Yellow Zebra Safaris listens to their clients and provides them with an experience of a lifetime!
5/5

"You can not describe Africa you need to experience it and Yellow Zebra delivers. The logistics of the trip were executed flawlessly from being met on the tarmac in Arusha to be handed off to the Coastal Air pilot in the Northern Serengeti for the trip home.The lodges and bush camps are spectacular and the food in all is fantastic. My trip to Tanzania went beyond my expectations and I need to thank Yellow Zebra for their expertise in making it so."

You are in excellent hands with Yellow Zebra
5/5

Thank you Yellow Zebra (Emma) for sharing your knowledge and answering all of our questions, listening to our preferences and helping us to make the all important decisions on planning our trip to South Africa. We deeply appreciate your expertise at putting together our trip, from having someone to help us through the logistics of immigration, to packing lists and suggestions on how much to tip when we were there. We felt extremely comfortable with the detailed itinerary and support you provided. Everything went smoothly from our arrival in Johannesburg, to our arrival and departure from Mala Mala.
During our trip we had the opportunity to speak to many other travelers and after hearing of some of the problems they encountered we were especially happy to have used Yellow Zebra and felt very lucky to have your assistance with all of the details.

Our safari at Mala Mala exceeded our expectations in all respects. The style and warmth of this establishment is unparalleled .
It is a beautiful camp with accommodations that are truly extraordinary The game drives are incredible.
We were not prepared for the true beauty, hospitality and attention to detail at Mala Mala. You get the sense that everyone is really paying attention to you and your interests, to help create the most wonderful stay.

It was sad to say farewell, but we smile when we think of the amazing experiences we had and hopefully will have the good fortune to return.

Amazing Africa
5/5

The safaris selected by Yellow Zebra were absolutely amazing. Throughout the entire adventure we felt that we were part of a BBC documentary. We saw (up close) all of the big cats, rhinos, hippos, elephants and every antelop imaginable, along with many other unique animals (e.g. tortists, dung bettles, soldier ants, etc.). There were a lot of activities to choose from, including game drives, night drives, horseback riding and land hikes. All activities were restricted to us (two people) and seldom did we see other tourists at the major sightings. There is nothing that we can recommend for improvement.
Thank you Emma.

Honeymoon in South Africa
5/5

Yellow Zebra Safaris helped us with planning our honeymoon in South Africa. They were extremely easy to work with and the lodging/accommodations they had set up for us were all top notch. The sequence of locations to visit was flawless. There was very little that needed to be done on our end other than be where they told us to be and at what time. They even notified each hotel/lodge that we were on our honeymoon which amplified the service levels. I'd highly recommend using them for any trip (esp. a honeymoon) to Africa. You won't regret using them!

An unforgetable experience perfectly organised.
5/5

We used Yellow Zebra for a safari in Tanzania. We were quite particular in what we wanted as it was to be an experience of a lifetime and were prepared to spend two weeks in different camps to get the full flavour of life in the wild. Sophie, our consultant, did not disappoint. She understood our needs and made some excellent suggestions. Keeping in touch regularly throughout the process. Everything was done including internal flights between camps, being met by local guides. While on safari we met other travellers from different countries and some had also used Yellow Zebra and again could not speak highly enough of this company.

Let Yellow Zebra craft a magical safari experience for you, they won't let you down!
5/5

Wonderful company, highly recommended. Angela Hannah put together an awe-inspiring safari adventure in Tanzania for us. We also had the time and opportunity to visit a couple of local villages, which added depth to the overall experience. Everything went without a hitch, accommodations were excellent, staff at the lodges/camps was attentive and kind. Yellow Zebra is top of the line!

Thank you Yellow Zebra for helping us with this adventure of a lifetime!
5/5

We spoke to a few safari travel agents but decided to go with Yellow Zebra for our honeymoon because of their knowledge and professionalism. Emma Dunn did an excellent job in helping us tailor our trip and ensuring we are well-informed about the places we are going to visit and the pre-trip planning (packing, tips, etc). Yellow Zebra was also extremely efficient with our last-minute request for a hot air balloon safari in Maasai Mara. The itinerary was well thought-out with a couple of days in the Loisaba Conservancy introducing us to the African wildlife, including a really good suggestion to try Loisaba Starbeds for a night (great experience sleeping under the stars), and then on to Maasai Mara for a full-blown safari adventure (lots of big cats and the wildebeest migration). The trip went without a hitch with Tradewinds picking us from airside the minute we landed in Nairobi and Bush & Beyond doing the airport transfers and half-day city tour to the Giraffe Centre and Elephant Orphanage. The service at all the camps we stayed in (Loisaba Starbeds, Loisaba Tented Camp, Offbeat Mara) was top-notch; food was excellent as well. Thank you Yellow Zebra for helping us with this adventure of a lifetime to Kenya!

Awesome Adventures with Yellow Zebra!
5/5

Yellow Zebra delivered on everything they promised and then some. Antonina Welfing helped with the logistical details. When we landed in Jo-burg, we were met and cared for at every stop of the journey. Every driver from Ilios travel was professional, on-time, and shared their experiences along the way. Amazing! One gentleman could spot a hyena basking in the mud at 2 Km away...we have the picture to prove it! The accommodations were outstanding. But most amazing of all were the safaris and camps that we visited. The staff were excellent at both Simbavati and Madikwe Hills. We give a shout out to our game drivers Caswell at Simbavati and Lucky and Max at Madikwe. They ROCK! You can rely on them to deliver you safely from a charging elephant...which they did. We can't wait to go back!

Perfect Honeymoon
5/5


A big thank you and 5 stars to Yellow Zebra and Kirsten Woolley. I don’t think you can too Yellow Zebra’s attention to detail, communication, and recommendations. They made our trip effortless for us and all of our destinations over delivered on expectations. Ask the YZ consultant what their recommendation would be based upon the choices and the price differences. We were willing to pay more for what was important for us (private guiding, etc) and working with YZ it was very helpful for pick and choose based upon different price points and recommendations. Hope we’re fortunate enough to experience again in our lifetime.
