First ever safari trip and it's been AMAZING!
It's my first ever safari trip and it has been AMAZING! Wayne's recommendation for Kapama Southern Camp is spot on. The guides (Selby, Lebu, Lani) are highly knowledgeable and their tracking skills are proven - saw all big 5 within my first 3 game drives and I even got to see the lions feeding on the gnu! And everything's up close! The hospitality at Kamapa Southern Camp is top-notch and the food is excellent. Wayne is highly responsive and reliable. Highly recommend anyone's considering a safari trip to go with The Kruger Safari Co. It's been an eye-opening experience and I am looking forward to more safari trips with them in the future.

Amazing trip and tour!
The trip went very smoothly, we got a private tour with our small kids (8 and 5 years old). All was provided, from the boarders crossings, to blankets for the early morning cold to meals and snacks/tea. It was a full day of Safari both in land and on the river. All was magical and definitely something we will remember for the rest of our life.

Best tour agency with kind and friendly workers, who are real experts in their field!
Dear travellers and everyone who wants to become one!
In June 2024 I fullfilled my dream and travelled to Tanzania. Akondo Adventures made it very easy and comfortable for me to start the journey from Germany to Tanzania. Very excited I started to the new country. From Frankfurt I flew to Arusha. Boris, the founder of Akondo Adventures, picked me up at the airport and brought me to my hotel. After one day relaxing and enjoying the traditional food of Tanzania I went to Arusha Nationalpark for safari. It was an adventure of a lifetime! I saw a lot of animal in their natural habitat. It was very impressing! The guide, his name was Bwana, knows the Arusha Nationalpark very well and knows where you can find even the rare black and white colobus monkeys. But my highlight were a group of giraffes who had a small baby with them. It was just two to three months old, Bwana told me. We had a tasty lunch with a view over the lake Momella.
All in all I thank Akondo Adventures and specially Boris to make my dream come true. I won’t forget the time in Tanzania and I miss the peaceful and wonderful nature there. If you have the chance, take the time and visit Tanzania with Akondo Adventures! Enjoy, I’m excited to read your review here soon! Greeting and hakuna matata, Lena from Germany :)

A 6 day bespoke wonderful safari tour
We were 6 people ranging in age from 10 to 80, and all of us had an amazing time. We owe a big thanks to Fahari Safaris for organising a wonderful tour for us, during which we visited the Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Lake Manyara National Park and Tarangire National Park. Each offered different landscapes and wildlife experiences, including a 2 hour walk with a park ranger. And we owe a special thanks also to our wonderful guide and driver, Fileman, who ensured not only that we saw so many amazing animals, but who took great care of us throughout. Good value for money and highly recommended.

Best experience of my life!
We were on a group of 11 people and spent 9 days traveling across Botswana and Victoria Falls. The trip was truly amazing! We had the itinerary designed specifically for our interests and it was spotless!
The team was truly amazing! The guides were so passionate about animals and what they did. Very knowledgeable and dedicated to showing us the best there was to see out there!
The staff team was super kind, we always found our camp super organized and clean. We appreciated the hot showers and dust free tents a lot. Amazing food, as well. We truly appreciated having meals prepared for our intolerances.
Anna was kind and always available. Recommended!

GodFree is the best tour guide I have ever travelled with. Very fun, very serious, very aware.
Our trip to Tanzania was honestly great! We explored the Serengeti, Tarangire, the olduvai gorge and the crater of humankind. Apart from checking almost every animal off our list, we had the oportunity to connect with such powerful and energetic places. This kind of disconnection and self connection is not easy to come by now a days.
Godfree was our tourguide. He is honestly one of the nicest people I have met. We not only taught me to speak swahili in 4 days but he also proved him self as a sensitive person and a nature lover and protector. He is very smart and serious in what he does but he is always very fun aswell. I would recomment Godfree to anyone who is looking to have an amazing, safe and unforgettable experience in Tanzania.

Over 20 years of experience and safe for women only groups
We traveled in a group of 6 women for a 50th birthday celebration. Michael treated us like family. Michael and Nelson were very flexible and able to change plans throughout the trip to locate the animals and curate the best safari experience possible.
In our first camp,
we were treated to an amazing luxury bush tent experience - an elephant even walked through our camp one morning!
A group of 30 giraffes crossed a road in front of us in Tarangire, the next day an elephant herd (with babies!!!) passed our truck and we witnessed the elephants picking up and blowing the red sand to moisturize after their baths. We also caught several hippos bathing and splashing around. And we cannot forget the sightings of ostriches and various species of antelope.
Michael was informative about the history of not only the wildlife, but also the geology and people of Tanzania. We had a quick stop at the home of the Leakey's research labs and the nutcracker man and homo habilis.
Upon entering the Serengeti a pride of lions was waiting for us just beyond the gate!!! It was almost as though it was staged it was such a spectacular sighting. Before coming on the safari, I was not prepared for the awesome spectacle of witnessing the mass of wildebeest, zebra, gazelle and impala in migration. The single file lines of animals and the sheer numbers are awe inspiring.
Ngorongoro crater was straight out of a story book. It was like visiting Noah's Ark. We were able to view 3 rhinos, flocks of pink flamingos, and so many other large bird varieties as well as the rest of the animals - except giraffes which cannot scale the crater walls!
We stayed at several Serena properties, and perhaps my favorite one was the tent camp, Mbuzi Mawe. It is perched above the plain with a stunning view, baboons also camped in the property and came home to join us for dinner.
The final park we visited Lake Manyara Park, provided close access to view monkeys and baboons. It was just unbelievable.
Because of the experience that Michael and Nelson provided, I feel like Tanzania is home and I am already planning my next trip with Cape Dogs!

SAFARI? HABARI!
Just returned from an exciting private Safari with Migration Venture.
Denis is a dynamic young tour guide with an excellent sight able to spot animals from miles...4 on 5 of the bigs!!!
Also from Lake Natron to Olduvai Gorge we could rely on the support of other local guides very knowledgeable regarding flora and fauna copiously present all around us.
Tented accommodations are an absolute must if you truly want to experience the authentic safari, especially in the Serengeti, and game drives quite exciting!
Thank you Migration Venture, I had an incredible birthday celebration!

Great experience, great people
We just arrived from the three days tour. Tired, confused but enthusiastic. Simon Ngowa was the complete man for us, a great guy. Super driver, biologyst, kind interface, a multiple cultural guide, who take care of us in every moment. The Oakland Tours and Safari provide us a reliable car, and we can override the rough roads.
Thank you for all you did for us! Recomand all.
