Richard is the best guide
5/5

We booked a safari with Akondo Safari’s, which was well organized, but what truly made our trip unforgettable was our tour guide, Richard. He is not only incredibly experienced but also friendly, enthusiastic, and genuinely passionate about wildlife. Richard went above and beyond to ensure we saw as many animals as possible, and thanks to his keen eye and knowledge, we had an unforgettable experience.

What really sets him apart is his combination of expertise and enthusiasm. He shared fascinating facts about the animals, their behavior, and the ecosystem, making the safari both fun and educational. On top of that, he made the journey incredibly enjoyable with his stories and warm personality.

In short: if you want a safari where you get the most out of your day, Richard is the guide to choose. We can’t recommend him highly enough!

A really nice and helpful operator, can only recommend!
5/5

We booked a 2-day safari during the low season, including one night at the Escarpment Lodge. We were really lucky with the weather—every time we arrived at the park, the rain stopped. For the low season, we actually saw a lot of animals.
The lodge was breathtaking. We were upgraded to the Executive Suite, had a private pool, a bathtub in the room, and an unforgettable dinner. At the end of the evening, they even sang for me and brought me a birthday cake. It was a bit embarrassing, but still a very nice gesture. The service was flawless—absolutely 10/10.
Back to the safari: Richard was our guide. We had originally been promised a German-speaking guide, which we didn’t get, but Richard was absolutely excellent. He is very knowledgeable and shares lots of interesting little details. The two days with him were truly enjoyable, and overall we had an unforgettable experience despite it being the low season.

An unforgettable safari
5/5

Our safari experience was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Everything was perfectly organized, and we felt well taken care of the entire time. The parks were breathtaking, and we were lucky to see so much wildlife — truly unforgettable moments.

Our Richard was fantastic: knowledgeable, friendly, and always making sure we had the best experience possible. Every detail, from the accommodations to the daily planning, exceeded our expectations.

We couldn’t have asked for a better trip and would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an amazing safari adventure.

Thank you again for everything — we will definitely remember this forever!
