He was friendly, accommodating, attentive to our needs,prompt and reliable.
Tongesai was very quick to answer our emails and answer all the questions we asked. Our adventures started within hours of being picked up from the airport. Our days started early and we stayed busy enjoying the activities throughout the day with enough time to telax a bit before dinner. Our safari guides were very knowledgeable and were able to answer any question we asked. The accommodations were first class at every stop. The success of our trip was due to the expert planning by Tongesai. Everything went as planned and there were no unexpected hiccups. It was a trip well worth the money spent. We would highly recommend Cultural Vibes if you are planning a trip to the Botswana, Zimbabwe area. In fact, we are already working with Tongesai for a return trip next July starting with Kruger National park.

Great safari experience with Suricata Safaris!
The safari arrangements by Suricata were very professional. Even though our arrival flight was delayed, the communication with Suricata worked out and they were waiting for us at the airport. Accommodation worked out well in Arusha, Suricata Boma Lodge as well as in Angata Tented lodges in Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Suricata Boma Lodge was particularly nice! The food was great in all of these places and in our picknick lunches. Our guide Elias was great and had a very good eye for animals. Definitely recommend their services to anyone. Thank you Suricata Safaris!

Fantastic safaritrip in wonderful Kenya - an unrivaled experience
Unscripted Safaris (Lewis Mungo) provides excellent service and combine their know-how with our wishes and suggestions. We booked really late but Lewis still found us a mix of mid range and luxury lodges in all of the parks.
Our guide Jeremy was a lucky match with our family. He is extremely knowledgeable and has a deep respect for nature.
To everyone who has Kenya on their bucket list: do it ! you won't regret.
To everyone who decides to go : book through Unscripted ! you won't regret.
Thanks Unscripted team, for your dedication to the job, to nature, to the customer.

Absolutely perfect
I've been on several trips arranged by Kafu Safaris as I've traveled around Uganda many times. Comparing to my experience with other companies, I always come back to using Kafu as the level of service, just always delivers that little "extra". My tourguide Deo, always acts very professional, paying attention to any needs and makes a pleasant company.
My warmest recommendation.

Incredible safari, great tour company and good communications
After extensive research and consideration, I decided to go on my first-ever safari with Pilgrimage Safaris in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, and I have no regrets. From the very beginning, the communication with Nowatus was fantastic. He was extremely helpful and always made sure to organize the best tour for me. Nowatus is a kind and trustworthy person, and I had the chance to get to know him a bit better during a ride to Moshi right after my safari. I'm happy to support him through my booking, knowing the money is going to good hands, which was important to me before booking my safari.
I opted for a budget camping safari, and it was an incredibly thrilling experience. I was fortunate enough to see all of the Big 5, which is not always guaranteed. Our guide, Zuma, was undoubtedly one of the best guides in Tanzania and made sure that we had a truly unique experience. As a solo traveler, it was important for me to be part of a great group, and Nowatus did an excellent job placing me with an international group that grew very close over the three days. We had so much fun together, and I'm grateful to have shared this unique experience with them.

Dume can design your Kenya safari trip wonderful.
My friend and I chose Dume Africa from at least five hostels. Our guide was John, who loved animals and loved his work. So he was very enthusiastic about introducing each animal to us and telling us how to tell the different species of antelope. He has made us feel very reliable throughout the journey, with 30 years of experience.

"This is a paradise. There is everything"
We booked a "5 days safari" as our honeymoon.
Our guide John met us at the airport and made us feel comfortable during all the week long.
We visited Tarangire, Serengeti North, South and Central and Ngorongoro.
John always looked for the less touristy, true and most suggestive points of the parks (what we asked for)
In a few days we managed to see the big five (and much more...)
The accommodations in tents and lodges were excellent as were the lunch boxes.
As John said "This is a paradise. There is everything".

Top safari company in Tanzania–reliable crew, amazing experiences with nature, people, and diversity
We had the best experience with Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris! The team was incredibly reliable and accommodating. Our guide, Francis, went above and beyond to ensure we experienced everything, and thanks to him, we saw the Big 5, leopards and a cheetah hunting—truly mind-blowing moments! Camping in the park was surprisingly comfortable, and our chef, Dullah, worked magic in the bush with his "Magic Box," serving the most amazing meals. We would do this trip again any time— though Safaris aren’t cheap, an absolutely outstanding experience!

Prompt, professional and considerate. My safari holiday exceeded all my expectations!
Sandra promptly provided me with options and worked with me to massage these into an itinerary that met my requirements. I appreciated the professional manner in which Sandra stayed in touch with me leading up to my holiday including speaking to me by phone to run through any last minutes questions I had. I appreciated Sandra telling me that she is particularly interested in ensuring that females travelling solo feel safe and have the best experiences. With my trip, these goals were certainly achieved! My holiday went without any hiccups and at all times I felt safe with the local drivers and they made a point of ensuring I felt safe! I met some lovely people.
I chose to visit three different national parks so that I could experience more of what South Africa has to offer. The lodges suggested by Sandra exceeded all of my expectations and the standard of accommodation, meals and safari drives were fantastic! In addition, the staff were so friendly and orientated to ensure you had the best experience and wanted for nothing! Each lodge was unique (Sabi Sands - Arathusa Safari Lodge, Pilanesberg National Park - Tambuti Lodge, and Madikwe National Park - Motswiri Lodge). It's impossible to choose one over the other!
The decision to have a luxury and indulgent safari holiday was also my 60th Birthday gift to me as I was celebrating this milestone whilst in South Africa. Sandra organised, unbeknownst to me, for each of the lodges to help me celebrate my birthday. I was treated to the most wonderful birthday cakes and singing from the local staff. These personal events contributed to a memorable birthday and added to my overall experience of my safari adventure and holiday in South Africa! Thank you Sandra for all the beautiful surprises!
Overall, I chose Traipsing Africa Safari's and Tours to organise my holiday because I was overwhelmed with the options and how to pull a holiday together. they had such positive reviews from other clients, that I felt I just had to approach them. Sandra did a fantastic job and took all the logistical organising and worry away from me. I just had to sit back and enjoy which Sandra kept emphasising to me was all I needed to do because she was taking care of everything else! I'm extremely pleased to have chosen Traipsing Africa Safaris and Tours to arrange my holiday in South Africa and have already recommended them to friends. I will definitely call on Sandra's expertise to arrange future South African Safaris for me. Many thanks Sandra to you and your team for THE most wonderous holiday!
