Excellent experience!
I was in contact with Patti, who was very helpful and prompt in her responses to my requests and she was able to tailor my itinerary, while also offering additional alternatives. I traveled solo and stayed three nights at Tremisana Lodge and the rooms were clean, spacious, and there was actually hot water, and the food was great. I've been on plenty of safaris and I'm fairly simple when it comes to amenities, but there were more than enough at Tremisana Lodge. Maybe the wi-fi could have been a bit more reliable, but then again I wasn't there for that in the first place, so it was a plus it was available at all.
I can't say enough about all of the staff, they were all very welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. From the chefs, to the guides, and lodge staff (Rex, Eva, Robin, Elias, Pretty, and anyone else I may have missed, a big thank you! You all made my experience an incredible one!) Each guide worked very hard to find a wide array of wildlife, so that was much appreciated. Although, I have been to South Africa before, it was my first time to Kruger National Park and the surrounding areas.
For reference, I did the four day safari and my itinerary included game drives, a bush walk, and bush braai in Balule Game Reserve, with one full day in Kruger National Park, which is open-attached to Balule, so the animals can roam freely between each. We were able to find lions (lioness & cubs), black/white rhino, zebra, giraffe, hippo, hyena, waterbuck, jackal, cape buffalo, wildebeest, elephants, and even a verreaux's eagle owl (very rare), to name a few. All in all, the experience was just what I was looking for, time out and away from the daily grind while also enjoying the beautiful landscape and it did not disappoint.
In addition, Viva Safaris pick up and drop off in Jo'burg so that was a huge perk. On my return to Jo'Burg, my itinerary included a short stop-off at Blyde River Canyon, which was absolutely amazing! The views were incredible and definitely capped off a great trip to ZAR.
Again, I just want to send a warm thank you to all of the staff and guides who made my stay an incredible one!
I appreciate your hospitality, flexibility, and hard work to provide a great experience during my stay and I would highly recommend Viva Safaris.
Hope to see you again soon!

Wild at Heart Journeys offers a personalized Safari experience that I could find no where else!
I have been on two different Safari Trips with Wild at Heart Journeys and I couldn't recommend them more. Robin puts together incredible, personalized, experiences not just itineraries. She has many connections in Africa which allows access to places and experiences tourists don't usually get to see. Her trips greatly exceeded every expectation that I had (and I am very picky)!!

Friendly and professional
I did a 2 day safari trip to Mikumi National Park from Dar es Salaam. The communication was great. Mwajabu was very nice and helpful and replied quickly with all the information to all my messages. She came to meet me in person in Dar es Salaam before the tour and that really helped to get more idea about what the safari would look like. Her brother who drove me to Mikumi was also very friendly. The camp they had booked me at was beautiful and comfortable. The safari itself was a really nice experience, from driving through the beautiful landscape to watching the animals. I would thoroughly recommend Hello Tanzania.

8 days in Namibia
Our adventure in Namibia was facilitated by Naturetravel Namibia. What an amazing country . Esmari planned our itinerary to give us an overview of the highest sand dunes in the world, cities surrounded by desert, ancient rock engravings and Etosha National Park for an amazing opportunity to see the animals. We opted to do a driving tour with a private driver/guide and we're extremely fortunate to have had Rodger spend 8 days with us. His knowledge of politics, animals, history, plants, geology and customs kept us alert and learning through out the trip. Some of the long drives seems a lot shorter due to lively informative discussions we shared along the way. We feel like we have a new friend in Namibia!
We did a counter clockwise loop through the country starting in Windhoek. We posed in front of 600 year old dead trees trapped in the dunes, hiked back into off road ponds of flamingos, watched thousands of seals frolicking in the ocean and nursing babies on the beach, were awed by Namibian nights skies, all the time knowing Rodger was taking care of details.
Thank you Esmari and Rodger for sharing Namibia with us!

Best mix of safari and culture in Kenya.
We always wanted to go on a safari and after reading a lot on the internet we found Deep Forest Safaris and decided to give Samuel a call. Samuel did a great job in planning our safari in Kenya. Working under both time and budget constraints he still made it possible for us to go on a private safari and made sure all our expectations were met and beyond.
Arriving in Kenya we were welcomed by the Deep Forest Safaris team and our guide for the whole stay. From an instant we both felt welcome and comfortable. Sammy, who was our guide and driver throughout the whole stay in Kenya made sure everything was running smooth and gave us experiences of a lifetime. He was very knowledgeable and told us stories about both the culture and the animals we saw whilst on safari.
Samuel and Sammy took pride in making sure we got the best experience and in that they definitely succeeded. We wouldn't hesitate calling Samuel and Deep Forest Safaris again!
