Patient!!
Cearl and her team helped us for a leg of our trip to Africa and I couldn’t be more grateful for her expertise and patience and kindness as we navigated many options and decisions! She was always so responsive and friendly to work with!

Organized
Candis curated a wonderful experience for us that started with four nights in Cape Town, SA. A driver was waiting for us at the airport despite a delayed arrival. We spent two days visiting wineries and a third exploring the city.
The next stop was Kruger National Park and the Hoyo Hoyo lodge which consisted of only six huts and twelve guests. Despite arriving in a chilly rain, the welcome was warm. Over three days, we completed six game drives and saw four of the big five. The staff was attentive, the food was beautifully presented and the property was very clean. The only negative is that the property is a bit dated and needs a refresh. Our guide, Morna, deserves a big thanks!
We then departed Kruger and flew to J-burg for a one night layover. We stayed at a charming property, the African Rock Hotel. The hotel is a renovated home in a gated community. It was an ideal selection for a one night layover.
The following morning, we flew to Victoria Falls for a three night stay at the Wallow Lodge, a new facility in a private game reserve. The accommodations were beautiful and very comfortable. Our only minor complaint is that we did not always enjoy the food offerings. Behki was our primary host and guide for the three days. He was outstanding and a pleasure to be with. In addition to visiting the Falls and touring the private game reserve, we did take the one day tour to Chobe National Park in Botswana which was another great recommendation from Candis.
We will be going back to Africa again and will certainly work with Candis and Safari.com. We had great comfort as the drivers were on time, the hotel and lodge reservations were secured, and we always felt comfortable.

Organized to perfection
We were a bit anxious about booking our Safari through an online agency, however, Safari.com turned out to be an excellent choice. They helped organize every step of our trip to South Africa. Everything went off as planned. The resort we stayed at was fabulous. All our connections went smoothly. Safari.com was easy to communicate with and I would highly recommend you using them to plan your trip.
Excellent tour!
Safari.com was an excellent operator for me. They arranged all of my Safari reservations, hotel transport and also provided other helpful advice for traveling within Africa. I highly recommend.

Very responsive to last minute requests and concerns
Leigh-Ann co-ordinated a visit of Livingston, Zambia for me, following a medical mission in Lusaka. Having never been there before, I left things in her ( as i now know) capable hands. She booked me into the Royal Livingston hotel , which was a beyond beautiful splurge. In fact, it was so fabulous that I decided to extend my stay for 2 nights at the last minute. Leigh- Ann responded immediately to my Whats app request and was able to get me the same reduced rate. I then discovered , after asking the front desk to extend my stay, that she arranged a rate that was more than half off.
She also arranged a beautiful river cruise on the African Queen , where I saw elephants tousling in the water, multiple hippos., and a crocodile. I toured the Victoria Falls, on both the Zambian and Zimbabwe side ( would highly recommend doing both) , and swam in the Devils Pool . I am in my 60’s and a must!
Thank you Leigh-Ann for co-ordinating such a memorable experience!
A thoughtful, highly organized operator who made every part of our Africa trip feel effortless.
Our experience with Safari.com was outstanding from start to finish. Communication was consistently clear, timely, and helpful, which made planning our trip feel effortless. Every detail of the itinerary was expertly arranged, from transfers to lodge coordination to making sure we always knew what to expect next. The value for money was excellent; we felt like we received a high quality, well curated experience without any stress or surprises. Most importantly, the tour itself was unforgettable, and we were able to fully enjoy the trip knowing everything behind the scenes was handled with care and professionalism. I would absolutely book with Safari.com again.

Exceptional
This is my 2nd review for safari.com. The first one was because we had a death in the family and they went above and beyond with helping us postpone our trip.
We finally went on our safari in South Africa and it was a DREAM. Everything was seamless from the flights to the transportation to our itinerary. Safari.com made everything stress free for us. All we had to do was show up.
We are now addicted to safari and will be using safari.com for years to come to plan more safaris for us

Dolan did a great job arranging our Kruger safari
We had 2 nights in Kruger and 2 nights in Sabi Sands. Lukimbi Safari Lodge in Kruger was fabulous for location, staff, food and service, and Idube Game Lodge in Sabi Sands was more exciting for game drives, mainly because they can go off road in the vehicles 😁

Fantastic
I am so glad we found and booked our trip to Uganda through Safari.com! We had the lovely Mel Du Toit organise our trip for us, and she did such an incredible job. Everything from the hotels to the activities we did was incredible, but one of the key factors that made our trip that much more special was our amazing driver, Ismail from Exclusive Uganda Safaris!
He went above and beyond. His wealth of knowledge about the community and the animals made our trip that much more special, and we are so grateful to have had the opportunity to have him as our driver!
