Thank you for organising one of the best tours of my life🤩
* Overall experience: Excellent. I had a wonderful safari and my overall impression of the company is very positive. Everything was well organized from beginning to end.
* Organization: On the first day, an agent personally briefed me about everything — what to do, what to wear, payments, timing, and what to expect. Communication was clear and professional.
* Guide: Our guide, Lucas, was great — friendly, professional, and almost always perfectly on time. A couple of small delays were completely understandable due to circumstances beyond his control.
* Vehicles: This is the main area that needs improvement. Our car broke down twice, and the first breakdown cost us a couple of hours. I would strongly recommend investing in newer and better-maintained vehicles.
* Driving: I completely understand that roads in national parks are rough and mostly off-road — that is part of a real safari. However, driving around 60 km/h on very bumpy roads sometimes felt too fast. Slower driving would make the experience safer and more comfortable.
* A lucky accident: Because of the first breakdown, we entered the park later than planned, but it actually gave us an amazing experience — we saw an active leopard walking around in the evening, rather than sleeping. So something good came out of the delay!
* Food: The food was fine, but it was almost exactly the same every day. For a multi-day safari, more variety in the menu would be very welcome.
* The group: I was also incredibly lucky with my group. We came together completely by accident but quickly became really good friends, and sharing the safari with such wonderful people made the whole experience even more memorable.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this company. It was a beautiful, well-organized and memorable experience. With newer vehicles, slightly slower driving on difficult roads, and more variety in the food, it could be even better for future travelers.

Great experience seeing all the animals across 3 national parks
We had a great experience overall. We enjoyed all the 3 national parks and every animal sighting got us joy. All the 3 lodges were great. The Lodge staff were all friendly.
Some areas we felt could be of improvised were the options of picnic box of hot lunch. We prefer box lunches but the only option was hot lunches which did not stay hot. Also the quantity of the picnic lunches needs to be checked as it was less. Also we understand the drivers/guides are experienced on bush roads, but maybe they need to be mindful of the speed.

The driver is good
We have just completed our safari trip, and it was truly an unforgettable experience, thanks to our guide and driver, Mosses.
Mosses is an exceptional guide who is knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about wildlife and nature. His ability to spot animals, explain their behavior, and share fascinating insights about the ecosystem made every game drive both exciting and educational. He always knew where to go and worked hard to ensure we had the best possible wildlife sightings.
As a driver, Mosses was excellent. He navigated challenging roads safely and smoothly, making us feel comfortable and secure throughout the trip. His patience, positive attitude, and friendly personality created a welcoming atmosphere every day.
What impressed us most was his dedication to making sure every guest had a memorable experience. He was always punctual, attentive, and eager to answer questions. Thanks to his expertise and enthusiasm, we were able to see incredible wildlife and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Memorable
We had a good experience during the 5 days serengeti package. The admin Neema was patient and kind enough in replying to our inquiries and requests, even though our booking was made rather last minute. We booked the budget camping option and I must say the itinerary wasn't explained clear enough before the trip and we encountered a few surprises, only finding out after when the trip commenced, that for the 4 nights, only 2 were for camping and the other 2 nights were actually in the lodge. Also the main issue I had beforehand was the 4% surcharge when u pay by credit card, and I'd say is exorbitant , where u could probs spend it on tipping the guide/chef instead as the recommended tip amount per day is by no means little, on top of the package fee, and that this is standard practice for all safaris. So just be aware of these 'hidden' costs.
Other than that, the trip was memorable, and the guide Burton is kind hearted and knowledgeable, and we were able to see many wildlife with ease, and one thing he can further improve on is his engagement and interactions with his guests, with more emphasis on the itinerary details and also more description on the wildlife and their behaviour etc. Another notable mention is the chef Richard, who works tirelessly in each kitchen to make sure we are well fed, and he whips up nice meals too.
Overall, our trip was memorable and the places we visited were amazing enough, esp ngorongoro crater, though we wished to have spent more time in Serengeti as it is way too big.
Logistics, transport transits and accomodations were well organised as well. And most importantly we made priceless connections with other people in our shared group safari tour :)

well organized
My experience was very positive. Communication was seamless and straightforward from the very beginning. Questions were answered promptly, and the quote was clearly laid out. Excellent service and great value for money compared to other group offers. I consider the agency to be very reliable.
Thanks to our good guide, Lawrence, we saw all the animals and landscapes during the safari. Unfortunately, we didn't get many explanations or facts about the animals. Personally, I really missed that. But this was the only thing that was missing :)

Quiet but knowledgable
Our experience with Serengeti African tours was overall great. We saw lots of animals (including the big 5 + lots of extras), our guide (Lucas) was very knowledgable about all of the animals and educated us on many things that we weren’t already aware of. His knowledge, wildlife expertise and driving were fantastic. We could not fault our experience within the safari parks. However, our guides communication skills were sub standard to our expectations. There were situations throughout our daily safari drives where we did not know where we were going or what was the next plans due to lack of communication, such as, when we would be having lunch, or leaving the parks to move onto our accommodation. While this did not detract from his ability as a guide it did make parts of the overall experience feel more disjointed than it needed to be. We understand that daily drives throughout the safari experience are long, however the constant and repeated playing of the drivers own music was not to our personal taste and became a little irritating after a while. Overall I think improvements on communication and guest support outside of the safari drives would be beneficial and support the overall customer experience.

Beautiful places & very kind people & perfect guide
We had an amazing safari experience, and we would definitely recommend them!
Our guide, Burton, was absolutely wonderful. He is such a kind and friendly person, always with a big smile on his face, and he was very patient with all our requests. He made the whole safari experience relaxed, enjoyable, and memorable.
We joined a shared tour, and we were lucky enough to meet some really nice people in our group. Everyone got along very well, which made the trip even more enjoyable. During the safari, we managed to see almost all of the key animals we were hoping to see, which was definitely one of the highlights of our trip!
A big thank you also to Antonia, who was very helpful and did a great job arranging our itinerary. The mid-range accommodations were also much better than we expected and were comfortable and enjoyable throughout the trip.
Overall, it was a fantastic journey from start to finish. Thank you, Burton, and Antonia, for making our safari such a wonderful memory. Highly recommended!

We enjoyed it with Laurence. He done the best for us to see animals closer. 1 day to go and back.
The organisation was perfect.
We got all information before coming and keep contact during the safari.
We just regrette that it was more 2 days in parks and 1 day to go and back from the parks.
