  JAMBO! We are happy to be back in the jungle for safari and Wildlife experience, I wish to share with you one of the recent safari feedback from our client who travelled with us during this trying time of COVID-19 We are happy that travelling is getting back to normal slowly but surely. This is to let you know that in Tanzania the doors are wide open so do not hesitate to reach out to our travel experts and organize your African dream safari.  Wilderness is calling We booked a customized safari - 2 days in Mikumi for animals watching with a overnight stay in a lodge inside the park - 1 day Mikumi town - 1 day hiking in Morogoro Uluguru Mountains For a fair price. We had a fantastic trip! Abraham took great care of us, we learned a lot about the Tanzanian culture and history, as well as the current "state" of the country. We saw lots of animals, we have great memories to take back home. The trip itself was very well organized, we felt very safe (even though Tanzania seems to

Plan Now, Go Later

Image
What next for the Travel World after this ? We know travel is the last thing on your mind right now. But that doesn't mean we're not wondering about what happens next to the travel world.  This lockdown will cause many people to lose their jobs, slashed their incomes, even caused businesses to permanently shut down. NO, large, self-sustaining chains, corporates, and large-funded airlines, nothing will really happen to them. We mean the small owners & workers who are empty right now. We're not saying their burdens are your sole responsibility to bear. But we fear and wonder how they will jump back from the lack of tourists and travelers. SO WHAT WE ASK IS When it is perfectly safe to travel again, then help us rebuild the travel industry. Go on those vacations later that you're itching to go on right now. Reach out to the travel companies who are so eagerly waiting for you to make future plans. And

Image
From left Hon and the Excellency 2nd , 3rd, 4th and 5th Tanzanians Presidents Tanzania celebrating 58 years of independence meanwhile takes center stage in the fastest growing sub-Saharan African countries. Tanzania being a reunion of Tanganyika and Zanzibar in 1964 after Tanganyika gained independence in 1961, has become a center of world wonder and a world renowned for its stability and peace.

When to see the Great Migration in Africa

Image
When to see the Great Migration in Africa The annual Wildebeest Migration that takes part throughout the Serengeti and Masai Mara ecosystem is one of the most spectacular events on the wildlife calendar. It has been described as “the greatest show on earth”. The migration route can change from year to year as the movements depend on rainfall and grazing. So predicting when to see the Great Migration in Africa can be a tricky science. Fortunately, Bohobe Travels guides on the ground in both Tanzania and Kenya have been documenting the migration dates over the last 10 years. During that period, there have not been many instances when the Great Migration has been in the exact same location during the same dates as the year before, as this is a natural phenomenon of the wilderness and dependent on numerous seasonal factors. This means there is a lot more skill involved in booking an African migration safari than simply replicating the dates of the previous year. Below is a rou

Image
You’ve waited months for your safari to finally come around. And now you have to decide what you must pack for your safari. Decisions, decisions, decisions.   Bohobe Travels   is here to help. Here are a few of our tips: 1. Passport, itinerary, travel insurance docs and eTickets It seems obvious, but we would be remiss if we didn't put this at the top of the list of what you must pack for your safari. 2. Prescription meds Remember to put your prescription medications in your hand luggage (in case your check-in bag goes astray... it happens!)…and make sure you have enough of each type to last your entire safari. 3. Prescription glasses (sunglasses, hat, sunblock et al) If you wear prescription glasses, be sure to pack more than one set (in case you lose one or they get broken). You will be outdoors for much of the time, so be prepared. Pack a hat, sunblock, long sleeves, and lip balm. 4. Camera, video and binoculars Whilst most people will remember to take t

10 Tips for Road Trips

Image
So many people fly everywhere these days that you might think the African road trip is a thing of the past. This is not actually the case. While it does seem that the “On the Road” experience of getting a car and just going for the sake of going is in decline, the statistics (and the number of cars all around you) prove that more travellers than ever are taking to the roads for vacations and family visits, albeit apparently for more frequent but shorter trips. And frankly, with airline customer service unquestionably in decline, many Americans would rather drive than fly. Stats aside, there is no denying that the lure of the road is undeniable and probably eternal; it almost seems embedded in our very makeup. There is a richness to traversing the land an inch at a time that is absent from the experience of climbing into a metal canister and climbing out at your destination. To get the most of your experience, don’t miss these road trip tips. 1. Clean your car befor
