A really great way to see a beautiful country and we have had a wonderful holiday.
Nature Travel made it simple from the outset to arrange our trip to Namibia . They structured everything around what we were hoping to see in the time available. Communication was excellent and Esmari went out of her way to find accommodation that fitted our itinerary and we were very happy with her choices, some of which were amazing. Our guide, Lucky, was fantastic, knowledgeable and flexible to our needs and everything from a logistics point of view was taken care of efficiently. It has all added up to a fantastic holiday and I would recommend Nature Travel to anyone wanting to see Namibia either for the first time, or as a return visitor as I am- it has been a memorable experience.

South Africa and a Safari at Madikwe National Reserve is a must on your bucket list
Madikwe was fabulous. The 260 square mile preserve is large enough to be home to all of the animals and birds you want to see on a safari (and many you have never heard about) but is not crowded with tourists and allowed a really intimate viewing of the wildlife. We stayed 2 nights each at two wonderful small lodges at different sides of the park and really feel we got to see different aspects of the area. For others who had been to safaris elsewhere we heard that off road viewing permitted here is not allowed elsewhere and therefore we were able to see more wildlife up close.

A great Safari
The easy way to describe our safari was that it exceeded our expectations in every way:
- the safari was very well organized, obviously they have been doing this for a while
-the accommodation was very good, better than we expected, and part of the overall adventure
-we were lucky to take the Transkalahari from South to North. I think the reverse would have been less fun
-the truck that took us from Cape Town to Victoria falls was the right vehicle for the task at hand. It was a bit rough on occasion, but a less rugged vehicle would have been damaged by the rough roads
-the food provided (or the recommendations, when food not provided) exceeded our expectations always
-with these kind of surveys, one is often requested to evaluate something or other on a scale of one to ten. I will almost never give a ten rating, as most people or facilities have room for improvement. In this case, I am happy to give Misheck the guide a solid ten. Everything he did was in the excellent category

9 days including 2 days gorillas / 2 days chimp
wonderful experience ! came alone in Uganada for 9 days. During the negotiation time, i was in touch with Hajarah who was really reactive, replying to my email right away. Finally agreed on the trip/price, I arrived at 315 am, Tom, my guide was there, and drove straight to the chimp area (around 7 hours drive). he has been really flexible, the lodge/food were good, and i got an amazing time in Uganda. i recommend them with no hesitation.

great kili climb and safari trip
Simon was very professional and helped organise our trip. He was always very responsive and supported us with booking all the different parts of our trip. He booked the Kili Climb with Zara Tours who were excellent! Abely, Emmanuel and their team from Zara Tours were brilliant, we were treated like royalty and they got us to the top of Kilimanjaro - we could never have done it without them! Highly recommend.
Our safari included 3 parks - Taragine, Serengeti and Ngororo - all fantastic and managed to see all of the big five! Our guide Goodluck was excellent - so knowledgeable and really passionate about making sure we saw all the animals - all excellent.
Simon was a great communicator - and even though we didn't meet he planned an exceptionally great trip for us!

Unforgetable experience
We were a group of 5 germans (age 30-82!!) on this tour, that was organized by the german agency Diamir, which has a cooperation with Speke Uganda. We started at Entebbe and saw Murchison falls, Kibale forest, Queen Elizabeth NP, Bwindi NP and Rwanda. Our guide Ivan Nsubuga was very competent, dedicated and caring. He spoke excellent german and was very sensible for individual necessities and wishes. He showed us not only wildlife, but also a lot of culture and he gave us a great insight to Uganda. Our driver Moses Niwamanya did a great Job, too, driving us safely on challenging roads. In perfect english he gave a lot of information, as well. Both of them were so friendly and made us feel so comfortable, that I recommend this journey to all my friends.

Knowledgeable, supportive, effective!
Twenty-five years ago, I used Let's Go Travel for a weekend safari; it went great. Twenty-two years ago I used them again for another weekend safari that also was a great experience. This year, on my third visit to Kenya and my visit just to safari, I used them to organize a 12 day visit, fly-in and drive-in safaris to four different areas (Samburu, Maasai Mara, Aberdares and Lake Nakuru. The staff, particularly Angela Githatu, was knowledgeable about the options; we spent over two months emailing back and forth as I changed my mind or I wanted to try and reduce the cost. Angela was always professional, knowledgeable and timely. The trip was spectacular. The organization was top-notch. I plan to use them for any future travel plans to East Africa.

Trustworthy and highly recommendable especially for tailor made trips and constant advice
Dealt with Jane and she is hand on . She fits the safari to suit your requirements and budget . We were a family of four and has a most delightful 10 day safari starting from Nairobi , included white water rafting , headed to the Serengeti via the Maasai
Mara down to the Kilimanjaro . The ride was long but definitely worth it if you have the time as you experience the different landscapes . Jane is so helpful and was extremely satisfied with her organization .

great experience with Buymore Adventures
Nadzua was there before time to receive and greet us. We made a Perfect choice and are more than happy the way things were arranged. Three cheers to Nadzua Matara....
I took quotes from 4 different safari agents for the same Mara Sarova Camp with same itenary but Buymore adventures gave me the best price without any compromise, and fulfilled their promise to our expectation.
Our tour guide come driver Mr. Bonafice was kind and more enthusiastic to show the wild life.
