An amazing experience - An amazing experience in all aspects! Safari organization at the top! Tomek managed a difficult situation very well (plane crash) and quickly found other solutions (light plane). Seeing these animals live in their natural conditions will stay with me forever. I can't wait to see beautiful photos from Tomek! ;-)

The most wonderful safari in Tanzania - It was a wonderful safari with Tomek. A guide and photographer, a man with passion. He told and explained the world of animals in a fantastic way. His team of pure off-road drivers drove perfectly close to the animals. We felt like guests of animals, respecting their home in the bush. The longest safari of all offered and wonderful photos taken by Tomek - this is what you expect from the safari of a lifetime!

16.9 Safari - We went on a safari with Tomek on September 16th, it was the best experience we have ever had, we have never been so closer to the animals. Big thanks also to our driver Amani, he can tell so much about animals and is very funny. I can recommend everyone if they want to go on a safari, then only with Tomek.

The best Safari - Tomek is a super positive person. He takes great photos and his team of crazy Safari Gateway drivers know where to look for animals. If Safari, only with them!

Awesome experience - We were on a trip organised by Tomasz Dworczyk - our awesome photographer and really nice guy. Our driver and guide was Ramadan - another great man. We felt safe with him, even next to lions. There was no place he couldn't get into, thanks to it we took many amazing photos. Also he has huge knowledge about Selous and animals living there.
All drivers were well-coordinated, so we had info from others where to go to see animals and we didn't disturb each other.

Adventure of a Lifetime - It's an amazing adventure to see how these animals live in their natural environment, and they are practically at your fingertips, lions, giraffes and hippos... great organization, great drivers who know how not to scare the animals and respect them very much, Tomek is an amazing character, very positive energy and he takes great souvenirs, i.e. photos... and you have to experience them to load them on Safari! 👍👍👍👍👍 I recommend it to everyone.

4.5 hour safari - For spending nearly $1000 for two of us to go on safari, this was not worth the money, as we spent only merely 4 hours looking for animals on the safari, and the remaining time was spent sitting in the airport waiting to fly to the park, eating lunch, and driving to get back to the airport. We saw very few animals, which I realize isn't always a guarantee, but of the "12 hours" the safari claimed to be, very little of the day was actually spent on safari, and was fairly disappointing for the amount of hard-earned money spent.

Definitely not something I expected... - Unfortunately, there will be no oohs and aahs from me. 19/11/2023 safari with a photographer recommended so strongly by Tomek Dworczyk “Journey for a Million Photos”. I asked about the conditions, the weather, the quality of the photos and invariably I was told that everything would be at the highest level, and that even if it rains in Zanzibar, it does not mean that it will be the same in Selous. Meanwhile, it was raining like crazy - yes, I know you have no influence on the weather, but due to the frequent trips you organize, you can honestly inform that in case of rain, the animals will hide deep in the bush, and the drivers will stick only to the main road in the park, one with road signs informing, for example, about turns and on which trucks drive because they will be afraid of getting stuck in the mud also because of the condition of car engines. The thing about animals is that they avoid the main road. So what did we get for 450 euros per person? Transfer from and to the hotel, meal, a lot of rain, long, empty (without animals) and pointless drives on the main road, a herd of elephants on the opposite bank of a reservoir, hippos in an artificial reservoir created after gravel extraction , a hippos in another reservoir, three giraffes, a lot of warthogs and impalas, crocodile's eyes above the water surface, a few species of birds - weavers above an artificial reservoir, white herons also above it, a spotted eagle that flew somewhere in the bush, an eagle that I spotted on a tree and that was it. Photos? Rather poor quality. And now, just to make myself clear - my opinion refers to this particular safari, which I would not have booked if I had received an honest answer to the questions I asked during the conversation. I regret a lost day, which I could have spent in a much more interesting way than sitting in the car and banging around for well over half of the time planned for the safari on the main road, especially that after “my safari” I saw that the tour operator
changed Selous to Mikumi due to the weather forecast. So he also could have offered it to us and above all his duty is to give an honest information so that the client can make a decision he will not regret.
