Unique Experience in Tanzania & Zanzibar
For our 60th birthdays (My wife and me) we spent 5 days in Tanzania and 3 days in Zanzibar. We have been in touch with Joseph (General Manager of Tomoduchi) from home before we arrived and he planned our stay and route in order to acheive the most of our days in Tanzania/ Zanzibar. Joseph received us at the airport when we arrived, took care of all our needs (Hotels, local Sim cards, Transportation, Information and all the time looked on our well-being).
The Safari route Joseph planned was done based on Joseph vast experience and saved us a lot of unnecessary drives in the long field roads of the Safari (Serengeti and ngorongoro).
Our guide/Driver for the safari trip was Chad, whom we found out as knowledgeable ( In Geography, Zoology, History and mechanics) , pleasant , and sensitive to our needs and requests, because of him our trip became a unique experience.
We thank Joseph and Chad who made our vacation to such a pleasant and unforgettable one. It also warmed our harts to find out that Both of them have such warm feeling towards the holy land. and we wish them both all the best and hope that beautiful Tanzania will flourish.

The perfectly executed last minute African adventure
I contacted Ute about 14 days before my husband and I wanted to travel to Africa. We had a last minute window of being able to take time off of work. Ute was the perfect person to reach out to! She was very quick in her responses, was very thorough, and gave us the time (even though the trip was approaching quickly) for my husband and I to review the options.
She is very knowledgeable of the different areas to travel, travel times and the best way to get the most out of every day, and met exactly what we wanted.
All we gave Ute was a budget, key places we wanted to visit, and the dates available. She quickly came back with a full itinerary, & was open to conversations on potential adjustments.
We went to Victoria Falls, Chobe, Okavango Delta (Moremi specifically) ,and Phinda private reserve in S. Africa. We had never heard of Phinda, and to be honest, was a bit nervous about the sighting potential & quality (as you always hear about Kruger, etc). I was 100% incorrect in having any nerves. Phinda was actually our favorite part of the trip- from the lodge, to the guides, to the sightings, it was absolutely amazing!
It was Ute's deep knowledge of the different parks and areas of each country that made our 2 week experience absolutely perfect! If we are lucky enough to come back to Africa again, we will book through no one other than Ute.

4-Night Camping Safari
The camping safari was excellent and was able to see all the animals up close. Also being able to camp in the national parks was great! Our driver Melik was superb at spotting animals

I had a great time with Wild Planet Safari!
I had a great experience with Wild Planet Safari! Adrian was our guide during 4 days in a tour to the Kruger Park. He is very friendly, drives and cooks very well and knows everything about the animals. We had great time and strongly recommend Adrian and the Wild Planet Safari!

Fantastic tour by a really passionate team!
My friend and I went on a fantastic 6 day tour to Queen Elizabeth park on safari, trekking with the chimps and gorillas, and then to Lake Bunyonyi Richard was great with communication and planning, and our guide/driver Deo was a legend! Safari was great fun, but it was the trekking with the chimps and gorillas that was the most impressive part. Lake Bunyonyi was then an excellent relax at the end of the tour. Accommodation was a great mix, with more budget places right near the safari at the beginning and then fancier places at the end - but I believe they are happy to tailor to people's preferences.
Most impressive though was the real passion these guys have for conservation, education and Uganda as a whole! Hearing them talk about the protection of animals in the parks or describing the work the company does supporting local schools - it was very moving. Keep up the great work you guys, and I would 100% recommend them!

Honeymoon for the ages...!!
Rose and the team helped plan our incredible honeymoon which started at the Banyan Tree in the Seychelles, continued on to Singita Boulders (maybe the best place on Earth...), on to Madikwe Hills and then finishing at the Ellerman House (maybe the second best place on Earth...) in Cape Town. This my was first time planning such a trip and Rose was incredibly helpful. Not only did she custom plan the entire itinerary which was challenging given how many stops we made (11 flights in total!) but she delivered a custom welcome package a couple of months before the trip with flight numbers, packing lists, local customers, travel guides, and other special considerations. Where necessary, she arranged for someone to meet us inside the airport as well as drivers at each of the stops to shepherd us to our next destination. Moreover, given this was our first time to Africa and the number of stop we were making I had a lot of questions once on the ground there. Rose was quickly responsive with all of my emails which gave my wife and I are great sense of reassurance and relief that everything was being handled, and it was. Would definitely recommend Rose and the team to anyone booking a trip to Africa and who wants to ensure that their trip is custom-tailored to their desires, rather than a “canned”, mass-marketed experience. Wish we were still there...
