My wife and I are planning to go to Tanzania in late January 2026. The main thing we will do is to attempt climbing Mt Kilimanjaro with a group. We are hoping for some good birds while doing that, but don't know how that will go.
We are also looking at going on safari after the climb, for 4 or 5 days, just a short one. While we will enjoy seeing the animals, we will be far more excited to see new birds!
We are hoping that anyone on the list who has done such a safari with birding can share with us how it went and what company they went with. There are sooooo many safari companies out there, that it is impossible to figure out whether any of them are any good at what they do, let alone if they are any good at birding!
Thanks for any info. Please send off list. If anyone else wants the info, I can compile it and forward.
