Great experience!
We went on an 8 day safari with Travel for Change and couldn't have had a better experience. During the initial process of setting the itinerary they were very informative and took our requests and also provided suggestions. Email responses were prompt and we felt like they had our best interests in mind. Once in Kenya our driver Patrick picked us up at the airport and always went the extra mile to make sure our experience was a memorable one. His knowledge of the animals and terrain were remarkable and we were continuously learning new things each day. He also knew exactly where to go and when to see lions and other animals at the right time which only added to the experience. The accommodations they booked for us exceeded expectations an we would highly recommend Travel for Change to anyone!

Great attention to detail!
Booked a 2 day Safari with Avocet this past January. Jeff was very professional and made sure the booking went smoothly with everything involved during the Safari. I highly recommend Avocet Tanzania Safaris!

Everything turned out perfect
We are almost one month back home, but I would like to thank Denise for the great arrangement at Kwantu private game reserve.
Everything was booked very short handed during our trip through ZA. Denise was very helpful and we emailed every time I had wifi access on our way from J'burg to Cape Town. So it took us a couple of days to arrange everything. Eventually the entire stay worked out great. We had a very warm welcome at the resort and the game drives were awesome. Our ranger was great too. We were able to see lions and elephants from a very short distance. So I will definitely recommend East Cape Tours to our friends.

Amazing experience, they know what they have to do to provide a high level service.
First of all, i must say this safari experience was awesome.
In order to improve customer s experience i will refer to one detail: check the gps devices because it showed outdated ways occasionally.
I consider this is like a drop of water in the sea. I recommend Tailor Made Safaris to every person i know.
My girlfriend and i felt them really close during all the tour.

Wonderful experience
Had a fantastic time! Safari was super well organized, offered complementary beverages and snacks, had very nice and knowledgeable guides. The only minor issue was the driver got lost twice. But no big deal, he quickly found the right way and he was also very friendly and shared interesting information about South Africa. All in all I really recommend this company!

great day
Matthew is a wonderful guide. He took me and my husband to Pilanesberg and we had an amazing time in there. We saw a lot of lions, elephants, giraffes...... he has a lot of acknowledgment and he is very patient in explain all to us.

it was a wonderful experience
communications were excellent,services above my expectations and the tour was breath taking.
We've had three good experiences with Wild Wings.
We have been on three journeys with Wild Wings, two to Kruger Park and one to Victoria Falls. One of those to Kruger was in 2008 and the other in 2017, but the satisfaction was the same. They are very cooperative in arranging the journey to suit you and very prompt in their correspondence. They clearly outline what to expect on the days of your safari and come through on what they say. Their guides were very friendly and competent and did whatever they could to make our journey enjoyable. I would recommend Wild Wings as a company you can count on.

Tailormade Africa gave us a special, personal, up-close and real experience.
Our booking agent was Clyde Beaty at Tailormade Africa. He listened to what we wanted, helped us examine the various options and created a trip that met both our desires and budget. The incredible part of the actual trip was how personal it was. Our group of four went on safari with guides who had been in the Zimbabwe outback for decades. In many instances we had both a senior guide (of the quality who teaches, examines, and licenses other guides) and a senior tracker dedicated to the four of us. We were able to track and walk up to a sleeping elephant without waking it, spot rare birds, observe both wild lions unhabituated to humans and a community of somewhat habituated lions who allowed us to observe at close range their cubs playing. The entire experience was very special.

The Most Perfect Safari Experience
I did a 5 day Budget Camping Safari in the Serengeti, Lake Manyara and ngorongoro crater with Avocet. I don't want to mislead anyone by pumping up expectations but this was by far the best safari I have ever gone on (and I've been on a lot). I think the time of year I went was part of it, it was before the rainy season but it wasnt dry so the grass was green and short enough to see animals, it was also not super super hot out which means the animals were active and walking around, there were hardly any other tourists around. The main thing though, was our driver/guide Oze (ask for him if you can) was by far the coolest and best guide I've ever had. He really went way out of his way to make sure we saw what we wanted. The whole time I was very vocal about caring most about cheetahs and he was chasing them down for us. He was super knowledgeable and great to hang out with for a week and just overall a great guy. He had eagle eyes and was spotting leopards half a kilometer away in a tree. Three of the days were in the Seregenti and this is what we saw in total-
56 Lions, 9 Cheetahs, FOUR leopards, FOUR Rhinos, and too many of everything else to count.
The whole experience thru Avocet was perfectly organized and ran like clockwork. Jeff who was my point of contact was very in touch and easy to get a hold of, and he greeted me at my hotel and saw me off at the end to make sure I was happy. The campsite was for real camping, no fences, nothing, you literally sleep in the middle of the serengeti, at night Zebras, Buffalo and Elephants may pay you a visit! The Landcruiser we were in was so cool and rugged, it was a real authentic African Safari experience. You literally couldn't pay thousands of dollars more and have a better experience, this was as good as it gets!!!!
