    We were looking for a Safari organized tour in Tanzania (Serengeti, Ngorongoro, lac Manyara, etc.......) with National Geographic as we had prior great experience with them. National Geographic did not provide tours but had a contract with G Adventures, a company based in Toronto, Canada, which promoted tours under National Geographic name. The experience was not as good. The staff, guide and driver were great and the safari superb but accommodations were very basic and food disappointing. One of the lodge was way outside the area to visit which required additional 50 km (round trip) of very bumpy and dusty trails. It also required to wake up very earlier to catch the morning activity of the wildlife. The choice of hotel in Arusha, Ilboro lodge, departing and arrival accommodation for the group, was a poor choice, quite basic rooms, average food and remote from the center. Moreover, access to the hotel was difficult with the last half a km, a bumpy and dusty trail in a not very safe neighborhood. We felt trapped. For a couple of hundreds $ more, the African Tulip, were we stayed at the end of the Safari would have made the experience so much more enjoyable.
