Memorable & fascinaitng! (a few problems with our guide)
We saw a ton of wildlife. The guide was knowledgable about what we were seeing and of course his own Maasai culture. He was interesting to spend time with. He taught us songs and Swahili words. He went out of his way to get us close to amazing sightings of animals and teach us about the animals and scenery
We had been intent on using a company that was locally owned so our investment in this experience stayed in the country. Samson’s Safaris coordinators, Stacey and Kimani, were eager to please us and responsive to our feedback or questions during our safari. We could reach them by WhatsApp. The lodging they assisted us in selecting for this private safari was good, as was the food. The tea farm tour they booked for us was thorough, interesting, participatory and the lunch there was delicious. Our stay at Maji Moto Eco Camp was my favorite. Each hotel or camp was between good to outstanding.
I would have chosen a 5 star rating except for our guide being repeatedly late when we'd made the extra effort to awaken very early for his specified pick up time. Waiting for him continued, even after we asked him to be prompt. Also once he didn't have enough money to pay for our park entrance (hundreds of dollars) and asked one of us to cover for him. His Land Cruiser had at least three seatbelts that didn't work, so we couldn’t use the row behind him, which would have been the best place to be to view the sights. It would have been easier get in and out of the side doors from there too, and be able to hear his descriptions of the scenery and animals.

Great service and experience
Monica was very nice and patient. She helped checking a few accommodation options until we confirmed the one I preferred. The driver was so nice and well experienced. I had an excellent 7 day trip. The itinerary was well organized.

Fantastic experience
My mom and I just returned from our South African vacation. If there was one word to describe it, it was simply FANTASTIC. I made so many memories with my mom and that will stay forever with me. The way the entire trip was organized was exemplary. All of the tour guides were extremely kind and courteous. It was wonderful meeting Norman at Johannesburg. The Lukimbi safari was an experience we will never forget. Their ranger and tracker were wonderful and made sure we spotted the leopard on the last morning before we left so my mom could check off her "Big 5" list. Capetown simply blew me away. Having traveled a lot all over the world, I will say that it is now one of my most favorite cities. Brenda was a wonderful guide and made sure we saw everything and more even though the marathon on the weekend presented an unforeseen challenge. I will say that we will back with my entire family for sure as this is a trip that cannot be done only once. Kudos to Patrick and the entire team at Mmilo Tours!

Well organized
Eddy was an exceptional guide. His extensive knowledge, which he generously shared, made the experience truly enriching. He went above and beyond, doing everything possible to ensure we saw all the animals there were to discover.

The tour operator is amazing everything flowed and we had a really great time.
We had an incredible day in Kruger with Eddy, he really is a great guide, he spotted lots of animals and birds we didn’t see and gave so much detailed explanations. Thank you so much for the experience!!

Absolutely exceeded my expectations.
Eddie the Happy Chappy was fantastic- he asked us at the start what the group wanted to see and he worked so hard to get to everything. We saw almost everything and had an enjoyable time doing so. Plenty of time for pictures when we wanted and moved on when we were ready. Amazing time!
Great guide
Eddie was an amazing funny guide with so much knowledge & we saw most animals in the park including everything we nominated as a must see. Highly recommend Mo-Africa and if you’re lucky you’ll get Eddie as a guide

An incredible experience
We had an excellent safari with Suricata. From booking, to debrief, the customer service has been exemplary. They are a very flexible company who listen to guest requests and tailor the tour to meet their needs. Our guide Gordon was constantly making sure his service was meeting our expectations, we were fortunate enough to see all of the big five, and much much more. Tito the chef catered to our dietary needs (vegan) very well and each meal was different and tasty, always plenty of freshly cooked food, whereas majority of other tours were eating packed lunch! We had a briefing on arrival from Daniel, and then a debrief afterwards to take any feedback (all positive from us)! Thank you Suricata, until next time.
