More experiance with Dunas Safari
I have had the possiblity to join and experiance again the professionell Organisation Team at Dunas Safari.
The complete trip, starting with the car, the different lodges and adventure tours was organized by Dunas and I have to say that it was again very precise and perfectly organized. I was treated very good and all my questions had been answered promptly and if problems occured I got help immediately.
If I would have to mention something special I would recommend to visit the new Lodge La Rochelle. A wonderfull spot with fantastic food and good service. Please book the bush dinner, unforgettable! Thanks to Pedro on site, well done!
Finally again I am looking forward to see this impressive country again and Dunas Safari, with Pedro, Janine, Ivo and the team made this trip just outstanding. Thank you Dunas

Safari tour to manyara, Serengeti and ngorongoro
We had a very nice trip with Safari guide and driver Harun. We saw all the big animals and had the luck to stay in very nice accomodations with Kubu Kubu as best experience ever!

Not what was agreed or paid for
I agreed and paid for a 'safari' covering the Mara and Serengeti, with some other parks. This was Jan-Feb 2017.
The bottom line to my problem with it all was that I did not get what was agreed (in detail) and paid for. I also lost days off my holiday as a result. I have e-mail evidence etc to support all of this.
It became apparent that some of the things that were agreed were unlikely anyway due to distances and travel connections, in which case, why were they agreed?
I (mostly) enjoyed my safaris, but this was thanks to the actual providers, not to TAAS, who as far as I could tell were only sub-contracting me anyway.
I was meant to be mostly mid-range, but ended up mostly budget, and some of that was severe end of budget.
In practice, especially for solo travellers or couples, you are likely to be passed on to other companies. Many companies barely have offices never mind their own vehicles, etc, they just sub-contract, sometimes many times, and slice money off the top.
As such I would advise paying a little more and sticking to firms with actual offices and their own vehicles and some history, and make your own group if you can. If Serengeti, perhaps wait till you get to Arusha and have a good look at the numerous options available.
The economics and logistics of all the above is understandable and acceptable, but only if clear and transparent. What I can't accept is being promised one thing and then being given another, largely inferior thing.

A wonderful experience!
Oakland tour and safaris organised a splendid budget safari for us. Our safari guide was most enthusiastic, and the company was very responsive to my email queries.

Fantastic service!
It was a last minute booking and our main condition was a private game viewing vehicle. In google search I have come across krugerpark.com and consultant Ruben helped me to narrow it down to number of suitable places. He worked with us all through the weekend and even at the late hours to make sure that we find the best place for the best price and with the vehicle we wanted. I never thought it will be possible but he did it! We have spend the most amazing weekend in Kapama Karula and I have had a best birthday in my life! And without Ruben it wouldn't have happened.

A Brilliant Trip Accommodation good, food excellent, guides good.
All arrangements made on line comfortably from home. Zambezi Safari gave the best suggestions for the trip we wanted. Transport to parks went perfectly. We saw all the animals on our wish list, guides wonderful and extremely knowlegable. Accommodation good, food excellent. Even gave us the best weather.

The most incredible experience of my life.
The tour was incredible, and even despite having various issues with our payment, Edris was incredibly understanding and patient with us, and allowed us to take time to figure out our situation before sending us safely on our way. The sights were breathtaking, our driver was very keen on finding a lion for us and he did! I will never forget this experience and I will definitely be doing another safari with Uzuri again in the near future.

Amazing experience with Red Africa Safaris
We had an amazing experience with our guide, Jaco. His friendliness, passion and knowledge made our trip unforgettable. We will return to the Krüger park some day, and when we do, we wont hesitate to do the booking through Red Africa Safaris.

Great Experience
We took a trip in Uganda to Murchison Falls. Ceasar, our guide and driver, took excellent care of us and made sure that we were in the optimum places to see the wildlife and sights. A memorable experience.
