Excellent Local Tanzania Tour Operator
We had an unforgettable trip through the famous Serengeti and Ngorongoro in Tanzania. We had decided to do the 5 days in the 2 areas which share the same ecosystem to minimize on the drives as well as maximize the relaxation aspect of the trip. As advised by Amos our trip designer and owner Migration Venture Africa it turned out to be the best trip of our lives.
Our guide Peter made the trip enjoyable as he was not in a rush. He took us to some the isolated sections of the vast Serengeti, far from other vehicles and we had great experience. In the Ngorongoro it was not possible to avoid the crowds but it was still fun as this was the closing after an epic three days of exploring Seregeti. It was excellent way to spend early summer vacation in Tanzania with a great locally operated tour company.
Exceptional
We did the half day sandwich harbour tour and it was beautiful. It was windy and cold but our tour guide(Froggy) made sure we had the full experience.

Luke was our super hero getting up AND down Big Daddy sand dune!
Our tour took us safely to all of the main attractions across southwest Namibia in 5 days and 4 nights. Hotel accomodations were super and food was good too. We even were treated to eating kudu and oryx..I recommend the oryx. Climbing Big Daddy was steeper and harder ( because it is loose sand up to mid shins in places) than we expected. I am 77 and husband is 79 yrs old..Luke was a champ at supporting my balance on steep edges and literally hooked one of us on each arm to shuffle down small sand avalanch we created to drop 375 meters to desert floor. BTW..we are flatlanders and nowhere was it posted that the base of these sand dunes is already at 6600 ft..ad you are ckimbing to 7000 ft..that's at elevation where we lice in Texas!! Namibia is decieving in that way..so be prepared. Our guide in Sandwich was Froggy and he took us on a ride on sand dunes in 4 wheel drive airconditioned vehicle all over! His skills were incredible and had a great personality to match..our favorite part was the rush from doing "zero gravity"..great fun. The guides took great care to keep searching for thise flamingos which were finally spotted out on the water...Luke always had an eye out for animals along our drives..so was really quite a safari seeing kudu, oryx, giraffe, wildabeast, wild guinea, 25,000 seals,and jackal. Would highly recommend this tour company to all!

The perfect birthday trip thanks to Captain Léo
Having had the opportunity to travel to 25 countries, I decided for the first time to go through an agency to organise my trip. Because of a lack of time, due to professional and personal commitments, I wanted to take this task off my hands.
I have to admit that after so many mistakes during the organisation, I almost didn't want to come to Namibia any more. I was very worried and tired of having had to invest so much time in the organisation, even though I had paid for a service.
Luckily, Léonard was my guide. I really felt like I'd picked the right number in the lottery. Thanks to him, and I'd like to thank him very much, I was finally able to relax and experience the trip I'd dreamed of taking. Right from the start, he took great care of me.
He's very observant and a good listener, and was very quick to spot what we liked and didn't like. We always had snacks and drinks to suit our tastes.
He's not one of those guides who just drops you off and picks you up once the tour/activity is over. He took part in all the visits/activities he was able to do with us. One of the best things about him (and there are several) is that he seems to be discovering the place for the first time. He's not bored by the riches his country has to offer. It's so nice to have a cheerful guide, who continues to immortalise places and moments and who plays a big part in getting you photos worthy of a professional 😊
He experienced things intensely, sometimes more than we did. For example, on our first day of Safari in Etosha Park, he was disappointed that we hadn't seen more animals. We had stars in our eyes at having had the chance and privilege to see giraffes, elephants, a lioness, zebras... He also readapted the timetable on days 3 and 4 to give us even more of a chance to see animals we hadn't yet seen. Luckily he has a good eye (not like BIG EYES 😳 - private joke) and knows how to spot animals from very far away. Without him, we would have missed a lot of them.
He's always looking for ways to give you great, unforgettable experiences, even when it's out of his hands (wildlife is unpredictable and animals are not at our disposal).
Léo constantly readapted the programme (while keeping to what was planned) so that we could make the most of it and so that it suited our desires. He was also able to give us space when we wanted it (not always easy for introverts or people who are used to travelling alone to be with a guide).
Léo is a beautiful person, with a beautiful soul, always looking for something better, always willing to share his knowledge if you ask him to.
I really felt like I was travelling with a friend, who luckily had a sense of humour. For me, a day without laughter is a day lost. There wasn't a single day when we didn't share a laugh, and that felt really good. We all shared the same delusions as if we'd been friends for a long time.
It's also lucky that we have the same taste in music and that he's open to listening to new sounds (I was surprised to find that he had downloaded albums of singers I love so that we could listen to them during the journey).
The restaurants were always carefully chosen. And he sometimes changed his original plans, to please us even more and surprise us.
We had the opportunity to eat in some very nice places where the food was good.
Thank you Captain Veggies for these moments of sharing, for discovering your country and for your kindness. You made my trip pleasant and soothing.
I'll remember my birthday trip and all the moments we shared for a long time.
Namibia really is an extraordinary country, with varied landscapes, each more beautiful than the last, and lovely locals (which is not the case everywhere, believe me).
As we agreed, we'll keep in touch and share our travels...
See you soon - From Strong Girl 💪🏼

It really was an incredible country but what made this trip unforgettable was clearly our guide Leo
Namibia has a lot to offer. It's really an incredible country with diverses and varied landscapes). One of best countries I've seem in my life (and I travelled a lot).
But what made this trip unforgettable was
clearly our guide Leonard
I was not motivated to come to Namibia at first.
I did not have too much expectation on this trip because I didn't choose the destination and we also have encountered some difficulties with the travel organization.
We would not have experienced this journey the same way without Leonard.
He made us discover this country in the best way.
He was more than a guide, he became a travel companion (the 3rd person of our duo).
Shy at first, he quickly adapted to us, with his kindness, his sense of humor (he aligned his sense of humor with ours) and his willingness to always want to do his best for us to enjoy our trip.
He always cared about our comfort and mood. He was considerate and did everything to make us discover his country in the best possible way to enjoy it, even if it means getting up early to take advantage of the places and avoid other tourists.
He was not just a guide who drives us and waits for us to finish. He was a leader and he was very patient. He did everything with us: eating with us, climbing the dunes with us, riding a quad with us, laughing with us, taking pictures with us, visiting places with us, making fun of us, taking us to places that were not necessarily on the program but which he identified as our centers of interest.
He caught up with the bad organization and gave us the best recommendations.
We left on two but clearly we enjoyed this trip on three. It made this trip more fun, more enjoyable, more comfortable, more beautiful. He cared about our safety, making sure we ate 3 meals a day and slept well😂😂
He really has a good heart and we could see that he carried a real passion for his job.
The language barrier was complicated (I am French with a basic level of English) but he was patient with our language difficulties.
To conclude, what we can say and remember about Leonard: he is attentive, passionate about his job that he masters very well, persistent and determined to make us discover more and more, especially during the Safaris where he never let go, always wanted us to see as many animals as possible (with a top view to reflect the animals on long and fast distances).
Thank you again Leo for this trip, I am really grateful and I hope to be able to see you again :)
