Excellent trip, spot on arranged to our wishes
5/5

From the very first contact we have been treated perfectly. No question or change was asked to much. Answering always within 12 hours of my emails. And all the arrangements suited perfectly to our needs. We gave a budget, a timeframe, what we wanted to see and do and kind of atmosphere we were looking for. Savannah Travel proposed right from the start a great trip with a lot of up-scale bed and breakfast like accommodations that we would never have found ourselves. The schedule and the atmosphere of all the locations suited us very very well.
The recommendations for things to do we received from Savannah travel or the guesthouses, and which we followed were all excellent. We didn't come to spot the big five but to taste South Africa, its people, culture, nature, food and of course the wines. And we did all of that. we even saw 4 of the big five which was a nice 'extra'. It was a trip to remember forever and would recommend Tanja from Savannah Travel to everyone.

Uncomplicated, professional, effective and friendly!
5/5

After a bad experience with another safari tour provider a friend recommended african savanna travel. We contacted Tanja and she planed our stay very quickly and detailed. She always had a satisfying answer for our questions and she always answered the emails timely.
At our arrival she organized somebody to come to our hotel and explain us the tour and give us some advices. It was very helpful.
We enjoyed the two weeks in Namibia very much and there were no problems at all with the prebookings (as we heard from other tourists). Our highlights were the Kalahari Anib Camp Site and the Desert Breeze Lodge. Thank you very much! I will definitely recommend you and if I go back to africa I will use your services again.

An unforgettable holiday South Africa and Mozambique thanks to the excellent service of Tanja
5/5

Everything was very well organized, till all small details. We didn't have to worry about anything.
We were with 6 people (family) to celebrate our wedding anniversary. And it was great.
We had two three days safari's at two different places in South-Africa. Very beautiful scenery and we have seen a lot of
animals. The lodges were well chosen and very pleasant. After that we had a beach holiday in Mozambique at a
stunning lodge on Benguera.
All in all a super holiday. Thanks again to Tanja for organising everything so perfect for us.

With 6 people we have made an unforgettable trip through Botswana thanks to Tanja.
We were with 4x4 vehicles and roof tent on the way and stayed several times in Lodgen.
All wishes of us were implemented and organized.
On our 3 week trips Tanja has made all reservations and bookings reliably. The proposed goals also impressed us deeply.

Thank you for your support

Helpful beyond belief! Tanja planned a once-in-a-lifetime trip for us.
5/5

Cannot recommend African Savanna Travel highly enough! I interviewed several travel providers before going with Tanja and the difference in service was night and day. She listened carefully to our needs without trying to upsell us. We had a very ambitious itinerary planned, and Tanja went out of her way to ensure the logistics—from dietary restrictions to several in-country transfers—went smoothly. Her hotel recommendations were excellent. We were thrilled with both the quality and price of the accommodations. During the safari, she was in constant touch to make sure things were going smoothly and gladly stepped in when we needed help. Truly a great travel partner!

Tanja, our South Africa expert was superb. She put together a brilliant three week package.
5/5

Everything was perfect from start to finish. We had a very limited budget but Tanja our South Africa expert provided all that we asked for and more. She was efficient, listened to our comments and requests and gave us more than we could have expected. The personal recommendations added to it greatly and she even managed to meet up with us to say hello. I would have no hesitation in recommending her and this company.

African Savanna Travel is professionality, humanity and dedication. We will repeat.
5/5

All started more than one year ago when I exchanged my first e-mail with Tanja Joubert, from African Savanna Travel. From that moment I knew she should be the one to organize our trip. She understood perfectly what we were looking for.

I had a rough idea about the route we wanted to follow, but it improved a lot with Tanja advise. All the campsites/lodges she chose for us were excellent. Tanja has a great knowledge about the area, so she can advise very well on what one will find once in the place and trace a perfect route.
She is very professional and answers the emails daily. We were also lucky enough to meet her in Johannesburg during the first day of our trip, and she is a lovely person.

Our trip consisted of three weeks in 4x4 with roof tents in Botswana. Tanja took care of all the bookings (car, fees, camps, guide, activities ...) so we didn't have to worry about anything. In addition she was advising us during our entire stay, so when we had any problem/question it was solved quickly and smoothly.
In summary, a wonderful trip. Totally recommended. We have just returned and we are already thinking about repeating. Thank you Tanja!

The Ultimate Hakuna Matata Feeling!
5/5

For the third time in a row we had our Africa family holidays organized by Tanja Joubert, our trusted and seasoned travel agent for South-Africa and Africa.
She composed a wonderful experience for us starting in Durban, onto the North of Botswana, onto Zambia and topped off in Mozambique at the beach. 4 totally different areas, all 4 very special.
Tanja takes care of everything leaving us with nothing else than the ultimate “Hakuna Matata Feeling’’! Tickets, pick-ups, reservations: all were organised and prepared in detail, we had nothing to worry about. Especially her personal email and WhatsApp communication around logistics every time we had to move from the one place to the other was highly appreciated. She was virtually with us all the time, taking care of everything you don’t want to be bothered with when on holiday; she is simply the best!
