Review about South Africa by hhm
Excellent infrastructure for tourism, plenty of options (tours/hotels/restaurants) for a wide budget range, plenty of information available online.

The best of the best in Tanzania adventures.
The design of Mazingira adventures are geared towards those of us wanting to see Tanzania in all of its glory, particularly wildlife. The guides are professional, knowledgeable, fun, excellent drivers and also provide interesting insights that add even more to the experience of a lifetime. Highly recommend.

Excellent trip; I really couldn't ask for more in terms of what I got!
The trip was wonderful! Antje did a great job of selecting two camps and explained the tradeoffs between spending more money and the differences in experience. Once I arrived, they really did a wonderful job of making sure everything was taken care of.
On my final day, "winding down" in Cape Town, the manager (whose name, alas, I don't recall) took me out for drinks, talking about the experience and some things I saw there. We spoke a bit about future plans, and I have to really give him credit for something you don't see often: He told me, "based on what you've seen and enjoyed, you really should go to South America some time; you'd love it. We can't book that, but I've been and highly recommend the area." It's rare for a company to say "we can't sell you this, but you should buy it," and I respect anyone who does highly.
If I had one complaint, it would be that I don't think they adequately warned me up front that, by arriving in the wet season, I ran the risk of not seeing as much, with many animals hiding in the thick foliage. As it turned out, that wasn't a problem at all, with some amazing experiences, but what the guides warned me up front when I arrived (that it could be a limited experience) didn't really match what Adventura said. Keep in mind, I traveled in the off-season and KNEW it was the off-season, and this really only applies in the first quarter of the year, when this is a problem. The work they did arranging it and the trip itself was spot-on, but I'd have liked a bit more advice about the risks of off-season adventuring.
That all being said, I really don't want to allow that to take away from how highly I recommend them for the experience! They clearly knew the area (Botswana) well, were able to make very intelligent and helpful recommendations as to the different camps, and in the end, it was a trip I will never forget. When and if I make a trip back, I'll certainly reach out to them for help again!

Excellent introduction to Namibia! Quality tour from start to finish.
Nature Travel Namibia provided an excellent introduction to the marvels of Namibia. The logistics were seamless, the trip itself was amazing, accommodations just right , our guide Kit was perfect , and I would go back with them anytime . Esmari, running their operation, who I have not met but have corresponded with before, during and after the trip, was professional, alert to specific needs, and a delight to deal with. My son, currently a Peace Corps volunteer in Comorous, met me in Windhoek for this trip. It was a trip of a lifetime and it could not have been any better .
I recommend Nature Travel Namibia without reservation.

Great experience
We had a great experience with Bison Safaris. Maggie (the Managing Director) responded promptly to every of our questions. She was extremely useful and flexible with our arrangements.
Peter (our driver) was equally very accommodating. He waiting patiently at Mt Longonot during our hike and drove us around Masai Mara, doing his best to show us as much as possible and as many animals as he could find during our safari. Many thanks to both!

The Call of the Wild
I have never been a big fan of Africa, and of such safaris in particular. I have to admit I was wrong. The safari experience we had in Tanzania was one of the best in my life. Great places, great animals and great people, all in 6 days. Serengeti was definitely the most wonderful adventure with staying overnights in tents under the sky full of stars. Moyo Experience provided us with everything at the top level: great driver, reliable vehicle, comfy accommodation, tasty food and unforgettable memories (and photos). Thank you, Moyo Experience!

Delightfull, wonderfull service and extremly friendly employers!
Was a wonderfull service, they were more than happy to help if we had en question and really flexible about which hours to meet and the place to be. We got a nice decent 4x4 car to get around in, and a really cheerfull and funny driver/guide - cant put a finger on a single thing he could have done better. The only thing we thought could be better, was the safari guide - he didnt have much info about the animals and didnt really say that much, and he looked like he was bored most of the time even a bit sleepy - but I dont think he was a part lf the bureau.
But Hello Tanzania, I would recommend it.
