Amazing service &amazing trip
5/5

The service received from Rose at the Luxury Safari Company was absolutely brilliant. Really useful advice was given in the initial email communications. Also really useful literature was sent when booking was made and also prior to the trip. The trip to Nottens Bush Camp was fantastic. If you are at all interested in seeing animals in their natural environment this is without doubt the place to be and the people to see it with. Could not find any fault with the operator or the safari itself. I am so glad I found Rose through a review I read on trip advisor. Transfer from the airport, accommodation, facilities & service were all first class and all at a decent price.

Beyond Expectations
5/5

From our first communication with Rose, we knew we'd found the right person to help us plan our long-anticipated safari trip to celebrate our retirement. After doing our preliminary research, we contacted a number of agencies - describing the places we were thinking of going, the type of experiences we hoped to have, and the kind of accommodation we would prefer. Most agencies replied with a set itinerary that they often use, but not Rose -- her suggested itinerary was totally customized, the only one that really reflected our preferences. It was clear that Rose listens to her clients, and has their needs at the forefront. As we finalized our plans, Rose responded quickly and fully to all our questions and requests. We couldn't have asked for a more helpful and knowledgeable agent -- Rose definitely knows Africa!

Our safari trip included gorilla trekking in Rwanda, then luxury safari camping in the Serengeti, at Ngorongoro, and in Tarangire, ending off with a beach stay on Zanzibar. The arrangements that Rose had made were perfect -- everything went very smoothly. We were met at each destination by a guide, and each of them was knowledgeable and personable. The accommodations were top-notch, and the service was great -- it seemed that everyone was intent on making our trip memorable. And if that wasn't enough ... the wildlife was incredible! We had close encounters with more animals than we could have ever imagined -- from the moving experience of sitting beside the gorillas to the awesome spectacle of being in the middle of the migration, --- with cheetahs, lions, leopard, rhinos, elephants and giraffes, and many more!

We had been planning and looking forward to this trip for many years, and we had built up great expectations. Happily, it exceeded them -- thanks in large part to Rose and The Luxury Safari Company.

An awesome 10 day self-drive camping safari in Northern Namibia superbly organised by Rose!
5/5

A massive thank you to Rose and her team who organised an awesome trip to Namibia for L and I. Everything ran like clockwork and we had such fun exploring the country and camping along the way. I highly recommend this type of trip to anyone with a strong sense of adventure and independence. The country is extremely safe, we saw some absolutely stunning scenery, tonnes of wildlife and the weather was perfect. We covered over 1,900km in 10 days and our land cruiser never faltered. Of note, we were overjoyed to be able to listen to lion roaring all round our campsite on three of the nights. We were also lucky enough to see wild dog as well as a lot of lion and cheetah. I would return to Namibia in a heartbeat. Thank you Rose! x

The luxury safari company were amazing at helping us plan our honeymoon, every detail was perfect and we had the best experience complete with surprises along the way! They delivered above and beyond and we saw loads of game and met some fantastic people along the way. We can't not thank Rose and the team enough.

Inspiring Adventure
5/5

This was our fifth safari and surely the best organized.
Thank you Rose, and thanks to your partners in Namibia and Cape Town.
Namibia isn't maybe the best place for game, but the sceneries are so amazing...From the many countries we have visited , Namibia is without a doubt one of the most beautiful we have seen so far. Thank you Rose for advising Serra Cafema. The flight above the Skeleton Coast and the Kunene River's valley, the landing on that airstrip lost in between immense desert lands, the welcome of Serra Cafema's team, the rooms so well adapted to the surroundings, Josef's Ice tea and his secret recipe, Osco our guide throughout the dunes, and much more...a unique gem for nature lovers...
If you plan a visit to Etosha, we can only advise you to stay at the Fort on the Onguma private reserve. A beautiful and surprising place with a lovely team.Great game. Special thanks to Frederica. And to Friedrich who tried his best to teach us his native Nama language
Special thanks to our pilote Ben Steyn, to whom we wish all the best for 2015...
Ce n'est qu'un au revoir...
Best wishes from Switzerland

One of the best vacations we've ever had. Travel, accommodation and activities were spot on.
5/5

Our first safari saw us very dependent on LSC's advice and guidance. The locations and recommended accommodation were first class and the balance between travel versus activity was just right. We enjoyed ourselves throughout and our 17 year old daughter was completely won over by the experience.

Fabulous trip and service!
5/5

Rose of The Luxury Safari Company organised the most wonderful safari trip to Kenya for me and my two teenage children. She understood perfectly from the first moment of our phone chat what we were after and organised a trip that exceeded our expectations. She chose three camp locations and assembled them in the perfect order, allowing us to acclimatise in the cooler Kigio Wildlife Conservancy before moving to the stunning beauty of the Meru National Park and finally to the highlight, Offbeat Mara in the Masai Mara North Consersancy. She is also most responsive and readily reachable for any question or problem. Highly recommended!
