Careful and accurate support towards and during a magnificant journey
5/5

The services as offered by Tailor Made Safaris are in one word 'excellent'. From the first contact on we have experienced transparant communications and such good recommendations for our trip to South Africa. The travel guide that arrived at our home -on forehand- was helpfull and reading the travel book made us curious to the upcoming experiences. The safari locations were well choosen and very nice. The suggestions of where to do the shopping well chosen. The organised game drives well planned and Joyful. Back home again, we think back of magnificant landscapes, amazing moments of watching animals and we are completely in love with the meercats after the meercat observation. Thank you so much!

TMS took care of everything and they couldn't have done it better
5/5

We discovered TMS on the vakantie beurs several years ago when it was a small company. By then Geert already stole our hearts with his way of thinking about a safari trip and how his company takes care of it. This year we finally made the trip as a honeymoon and it was better then we have expected. The preparation with e-mail with Jo was really nice, the self drive pack is excellent en the entire trip was as we have expected and better. We had an excenllent rental car and the book guided us trough the country passing Ithala, Mkhuze, Kosi Bay, Tembe, St. Lucia, Manyoni and Drakensbergen. All the accomadations where as expected, without any surprises. We saw the entire big 5 several times. We would advise anyone to book with TMS cause it feels like you are on a guided tour with all the privacy you like. Thank you very much and we will certainly use TMS again for a new trip.

Amazing tour
5/5

I cannot recommend this company highly enough, Rachael, our destination specialist, put together an awesome tour. She was very professional and answered every question promptly.
The whole tour was perfectly arranged. We were happy with our hire cars, all of our accommodation, the whole itinerary worked well for us

Unfortunately, we didn’t get to meet Rachael as she went on leave just before our tour started, but her colleague, Angela looked after us in the interim and greeted us in St. lucia. She also arranged a night drive, paid for by TMS, for us in lieu of a boat trip that was cancelled because of bad weather. We didn’t expect this, but much appreciated it.

The self-drive pack, with our own personal book, cell phone with Sth African sim card and the GPS and road atlas, is brilliant and made our journey so much easier.
If (when) we go back to South Africa, TMS will be our first contact. Thank you all so much for a wonderful experience

fifth time with tailor made safari's
5/5

This was our fifth time traveling to south africa with tailor made safari's

We went only for 2 weeks, so we wanted to minimaliize our traveling time from and to accommodations.
We booked for a combination of self drives en guided safari's. we wanted to have maximum time on safari's because we we're coming to photograph wildlife.

we first went to pilanesberg for self drive safaris, only a 2.5 hour drive from the airfield in johannesberg.
we stayed in Manyane a self catering lodge next to the gate of pilanesberg. pilanes berg is great for self drives.
there is al lot of wildlife and there is great scenery.

from there we went to mosetla in madikwe for guided safari's. we have been to alot of parks, but this is the best so far.
they can go offroad and there's good communication between the guides, so we saw predatores every day up and close.
mosetla is a great eco/bush lodge with a real bush feeling.

then we went back to pilanesberg for an couple days.
this was a great combination of self drive and guided, this combination is also great, to make the holiday not to expensive

Tailor made safari's planned and booked everything for us, on the base of our preference and wishes.
Al things were booked and planned perfectly, we recieved a self drive pack before our journey with a; mapbook, tomtom,southafrican simcard, and an nice book with all the details of our journey.
In the five years we have been traveling them, every journey we made was great en well organized. and every time we had a different program based on our wishes in combination with they're advise and expertise on self drive journey's in south africa.

we chose for a bigger car (RAV4) especialy if you go on a self drive safari a higher car is a big advantage.

Another amazing trip to South Africa!
5/5

This is the third time we booked our trip to South Africa with help from Tailor Made Safaris and it was great again! Al our wishes were fulfilled. The communication and service is fast and professional. A few weeks before the holiday we got our self drive book with al the information we needed to know. During our trip we visited the Drakensbergen, Manyoni game reserve, St Lucia, Hluhluwe-iMfolozi and Thanda Safaris. We saw a lot of animals and beautiful nature. The accommodations were great, food was great and the people were the best! In the future we hope to come back (again) to South Africa and of course we will do that with the help of Tailor Made Safaris once again :)

spectaculair and wonderful, amazing trip through a lovely country
5/5

this was our journey for our 25th wedding anniversary, with our 2 kids ( 23 and 20)
we make a wonderful trip and they were a good help in choosing this beautiful trip, piece by piece, everything discussed bij mail, so easy.
everything was well explained an well prepared, and you do an excursion than on a small scale, which makes your experience even more special.
my next trip is back at Tailor Made Safaris
Through our personal meetings in St. Lucia ( Angela ) en Tembe ( Geert ) make everything even more special.
This was a journey so well organized and so specially... you will never forget this again.
Thank you to let us see a wonderful, loving Cape Town and a small piece of South Africa, Tailor Made Safaris.

A safari even better than we hoped it would be!
5/5

We have made an unforgettable journey to Drakensberg and the Elephant Coast (South-Africa) with Trailor Made Safaris. We were really happy and satisfied with the support from Tailor Made Safaris in planning and designing our holidays. We used their good suggestions and tips where to go and what to do.
The package we received in advance (with cellphone, roadmap, gps etc) was very useful and the personal travel book contained a lot of information and advices. That made us even more eager to go.
All accommodations and their staff were really good, from B&B and tent to more luxurous lodges. The rangers at the game drives were very kind and knowledgable.
The personal care of the Tailor Made Safaris Team during the trip was fantastic. We are looking back to a wonderful experience with great sightings and we have met a lot of nice people.
South-Africa stole our hearts!

5/5

Custom made turned out to be super nice!
Although we had been informed by our friends that Tailor Made Safari offers an amazing quality, they kept surprising us and continued to perform well above our expectations. Communication even during the trip was superb. Especially the travelpack with GPS, telephone etc. that was sent home in advance is fantastic. The book that was delivered was a really useful travel guide. The quality and service they promise, they deliver!
