It was a great trip
Everything went perfectly fine. The only thing, if I had to find something was the shark diving experience in Durban which took place on a stormy day and that I found dangerous and the guides in Durban city who were the nicest people in the world but utterly incompetent. The other tour guides we had in Lesotho and Pretoria and Jburg were amazing and we really recommend them warmly.

Excellent in every phase
I joined 3nights 4days safari. During the safari, we saw many animals and learned a lot about them through a ranger. All crew in the tydon safari bush camp were very kind and nice. And the camp was very clean and good. Also all the meal was excellent. Thank you for having me a beautiful experience. Especially thank you for Karah, Joe, Laggie.

Trip of a lifetime!
From start to finish, AfricanSafaris was incredible. Kathi Simon was so easy to work with and created an itinerary based upon our wishes. She understood our best hopes and every detail was mapped out perfectly! It took all the stress away for us and allowed for us to just enjoy our experiences. All of the accommodations and expeditions, safaris, etc went above and beyond our expectations. Every question and concern we had was answered on a timely fashion and we felt so comfortable with our itinerary and plans. All of the companies African Safari's contracts with had such friendly and helpful employees. Nothing but positive things to say!

It was a great reward!
Everything was perfect! African Welcome Safari organised for us a marvelous 10-day safari which allowed us to discover Victoria Falls and the stark, otherworldy beauty of Botswana. It was really one of the best and most luxurious ways to experience the highlights of Botswana and its world-class game viewing!

Reliable and trustworthy - relax in their hands...
A fifth trip organised by African Welcome was possibly the best of all. They've all been the best of all! The patience while we have planned the trips and the working to our requests for style and comfort level has always been exemplary. Excellent communications and practical, pragmatic advice. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a trip to Southern Africa.

Trip of a Lifetime
We had the most amazing trip, it was even better than I had hoped. South Africa is such a complex, diverse and beautiful country from the scenery to the people.
Everything went extremely well thanks to the meticulous planning of African Welcome Safaris.
Every transfer went without a hitch, our one day tour in Johannesburg was with one of the best guides we have ever had, and all the accommodation was excellent.
Victoria Falls was breathtaking and it was such a treat to stay at the Victoria Falls Hotel, it felt like stepping back in time to a more relaxed and refined era.
We really loved Blackheath Lodge in Sea Point, it had a special feel about it. The highlight was Tanda Tula,
what a great adventure. The staff were so welcoming, the accommodation was very unique and we saw the most stunning sights we have ever seen. The sunrises and sunsets were beautiful.
African Welcome Safaris thought about every detail and our trip flowed seamlessly. There was also plenty of documentation provided and contact numbers for each phase of the trip so we had a back up plan if something went wrong. The itinerary that Kathi put together for us was just right, we felt we spent the right number of days in each location to enable us to see the sights we wanted to see.

Fantastic experience in Sabi Sands
We had a 4 night fly-in safari to Sabi Sabi private game park, staying at Earth Lodge and it was awesome. From start to finish we were cared for, waited on, fed with great meals (all inclusive) and went on fantastic game drives twice/day. Kathi at African Welcome Safaris was so helpful in organising it all for us. She had great communication and everything went smoothly. We thoroughly recommend this company to anyone thinking of visiting Africa and if you want to see leopards, Sabi Sabi is the place to go. Thanks so much!

African Welcome Safaris gave us a great deal for a luxury safari in an amazing private reserve.
Our contact at African Welcome Safaris, Kathi, was very responsive and helpful, answering several ad hoc questions that we had. The option that we chose at the Little Bush Lodge in Sabi Sabi was a wonderful trip and we loved our stay. African Welcome Safaris offered a package that included federal air transfers as well, which were very efficient and maximized our time on safari.

An excellent introduction to South Arica
This was my 1st time to South Africa. Often, after 10/11 days, I'm looking to go home but this 3 week trip just flew by. Cape Town, the wine tour, the Garden Route and wildlife safaris were excellent.
The accommodation was 1st class and guides friendly and knowledgeable.
