Great African Safari Experience
The staff is great. Always looking to make the extra mile to make the staying awesome.
We made a five day safari. Sammy, the guide, is super kind and has a lot of knowlege about the flora and fauna of Tanzania. The food was great and fulfilling.
The Massai experience is highly recommendable. It was very far from the touristic kind. We had the real stuff.
I would deffinitly choose you again guys!
Please stay awesome!

Rude and dismissive guide
It pains me to write a bad review! I took the trip from Dar Es Salaam all the way down to Cape Town, with two different sets of staff: tour guide, cook and bus driver. I can't say enough good things about the second part of the trip, from Victoria Falls to Cape Town. The campsites were beautiful, the food was AMAZING and our guide was extremely knowledgeable. However, the first few weeks of the trip were quite painful, due to our terrible tour guide. He was rude, talked back to customers, wouldn't tell us how long the bus trip would be, and openly mocked customers. My bag got stolen at one campsite (no one's fault at all!) and I couldn't find our tour guide to tell him, he was at the pub having a drink. When I did tell him, he simply kept saying that it 'was not possible' and refused to help in any way at all. I had to contact the reception team at ATC to get a letter (they were quick, sympathetic and professional.)
Overall, my experience was good regarding the campsites, food, locations, and administrative staff. However our guide was so terrible for the first three weeks that it is impossible for me to give ATC more than two stars. :( If you are considering booking a tour, ensure that your tour guide is NOT Frances. I'm sure the rest of the guides are great, and this is just one bad apple. Ensure that Frances is not your guide before leaving.

They make it happen!
We had a safari holiday which was beyond amazing thanks to the help of Megan Warrington.
She carefully curated the itinerary taking into account the dates that we had to travel and the arrangement of my husband joining us later.
Her recommendation were properly chosen in terms of the budget, comfort and services.
She saw to it that we went to Kapama Private Reserve - home to the Big 5.
Megan responded to all our queries including the recommended wear and gear!
She followed up very closely to ensure that all are in place. She even sought feedback after.
We will definitely use this service again!

Great operator - made everything very hassle free!
Adili and Ubuntu Voyages couldn't have made the trip to Nyiragongo any easier. The whole booking and invoicing process was straightforward and honest, and the price was very reasonable. When we arrived all vehicles and drivers were on time, the accommodation was as expected, and it was really a stress-free way to do the trip. I had a couple of friends in from out of town who did the gorillas as well, and they had no issues either. Definitely recommend!

The tour was awesome!!
The service was excellent.
Federica (the guide) was very friendly and she explained with complete presision the animals behavior. We saw many animals (including the Big Five)
In my opinion, Shikwaru Adventures its %100 recommendable. For the next Zafari, i will contract it again!

Totally competent
This was the fifth safari that African Welcome have sorted out for us. They know what we want before we ask and we just relax knowing it’s all in hand. We have total faith and we’ve never been let down. Looking forward to the next one

Amazing
everything was excellent from the hotel pick-up to the end of the safari. The people very kind. In the afternoon and morning safari we could see many animals despite the rain and the storm.

No care in the world
I have had an amazing time traveling with Ruan and Federica. They take care of everything and make sure that you have the best trip and experiences. Ruan drove us safely to our destinations and Federica took care of all the administration and arrangements. Both cook dinners that still make my mouth water when I think about it.

Excellent tour operator, great guides
Mmilo Tours organized a Safari tour to Pilanesberg Park where we stayed at Bakubung Bush Lodge. Our private guide picked us up at our hotel in Pretoria. In the car on the way to Pilanesberg we learned a lot about South Africa, the Safari park and the animals, so when we arrived to the park we were well prepared. The hours we spent together in the car we learned much more. The guide was enthusiastic and very well prepared.
Bakubung Bush Lodge is an excellent place to stay. We wish we would have more time, we could easily have spent one more night.
The last day our guide drove us to our hotel in Johannesburg.
Everyting arranged by Mmilo Tours was well organized, accommodation suggested by them was excellent choices.
Highly recommended
