We had an amazing adventure with Backpackers Safaris that far exceeded my expectations
Our personal driver Anton was very good with his knowledge of the park and the animals and we had an experience of a lifetime that we will never forget. Tanzania is an amazing country with very warm, loving hospitable people.

Dream come true!! East Africa Wild created a safari experience that exceeded all our expectations!!
From the start, Alym was very attentive in understanding our preferences and booking the right itinerary for the season. He is extremely knowledgeable about Kenya and Tanzania, and he was able to place us in lodging near some excellent wildlife viewing over the holiday season with relatively short notice.
We had an unexpected travel delay and, as a result, we were going to arrive many hours late to start our safari. We were panicking so we called Alym and he immediately snapped into action solving the problem. He quickly arranged for ground transport early the next morning from Nairobi to the Tanzanian border. Our guide, Usiah, picked us up and we barely missed a beat, seeing elephants and lions that afternoon in Tarangire. This level of service was well beyond our expectations.
Usiah was a wonderful guide and has decades of experience. He has a sixth sense for where the animals reside and was able to bring us to them well before other guides. Over a week's time, were able to see over a dozen cheetah, at least 50 lions, as well as multiple leopards and rhino, which are unfortunately quite rare and endangered. We experienced the wild drama of the Serengeti, seeing the Great Migration and predators on the hunt. We came back with incredible photos and memories and cannot recommend Alym and East Africa Wild highly enough! Stop reading through reviews and call Alym; I'm so glad we did!

Excellent all Around!
We are from Canada. Had a wonderful trip to Africa organized flawlessly by Go2Africa. Experienced, flexible, responsive- everything you want when travelling to a part of the world where you need to be organized , comfortable, and feel safe. We worked with with Lauren who was terrific, and able to seamlessly correspond and organize things for us despite the big time zone difference when communicating. Most important- when some health issues arose on the trip, Lauren and her team were available over the holiday period and responsive, trying their best to make the changes necessary for our comfort and safety. It’s easy to rate a company when all goes well on a trip, but the mark of a quality, client centred company and personnel is when changes and adjustments are needed when something goes wrong. High marks to Go2Africa for the follow up and care given from day one. Highly recommended company. You will be in good hands. Don’t hesitate to use them. Thank you Go2 Africa!

Beyond Expectations.
I could have given more stars but I can only give 5 stars. This was our 4th safari to Africa but the first booking with Australken and we booked for gorilla safaris as I was going to be in Uganda for work so I thought that after I finished ,my family of six can join me and I was really happy with the arrangement's that Zippy made for us , my son,s enjoyed the expedition so much, it was nice to see tears in their eyes, as this what they really wanted to do for a long time. I am looking forward to coming back and doing a real safari with Australken.

Unbelievably personalized service creating my IDEAL itinerary - could NOT have been better!
Jason worked diligently, generously, congenially, and with complete knowledge of the camps, experiences, and costs of what was available. We exchanged many emails during which time he was informative, courteous, prompt, and proactive. He tailor made the trip that was right for me, listing to all of my needs and requirements. The two camps I visited, and by his recommendation, were absolutely flawless in terms of amenities, service, ambiance, excellent meals, creative surprises, and excellent animal viewing... The trip was successful and memorable beyond my wildest dreams. I highly recommend Jason and Paperjet.

Safe pair of hands
Ker and Downey made us feel looked after all the way. The bespoke itinerary was exactly what we were looking for, and they even threw in some nice surprises. Their agent met us for breakfast during our stop in Cape Town, and had very useful local knowledge and recommendations.

I was certainly overwhelmed with how my parents package was handled by the team. I planned a surprise safari for my parents anniversary. Thank you Diana and Mutemi.
