Excellent !
I was very luck in choosing Mwendo African Safari, it was a last minute booking and have nothing bad to say. The tour went very smoothly, the staff very kind and professional, good food and comfortable transportation. It was one of the most affordable tour company in Arusha and every penny spent, worth it. Highly recommend.

Excellent safari and beach holiday
We are a family of 4 from the UK and recently stayed in the Masai Mara doing a 4 day 3 night trip followed by a stay at Diani Beach organised with Edith of Kenya Safari Arcade. The communications were excellent, she delivered as promised and accommodated changes to the booking in the build up to the holiday (we changed from a land transfer from Nairobi to air transfers). The staff on safari and the beach hotel (Basecamp Explorer & Kole Kole Baobob) where exceptional, in fact all Kenyans could not do enough for us.
We saw 4 of the big 5 (no Rhino) and masses of animals on safari and even when we got caught in the mother of all thunderstorms, our guides got us back skilfully adding to the drama of safari.
I was nervous using a tour operator I had never met but, based on a referral, we went ahead and Edith delivered fully even meeting us for a meal on our trip back through Nairobi on the way home. We could not recommend her enough.
We felt the safari first was the right option, fly to the camps if you can, do the village visit in Masai Mara and, unless you are a diving expert, you will find the snorkelling in Diana worthwhile although felt the locals do need to respect the coral better.
Overall fabulous.

Great, kind, reliable and efficient service all along
The visitors were very impressed and certainly found the communicated insights of Zimbabwe's History and landscape very informative.
The services of African Coast Travel & Tours are highly commented

For a short notice planned trip, this was an excellent and efficient experience.
Was amazing, Camp Bastian (the accomodation) was amazing too.For a trip booked and planned two days before departure, everything was really done well.Our tour operator (Anton) was really experienced and patient with us and our three year old daughter.All in all, I would definitely do it again, and would highly recommend this agency.Abdalla's communication was always on point, very fast to reply to queries and efficient. :)

They have good customer care and very friendly. The feeling of being in the right place .
Having left us with great memories after our trip, I would recommend for one trying to decide on the guide service for your trip. You should not hesitate to choose Iconic travel services limited. From initial correspondence to the final completion, they excelled in every department .We were a family of 4, flying into kigali and then to Bwindi, Queen Elizabeth, and Muchison falls.The trip went off without a hitch and we were fortunate enough to see what we hoped for.
And yes, we would book with then again.

Better than any expectation!
We made an individual five-day tour with Edwin through the Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. In the run-up we did not really know what to expect - be it the type and number of animals, the comfort of the accommodations or our guide Edwin.
As mentioned above, we are totally thrilled now back in Germany. Thanks to Edwin's expertise, we have seen pretty much everything about animals that you can see. Highlights were certainly the rides, in which one was alone in the endless expanse of the Serengeti and suddenly discovered a lion family at the waterhole. Or when we set off in the morning before dawn and discovered two lion brothers and shortly thereafter two cheetah brothers and no one else was around us.
Regarding the accommodations no wish remained unfulfilled. We did not think what comfort awaits you in absolute nowhere.
And also Edwin has delighted us with his sympathetic nature and responded to every wish, without losing the spirit of discovery in itself. Great!
We can fully recommend Pumba!!

Amazing experience with the Wild Secret Safaris
To begin with we got a very nice deal from Wild secret Safari.
The administrator Rasheed is a very friendly and a helpful person and always helped us with all our queries regarding the safari n the stay.
The stay done by Wild Secret safari was a beautiful Ngorongo Lodge n we were very satisfied as we had a comfortable stay after the whole day of exploring the jungles.
The tour guide name Doe is another friendly chap who was well educated about the animals n the places around. He use to guide us n tell us about every animal without even questioning.
So overall a beautiful experience and I would surely like to come again and choose Wild Secret Safari.

Excellent service and unforgettable experience
I was on a 3-day gorilla tracking safari which I absolutely loved!
All went pretty much as expected. My overall experience was great. I had no problems during the entire tour. They were very responsive to all my emails.
I appreciate their willingness to discuss and adjust the itinerary according to my tight budget. That made it the cheapest reliable option I found.
I would recommend them to anyone.
Take note that nights are cold in Bwindi and days are not boiling hot either. The Batwa community walk was not authentic.

Perfect tour!
Our guide Jackson was fantastic! He was helpful and professional the whole time, and we felt very safe with him. He was also very knowledgeable about all the animals and birds we saw, and he made sure we had a great time. The food and accommodation was also excellent, it was the trip of a lifetime! Maggie was helpful and responsive when it came to answering our questions, could not have asked for a better trip!
