A great way to spend a day in Africa
We have been fortunate to visit many Safari Park in both South Africa and across South Africa, and our day visit to Addo Elephant Park did not disappoint. Being short of time we could only spare the day for our visit, but it proved to be a great day safari location, easily accessible from Port Elizabeth and Port Alfred. We started our visit early in the morning at the Southern entrance to the park which meant there was far fewer cars on the road than the areas up around the main cam. We were spoilt with magnificient sightings of both Elephant and Buffalo herds. We didn't see any of the big cats, but others in the area did our timing was just a little off.
The bush in many places in Addo is very thick which can make spotting game a bit challenging at times. As we only visited for the day I can not comment on accommodation, however we did visit the restaurant at the main camp and were very impressed by the meal. Everything from arriving, purchasing our day pass and moving around the park worked efficiently and the park appears to be very well run. We will certainly visit again if we are lucky enough to find ourselves in this part of the world again.

It was such a beautiful experience!
People in Tanzania were very friendly and helpful. The nature and its Wildlife is much more beautiful as we expected. Especially the Camp in the serengeti, where we followed the Migration was undescribable!!! Food and camps were excellent during the whole Journey!

Review about Kenya by missbaxter
We stayed in Amboseli National Park 2 nights and Nairobi National Park 2 nights before heading into Tanzania. I loved both places in Kenya, and enjoyed sights around Nairobi too.
Review about Kenya by nyotsz
For over 23 years I have managed to travel to various destinations in Kenya and noted that Kenya is one of the few places on earth that you can experience extreme diversity in culture and physical features ranging from the ocean, various lakes, desert tropical rainforest and the only snow capped mountain along the equator. All these is capped with a very friendly people.
Review about South Africa by Travelling Rats
South Africa as a destination has just about everything a traveller can wish for. The safari parks are each unique and offer a safe and intimate African experience. Beyond safari's there are so many other highlights across this magnificent country making it a hard to beat destination.
Very well organized and professional company
All questions and concerns were address. My calls were returned in timely matters. The staff even checked in with me during my trip to ensure all was well.

An unforgettable experience with exceptional service
I did not realize that travelling could be so hustle free if one has the right person doing the planning. And choosing to use Denhum Holidays was the best decision ever. My family and I really enjoyed the Mara Safari. The scenery was just breathtaking and the experience will be one that we will talk about for years to come. Thank you Denhum Holidays.....

Bravo for Gondwana Tours & Safaris
If you are looking to create your own tour to various safari locations in Botswana, I strongly recommend Gondwana Tours & Safaris. Mark Hathaway is extremely knowledgeable, responsive and helpful in assisting in sorting out the options, costs, and pros and cons of different camps. We just came back from Africa, including a 9-day tour arranged by Gondwana. All the arrangements were perfect, including car pick-ups, bush plane reservations, and reservations at the various lodges. Mark is quick in responding to queries, of whatever type and no matter how seemingly silly. This group gets an A++.

Unbelievable Lion experiences from mating to post-kill nap time.
Our safari guide IDI, was not only expert on everything we encountered in the animal and plant kingdoms, he was extremely helpful with all of our needs. And he was widely known and respected by other tour guides that we encountered. When our luggage was significantly delayed on arrival, he was totally on top of making sure we could purchase our essential needs, and he was constantly contacting the airline to make them find and deliver our bags. This safari experience was exceptional in the way we encountered all the animals we could dream of, in the outstanding accommodations, and in the exposure to local people and cultures.
