3 WONDERS EXPEDITIONS & SAFARIS

Our trip with 3 Wonders was a complete disaster from start to finish. Here are the main issues we encountered:

Serengeti Entry Delay: We faced a frustrating 2-hour delay at the Serengeti entry due to incomplete paperwork, causing us to miss our evening game drive. This is there typical reason because they don’t pay the park fees and somehow expect to get around it. In some reviews, travelers have paid parks which is their strategy .

Grouped with Campers: We were grouped with campers, wasting our time waiting for their activities, which was not what we had signed up for.

Wasted Time in Serengeti: The next day, we were dropped at the campsite around 11 am for an early lunch, only for the driver to leave and return after 2.5 hours, wasting our time and ruining our experience.

Limited Game Drives: We had no game drive on the first day and only a short one on the morning of the second day, which was a huge letdown.

Terrible Safari Vehicle: The safari vehicle was in terrible condition, constantly breaking down and needing to be pushed by other vehicles.

Broken Passenger Door: The passenger door of the jeep was broken, creating a serious safety hazard.

Rude Driver: The driver was extremely rude, lacked information, and appeared upset with us for no reason, which was very frustrating.

Broken Radio: The jeep's radio was broken, preventing the driver from communicating with others to locate animals, making the safari pointless.

Missed Excursions: Our itinerary included excursions like the Olduvai Gorge museum, but there was no plan for these, which was incredibly disappointing.

Fuel Tank Hazard: The fuel tank in the jeep was broken, which was very dangerous. Despite this, the driver continued to drive the same jeep for three hours. It was late evening and dark, and we were in the deep jungle where wild animals roam. Anything could have happened to us, and the rescue jeep arrived very late.

Actually no one now books with 3 wonders because of bad reviews but in some cases your safari company might sell your booking to 3wonders. If your safari company assigns you to 3 Wonders, please don't go with them because you will die or get killed . No animals, this is more of driver/

Tips - don't pay by Cash and pauny credit card

Unsere dreitägige Safari war dank unseres sehr freundlichen und geduldigen Guides Omary und des Kochs Daniel, der uns wirklich leckeres Essen aufgetischt hat, ein positives Erlebnis. Wir sind meistens pünktlich gestartet, haben viele Tiere gesehen - alle Big Five waren dabei - und selbst eine Reifenpanne wurde sehr schnell behoben. Omary ließ uns an seinem Wissen über die Tier- und Pfanzenwelt teilhaben und war immer bereit, auf unsere Wünsche einzugehen.
Allerdings ließ der Zustand der Zelte, Matratzen und Schlafsäcke sehr zu wünschen übrig. Die Zelte waren teilweise löchrig und die Reißverschlüsse defekt, die Matratzen hart, schmutzig und kaputt und die Schlafsäcke waren alt und nicht gewaschen. Auch das Auto war nicht wirklich komfortabel bzw in Ordnung. Die Ladestationen funktionierten nicht und außer in der ersten Reihe gab es so gut wie keine Beinfreiheit.
Alles in allem also nur drei Sterne.
Trotzdem noch einmal der Dank an Omary und Daniel: Ihr habt eure Sache sehr gut gemacht!

いい点は安いことです。それ以外は最低です。車の故障が４回ありました。パンクが1回、タイヤが外れたのが2回、エンジン不良が1回。その度に時間を無駄にします。悪路でタイヤが外れるというのは、命の危険にさらされます!
車の故障で何度も別の車に乗り換えました。最終日、途中の道で車が故障し、ドライバーは隣町に部品を買いに行き、1時間半程、道端で放置され、タクシーに乗って帰ってきました。
動物は見れましたが、ドライバーは早朝6時半に出発すると言い、メンバーが車で待機してるのに、一人で朝食を食べて私達を待たせる始末。我々が止まってと言ってないのに、ドライバーが勝手に車を止め、自分の携帯で写真を撮るのはどういうことでしょうか?プロのドライバーとは思えません。
テントも古く、寝袋やマットは不潔です。
他のツアーより安いですが、たった数十ドル安いだけで、不快な思いをするのなら、必ず別の会社をオススメします。

Be sure to avoid this travel agency, very bad experience, driver omari and chef danniel forced tips, the attitude was very bad, and the stipulated project did not fully materialize. In addition, the rules make us get up at 6 o 'clock, but the driver wasted too much time. Car is old, it's broken down on the road, and it's costing us too much time. The tent was cold at night. I wanted a mat, but the cook charged me $20. Be sure to avoid this travel agency!Everything, including cutlery, cushions and sleeping bags, was very dirty. The food was terrible

If I had seen reviews of this company I would have chosen ANY other operator for my 4 day safari, however I booked with an agent and did not realize they were working with 3 Wonders. The reviews here are sadly very accurate - broken equipment, poor (and rude) guides, and a completely awful experience. When you pay $200 a day to visit the Serengeti, you should spend more than 2 hours on a game drive, instead of being left at a camp site. Food was awful, not enough, and served much later than other groups. The vegetarian option that I was promised was simply “don’t eat the chicken” (so dinner was just a little bit of rice). Even when we arrived to the camp site very early at 4pm (other groups were on game drives until 7), we didn’t receive our dinner until 8:30, when the others had already gone to bed. Our guide refused to do the morning game drive and told us we couldn’t have breakfast until 7:30 (when the other groups had already packed up and left!) Tents had holes, sleeping bags reeked of urine, the truck was falling apart, and any questions for the guide were met with angry, rude responses. I reported this to the owner of 3 Wonders and he shrugged it all off, as if it is normal practice to provide such an awful experience. Because the “Serengeti permit was already paid for and couldn’t be refunded” - not that we even got to see the Serengeti!! Please, learn from the experience of myself and the others here, and book with ANY other company!! Don’t waste your time and money on this joke of a “safari”. The owner of this company should be ashamed of what they are doing.
