Fantastic experience. Shaheen and Fareen are amazing and provide first rate personal service.
We have travelled with Wild Destinations twice now and both of our parents have gone as well. We have no hesitation in recommending them. They provide customized itineraries and put a great deal of thought into the parks to go to and what the best accommodations would be. We travelled with our two boys (9 and 11) and Shaheen and Fareen made sure that their interests were taken into account. They had an amazing experience. If you go with Wild Destinations I have no doubt you will have a trip of a lifetime.

Amazing experience
Our experience during the safari in Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngoro Ngoro was absolutely amazing. We have been really impressed not only by the wildlife but also by the landscape and the experience with the people.
Our guide has been really professional and friendly, we sincerely hope he gets the right salary for the hard work he does: driving for ours, making sure we enjoy the safari and see all the animals, taking care about our accommodation and carrying all the necessary stuff.
Only negative side were the toilets at the camping site in Serengeti, they for sure require more care and cleaning, also considering the cost of the safari, they should be improved.

Botswana Wildside, superb safari.
This was our 5th Sunway Safari, and we are in our mid and late 70's. Although we had done this safari before (2009), it was so good that we wanted to take our daughter on it. It not only lived up to expectations, but exceeded them. Our guides Wayne and Zambo were amazing, full of knowledge, which they readily passed on to us. Wayne was a wonderful cook ( we are vegetarians ), which helped make our holiday great. The banter between Wayne, Zambo and all of us turned a great safari into a superb one. Not only did we see some amazing animals, but we came away knowing far more about them thanks to Zambo and his in depth knowledge. Although very hot up to 43deg, we would highly recommend this trip.

An epic climb with a great company
I'm so glad I went with Barafu for my climb. Having completed a few different similar trips around the world, I can easily say Barafu is among the best. Being a smaller company, you get a very personalised service and it really makes a huge difference.
Our guides, Sauly & Jonas were awesome. They were always in touch with where we were and made sure we always knew what was happening and were safe/comfortable. Our vitals were checked nightly during a briefing about the next day.
The food was amazing, with a good variety and great quality. The porters and whole team during the climb were great. They were friendly and engaging with us and getting into camp each day to find warm washing water, a setup tent and fresh popcorn was a welcome treat.
While on our climb, it became very obvious that there is a big difference between companies and the level of service - it made me really glad we went with Barafu. I honestly can't say enough good things about the whole trip with the Barafu team, especially our guides, they were amazing.

A bespoke tour adapted to our personal interestsc
Communication was very good. The driver was safe, and adapted the details of the tour to our own wildlife preferences. Accommodation was very good

Excellent hiking trip to the top of Kilimanjaro
We were guided on a hiking trip to the top of Kilimanjaro. Everything was very well organized, fun, and professional. It was one of the best trips of my life.

Best safari holiday (wet and wild). Weather was not good but the game ranger made it worth while. It was worth every cent. The food was also great. The reception and the rooms exceptional.

Excellent service
A week for a business trip was scheduled for me in Johannesburg. I wanted to extend my stay for another week to spend some time with my son with a Safari. Tried with some websites, but the were quite obscure and confusing especially when you have never done a safari before. At some point I landed on the safari.com website with the possibility to converse with a representative. I talked to Annemarie Linda and she helped me to find a programme with the budget I gave and the availability of lodges. She really did a great job and everything she organised was perfect. She was available at all times to answer to any questions I had.
Thank you very much Annemarie and Safari.com
