Dave
