Personable, White Glove Service with Amazing Communication
5/5


We found Phillip through safari bookings.com and glad we did! He called us personally on What's App app and immediately his warm personality and true love for the business and wildlife is second to none. My husband and I wanted to plan 1 year in advance and Sabi Sands was our destination of choice. Phillip quickly got a feel for what we wanted (we wanted a bit of luxury and an amazing wildlife sighting experience). We also wanted to go to Mauritius after our safari and he planned the resort there as well. Once we got our quote including all transfers and flights required, we decided to add our friends to the trip! A quick call to Phillip and he responded promptly with accommodations for them as well! During the year that we had the trip planned, Phillip called us regularly to check in and let us know any updates and we added in golf and other tours to our agenda. The accommodations Phillip recommended were luxury and secluded even prior to getting to our safari! The safari accommodations were a 12 out of 10. All inclusive 3 meals a day and 2 trips in the bush daily for animal sightings! The staff and meals were top notch and it was one of the best experiences of our lives! For this first time trip in Africa and within our budget, we couldn't have asked for anything better. We made some changes on the fly while in the country and Phillip communicated with us and the vendors regularly. The tailored app with tips and info on each step of the journey was invaluable. Book your trip with African Wildlife Plains and you will not regret it.

Perfect organisation with true gems
5/5

Philip is an incredible agent and I am very grateful we found him! I needed to plan at the last minute (only 8 weeks in advance) a tour for my parents to visit vic falls followed by an authentic safari experience in the bush. It would have been the first time in Africa for my parents, who don’t speak perfect English, so I requested that all transfers and flights were perfectly organised to avoid surprises that could have been worsened by the language barrier. Philip found the best accommodations in line with our budget and prepared an unforgettable experience. He gave us access to a tailored app with tips and info on each step of the journey, and checked constantly during the vacation. One thing to remark, is that the safari lodges he would propose you are not the commercial and overcrowded ones, but little gems in the bush with drives with maximum 6 people on board and top of the game rangers. Would recommend to anyone planning a trip to Southern Africa.

Thoughtful
5/5

We contacted Phillip about 2-3 months before we wanted to go on our trip, realizing that it was super late to try and organize something like this. He responded to my email within 2 hours and by the next day already had multiple options available to us. He called us multiple times to go over the options with us, and to try and find out what exactly we were looking for. By the end of the week he had everything booked for us for the whole trip, with the only thing we had to purchase was our airfare from the USA.

On the lead up to the trip he made sure to reach out to us more than once to ensure us that everything was lining up. We landed in South Africa and were immediately met by a guide who brought us directly to our transfer driver. From start to finish in our trip we never had to worry about our transfers or getting to the places we needed to be on time because Phillip did it all for us!

The lodges we stayed at were amazing, and we got to see the Big 5 in its entirety on day 1 on our game drives. During our time in South Africa it was also my wife's birthday, and Phillip had special surprises waiting for her at every stop! A birthday cake at one, a private dinner at another, birthday cupcakes while we were on a game drive.

He went so far and above anything we ever expected, and I honestly can't recommend him enough. It never felt like he was selling something to us, it felt like he was planning something special for friends.

Phillip and his AWP is very customer oriented and finds best possibilities to consider these
