TANZANIA: Tz Safari Disagreement

[mark-hunter]

So, lets see how this turns out!

Was it fried chicken?

Safe hunting

'would've never seen the light of day...

 

[C.W. Richter]

Q: What's a Zorilla?? I had to check out their website. Hunter apparently scheduled the Regular safari, not a Premium (lol per their list).

 

[IvW]

Blah blah blah......sounds like you are second or third party....where you the hunter or some second or third party...????? Ranting and raving????
Here we call it a "vloer moer"......

I can’t understand these negative “reports” from one post members who join and leave the same day. If I was going to write a negative report or want another hunter to take a negative report seriously, I’d write a real report with details, not just a rant, but they all seem to follow the same pattern.

 

[Rem280]

The fat man in me asks all guides/outfitters about food. I specifically say I don't want damn chicken. Communication goes two ways.

 

[Firebird]

I will happily eat Cold sandwiches for lunch as long as it is game meat. I can make a chicken sandwich at home. But that is a very
Small part of the rant and should have been easily resolved with a quiet conversation in camp

 

[K-man]

I don't mind a negative report from the person who went on the hunt. It's a waste of time and bandwidth to hear from a first time poster who isn't even the hunter. File this one under trolls.

My wife asked for salad with no meat. She got a salad with chicken on it. She looked at it said "I asked for no meat!"

The camp Butler looked at her, looked at the salad, looked back at her and said "but madam that is not meat, that is chicken."

I had to side side with the Butler, chicken is most definitely not meat!

@Just Gina had to laugh also

What sort of cold meat salad has no meat?

Sorry Just Gina but that completes the meal. Unless salad is on the side of the main meal that would be good like steak, chicken , lasagne or BBQ meat. (Brain)

No issues with my outfitter on meals or food on my only safari. I'm pretty sure the outfitter took note of any email conversation shared before travel .

 

[mark-hunter]

During my ship snd offshore service days, which are still ongoing, i had all kinds of international cooks, and all kinds of meal quality. From average to both extremes of quality.
I never complained.

If i would be hunting tanzania, in the bush, slept in the tent, i would think on other priorities.
Heck, give me discount, that i can pay for tanzanian safari, and tell me i will eat corned canned beef, in a tent, i would go to tanzania asap. Beer is nice, but i would accept in these circumstences, plain water for entire duration of safari.

Luxury is home, safari is hunting.
Thats my point.

Lol. They were trying to make the point that they do not consider chicken as meat. @ActionBob says, “chicken ain’t meat!” Lol
The food was great. I have a lot of food allergies and do eat any animal protein at all when hunting or traveling. They had fresh veggies every day for me as asked and that was the only issue was when they made me some sort of bird for a meal. But I just didn’t eat it so it was not a big deal.

@Just Gina, of course chicken is not meat.

I drink red wine with meat, white wine with fish and chicken

Even some vegetarians say chicken is not meat also

I feel the Same , I would forgo the camp luxury for a chance to hunt Tanzania , an old school safari with 1/2 caned food 1/2 living on the land and no premium cost . Sounds wonderful!
I can only discount the OP as I wasn’t there, but the reputation of the professional hunter is top tier!

OK Gina, really - food allergies & a requirement for “fresh veggies” daily? now kidding you a bit: hope that didn’t pull your PH too much off his game LOOKING FOR GAME... PH pulling the tracker off a “fresh track” (trophy Lion, etc.) to toss his clients midday salad - that could be a problem, maybe worse then running out of Caesar dressing!! But you must’ve been in a 1st rate outfit and been well cared for. My Safari was the best service I’ve ever seen and exceeded any hotel or vacation I’ve ever been on...there might of even been salad — don’t remember

And here I thought they were offering some sort of silverback subspecies

 

[geoff rath]

Simple solution, Just Gina; dump the chicken on A B's plate, and steal your favourite salad vege back off his ...
