Wild Africa Travel Company for Ovavango Delta experience
Wild Africa Travel Company suggested Oddballs Camp for our trip to the Okavango in Botswana. We wanted to be among the animals and away from the sounds of vehicles and this was perfect for us - a couple in our early 60s. Oddballs Camp was great and the staff fantastic. We enjoyed great meals with the other guests. The accommodation felt like we were in Africa and was more than adequate for our bush experience. We chose to camp out two nights, reaching the camp spot by mokoro, with just our guide and one assistant. Magic! When we weren't doing walks with our guide (sometimes for four hours) identifying footprints, poo, animals and learning about animal behaviour, we were at the camp enjoying cups of tea, hot showers to wash the dust off and watching animals come to the water. It was an ongoing wildlife documentary! We want to do it again.

Great Value for Money
Robert is based in Australia and will find you exactly what you want. This tour was about $500 a day which is really cheap for Africa. The accommodation was terrific and the guides great. The compromise was that there were long days on the African road, and some of the lodges were off the beaten track. Our group had a lot of fun and ticked off most of the animals. In particular, the African Tour Company he used for this trip, Jenman, were great when we managed to miss the plane at the start of the tour, catching up with everyone and seeing Victoria Falls the next day!
Professional, friendly and very helpful in organise a trip of a lifetime
After being delayed twice due to COVID19, I was finally able to take the tour in September 2022.
The 2 year wait was well worth it, in fact it exceeded my expectations.
Robert from Wild Africa kept me informed throughout, right from the initial enquiry for the booking till just before departure.
My tour was a 2 week East Africa migration tour travelling through both Kenya and Tanzania.
The tour guides/drivers were all well informed, friendly and very professional, which made the experience so much more enjoyable.
Accommodation was amazing, very comfortable with professional and friendly staff.
The only complaint I would have is the lack of traditional local food served at the dinner / buffet. I would have loved to try as much of the local food as possible.
I was thoroughly enthralled by the abundant wildlife throughout the journey, no complaints from me in that respects.
This was the main reason to take the trip, to see and capture some amazing pictures of the wildlife and in that, it certainly didn't disappoint.
I would recommend everybody to take a safari trip into Africa as a "must do" item everyone should experience at least once.
For me, I may well be back for more in the future......who knows?

Professional, efficient and all we could ask for.
The tour was great. Mukambi in Kafue was all you would imagine a game lodge would be like and we have been to quite a few in other parts of Africa. The Fig Tree lodge was also excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. Our guide was very knowledgeable and happy to impart that knowledge. Food was excellent. Our trip to Kruger was also great and all the bookings went without a hitch.

Everything Wild Africa organised was flaunt less
What a fantastic company to organise our 18 day trip to Africa.
They listened to what we wanted and offered suggestions, Robert was quick to answer any questions and nothing was ever a problem. Our first chat over the phone was for over 45 minutes for Robert to find out exactly what we wanted from our trip.
Our entire trip was amazing and we couldn’t pick one part that was better than the next, every day was prefect.
We seen the big 5, accomodation was amazing, all of our day trips where 1st class
I would highly recommend Wild Africa and I will definitely be using them again for our next trip to Africa

Wild Africa planned an excellent trip for us, responding promptly to all questions and changes.
The planning takes time and lots of email exchanges, but communication was always prompt and helpful. The whole trip, over 18 days, and visiting Victoria Falls, four wildlife camps and touring the Garden Route went without a hitch. The people involved throughout were always on time, very friendly and always available to help in any way. We saw an amazing number and variety of animals and birds, and consider this to have been the best trip we've ever done.

Well organised and enjoyable
Very good service and well organised tour. Loved the gorilla experience and seeing a lot of the country by car. Lots of driving but well worth it. Our guide was very approachable and took care of our needs perfectly. He was knowledgeable and great have as our guide.

One month small group safari tour to Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania.
The communication and service provided by Rob and staff at Wild Africa Travel Company were beyond expectations. The on ground safari tour operators in Kenya and Tanzania were highly skilled, good natured and good fun making our trip memorable. On the Uganda leg the driver was well organised which meant our gorilla and chimpanzee experiences were fantastic.

Tailored a trip that provided us with great experiences and met all our needs.
Lines of communication were always open and we were able to tailor a trip that incorporated all that we wanted and more. The safari tours were fantastic because of the knowledge and genuine warmth of the safari guides. Everything we hoped for was met and the trip proceeded smoothly and without incident.
