I wholeheartedly agree. Safari is so much more than just the accumulation of trophies at safari's end. One of the reasons that I recommend Masailand so highly is because of the Masai people. Folks tell me they don't want to hunt around a bunch of people but the Masia are an integral part of the Masailand experience and one would miss a great deal without that opportunity to interact with them.

The last few times we have gone to Africa we have had the good fortune to be able to drive all over. Some of this was long and tedious but we got to see another side of Africa seperate from the hunting. Hitting the wide places in the road for gas and supplies off the tourist routes to me is an invaluable experience that people too often do not take advantage of.

We offer a hunt in Mahenge on the border of the Selous. Folks can either charter down from Dar Es Salaam or drive. In both cases it kills a day and you can't really hunt so why not drive? Interestingly everybody wants to fly eventhough it is twice as expensive.

That expression about "Taking time to smell the roses" applies in triplicate to safari and I think anyone not taking even a day or two away from the hunting to do something else is doing themselves a disservice.

Regards,

Mark
