Extraordinary Service!
Erica, Joanne and Kasigo ,
Thank you so much for your hard work.
Without your efforts on getting me the VISA, this extraordinary, memorable for a life time trip would have never happened!
You guys didn't just do you bit, but went above and beyond. We cannot thank you enough.
The safari itself was so well managed and planned , we have had the rear chance to see mating Lions, elephants in musth, family dynamics of a pride, hearing the roars of the pride just outside our tents, close encounters with hippos, zebra crossings ( African style - where a herd of Zebras are actually crossing ), a herd if 35 elephants joining more elephants, experiencing the calm side of a huge male buffalo up close, Hyenas scavenging during the night safaris, beautiful sunrise, exquisite sunsets and the extraordinary night sky where one can actually see one of the Magellanic clouds.
There is so much to write, but more importantly, I again thank you for making it happen and using your contacts and expertise in helping us to get the visa.
Thanks a Million!
Lots of love
Adi

Absolutely the best!
I was on Safari for 3 months with 10 different operators and agents. None of them can compare to what Safari Specialists did for us. Lisa was the best right from the start in customizing our trip. We had 3 separate parts to out adventure with them. She always kept us up to date and if she wasn't around Erica stepped in and took care of things. We were greeted at the airport in Maun and presented with information & guide books that no one else provided. When we had problems Lisa was always there and stood up for us and kept us constantly informed. We even received a big refund on one of the Safaris when there were major problems. I have never written a review before but Lisa was so good that I had to write this. I highly recommend Safari Specialists to anyone for any trip. I just wish they were in Tanzania & Kenya as well. Thanks Lisa.

5-star safari operator! Simply the best!
We just enjoyed our second safari organized by safari specialists!
In short terms: absolutely perfect in every way! Again!
Our agent was Nadine (again) and like on our first trip she excelled again! Every question was answered in no time, she made suggestions and recommendations that were spot-on.
Her recommendations concerning the camps were on the money! We chose Tau Pan, Lagoon and Shinde. All of them were first class.
All of her bookings for lodging, activities and flights were exceptional and proceeded without any issues.
We were greeted at the airport on the way in and way out which made us feel as being part of the “family”.
We will definitely use their service again on the next trip!
Thanks again!

Excellent experience from start to finish!
I was a bit apprehensive about planning a trip with any company- it's always hard to know who is on the other end, where your money is going, etc. My fears were laid to rest once I started working with Nadine from Safari Specialists. Nadine helped us plan a trip of a lifetime! She worked within our budget and gave us recommendations based on her own travel experiences. Nadine went above and beyond to answer any and all questions we had - her answers were extremely detailed and we felt 100% confident in our decisions because of this. During the planning process and the trip we had the opportunity to interact with other people from Safari Specialists as well. Each person had the same level of professionalism and knowledge that Nadine did. The end result is our trip was perfectly planned with no detail overlooked. The name is appropriate- they are the Safari Specialists!

Definitely recommendable
First experience with Safari Specialists and definitely not the last. We can only say: go for it, those guys know what they are talking about. Our contact was Joanne, who was very friendly, efficient and professional.She's very quick in answering emails and was also very helpful when we had to choose the different lodges ( we specifically asked for areas with lots of predators ). We were thrilled about our 7 nights trip to the delta, our highlight being Chitabe Lediba for it's wildlife, well appointed tents and relaxed atmosphere. Flights in between camps were very well organized too.All in all very positive!
