Amazing adventure perfect team
5/5

We had a 5 days safari with Fondness Vacations. Salomon, the tour guide was amazing, he knew everything about animals and he explained us everything in a very clear way. It was emotional to understand how animals behave and act among them. Stephen managed the organization of the tour very well and allowed us to visit all the thee parks we wanted to visit and arranging all the transport for us. It is a very suggested experience and with this tour organization everything is really well managed. We were touring the park and sleeping in different camps. The chef that was cooking for us made us taste very delicious dishes. Highly recommended!!

Fondness Vacations offer excellent service! Really recommended
5/5

The safari was perfect from the beginning to the end, and Stephen, the tour operator cared about every single details and made us feel always welcomed. We had an amazing guide, Salomon, who was incredibly expert, he know exactly where to go to find animals and he always entertained us with amazing notions on the animals on the nature of the parks. The tent camp were ok, I just suggest to bring warm clothes if you are going to Ngorongoro as in the night is gonna be a bit cold. Te food was also really good, we had a private chef who cooked for us breakfast, lunch and dinner, and he put a lot of passion in preparing our dishes. I really recommend this company because your safari will be unforgettable and they will not make you miss anything!

Fantastic experience! Totally recommend it!
5/5


We did a safari with Fondness Vacation as two Italian couples — and it was amazing! Malaki, our driver, knew exactly where to go and helped us spot so much wildlife, even rhinos. Super professional and always on time. Abdul, our guide, spoke great Italian and was full of interesting facts, always enthusiastic. We shared all meals with them, which made the trip even more fun. The mix of lodges and tented camps was just right. Big thanks to Stephen for checking in daily. Totally recommend it!

Exceptional safari with passionate guides and percect service
5/5

We are a group of four people from Italy — two couples.
From the very beginning, the service was outstanding. Upon arrival and departure, we received thoughtful gifts, which we truly appreciated.

Thanks to our driver Malaki deep knowledge of the land and animal behavior, we were able to spot nearly all the wildlife — even rhinos! Malaki always knew the right spots and showed great intuition throughout the drives. He was also always punctual, respectful, and very professional, contributing hugely to the success of the trip.

Our guide, Abdul, who speaks Italian very well, was incredibly well-informed about the savannah’s fauna. His deep passion for this job was clear in every explanation and interaction. His enthusiasm made every moment more engaging and educational.

We shared breakfast, lunch and dinner with both of them every day, making the experience even more personal and enjoyable.

The safari we arranged before arrival included a variety of accommodations, giving us the chance to experience both luxury lodges and more authentic tented camps — a perfect balance of comfort and adventure.

A special mention goes to Stephen the head of the agency, who contacted us every evening via WhatsApp to check in and make sure everything was going well and that we were happy with the day.

I highly recommend this experience with Fondness Vacation to anyone!

Professional tour operater, whole journey good communication, kind and care giving.
5/5

Amazing Safari, everything was well arranged and a really fun group!

Our driver/tourguide Peter did a perfect job, really professional, kind and funny. The included food cooked by Pascal was really delicious.

During the safari we had good communication with the touroperator and everything was really smooth from beginnen to the end.

We booked the budget safari with the public camping tents. Do not expect too much of the accomodation but it didn’t influence the safari trip. We saw the big 5 and much more! So best value for money you can get!
