Meticulous experience We saw and experienced more We we dreamed we would and I think Aloyce's expertise played a part. We also really enjoyed coming in the off-season February for the cooler temps and smaller crowds.

Unforgettable moments, laughter and exceptional service they provided Our tour operator had pre-arranged several excursions through Soul Retreat Tours, which we modified and expanded during our stay in Mikumi. Every driver, guide, and especially Stephen, who coordinated everything, were outstanding. They ensured that no question went unanswered, and all the programs provided were of the highest quality. We are particularly thankful for the last-minute adjustments made to accommodate us. Honestly, we wish we had booked directly with Soul Retreat Tours from the start instead of our initial operators.
