In Tanzania you cannot enter the National Parks or Ngorongoro
Conservation Area without a guide. I suggest hiring someone out of
Arusha from one of the safari companies and letting them take care of
the park fees, hotels, 4x4 and driver. All the hotels we stayed at had
staff quarters where the drivers stayed, this is part of the ticket.
If you email me I'll give you the name of the safari company we used
and I can also recommend five of the drivers that we shared on our
trip.
Kenya is different, you can go on your own.
