Amazing
We booked with Africa Flash McTours with Peter and from the start his communication amazing. I probably sent over 30 emails of questions and changes as the time approached and he answered every one of them and accommodated us with changes.
We did the 2 night camping which was exactly what we though it would be canvas tent under a thatched roof on concrete foundation. It was clean and comfortable. Mosquito nets were provided although we did not have a problem with them this time of the year.
We also did 1 night in lake Nakuru. I wish I had done more research or asked more questions. The lake is growing and many animals have either left or have been moved. The pink flamingos were not really visible and that many. It's not as great as the Masai Mara where our driver would 4 wheel drive over the plains to get to the animals. I would not recommend Nakuru, unless you don't mind sticking to the road and seeing animals from a far.
We asked Peter to for a pick up from the airport. Our hotel was going to charge us double and he provided a more reasonable price.
Peter picked us up the next day at our hotel and took us to our driver and the other passengers for the Safari. Antonio (who was the best) was our driver. He loves the animals and you can tell he loves for us to see them! We saw all but the lepoard of the Big 5 on the first 1/2 day drive
The next day was amazing as well. We drove the the other side of the park to the Mara river and saw Hippo and Crocs. Simple amazing.
overall I would recommend this company to anyone looking for a Safari, if you can handle a little bit rougher stay and are on a budget I would suggests the camping. 2 nights was perfect! Peter made all of our transfers easy and affordable.

It was such an awesome place to stay and the hospitality was fantastic
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. The early morning game drive great - I cannot fault the hosts on anything - I will be back very soon - sitting around a fire at night listening to the wild was so relaxing.

Wonderful time in South Africa with Safpol Safaris
On behalf of our group I would like to say thank you to Barbara, Peter and Basia for organising this wonderful trip. They were always responsive in communication and very understanding of our needs. Safpol has fixed itineraries listed on their website, but worked with us to adjust the itinerary based on our preferences of what we wanted to see and do. They offered good ideas and tips when planning the trip while also honouring the budget we had available. The quality of the accommodation they booked was exceptional. They really put together an amazing itinerary for us and we did not have any complications with anything. The lodges were great, the safaris were amazing, all the transfers were on time, everything was just as the itinerary explained it would be. The tour guides Mariola and Marek were very knowledgeable and really caring about nature and the environment. We really enjoyed our holiday. Thanks to Safpol we had a wonderful time in South Africa. We will recommend Safpol as a very trustworthy company that gives a guarantee of a successful holiday.

Simply the best safari experience! Fun, friendly & knowledgeable guide.
It is difficult to describe in words just how amazing our safari with Carnivores Safari was. Our guide Lucas was absolutely the BEST. He is so knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. He loves being a guide and sharing his country with his clients. Every day we learned new things about the country, people, wildlife, habitat & ecology.
The wildlife and scenery were incredible. Since Lucas is such an experienced guide, he knows the best places for wildlife viewing. His ability to locate the animals and give us a wonderful viewing experience was excellent. His knowledge of the animals and their environment made our experience even richer.
Our safari accommodations and food were fantastic. The hospitality at all of our lodgings was second to none. Our original safari itinerary had us spending part of our time in the northern Serengeti. But, since the animals had already migrated to the central Serengeti, Lucas changed our itinerary and lodging so we could spend more time with the animals in the central Serengeti. Lucas cares that you have the very best safari experience and goes out of his way to make it happen.
I highly recommend this adventure of a lifetime. I hope to go back someday and wouldn’t go with anyone but Carnivores Safari.

Exellent safari
We were very satisfied with the safari. We saw beautiful scenery and more animals than we had dreamed. We saw "big five" several times and totally we saw 22 different mammals. Everything was organized well and the young guide Armand was excellent.

Unbelievable Big 5 Fly in Safari
I went to Tanzania to do a safari where we fly in and out of the Serengeti. It exceeded all our expectations and wouldn't change a thing! Everyone on the sales department was beyond helpful answering our many, many questions. Their prompt and helpful replies 24/7 is really what sold it for us. By choosing this company I ended up with a dependable, quality, top-notch safari with a guide who is friendly and very knowledgeable. Thank you for making it beyond our wildest dreams. Fantastic holiday. Would highly recommend both the destination and the company.

Great price, friendly people, awesome animals
Dennis was great help beforehand and was quick to answer all my questions. The accomodations are basic, but clean. The food is decent, but I would recommend bringing snacks in case you get hungry during the day or do not like an option one night. Most importantly, however, the animals are SO great. The drivers know where to go and get you so close. Overall, I had a great trip and would recommend Baboon Budget Safari to anyone! I traveled alone and felt safe and comfortable the entire time.
