Reviews
my experience with wild Africa
Robert could not have been more helpful helping me to select and arrange my trip. Promo with quotes and all information I needed to know for my trip. Nothing was too much trouble. My first flight was cancelled due to a technical problem with the plane. I emailed Robert to find out what to do and he went above and beyond to rearrange my trip to a day later. All worked out great including motswari letting me spend one night in giegers camp at no extra cost. When I arrived at motswari I was told I was staying at giegers camp for the duration of my stay at no extra cost which overwhelmed me. The staff at Geiger's were excellent as well,I was treated very very well. I will without question recommend wild Africa and Robert to anyone who desires a trip to Africa.

Robert Francis from Wild Africa was very professional in organising our amazing trip.
Every aspect of our trip was excellent, all communication with Robert Francis was prompt and accurate. Whilst on our trip all transfers, tours, flights, ran like clockwork. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our experiences in Africa, we will definitely be going back and will definitely be using Wild Africa Travel Company again.

Highly Recommend Wild Africa
I have recently returned from a fantastic 5 week adventure in southern Africa which was my first time on the African continent.
My trip was approximately 50% self planned/managed and 50% through Robert at Wild Africa,
All my dealings with Robert were top notch. He was highly professional, a good communicator and provided excellent documentation.
Robert recommended Motswari in the Timbavati as one of my safari stays and this was a brilliant recommendation.
I would happily use Robert again and recommend him most highly.

9 day Kruger Safaris and 4 days Victoria Falls
Wild Africa was extremely professional when organising our safari. Very knowledgeable about all aspects of the safari and Africa. All of the safari camps in Kruger were amazing in particular Rhino Walking Safaris and Honey Guided Tented Safaris except Rhino Post-the Guide Joey was rude and bagged other camps, there was no hot water and we were charged for our welcome drinks and light lunch when we got there. Due to the length of time in stopovers I would suggest staying the night rather than pushing ones self. Also Victoria Falls Safari Lodge is amazing. Would recommend at Victoria Falls "Walk with Lions, Elephant Ride and Guided tour of the Falls". Give helicopter ride a miss as not worth the money and no ear muffs. Also only book on Helicopters with 4 passengers. Would travel again with Wild Africa in a heart beat.
Tanzanian Safari
Communication was excellent. We met the tour representative at the beginning and the end of our tour. Our guide was experienced and had excellent knowledge and was friendly. The tour lived up to our expectations and more and the visits to both the Hadzabe tribe and the Masai tribe were wonderful. We also enjoyed the visit to the Ngorongoro Crater especially. Our add-on to Victoria Falls was spectacular.

Okavango and Victoria Falls Safari
Robert at Wild Africa booked our itinerary for us. Everything they arranged took place like clock work. They booked internal flights, transfers to and from hotels, border crossings and the actual safari through the Game reserves of Botswana and Okovango Delta. They advised us on accomodation options and where to stay. Their dealings prior to the trip were very professional and the responses and service they gave was prompt and efficient. Our trip was fantastic and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Wild Africa in assisting with putting together another itinerary.
Excellent service and loved our trip
Robert was extremely helpful over email as well as over a few skype conversations. We stayed at Umlani Bushcamp in the Timbavati South Africa (Kruger area). It was the best experience of our lives and we saw all the wildlife you could have ever hoped to see up close.
Highly recommended tour operator, all of our transfers were on time and we had no issues at all.

Victoria falls and Hwange, 7 days in December 2014. Loved it!
We went to Victoria falls and to Hwange on safari. Got in contact with Robert just 10 days before we wanted to go and he did a great work with planning our trip! Quick replies, listened to all our needs and he was able to answer all our questions. Even though we had got all the information needed I was so nervous to see how the trip would turn out. We had nothing to worry about! Great accommodation and great schedule with things to do, time to relax and time to explore the areas ourselves. The safari tours were great, private drivers, that made us able to decide what we would prefer to see and where we wanted to go. Perfect! Highlight were the lion family of four, and the hundreds of elephants that crossed our way. I have nothing to complain about, from the start with contact with Robert to how the vacation turned out!

Made our dreams come true.
Wild Africa and Robert Francis was amazing from the moment that we were enquiring about Africa. Robert went above and beyond to create a tour that would suit the time we were and what we wanted to get out of Africa, which was to see Africa and experience the way they live, their lifestyle and of course the animals. Robert always put the effort in to communicate and let us know how the booking was coming along and always kept in contact with us, even the day of the flight out of Australia their were delays with the flights which he notified us off. The safari itself was the best adventure that we have ever been on and our dreams had come true. Our tour guides were amazing throughout the trip and felt safe all the way through our trip. The extra money that we spent staying in hotel was so worth it as they were beautiful and the food was amazing. I would suggest to anyone not to give this tour company a miss as you will missing out on an amazing adventure of a life time.

Exellent on all fronts, loved the attention to detail and itinerary that covered diverse topography
We were impressed with the safari and it surpassed our expectations - all the staff we interacted with were outstanding. One detail we should mention is that the Vintage Africa vehicles - which were alarmingly NOT 4 wheel drive considering the terrain we were in - were outdated and in poor repair. Our vehicle broke down twice, the roof blew open and the windshield wipers didn't work in the pouring rain. WE had to request a replacement vehicle as it was unsafe. Grumeti was of a far higher standard.
