The trip with People Tours and Safari was fantastic and everything worked out seamlessly
It was my first time in Namibia and when I was organizing for my trip, I picked one of the tour operators that had the best ratings and I was not disappointed. They set up such an amazing trip and took care of all the details! They were always available to answer questions I had at any time. The trip in this beautiful country was fantastic and everything worked out seamlessly. The lodges and the activities were excellent, and the scenery in Etosha National Park, Swakopmund, Damaraland, the Namib desert and all the others places we visited were a real treat to the eyes! My tour guide, Timoteus, is very friendly, helpful and so kind and I learned a lot about the places we visited and the rich local culture. It was a real pleasure to be taken around by him. Overall, it was a great vacation and definitely one of my favorites. I am happy I did it and I'd recommend the tour by People Tours and Safari to anyone.

Great experience
I can only say positive things about the safari and the agency we booked with from Spain in February, Serengeti African Tours. I contacted Linah and Lucas through their email. They sent me the program and it was fully respected during the trip. I won't go into details about what you see on the safari, which is incredible and wonderful, but I will say that both our guide Ezequiel and our cook David did their best to make the safari as great as it ended up being. I don't know if I will return to Tanzania because the world is very big and there are many things to see, but if I do, I will definitely do it again with Serengeti African Tours.

Chill and caring
If you are planning to hike Kilimanjaro, I will recommend to trust local company Zanzi Trekking and their professional crew. We had an incredible week hiking Lemosho route all the way up to the summit. Me and 2 friends booked a private tour and had 10-person crew with friendly porters, chef, waiter and couple of guides. Maru and George (the guides) were amazingly talented leaders and i could trust the whole trip that we got perfect advice for each day. Even thought there were challencing moments on hike, our guides knew exactly how to push us forward and still kept our minds happy. Thanks to the chef for making delicious foods, especially soups kept us warm. Also food was always on time and that’s something you dont want to stress about at the mountain. So if you are looking for chill and talented crew and want to reach the summit with cheap price, support and go and take a hike with these guys. Thank you for sharing this hard but worthy experience with me, I will see you guys some day again. Jambo jambo!

Great tour operator that ensured a flawless safari
We selected Kilipath for a 3-day (privat) safari for two persons. Filex coordinated the tour and acted as first point of contact. He offered various options for us to choose from. The option we eventually selected was perfect for us, a 3-day safari accross Serengeti and Ngorongoro (midrange).
Once we arrived at the Serengeti Seronera airport, our guide Jusuf was waiting for us. We were lucky with Jusuf. Besides being a knowledgable and experienced guide he was also a great person to travel with. Since we were only a team of two having a great guide was big plus. We enjoyed the tour a lot.
What you should know is that tour operators and tour guides typically work independently. Tour guides are selected and hired by tour operators. While the operator is essential for the commercial and logistic aspects as well as the selection of the right guide, the tour guide is essential for the experience of the tour. In our case, were lucky with both.

Well organized with great and passionate employees
Solomon is hands down the best tour guide you can find in Kenya. From the moment we met, it was clear how passionate he is about his job. He goes above and beyond to make sure you have an unforgettable experience. He knows all the best spots to see wildlife, and his enthusiasm is contagious. If you want a tour that exceeds all your expectations, book with Solomon. Trust me, you won’t find a better guide anywhere.

Compass Odyssey was so wonderful to work with throughout all the phases of our safari planning.
From the first email communication, Compass Odyssey made planning our dream trip to South Africa seamless and stress-free. Darren took our list of "must-do's" and created an itinerary that not only met, but exceeded our expectations. During the planning phases of our trip, we received updates, sample itineraries including detailed information about local activities we could participate in, and helpful details that allowed us to tailor our trip to make our dreams come true. We were even provided updates on the weather! Every "t" was crossed and every "i" was dotted by Darren and his team so we knew exactly what to expect from the moment we arrived. We had the most amazingly knowledgeable guides at every destination along the way. They all made us feel like family and took such good care of us throughout our journey. They worked so hard to make our experience that much more meaningful. The accommodations selected for us in each of the four countries we visited were very well appointed, spotlessly clean, and each unique in their own way. The safari lodges in Kruger (Senalala Safari Lodge) and Botswana (Chobe River Lodge) were especially lovely. I could not be happier or more satisfied with the work Darren and the entire Compass Odyssey crew put in to make our trip a massive success. We will cherish the memories, experiences, and photos we collected throughout our trip. I would, without reservation, recommend using Compass Odyssey to help make your safari dreams come true. From beginning to end, our experience with Compass Odyssey was simply amazing.

Well-equipped 4x4, very supportive and trustworthy rental company!
We rented a car for our 2-weeks road trip and couldn’t have wished for a better rental experience. Ant is very supportive in everything you might need. The car is fully equipped with high quality camping gear - we missed nothing. Huge recommendation and would definitely rent there again!

Knowledgeable and Fun
We had such a great experience with Telly! We traveled with our 2 teens and did the day hike to Mandara Hut and Maundi Crater. Emmanuel our guide was so well educated and passionate about the mountain. He was able to teach us about the animals and the way of life of the people who live there. Our driver was awesome as well! He kept us laughing the entire way. 100% would recommend for cost, communication, and reliability alone, but it was the warm people that really took the show.
