A safari experience never to be forgotten, leaving you counting the days until the next one
This is my 2nd safari with Shaun and Charles and it felt like meeting up with old friends. Shaun's communication regarding the safari has always been exceptional, never leaving any question unanswered and when you arrive at Camp you are prepared and ready . The transport from the airport made our lives so much easier and we got to know the other photographers on the journey, stopping for lunch and enough pit stops to stretch our legs and buy refreshments. When we arrived, we all felt comfortable together and our first game drive was so easy and relaxed.
The camp was exceptional, the accommodation was pristine, comfortable and relaxing. The food was sublime and as a vegetarian, my fussy culinary requirements were more than catered for.
Shaun and the team at Camp were exceptionally attentive hosts and nothing was too much for them.
The uniqueness of Shaun's safari's is what keeps me coming back. I love the remoteness of the Camp, the fact that we track every animal and where each encounter with wildlife is yours alone. Shaun has a massive amount of knowledge and patience and a huge and healthy respect for the game we are viewing. My March photographic safari has become my annual spoil to myself and I shall await next year's March safari with great enthusiasm.
My only complaint is that it was too short and March 2018 is too is too far away.

Amazing Safari!!
My girlfriend and I joined "World Tours & Safaris Tanzania" for our first Safari, 4-Day Amazing Tanzania Safari Experience, and it was simply incredible!
Even though we have got a bit nervous at the very beginning, but Richard could still work it out by promptly replying our emails and clearly stated all the details. When we arrived getting off from a 4-hour delayed bus, the pick-up has already been arranged, without the need to wander for our hostel at dusk.
And our driver/guide and cook were both outclassed! Horace, was just amazing, always spotting animals way before we could, even after half-day driver, and without him, we might not be able to spot all "The Big 5" in just 4 days. And our cook was great too! we just love all the food he made, especially the veggie soup, and everything was prepared when we just finished our game-drive.
I could not recommend you guys enough!!

I had an awesome experience with Solaris Tours and Travel during my holiday in Nairobi ,Kenya.
Once i requested the package, the information was sent to me almost immediately and the service was up to my expectation. From my view, i got the real value of my money and would not hesitate to engage you again during my next holiday. My safari to Maasai mara National park was awesome and full of vivid memories. Would recommend you to my friends at any given time.

Expert advice and arrangements
Being new to Africa travel, we had only vague ideas about where we'd like to go on safari and what kind of camps and tours were available. We also started planning a bit late for getting the best camps in the best season. Tailormade Africa's Clyde Beaty talked us through the options and came back with a perfect two-week tour of Northern Zimbabwe, including four different camps -- a mobile camp in Hwange NP, a private lodge on Lake Kariba, a small seasonal camp in Mana Pools NP and finally a more elaborate and luxurious camp in a concession , also at Mana Pools. Once in Zimbabwe everything went smoothly (despite an airline delay arriving); all the land connections and internal small plane flights were as planned. The the camps were each different and each had its attractions; taken together they were a fantastic introduction to Southern Africa wildlife and safari culture. Hope we can go back soon -- we would definitely do it through Tailormade!

My annual getaway
I can't see myself going on safari with any other safari company. The lodge, food, company, views, animals - the whole package is what makes me go again and again without any doubts. Shaun, the owner, goes to every length to keep his guests happy. His knowledge, sense of humour and overall warm personality makes any day in the bush a memorable one.

Fantasitc, start to finish
I can't recommend Avocet enough, from start to finish we were looked after brilliantly. Out driver/Guide edgar was top class, as was our cook Hadji - no complaints at all about the food, it was fantastic. Edgar went to great lengths to make sure we got to see all of the 'BIG 5' - I cant find fault with any of the trip or Avocet - 5 stars....

Very professional, available, flexible - I strongly recommend!!!
I thank Ryan for the great support in the organization before the safari and I do thank Doug our guide during 4 wonderful days in Kruger for his knowledge, his patience and his kindness.
This company deserve to be well known and I do recomment to everybody reading my comments not to hesitate. I've contacted many of safari agency and I didn't find more profesionnal than Adventure Anywhere (Ryan is very reactive). I saw many of their competitors on the road of Kruger Park who drives very fast and miss a lot only thinking about Big5 to get better tips at the end (a shame to miss other animals...).
Long life to this Adventure Anywhere !!!

Amazing trip! Thanks to Kenya Walking Survivors!
I had only 2 days available on weekend and I wanted to see elephants. That's the reason why I chose Amboseli National Park. My friend suggested me a few companies to choose from and I decided Kenya Walking Survivors with several reasons including fast response and great reviews. I was right! I got almost immediate response. Then the services were great tailored with budget I had. Amazing tour company. Highly recommended! You won't be disappointed.

Photo tour to Masai Mara National reserve
When planning a photo tour, you can never be 100% sure of success. Much depends on the professionalism of the local staff but also from luck. I was lucky in this tour and I saw all interested to me animals, and brought home a lot of positive emotions and photos. And thanks to local staff - they are very positive and did a lot to make a tour successful.

Safari surprise at its best!
The booking went easy via travel agency. Shortly before our departure to Botswana we were informed about the heavy rainfalls during the last weeks and that the itinerary probably had to be changed, due to flodded roads. No problem for us. After arrival, tourguide Eddy came up with plan B, which turned out to be a great alternative. (He already had plans C to Z in mind, since nobody knew about the exact road conditions.) We visited a lot of beautiful places, whatched many many animals, stayed at great campgrounds. And we had a fantastic tourguide and camp crew, who never let us know about the stress they were having with all the obstacles in the stern wash of a cyclone.
The camp gear consisted of large tents (even large people can stand up straight) with en suite bathroom in the back (hole in the ground with a toilet seat, bucket shower), comfortable cots, night stand, a small cabinet. We had the fabulous diner (really, the cuisine à la bush was always delicious and plenty) in the dining tent after sitting around the fire in the evening, having a first drink. Did I mention lunch? Depending on the day's schedule, we had lunch in the camp or a picnic in the bush (always yummy).
Eddy, you are an excellent tour guide, you did just about everything to let this safari of a lifetime come true. You brought us to all the interesting places, let the animals out of the cages just in time, and never got stuck in the worst of mud.
Mano, Steven and Matteo: The best camp crew imaginable, you made the camp a reall home for us.
Thank you all!
