Kind, professional, excellent planner with exceptional client service skills!
Coming back to Pembury Tours [Tammy H] to help plan our second African safari (S Africa 11 years ago; Kenya this trip) was the best decision! I shared places I was curious about, which she then turned into an elevated itinerary and travel experience with terrific suggestions, too. Camps were held for us while we decided and settled upon the most expansive 10-day adventure we could fit in! 25th wedding anniversary surprises were awaiting us at every turn, and each were heartwarming and kind gestures. Great food and Kenyan hospitality was amazing, overall. Guided airport pick up and check-in was worth gold. Pre, during and post holiday communication was excellent!!! What a dream trip we experienced… thank you!! (A local company helped with city guides and one camp transfer, which was great … I strongly recommend air travel vs ground transfer where possible as one drive between camps was too long.)

Pembury tours = No.1
We spent two amazing weeks in Africa. We visited South Africa (Sabi Sand, Cape Town), Victoria Falls and Botswana (Chobe, Okavango). This was our fourth time in Africa, but this was our most amazing trip so far.
All thanks to Pembury tours, specifically Gail Davis. When choosing an agency, we approached several from Africa, but from the beginning the communication with Gail was at a high level. She was able to match our requirements to the places we wanted to see. She proposed an optimal itinerary, which we implemented without any problems. We also communicated with each other during the trip without unnecessary delay. We always received answers in a timely manner. The trip was fantastically prepared, so I can't even mention any potential problems. Everything worked perfectly. Thank you again Gail. I will look forward to our next trips to Africa.

Experience Matters
Heidi Bedford curated our trip for my group of six friends whom come from widely disparate locations across the world. While we were able to outline what our goals in the beginning of our interaction with Pembury, it was Heidi's experience that made a good trip - GREAT!
She planned all the details for the 3+ week African experience, allowing us to enjoy traveling without the typical problems associated with multiple flights across multiple countries. Even when there were complications on a weekend, Heidi came through and straightened things out.
The recommended tour operators (of which there were many) each came through with outstanding guides, providing personalized service and outstanding adventures - from game preserves in the bush; to nature in Cape Town's biodiversity; to history in the capital and finally to enjoying wine country.
Outstanding!

Our Africa Adventure
Our tour with Pembury tours was customized for our group of 6.
It was absolutely perfect from being picked up at the airports, the tour guides (who were the best), the safaris we went on, the food (delicious) and the accommodations.
Any last minute additions were handled with ease by Heidi (A+)
We cough ave asked for a better adventure!

Pembury Tours is the best!
We can't thank Pembury tours enough for putting together such an incredible trip for us to Kruger Park from the US. Anya was amazing and I would ask for her by name. She guided us through the process and her recommendations were all 5 star. We were met at the gate and whisked though customs before meeting the driver. From the on, every step of the way was covered. No issues with transfers or lodging and the lodges/safaris they picked out for us were top notch. We will use them again in the future!

Safari Planning at its Finest
We recently returned from a wonderful safari in Botswana (Chobe, Savute and Moremi) arranged by Kerry at Pembury Tours, and the whole experience could not have been better. Kerry handled everything with care and attention to detail, from flights and transfers to lodges and guiding. We needed family tents with single occupancy, which isn’t always easy to arrange, but she found the perfect solution for us.
The safari itself was a joy — beautiful lodges, excellent food, and truly outstanding guides who made every game drive exciting and memorable. Every part of the trip ran smoothly, and it was exactly the right balance of comfort and adventure.
This was not my first time working with Kerry, and she has been consistently excellent over several safaris. She knows the destinations and lodges so well, always listens to what we want, and goes out of her way to make the experience special. I would not hesitate to recommend Kerry and Pembury Tours to anyone planning an African safari.

Super helpful and supported us to plan the most epic trip.
My husband and I just got back from our amazing honeymoon trip in South Africa. It was incredible, from the safari and garden route to Cape Town. We had the best time.
We had lots of support from Tammy Harding at Pembury tours, I believe part of the reason the trip was so good, is because it was so well organised. She was very patient with any changes or requests from us ahead of the trip and super responsive with us before and during our trip.
All of the tours and activities went smoothly and we had a great time, we couldn’t fault the operators at all.
We particularly liked the itinerary app and all the printed docs on our arrival to make it easy for us to track our fully packed schedule for the 2 weeks.
If I could plan every trip like that I would!
We also appreciated the little things such as having meet and greet on our arrival and little notes for operators so they knew it was our honeymoon. Those little touches made us feel like VIPs.
I would 100% recommend Tammy and Pembury to anyone looking for an authentic experience in this beautiful country.
Thanks so much, Ali & Conor.

perfectly well planned and excellent service
Everything was perfectly planned – from the seamless transportation to the amazing experiences along the way.
Arathusa was absolutely unforgettable, and we truly enjoyed every moment there. Also, our guide in Cape Town was fantastic – knowledgeable, friendly, and took us everywhere we wanted to go.
We’re really grateful for all the effort you put into making this such a special and smooth experience.
We’re already thinking about our next adventure, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to you when the time comes!

Perfect in every way
As a Solo over 60 female traveler it can be hard to balance adventure with safety. Tammy at Pembury nailed it. Every detail of the trip was personally designed for MY taste exclusively. She put in a huge effort to get me to everywhere I wanted and to see and do everything I dreamed of and not once did I feel unsafe. She kept it in my price range and found top choices at excellent value for money. She even check in with me during the trip and after. Ten stars for service

Southern Africa trip
We just came back from the 16-day trip, visiting S. Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Eswatini with a group of 15 people. All our time was meticulously thought of, the transfers were seamless, all the hotels and restaurants A+ and every day provided beautiful views, emotions and excitement! We are very grateful to Kerry and her team from Pembury Tours for permitting us to live this African experience and we’re looking forward to come back for more!
