Amazing time, great booking process
I was having a real hard finding a safari last minute and was lucky enough to stumble unto this company.
Communication was great, and I was able to book a 2 night adventure a couple of days before.
I did the night 3 day camping at Pliansberg park. Not only did I get to see the big 5 but on the second day we had some extra time and the guide suggested we go to Sun city, a really nice resort by the park that I had no idea even existed.
I ended up going and getting to see something completely different and thus having two amazing experiences.
Also, I was lucky enough that i was only there with Trystan, from safari with us, and since no one else had boked we had private tours every day.
I would deff recommend, to someone looking for a safari tour in nice comfortable tents

Thanks for a life-changing trip!
We have just completed a fantastic 18-day trip with Thinus that has left us with a lasting impression of the diversity and natural beauty of the Namibian landscape. We spent time in the cities of Windhoek and Swakopmund, saw amazing wildlife and visited the Living Museums of the Bushmen, the Himba and the Damara People. We saw ancient rock engravings and paintings, the Skeleton Coast, the Erongo Mountains, the Namib Desert and the dunes at Soussusvlei. It was a life-changing trip. As a guide Thinus is knowledgeable, experienced, professional and accommodating. We are convinced that he knows every dirt road in the country. His stories about growing up in Damaraland as well as his observations of Namibia’s growth and development helped us have a better understanding of the country. The lodges that he chose for us were comfortable and atmospheric and throughout the trip we felt looked after and safe. During the planning stages of the trip, Thinus and his team were responsive and helpful. We would recommend CrissCross Safaris to anyone interested in experiencing the richness of Namibia. Thanks, Thinus, for an amazing trip!
A superb experience, far exeeding expectations.
We had a fantastic time on the tour. Our tour guide was very knowledgable and provided interesting facts en route and within Mikumi national park.
Transport was very comfortable and well maintained. The accomodation consisted of bungalows inside the national park, services and condition were excellent. Food was of delicious.

Amazing!
I contacted ACZ and got the answers very quickly. The arrangements and communication went very easily. We had an amazing safari tour which topped our expectations! Our driver gave his best and made sure we were driving as close as possible to the animals. The tents we slept in were very comfortable and the food was delicious. I would definitely recommand ACZ!! Thanks a lot:)

Incredible experience with a fabulous well planned tour group
We just completed a trip to Johannsburg, Victoria Falls and Chobe National Park through Compass Odyessy. There wasn't a single missed detail in our ten day journey. Darren and Kate managed every detail of our excursion. The guide services in each country were superb - very prompt, knowledgeable and personable. The lodging locations were top of the line with all modern services. The prep work in the months prior to the journey were incredible. Darren provided us with a ton of information prior to our trip which made us all feel well prepared before departing. I can't put in words how well done the trip was so feel to reach out to me if you need more of a reference.

Awesome custom made holiday in South Africa
The staff and the communications were excellent. Everything was prepared for us to make our journey as smooth as possible like a cell phone with a South African SIM, navigation with all locations on forehand programmed and a book that included everything we needed to know.
Even if we know it would be great it was even better. The locations they picked for us were superb.
The locations varied from lowland safari game, mountainous game drives to the Drakensbergen including great guides and awesome wildlife.
Thank you Nick and Freya, we would love to come back and travel again with Tailor Made Safaris.

You Cannot Do Better than Asili Explorers
Our safari to the Serengeti was amazing. Asili Explorers is a locally managed tour operator, not one of the larger outfits out of Nairobi. Joe Kessey offered personal service as we planned the trip. He found us wonderful accommodations throughout our safari and planned the side trip to Oldupai Gorge. Our guide, Epatha, is simply the best. A 20 year veteran of safaris to the Serengeti, he has an uncanny ability to spot camouflaged animals. He is extremely knowledgeable about all of that we saw and is an excellent teacher.
We could not have done better than our selection of Asili Explorers.

One week individual tour Uganda - a great experience
We did a week-long tour through Queen Elizabeth NP, Bwindi NP (Gorilla tracking) and Lake Mburo NP. The camps and lodges where we stayed were all beautiful and clean, nice and helpful people. We saw all animals we wanted to see, including lions, gorillas, giraffes and the shoebill. Our tour guide Kule was the best guide we could have imagined: friendly, knowledgeable and a safe driver. Organisation by Matoke was excellent: they were very responsive and helpful during the preparation of our tour and understood immediatelly our wishes and expectations. Highly recommendable!

Wonderful 5 days safari in Tanzania, professional and knowledgeable staff, good food&accommodation!
They went above and beyond to make the safari trip unforgettable experience. Allan was really quick to respond, at any hour, giving us important tips and support on how to get to the safari starting point from Kampala in Uganda to Arusha in Tanzania. They made us feel welcomed in both their offices in Nairobi, through Allan and Arusha, through Abraham, who was also helpful in organizing an extra day for us in the safari. As for the safari itself, we had Max as guide and Yusuf as chef. Max was really knowledgeable about all the places we visited, animals, people, local culture. As we were particularly interested in the Maasai way of living, he was more than pleased to give us extra information about them. He knew a lot about the savanna flora and fauna, and we especially liked the peculiar details specific to each animal, never a dull moment on the trip. Max made all efforts to be sure we'll see the Big 5, and we encountered them all, many times. As for Yusuf, he cooked delicious food, in the morning, for lunch and dinner. We especially liked the three course dinner, it was every time different, and the pancakes for breakfast. They both made a good team and they even organized a surprise for one of us who had his birthday during the safari trip, a moment to remember! All that, plus reliable car, good accommodation, as they provided all that was initially promised and even more, made an excellent safari trip. We want to also thank them for being flexible in setting up the schedule for the safari trip, especially for the last day, when we needed to be at the airport at a specific time. Will definitely recommend them!
