Excellent itinerary and information.
Indigo Safaris drew up a fantastic itinerary for our travels through Namibia. It was evident from the first day that they had placed us in the best camps and resorts in every place we visited. The information and GPS maps they provided were accurate and informative and made reaching each destination easy. Full marks to Indigo Safaris for planning an amazing trip for us.
Michele listened, developed tour required which exceeded our expectation, communication excellent.
Michele listened to what type of safari we were looking for and the dates were very specific to our travel needs. Michele organised flights, transfers and gave much needed general info on the area and cultural requirements. Umkumbe Bush Camp meet our expectations and all travel connections ran smoothly.
Excellent!
Michele was wonderful to work with. She was patient with our large group while we changed dates and plans. She was able to guide us through the process and ultimately planned the BEST vacation for us. Every detail from transport, to celebrating my Mom's birthday at every turn, to accommodations, tours and more was clearly thought out! I would highly recommend Michele and Indigo Safaris! You will not be disappointed.
Good service from agent; poor game drives
Booked 2 nights (4 game drives) at Xanatseni Lodge in the Klaserie Game Reserve, part of greater Kruger, through this company. Working with the agent was easy, and he was helpful with changing dates/last minute booking. The lodging, food, and airport transfer were great; however, the game drives (you know, the whole point of the thing) were pitiful. In fact, every person I told about my safari afterward was shocked that someone could see such few animals over four game drives, particularly during a peak month such as August, despite paying around $1000 for two nights and suggestion from my agent that the lodge was a solid place for animal sightings (I had expressed concern that it would not provide ample game viewing opportunities, and I was correct). I did not see a single predator—no lions, leopards, hyenas, wild dogs, etc. Only some rhinos and a hippo in addition to very common sightings like elephants, giraffes, zebras, etc. A couple of the game drives were oddly redundant/unproductive and each one started later than scheduled (two of them 30 minutes later because it was “too hot” and did not end any later). I actually saw the same variety of animals and some rarer ones (incl cats) during a single game drive in Etosha (organized separately). To be clear, I understand that a safari can be a game of odds, but it is hard not to feel ripped off after paying $1000 for sightings you could get during a drive from the airport, and this review will hopefully serve as a helpful data point for anyone trying to determine their odds in the future.
An Unforgettable African Adventure: Exceptional Experience with Indigo Safaris
We had an outstanding experience with Indigo Safaris! Kerry crafted our Kenyan trip to perfection, tailoring every detail to our preferences. Our adventure included game drives through Masai Mara, Nairobi National Park, Amboseli, and Tsavo West. In the middle of our journey, Kerry seamlessly arranged a visit to my aunt who lives outside of Nairobi. Kerry's advice was invaluable, particularly her suggestion to visit Lake Naivasha, which turned out to be an incredibly unique and worthwhile stop.
Every lodge we stayed at was exceptional, offering perfect accommodations, delicious food, and warm, welcoming staff. We truly appreciated Kerry's reliable guidance, sound advice, and excellent recommendations throughout the trip.
Our guide and driver, Jimmy, was phenomenal. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him—he was funny, down-to-earth, and made us feel completely safe. His driving skills are exceptional (navigating Kenyan roads is no small feat, lol), and he consistently demonstrated professionalism and punctuality. Jimmy also amazed us with his impressive animal tracking abilities and extensive knowledge of the local wildlife and bird species.
Overall, I cannot recommend Indigo Safaris highly enough. Although it was a significant investment for us, the trip truly delivered incredible value. When I consider how much many American families spend on a Disney World vacation, I’m confident that our African adventure was worth every penny as a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
