Kathi was extremely pleasant, knowledgeable & reliable from start to finish
5/5

I can't say enough good things about Kathi & SafariBookings. I traveled to South Africa for a wedding; Kathi was a one-stop shop for me & my friends to not only book everything, but answer all questions South Africa related. It was a trip of a lifetime thanks to her guidance. Highly, highly recommend!

An Unforgettable Experience
5/5

We were given Kathi Simons name as we were planning our trip to South Africa and Victoria Falls. She is knowledgeable, organized and a delight to work with. Our trip took us to several stops and they were all well planned with great guides. Our group of 8 thanks Kathi for giving us the experience we wanted and more!

Great experience
5/5

I recently worked with Kathi to plan a trip to South Africa around plans to attend a wedding there. Kathi was very helpful and easy to coordinate with. We had the most amazing trip and everything went smoothly. Kathi set us up with private tours around Cape Town, and Graham (the tour guide) and Pierre (the driver) were a big hit with our group. They were both very friendly and super knowledgable of the area. I would highly recommend booking your travel with them!

Fantastic! I can't recommend this enough!
5/5

My family and I traveled to South Africa for a wedding in Feb 2023, and since we had never been to South Africa, we trusted Kathi at African Welcome Safaris to help us plan and coordinate activities and a safari for our family (including a 7-year-old boy). WE HAD THE BEST TIME! Everything that was on our itinerary was great - we got to see Cape Town and enjoyed a fantastic experience on Safari later in the trip. The transport and guides were all professional and courteous. We felt safe and comfortable every step of the way; and the value for the money was exceptional. I can't wait to return and spend more time in South Africa - and we will be booking through African Welcome Safaris again!

Knowledgeable, efficient and responsive
5/5

Kathi Simon booked the perfect safari for my family that absolutely exceeded our expectations. She was very responsive and answered many questions, listened to what we were looking for and quickly narrowed down a few choices for us. We were booking last minute and it was quite overwhelming until we reached out to Kathi. Thank you!!

Extremely Helpful and Prompt Response
5/5

Our party of 8 started planning our trip with Kathi way back in 2018/2019 for Dec 2020 trip. After nailing down the meticulously planned itinerary by Kathi, the trip had to be put on hold for 2 years because of covid. Kathi, diligently kept us updated every few months with a new possible schedule. Our trip finally happened in Dec 2022. The schedule, hotels/resorts, guides for the trip were top notch! Nothing we can complain about. Kathi kept in touch with us personally via calls/whatsapp, just to make sure everything was well.
Very thankful for Kathi to have made our trip a unforgettable experience.

So Happy I Went With This Company!
5/5

I knew I wanted to go on Safari but I didn’t even know where to start. I am so happy I got connected with Alex at African Welcome Safaris because he put together an awesome vacation! I am a solo traveler in his 30’s and really enjoyed the itinerary. Will definitely use again next time!

PERFECTION!
5/5

From the moment we contacted Kathi at African Welcome Safari's, we knew we were onto a winner. Kathi put together a great itinerary for us to Victoria Falls, Cape Town, Kruger / Hoedspruit & Jo'burg. Transfers, Tours, Accom, Flights were all taken care, we just had to show up. The quality of everything was perfect and the communication was brilliant! Kathi stayed in touch throughout the trip to answer any questions we had and assist if we had any issues. Everything was just so easy!

This was our first time in Africa and Kathi had some great advise and helped us plan the trip of a lifetime! Would highly recommend African Welcome Safari's!

Thanks for planning our trip of a lifetime! :)
