Tansania`23
Im August diesen Jahres haben wir für 18 Tage einen Toyota Landcrusier bei Gladiola Adventure gemietet. Wir waren sehr aufgeregt mit unserer deutschen Mentalität und dem Bewusstsein, wie Verträge hierzulande gestaltet sind.
Ab Anfang März standen wir mit Didas in Kontakt und bereiteten unser Abenteuer als Selbstfahrer vor.
Er hat uns stets und zügig geantwortet und uns sehr unterstützt dabei.
Am 2.8.23 war es soweit. Didas hat uns das Auto persönlich nach Dar es Salaam gebracht. Nach einer Einführung in die Handhabung der Dachzelte, das Zubehör und die Technik eines Reifenwechsels ging es los auf eine phantastische Reise durch dieses wunderschöne Land.
Im Lake Manyara Nationalpark gab unser Kühlschrank den Geist auf. Einen Tag später hatten wir einen neuen. Wirklich sehr großartig, wie Didas uns während der ganzen Zeit zur Seite stand und geholfen hat. Auch die Permits für den Ngorongoro haben wir per Telefon und WhatsApp organisiert bekommen.
Die Menschen in Tansania sind überaus freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es war eine wunderbare Erfahrung dieses Land als Selbstfahrer zu erleben und können es wärmstens weiter empfehlen. Ebenfalls ist Gladiola Adventure mit Didas eine hervorragende Adresse!!!
Wir kommen bestimmt wieder.
Eine Kleinigkeit lieber Didas: bitte packt mal neue Campingstühle in das Campingzubehör ;-)

A trip we will never forget, thanks to Reggie.
We stayed for two weeks in Tanzania and got to see the amazing nature, animals and culture of the people. Our guide Reggie knew so much about the country, the way animals live, how the ecosystems work and so much more. His knowledge and passion made us feel so engaged with the country. Tanzania has a special place in our hearts and Gladiola and our amazing guide made this happen. Thank you.

Our group of 4 went on a 3-day safari with Gladiola adventure and had an amazing experience. Didas was amazing organizing the whole thing and our guide George was very knowledgeable about animals big and small! He did a great job touring us around three different national parks without a hitch. The accommodation we were put up in was very impressive, especially considering the relatively low price we ended up paying so if you're looking for a budget friendly safari without sacrificing quality, Gladiola is definitely the way to go!

We traveled as a family of 4 (2 adults and two 4 and 7 year old kids). With our guide Reggie we had a perfect experience. Very patient and open to all our changes and ideas. So we could adapt our plans and were able to maximize our travel. The best is he was great with our kids and we always felt save and well informed about the wildlife

We booked a car with a driver/guide about two weeks before traveling.
We highly recommend the guide/driver George Evarest. He is a true professional in every sense. He has a wide knowledge, is an excellent driver and knows every corner in the area. He was patience, flexible and solved problems calmly and with a smile. We felt we were in good hands throughout the trip.
You should pay attention to a few important matters before setting off:
1. Be sure to prepare all park entry permits in advance. This will save you a lot of time when receiving the vehicle at the company office.
2. Make sure the car has an opening sunroof and a working air conditioner. The sun is strong at noon and it gets hot even in the winter days.
In general: 5 stars to our guide and 3 stars for the car.

The team has been very helpful and provided us with excellent advice and aided our bookings once we have arrived in Arusha. Much appreciated!
Had a great safari, did have some vehicle trouble, but the team was most helpful and made a plan to provide help whilst we were stranded in the middle of nowhere.

Me and my friends had the experience of a lifetime with Gladiola and our tour guide Reggie, I can't recommend them highly enough. We was on a tight budget but they still went above and beyond to cater to us in every which way possible. Reggie had all the information you could wish for on the animals and landscapes so big shout out to him. From me and the lads thanks bud.

We loved our self-drive adventures. We could use the hire car to go to lots of the national parks. The company kept in touch, agreed to allow us to change the dates when I ended up in hospital, we're fine even when we had an issue with the exhaust, werent too bothered about small marks on the car. The Rav4 was perfect for what we needed. Definitely would recommend. Beware though - driving standards are totally different in Africa than the UK, Europe, America etc.

We had to change our plans because the visa for Kenya didn't come in time. Gladiola reacted very promptly to our request, offered a reasonable price and dropped off the car 2 days after booking fully equipped in our lodge in Arusha. Good instructions and help with tour planning and reservations for national parks. Only payment was difficult since they didn't accept card payment. For the rest we can really recommend, car was perfect even on the rough roads in Serengeti and Lake Natron we didn't have any problems.

Me and my girlfriend had a super time with Gladiola. Renting a car as self drive, going to Serengeti national park is not the easiest safari but by far the most adventurous and exciting. Gladiola (Didas & Melkiory) assist with all the arrangements and are always available for questions or when there are problems occurring.
So all communication has been super fast and you don’t feel alone but valued. Five stars

We spent 5 days in Safari with Gladiola. We hired two cars with Omari as a guide/driver and Matola as a cook.
We could organise our customised journey with a "camping" formula.
At the very start up, it was a little bit desorganised with the payement of left-over that had to be paid, at the latest notice, all in cash.
We were 2 families with six kids and all camping gears were OK.
Our guide,Omari, was great , dynamic and very helpful.
He made everything to feel us confortable and share his knowledge of wildlife.
He even teached us the national local song (Hakuna matata) in choir.
Matola was a great cook, always ready at time, and preparing us good food always in sufficience.
Cars were old but all in order and with all the things needed for that kind of trip.
In conclusion,we recommend Gladiola for people who want a flexible formula that can fit their budget.
