Dream Come True!
The accommodations were comfortable and very nice (we requested luxury level). The food was good. BUT the staff makes this company first rate! Nelson who manages all the communications and reservations is very responsive answering all your questions and providing all the details to make your trip a success - thank you Nelson. Krish was our guide for our three nights/four days. He greeted us at the airport. Drives very safe. Provides plenty of bottled water. Speaks English. Knows the roads and countries (we visited Rwanda and Uganda). Our luggage was lost by the airline and Krish retrieved it from the airport the next morning and delivered it to us before breakfast. Our gorilla trek was a huge success because we worked with this company that provided everything to make our dream come true! You can check out all the companies but I promise you that you won't be disappointed going with Africa Adventure Safaris. I know we weren't! The vehicle we traveled in was clean. The gorilla trek was a dream come true! Thank you Nelson, Krish and Africa Adventure Safaris!

An amazing experience in Kenya
After contacting more than 10 safari companies we decided to choose Khanga Safaris as they were by far the most competitive and responsive company. They offered by far the best price,accommodation and they were the most responsive. They also offered a whatsapp service number meaning that they are reachable with immediate response. Lawrence made himself available 24/7 by replying to our queries which was very important to us as we booked a 7days safari. (30th June to 6th July)
Our guide was Chris and we could not have hoped for a better guide than him; knowledgeable, experienced and a very cautious driver, he knew when and where to find the animals. We saw the big 5 including a Lion hunting.
I would dfinately recommend Khanga Safaris!

Uhuru Travel & Tours is a trustable company!
The communication was very good from the start. The driver, Issa Abdallah, picked us up at the hotel in Dar-es-salaam at the exact time agreed upon. Sunday Dec 4th 2016 we started our adventure! A 3-day safari tour to Mikumi spending two nights at Stanley's Kopje. The trip from Dar till Mikumi took 6 hours and the safari started once we were inside the park. In the evening we had an exellent dinner and had an early night. The lions were there...and the hyenas, they woke me up in the middle of the night while my husband went on snoring!

Amazing
When we were looking into options to arrange our trip to South Africa we found Pembury Tours. After discussing with Heidi our dates and requirements, she prepared the most amazing tailor made tour.
In spite that our travel arrangements were requested in a rather short notice, she found the best options for our especial itinerary. Every Hotel, Lodge, transfer and tour guide made our first visit to South Africa a memorable experience.
Thank you Heidi for your dedication and the welcome package containing the most useful information.
This was one of the best trips in our life and we are already planing dates for next year.....of course with the assistance of Pembury Tours!

Excellent Time!
We had an excellent time at our safari with Kenya Walking. From the moment that I booked the trip, Mr OT was very communicative and responsive to my questions, and did everything that he can to make me feel comfortable about the trip since this is our first time to Africa.
The land and air transports were organized and the hotels were more than we expected. The lodges were comfortable and beautiful. Our driver/guide Jaffet was knowledgeable about the area and the animals in the safari. He had razor-sharp eyes and I can't believe how he saw half of the animals that we saw during the safari! It was obvious that he has a lot of experience and it enabled us to take amazing photos during the trip.
Overall, would highly recommend them and am planning to book with them again when we go back to Africa!

Easy Travel did an amazing job with our safari to Tanzania from beginning to end.
My husband and I booked our 12 day Tanzania safari with Easy Travel and can honestly say they exceeded our expectations. From the beginning when we started planning the details of the trip, 9 months prior, they were extremely responsive, knowledgeable and professional. The communication throughout was excellent. On the trip we had the best driver/guide one could hope for. Herman is an animal behavior and bird expert. We spent 12 days with him and parted as friends. He really made our trip amazing.
We can't say enough of the team at Easy Travel. Thanks to all of them! We have already recommended them to two friends of ours.

3 days filled with expertly guided game viewing and perfect surroundings, exceeding my expectations.
We had unparalleled service setting up our diverse group. The service and people from the Imbabala lodge were just amazing. The location setting in the jungle was spectacular. Our game guide was amazingly knowledgeable and informative, guiding us from the moment we stepped off the plane, stopping at Victoria Falls for a great afternoon followed by an evening of watching elephants by the river. The food was well prepared, delicious and served in a beautiful setting. The grounds and accommodations were well-maintained and afforded views of wildlife while sitting on your veranda or in the bar. We saw a great diversity of game and birds including elephants giraffes zebras many varieties of antelope all within a few minutes of the base. The river cruise was great. With gracious touches all around.

Couldn't have been better
We took a three day safari in Tanzania and everything went as well as it could go. Starting, before the trip, with the affordable prices, the flexibility in designing a program fitted to our interests and the very detailed information and directions or preparing the trip. Once in Arusha, we found a very warm reception. Natasha, the owner, met us twice (both before and after the safari). The safari itself was perfect, exactly as planned. Additionally, Natasha helped one of us with an unexpected issue, fully unrelated to the safari (an entrance visa to the UAE) in a very efficient way, which resulted in substantial savings. I wholeheartedly recommend Shadows of Africa.

Great service
I shoopped around and African safaris tour Service was the most reasonable price coupled with the highest reviews. Booking the Nassau mara tour with this service turned out to be one of the best decisions we made of our entire trip!
Scheduling was very easy, just a few emails back and forth.
We were greeted punctually at our Serena hotel by driver Hezron. He was very courteous and professional. He ensured a safe trip throughout - we never once felt unnerved by his driving even though the roads themselves are a bit scary. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and well-kept.
Hezron was a gold mine of information and help! When possible, he got us away from traffic and crowds, and got us to great scenic viewpoints. His shop and restaurant recommendations were all right-on and we had no issues at all. The lunch spot in Mahimahiu (and the seat he scored us, with an amazing view) was fantastic.
Hezron even helped me with my food allergies by writing up an Italian warning to pass along to any food server.
Hezron asked our interests and made sure that we had what we needed throughout the day. He helped steer us away from touristy or "middle-man" shops. He even called ahead to a restaurant back in Narok (for after our tour) and we experienced amazing food and service there.
Hezron rally knows his stuff and provides an incredible level of service. I would recommend this agency to anyone.

Friendly, efficient service
Booking a wonderful vacation was made simple by the Zambezi Safari & Travel team. I was given a wide range of information and options to choose from, I told them what I wanted, and it was done. Upon arrival I found everything had been taken care of from transfers to safaris and day trips - all of which exceeded my expectations.
