We got 2000%. Our custom tour by Adam was 2000 per cent awesome. We have had a wonderful time and got to go to a Maasai village and they didn’t even know we were coming. And did we get to see a lot! I just love this COUNTRY and am talking to Adam about taking me on another custom tour for 2 weeks to see the chimps and southern Tanzania and the gorillas in Uganda in the summer. Will see how that works out.

When we were in Tanrangire National Park for 2 days. we stayed at Kikoti Camp and it was WONDERFUL. It was different than the one we stayed at when I came here in 2004 and I can see why they changed. We saw hundreds and hundreds of elephants. Tom said it was the same ones over and over!!!!!!!!! At the hotel eating dinner, I just remarked to Tom that I had to wash my hands now as I had just handled money. 15 seconds later a man appeared beside me holding a pan full of water for me to wash my hands!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That just blew me away. What service and I ddin’t even ask for it. We loved our room in its own house and everything. Saturday, we were the only guests at the hotel but Sunday they were sold out because the Tauck Tanzania tour was coming in and the hotel was doing the BUSH luncheon for the tour. They are the best.

July 2009 Safari

I returned last week from a great eight days on safari with Adam. I spent a day and a night at The Crater and six nights in The Serengeti National Park. Four nights at the Serena Serengeti and Two nights at The Kirawira tented camp near The Grumeti river.

The final count on lions was 111 with lots and lots of young cubs. We only saw five Cheetahs and two leopards. One of the two real highlights of the trip was the hundreds and I mean hundreds of Elephants we saw. We saw large family groups with small calves and huge bull elephants in The Crater and in The Seronera Valley.

The second highlight was catching the wildebeast migration just right in The Western Serengeti. I have great pictures of thousands of Wildebeasts crossing the dry spots on The Grumeti River.

I am going to post some pictures that were taken last week in the next couple of days. I miss the bush already and I cannot wait to return in January.

Adam was our guide on our African adventure and I cannot say enough about his knowledge of the wildlife, the people and the history of African, not to mention his patience and friendly domineer with his clients. He is truly one of a kind. I cannot wait to get back and visit with Adam and his homeland. Africa is a magical place and one that should not be missed - especially when Adam is your guide. My hope is that someday all people can visit this beautiful land and help conserve the natural beauty that is Africa.

If you love nature, if you love untouched nature, animals by the tens hundreds and thousands The Serengeti National Park is for you. On my last trip to Tanzania I saw 145 lions, 30 cheetahs and 7 leopards and 4 serval cats. Forget about the hundreds of hyenas, elephants, giraffes and the thousands of wildebeests, zebras and gazelles. I saw the birth of 3 lion cubs and a cheetah hunt and kill 2 gazelles.
My first tented lodge (Mbuzi Mawae) where I have stayed previously was outstanding. I had a lion pride hunting buffalo outside of my tent. I heard the lions roaring at night. And the food was great as well!
I can go on and on about how great Tanzania, its wild life and its people are but you should experience it yourself because words and pictures cannot do it justice. I started Proud African Safaris with Adam because we want to help preserve the beauty of Tanzania, protect its wild life and give its people a better life through clean sustainable occupations. And for purely selfish reasons I want to protect and sustain wild life so I can go on safari many many more times.

My Back Ground,
My name is Adam Steven ole Meshallu,
I am a member of the Maasai tribe. I was born in Arusha and spent my childhood living in both my home town in Arusha and my traditional Maasai Village in the Ngorongoro Conservation area, very near the Ngorongoro Crater. I had an early exposure to International Visitors who always showed a kin in interest in my Maasai Village and Culture. Since my young age, I dreamed to be a guide, to lead and take people on a safari and share with them my natural world of wildlife. I learned much as a young child about the flora and fauna I uncounted while living in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.
After completing School in 1993, I went on to study wildlife Management at the Mweka Wildlife College including wildlife Ecology and Biology Courses as well as basic field skills at Limpopo Field guiding Academy in South Africa. After my studies I joined three different tour companies namely Ranger Safaris LTD, Bushbuck Safaris and H & A Unique Safaris from the three companies I captured a wide Experience. Having worked with big and small tour companies, Hotels, lodges and camps. I have been exposed and experienced to meet and work with people from different corners of the world.
Having worked with large companies, I have decided to establish a company that will give more personal touch to any clients and to be more focused on wildlife viewing and nurture my spirit to nature. With ten years of experience in the National Parks of Northern Tanzania, I proud that I will share my skills and talent to our customers visiting Tanzania through Proud African Safaris LTD.
