Trip of a lifetime!!
We booked our honeymoon with Rose, and had the most amazing trip EVER! She did a great job incorporating everything we wanted, and everything went off without a hitch.
We did some research into safari travel companies, and spoke to the major tour companies and few smaller ones, and ultimately went with the Luxury Safari Company because of Rose's personal reviews and how quickly she responded to emails and answered our questions. I'm so glad we went with her, and felt like we really got the personal attention we needed.
We basically ended up doing three trips - the beach, safari and wine country. We ended up going to an island off of Mozambique for 5 days that we got to by helicopter, spent 5 days at Londolozi in Sabi Sands, and then 2 nights in Franschhoek. Everything was customized to our preferences and requests and each part of the honeymoon was perfect! Almost all of it was paid for upfront which made it easier, and we knew what we were getting. She arranged transportation for each part of the trip and booked our local flights which was also very helpful.
We would absolutely recommend using Rose, she was incredibly knowledgeable, was always reachable, and answered the million questions we had. I wish we could do it again!!

First time to Africa and fantastic experience throughout the tour
Just finished a 3 week tour and all the family rated it the best holiday ever and that is a big statement for an Asian based Aussie expat who has travelled the world for 30+ years. Effectively everything within reason was included (apart from the tips)- transfers, accomodation, internal flights, full board, drinks and laundry so we only spent money on gifts. Some great guides, superb accomodation and the eperience of a life time
Key question you always ask- if you had the time again, what would you change? For us- Nothing!. It exceeded our already high expectation
Great Experience
We booked our honeymoon with Rose to South Africa and I can honestly say it was the most amazing trip. Everything was organised from the minute we stepped off the plane, everything was perfect. Rose was great at listening to what we wanted and giving her professional advice and personal experiences. If you want to have an amazing holiday then book with the Luxury Safari Company. We have already recommended them to our family and friends and would definitely use them again. We had a honeymoon to remember and loved every minute.

Incredible experience for our whole family, safari and beach combined into one fantastic trip.
We took a trip from Canada to Tanzania / Zanzibar for our extended summer vacation. Rose and her team provided excellent advice for the trip based on what our family needed, and attended to all the details, connections, accommodations, and contacts if needed. Nothing was left or forgotten.
We went to Selous and stayed at Kiba Point, which was spectacular. Hippo's, croc's, elephants, etc were all seen in and around the Rufigi river. We also did a fly camp, and boat safari. Hamza, our guide was exceptionally knowledgable and ensured we were well informed, rested and fed.
Our second stop in Ruaha showed different game, but was beautiful just the same. We were taken care of by the team with excellent food, rest and guiding. The expert knowledge of our guide here was also unmatched.
Our third stop in Zanzibar at the Residence was a great quiet break with some beach time, (and wifi for the kids) and relaxation. A bit of a rough drive to the Residence, but the rooms, and views were gorgeous.
After 14 days it was home to Canada where we will expect snow within a few months. We will always have the warm memories and pictures to remind us of our African adventure. Thanks again Rose, the trip went without a hitch.

Exceptional Service
Once again we had a wonderful experience thanks to Rose. This was our third holiday organized by the Luxury Safari Company, and once again..exceptional. From private flying safari to road trips across South Africa, Rose and the ground agents used by the Luxury Safari Company are just brilliant and very reliable. Being used to travel throughout Africa for business, we know how hard it can be to organize trips and holidays in some countries. But these people know their job, and a trip across Africa with them feels easier than a trip across Switzerland. Special thanks to Caroline at the Thanda private game reserve, Peggy and Franck at La Clé des Montagnes, Brent and Fiona at the Three Tree Hill Lodge, to the team of the Saxon hotel and the Chitwa Lodge. Thank you Rose and see you soon, Barbara, Carole, Sarah, Pascal and Nicolas from Switzerland

Wonderful Safari
We stayed at Chitwa Chitwa in Sabi Sands, the lodge was spacious and our accommodation had a fabulous view of the water hole where we saw herds of 100 strong elephant bathing, hippos, crocodiles and all manner of antelope. The drives were excellent with some exciting close encounters with leopard and lions.
Food and service as good as anywhere we have stayed.

Amazing Time.
We recently got back from a two week honeymoon. We travelled to Kenya first for a week then to Zanzibar. The whole trip was amazing, well planned and stress free. The two safari camps we stayed at (saruni samburu, Richards river camp Masi Mara) were beautiful, the people were friendly and couldn't do more to help. We got everything and more out of the safari, we saw all the incredible animals and some truely beautiful sights. Our final week was spent on a beach in Zanzibar at the stunning resort called The Residence. This was truely beautiful and relaxing. We would recommend the luxury safari company to anyone planning a once in a life time trip.
Extraordinary Experience
We had decided to do a one week Safari in Kenya very last minute, without any idea what we were getting into, and, within 24hours, Rose from LuxurySafari had organized an unforgettable experience. She booked us amazing and beautiful lodges with amazing and friendly service in Samburu and Masai Mara, with both experiences complementing each other perfectly. The transportation between all of our accommodations were organized seamlessly and we never once had to worry about what to do, or how to get from point A to point B. The only thing we had to do was to relax and enjoy the incredible one week experience.

Super efficient personalised service
We booked our recent 10 day trip to Zambia through Rose at the Luxury Safari Company. The service provided at all stages was superb, from the initial enquiry, to assessing / recommending various options, booking, and seamless ground handling during the trip. We were able to secure availability at short notice and with little flexibility in our schedules at top camps during the high season. I can't remember waiting more than a few hours for an email response at any stage. The trip itself was fantastic, taking in Vic Falls (Tongabezi), South Luangwa (Chinzombo) and Lower Zambezi (Sausage Tree). Would recommend Rose and LSC to anyone.
