Everyday - expectations exceeded
So having just returned from our trip to South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana I can with complete confidence recommend the services of Ute to help arrange your safari experience.
Ute is very easy to communicate with, both by phone and email and took the time to understand the needs of our group of 8. She successfully worked with our budget, showed us where to spend a little more and where to save.
Everywhere we went we were met on time by local ground operators who knew the plan - including at the end of our trip at Maun airport.......
There’s something very special about service culture African style, I could write a whole book on what we did each day.
Payment was simple, predeparture infornation comprehensive.
What can I say other than we are 110% satisfied with both our safari and the service.
Choose Roho Ya Chui, you won’t regret it!

Trustworthy and Safe..Incredible Experience on Mount Kilimanjaro
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Tanzania Exclusive Journeys and am so glad we chose them! All the staff we encountered, everyone from the desk and wait staff at the Keys Hotel to our guides and porters on the mountain, were amazing. Everyone we encountered seemed to have a good and always willing to help attitude. My husband and I must give the most thanks to our lead guide, Mtui. He and David literally pushed and pulled me the last couple hours up the mountain, and provided so much support and encouragement on summit night. I was about to quit about four hours into the summit attempt, and Mtui assured me I could make it to the top and we did make it to Stella Point. I think I would have so many regrets if I had actually quit so I have Mtui to thank for this. Remsi has been very helpful also. I left a jacket at the hotel, and she actually found it and made sure it was mailed back to me. I received it in the mail today. We only had time for a 2 day safari at Manyara and Ngorongoro. I think our favorite night was at the Ngorongoro Serena Lodge. What a beautiful property! We also had a lot of fun on the free city tour of Moshi. Rashid led us on the tour walking up and down main and side streets, and I am so thankful for this because I know we got to see parts of town that we may not have seen without a guide.
Thanks again to all the staff at Tanzania Exclusive Journeys for making this a trip of a lifetime for my husband and me. This is definitely the best trip we have ever taken! Merry Christmas to you all.

fantastic customised 6-day tour
When I originally sent a request for more information to Mmilo Tours and several others through the Safari Bookings website Jamie was the first to answer and also the one who was right away suggesting a lot of options. so based on that decided to book with Mmilo Tours! and I was not to be disappointed! Since we had limited time and wanted to see a range of different things in SA Jamie packed a lot of things in it: we were picked up at the Johannesburg Airport by Norman who drove us via the Long Tom Pass to Sabie - where we stayed one night. He proved top be a fantastic tour guide who know so much of the history of SA and the area that the time flew by fast!We then stayed at the Sabie Town House - which was fantastic - great room - with bathroom - pool and Jacuzzi! i just wished we could have stayed longer there! Dinner was included and the chef had a great meal prepared! on day 2 we were picked up by Sam - a local tour operator who spend the day showing us the Panorama Route including: Lone Creek Falls, Mac Mac Falls, Lisbon Falls, Berlin Falls, Bryde River Canyon, Wonderview, Bourke's Luck Potholes, God's Window and the Pinnacle! i was able to take lots of photos and also fly my drone in these locations! after a lunch (included in the tour!) at the Pancake house Sam drove us to the south end of the Kruger Park (crocodile river) where he dropped us off at the Pestana Lodge. we stayed there for 3 nights.
on the next day we started early for our first game drive and where picked up by Lloyd - a Park guide from Sanparks at 3.40 am - very early for us to get up but i was worth every minute ! - in the 3 hour game drive we saw a lot of animals including Buffalo, White Rhinos, Zebras, Giraffes, Elephants, Impalas, eagles, and more! so within the first drive we had 4 of the "big Five"! and then we also saw something very rare - two black Rhinos! After breakfast back at the lodge we were then picked up by another driver to take us to Kwa Madwala Lodge for a flight with a Microlight!! It was fantastic to see the game reserve from above and fly along the Crocodile River! well worth the extra money!
In the evening our second game drive with again lots of animals - this time in evening light - with Leopards (2!) and herds of elephants and everything else. The driver was Oupa - and he was great and would be the driver on our remaining game drives! he went out of the way to find Lions for us - and on the second day of drives we did see 3 male lions! So many thanks to Oupa for gong above and beyond to ensure that we saw everything that the Park has to offer! in total we had 6 game drives @ 3 hours or more- and i loved every minute of it! it is one thing to see the animals in a zoo - but that does not compare to seeing them in there habitat in the wild!
on our last day Jame had organised a trip to Chimp Eden- about 1.5 hours away from the lodge - and t was great to see the rescued Chimpanzees that are being care for at the camp. well worth the extra drive to see and observe our close cousins in their behaviour !
on the last day Norman picked us up again early n the morning to drive us back to Johannesburg in time to catch our plane.
overall t was a fantastic tour where everything was well organised and we did not have to worry about anything! the drivers were fantastic as we learned a lot! i would at time book with Mmilo Tours again and can only recommend the dedication to providing the best possible experience!

Uganda is absolutely wonderful - and Dauda is a great guide to show you the country!
We traveled to Uganda for 12 days in December 2018. We visited Kampala, Jinja, Queen Elizabeth National Park (including Ishasa sector and chimpanzee tracking at Kyambura Gorge), Bwindi Impenetrable Forest for Gorilla Tracking, and Itambira island on Lake Bunyoni. The country is nothing short of magnificent. Dauda was a wonderful guide and driver - he combined knowledge, friendliness, reliability, and flexibility. He was always ready to answer questions. He could explain animals and bird as well as cultural and farming practices, and seemed to be friendly with people everywhere. If we needed to stop somewhere or slightly change the plan he found a way to do it. The places we were selected to spend each night were nice. We had an amazing trip and will be back to Uganda to see more of the magnificent country! We recommend Augur Tours and especially Dauda.

A Magical Experience in Tanzania
I don't even know where to begin. This trip was amazing. From the ease of customizing and booking with Ibrahim, to the incredible conversations with our guide Haj, the awesome tent in the Serengeti, the wonderful food, and, oh yeah... the ANIMALS!!! It took us right until the end of our time in the Ngorongoro crater on the last day to complete the "Big 5," but we did indeed get to see the rhino!

Reliable and friendly guides with lots of local knowledge and patience for questions!
Had an amazing 4-day trip around the Masai Mara area with very professional guides at a reasonable price. I got a blurry picture of a small bird I couldn’t identify, but before lunch was over our guide had looked it up and got me the name (grey-headed kingfisher)! Great service, safe driving, and they’re flexible with the pace and schedule to match what your group wants to do or what the weather/animals are doing on that particular day. Highly recommended!

Excellent driver great place to stay and saw lots of different animals.
I set this up only a couple of weeks before we arrived. Everything including the driver arrival time matched exactly as the tour guide described and detail information provided. I had a great time with My Son and best friend.

Couldn’t have asked for better!
Mussa at Roam Serengeti safaris have is an exceptional experience. He was easy to communicate with and flexible to accommodate our requests. We had a fantastic time, Mussa made sure we had plenty of close encounters and got some amazing photos to remember our trip. All the food and accommodations that he’d organised were excellent. I can’t thank him enough for a great trip!

Experience of a Lifetime!
Uganda was so much more than I ever anticipated. The wildlife was so abundant. I used Lifetime Safari. Eddie was my driver. He was amazing!!! So patient and was so concerned that I was getting the experience that I was hoping for.
As far as the Safari Bookings website. So user friendly! I loved it and have already recommended to many.
