Incredible
Axis safari were just amazing from start to finish, nothing was too much. Their communication from start to finish was amazing. The accommodation we stayed at was impeccable and the staff treated us first class. I have no words for how hard these guys work on safari, making sure you have the best experience and see as much as possible. We were so impressed and would recommend Axis safari to anyone. I hope to return one day and will 100% be booking with them again!

Professional and Knowledgeable Safari Organization Providing Memorable Safari Tours
My experience with Brilliant Adventures and Safaris was top notch from the booking process up until the end of the Safari.
When deciding to go on a Safari, there are many options to choose from. Part of my reason for choosing Brilliant was their prompt responses and answers to my questions early-on, shout out to Julieth! She was able to give me a detailed itinerary and updated quotes whenever I had a question/suggestion to change our itinerary.
This level of transparency made it easy to know what I was getting for my money and helped me trust that I was in good hands once I arrived to Arusha.
I went on this Safari for my honeymoon, so we decided to stay in luxury and mid-luxury accommodations for the duration of our trip. Each place we stayed was incredible - especially the Melia Serengeti and Melia Ngorongoro.
When I consider the places we stayed, the delicious food we ate, and how many amazing animals we saw, the value you get for the money is phenominal. We would've had a similarly nice animal-viewing experience had we opted to stay in the non-luxury accommondations I'm sure, but for a honeymoon we wanted to add that extra touch of fanciness at the end of each day.
As for the Safari game drives, it became clear that having a good safari guide and driver is the most important aspect of a successful Safari trip, and I can't praise our guide Joshua enough for the time he spent with us. His knowledge of the parks made it possible to see some amazing scenes and each of the big 5 animals. He was also very nice and respectful, and just a fun person to spend 5 days in the car with! The roads are rough, but with a skilled driver, they are at least tollerable. My wife isn't the best with animals (which is funny because we were on a safari), but Joshua's incredible knowledge and calming presense led her to feel very comfortable the entire time.
All in all, I can safely say the our safari organized by Julieth of Brilliant and run by Joshua of Brilliant made memories that will last a lifetime. My wife and I will happily recommend Brilliant Adventures and Safari to anyone looking to travel to Tanzania.

Everything went smoothly.
From the moment we landed in Windhoek and were greeted by our friendly driver, our entire trip was comfortable and convenient. We are so glad we went for the flight safari instead of driving ourselves. The flights were so smooth, the pilot so friendly and informative, that the logistics part of our trip became a joy. Add in the scenic flights, the personalized service upon landing in each location, the amazing accommodations along the way, and the land tours, all made our overall experience highly satisfying. We would recommend them to anyone.

Higher responsible and adventurous
although there were some miscommunication between agent and our tour guide at the very beginning, we got readjusted timely after clarification. Thanks to our guide Raymond. We were guided to see so many different species during every tour, e.g. lion, elephant, giraffe, rhinos, cheetah, flamingo… Overall , the 6-day tour was satisfactory enough. We enjoyed a lot.

Trek Africa Adventures are absolutely awesome!!!
Our safari was out of another world. Thanks to Sylvia and the team for the organization and Communication. Kenya is a magical place and our tour guide Alex went out of his way to bring us closer to nature. He was very knowledgeable about wildlife and knew exactly where to take us to see the big five. He was attentive, kind, and respectful. We had a great time and we recommend Trek Afrika Adventures to anyone willing to visit Kenya for Safari.

Africa Zim Tours and tour guide Cosmas combines to provide a highly enjoyable experience.
Africa Zim provided a good selection of safari tours in southern African countries. Once I had selected the 7 days Victoria Falls/ Hwange/Chobe trip, Pamela from Africa Zim quickly and efficiently organised the itinerary and payment and continued to make updates and alterations that we requested during the tour e.g. afternoon tea at the Vic Falls Hotel. Her efforts made the trip stress free and gave us the best outcome we could hope for.
Our guide and driver, Cosmas, greatly added to our enjoyment with his commentary on life in Zim and Botswana and his lively sense of humour.
He had all our accommodation, driving and game viewing drives well organised and was quick to make alternative arrangements as required e.g. we missed the afternoon game drive on day 1 as our flight from Johannesburg was later than expected so Cosmas called to get us on a night drive instead. Our enquiries about visiting Vic Falls Hotel and the Elephant Walk to purchase carvings resulted in Cosmas requesting transport from Pamela and getting us there in his own time. I would have no hesitation in recommending Cosmas to anyone interested in Zim travel.

Magical trip
Amazing wildlife, excellent hospitality . .Went for 10 days to Amboseli. Ol Pejeta, Samburu, Naivasha, Hells Gate and Masai Mara. While Masai Mara is stunning and most well known, Samburu surprised and stunned us with the wildlife/less crowds. We saw a pride of 9 lions with just 2 vehicles including us for over an hour !!!. Amboseli was good as expected. Ol Pejeta was good for rhinos and Hells gate was a good experience biking with animals. Only Naivasha was a disappointment and not worth it IMHO. People were friendly , service at all lodges top notch and game drives were superb.

Great experience and would recommend to book this tour!
We took the 4 days tour and the days were flying by. The tour is packed with great scenery and a lot of wild animals. We were able to see a lot of animals really close and it was a one of a kind experience. The driver Elias took really good care of us and informed us about the animals we were watching. He was really kind and always tried to adjust to our needs! Another honourable mention was James the Chef - he is also very kind and prepared amazing food for us!

Very good
We have seen many animals with the guide Francis, he is really nice and help us to find the animals that we want to see. And for the Jambo Safari is also good, they offer us another pack of water without charge.
