A very nice and trustable tour operator which makes your holiday a delight
We went to Tanzania and everything was well arranged by this tour operator. Transport during the holiday was arranged and that was ideal. Fun activities have also been recommended, including two safaris. During these safaris we were able to admire the wild animals from a respectable distance. Thanks to the good organization, this was a holiday we will never forget!

More than just a safari
Just returned from a family vacation in Africa. We spent a week in Mfuwe and South Luangwa National Park and it was amazing. We just had to get ourselves to Lusaka and Dazzle took care of literally everything else. So many animals and such amazing and varied landscapes. Food was healthy and tasty. Sunsets were insane and we enjoyed them while sipping on our choice of beverage at the evening sundowner. Lodges were super comfortable with amazing views. One great aspect of going with Dazzle Africa is the fact they are a non-profit that does a lot of work in the town of Mfuwe and with various animal protection/conservation organizations to help ensure the people of Mfuwe have a better life and that the abundant wildlife stays that way for generations to come. Highly recommend and we will be going back.

Amazing experience with Rono and Carolyn!
I couldn’t expect more from my first ever Safari experience with Morning Star! Rono was an amazing guide, committed to share his knowledge of african wildlife and his country in general! Long drives seemed so short thanks to our good conversations!
Carolyn was such a kind organizer, taking news every single day to ensure my satisfaction!
Many thanks to you and I will highly recommend your agency :)

Amazing Tour Operator
Shoes is by far the best Safari Tour Guide you could hope for. His skills and passion for the wildlife and nature is very evident.
A very well planned trip that went like clock work.
I highly recommend Khalanga Safari Tours!!

Exceptional tour guide with Omar
We went on a 5 day safari of which 4 were spent with tour guide Omar. Omar was amazing at helping us get all the perfect shots of all the animals and was super patient until everyone was happy. He was very patient and helpful, making sure everyone was well fed and organising lunch time.

Perfect!
Thanks for a wonderful safari with an experienced and very relevant guide Manu! You were very correct and accurate. What we imagined, it happened. We will not forget the days in Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Chemka with the wonderful view of Kilimanjaro. You were great, highly recommend! Greetings from Bulgaria! Vincent, you are a very good organizer!

Am amazing experience with an excellent guide at a great price.
We absolutely loved our safari experience with Reteti! They arranged everything from pickup at the airport to the extra night at an airport hotel (since our flight landed in the evening) all the way through to drop-off at the airport when we were done.
Kim was great to work with over email, responded quickly when we had questions, and we ended up meeting him at the end of the trip as well which was fun. Bernard, or driver for the full trip, was excellent at finding where the action was happening, and in our few days got us to see a cheetah hunting/ chasing antelope, multiple elephant families crossing right in front of us, close up lions, etc, etc.
The lodgings themselves far exceeded our expectations - legitimately felt like 4 to 5 star resorts the the states. The food was also fantastic, and was usually buffet style. I've admittedly never been on a cruise but it felt like how people describe them in terms of the level of hospitality and great food. Maybe someday I'll go and I can update this review with a first hand comparison. Overall it was simply fantastic, and we'd love to go again.
Would strongly recommend, 10/10.
The two main things I was concerned about:
- Pesapal (what we paid through) is a payment system you've probably never heard of unless you're from East Africa or have traveled there before. I did some searching and it passed my personal checks, so I went ahead and paid (using my favorite card that I trust completely), and it was obviously all fine, Reteti got the payment, and here we are a week after the trip. Once we got there, sure enough, I saw pesapal signs at most of the resorts, etc. So that was all fine.
- The Nairobi airport has two spots where people seemed to be picking up passengers. The first one was before passport control, and there were only a few there (not sure how they got behind security). Bernard was waiting for us with most of the other guides outside security, right as we excited the airport. I'd expect that to be the same for anyone else, so you go through passport control and customs, then come out and find him. So don't worry if you see people with signs right when you get off the plane and your name isn't there - your driver will most likely be waiting just outside the airport.

Very professional and available when booking, even last minute, passionate guides, perfect adventure
I sent an inquiry late on a Monday night, for a 3-day tour starting on Wednesday. They replied way after office hours and found a way to add me on the tour. Very professional and nice people. Then the tour was amazing. Very great value for a great adventure off the beaten path. I spent two 2 nights at dumela tented camps. Very nice team, passionate guides. I totally recommend them ! You'll be all smiles on for 3 days... And nature there is... Beyond beautiful.

Attentive and kind
We really had a wonderful time. Charles our guide was definitely one of the highlights. He trekked us all over to get medicine for the tribes and gifts and was always so polite and respectful. My only regret was not being able to trek to the gorillas after doing habituation 2 days earlier. My daughter and I were just too tired but we got to enjoy more time with community tours and shopping. We saw everything we wanted to see and loved most of the lodges. My favorites were the more local lodges.

Very insightful and very helpful and knowledgeable.
Our stay in Kenya was one of a kind and truly amazing experience that will stay forever. Everything was amazing from the Tour operator,the driver and accommodation was very nice. We managed to see all the "Big Five " animals by the help of the driver who was well conversant with the destination where we could easily sport them . This was one Safari of a kind never to be forgotten. I would highly recommend Wildbound Safari and Tours for safari and Trips in Kenya.y
