Amazing safari experience!
From the outset, safari infinity were excellent! The trip was tailored to meet our requirements (which we changed several times to explore different options) and all communication was extremely swift. The driver and guide was also fantastic - he was very knowledgable and made sure that we had the best possible experience whilst on safari. The safari itself very much exceeded out expectations - we saw an incredible amount of wildlife in the short time that we were away. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend safari infinity to anyone considering booking such a holiday.

Dishonest and irresponsible boss
My husband and I did a 7 days Machame trek and 2D1N safari tour with this tour. The trek was a good experience because of the wonderful guide Bala and his team. However, we had a hard time with the boss David Michael Bungama/David Bungama Nyabirumo. First, he was dishonest with the accommodation arrangement. ALL the arranged accommodations were different and CHEAPER than what was promised over the email exchange. David attributed the change to bad reputation from the promised hotel, but why the vast difference in price and quality? A day before the safari trip, he said he did not have cash to pay the safari guide as the bank was closed that day (sunday). He said we either have to wait till 10am before we can leave for safari or lend him US$350 first and he repay us when we return. Blame us for wanting to resolve the problem quickly and get started on our trip, we agreed and even made him write an IOU. On the day of return, he refused to meet us and asked the safari operator to book us into a US$10 per room (with shared bathroom) backpacker in Moshi! We paid US$700 per person for a 2D1N safari and the lodge in the safari was not fantastic as well!!! Where did all our money go to? We were furious and he promised to meet us the next day which was our day of departure. Not too surprisingly, he only sent the driver to meet us WITHOUT THE US$350 that he owed us! He promised to meet us in the airport after a blasting over the phone with us, but he refused to pick up calls when we were in the airport. Up to the last minute before we need to board, he called back to say he'll fund transfer us. It is our misfortune to have trusted David and engage him. Although he did offer a slightly cheaper price than other operator, he probably made a neat profit through numerous hidden costs or downright cheating. I think dishonest business dealer is the last thing a tourist will want to encounter. Please be careful of this guy and stay clear. He is out to make money but not in the right way.

Fabulous.It was an amazing experience.
We really enjoyed our trip in Tanzania with Ndutu Adventures. Saw a lot of wild animals, with a special thanks to Andrew our guide who did a terrific job in spotting the animals and always being at the right place to make great pictures and enjoy the action!. The places, food and scenery are wonderfull. We appreciated the quick responses from the reservations Really can recommend this tour company to anyone planning to travel to East Africa!

Summit to Uhuru
I have now had two expeditions with Focus in Africa, group based in Ausha and lead by Nelson Mbise.
The team of guides, deputy guides, chef, porters and other support staff made our climb to Uhuru peak very special.
In August our group was lead into mountains by Babalu (infectious smile) and Charles (humming Masai songs on summit night). I cannot thank them enough.

Amazing game drives, great guide - 19 days of wonderful
Planning our trip with Alex Friere by email and skype was part of the fun. He created a 19-day African holiday that fit us perfectly - our interests, time and $$. We were taken care of from pick up at the airport in Johannesburg to Kasane and Chobe National Park in Botswana, through to Victoria Falls and then to Durban and up to Kwalazulu Natal reserves, and finally to our drop off at the airport for our flight home. We enjoyed wonderful game drives (by boat and truck) from Garden Lodge in Kasane and staff there were great-wonderful hospitality. Accommodations in the Drakensburg, Durban, St. Lucia, Kosi Bay and Tembe were all different and all lovely - always good food, with kind and hospitable staff. We hiked in the Drakensburg. We snorkelled - saw wonderful colourful fish. Canoed African style. Enjoyed lots of bird watching and always saw game. We did see the big five - leopard sighting was lucky! And so much more - the wildlife watching was truly amazing. Alex was a thoughtful and knowledgeable guide and very supportive of us as amateur photographers. His travel plans and arrangements were flawless and gave us options along the way, with time to explore, chill, even shop. We did not know that we could have a private, made-for-us safari and we are so glad to have found Unique-Safari.

Fantastic!
My husband had been on safari before with Wildlife Safaris and was so impressed that he would only travel with them again. The trip to Kruger Park far exceeded my expectations, it was just amazing. All the travel arrangements were made for our Private safari with Christine who arranged our itinerary. Nothing was two much for Christine she answered all our questions and put together the perfect holiday. Everything was well planned and arranged. We even had to work our holiday around Hoppy the guide my husband had had previously! No Hoppy, no holiday!
Hoppy is wonderful,so knowledgable about all wildlife and could spot an animal anywhere. He's also funny two lots of stories to tell. We saw the Big 5 before breakfast on the first morning we arrived.
A big, big thank you Hoppy for an amazing time. A holiday I'll never forget....

The best!
We've had an amazing experience with Visit Arusha! We've had classic jeep safari, walking safari with bushmen and holidays on Zanzibar. Their staff was very helpful and quick to respond. Guides were very knowledgeable and friendly! We've had really great time with our guide and in the end of our safari we received a very nice surprise!! Highly recommended!

Great safari, very knowledgeable guide/driver and the kids loved it
Organizing the trip was very easy and answers came back very quickly. A small hiccup was tented camp vs. lodge but in the end I could accept that. The driver/guide was more than excellent, safe driver and knew the answer to almost every question we threw at him, Stephen was just great.
We had 3 kids 18, 11 and 7 which limited the number of days we could thought we could spend so we decided for the 4 day safari which actually could have been 5 days with an extra day in Masai Mara.
I would for sure recommend KETS to any of my friends but make sure all lodging alternatives are clearly sorted out to avoid surprises.

Amazing Memories Created With Professionals Who Love Kruger Park
If you are going to Kruger Park you will be in good hands with Kruger Flexi Tours. From my first inquiry to Dave about his services and prices to the last heartfelt hug good-bye our experience was superb. Dave took care of every request efficiently with little fanfare and it was so nice to have just one person to deal with all our needs for our weeks stay in the area. Ted picked us up at the airport, waited patiently while we grocery shopped and helped us into our condo with every last bag. He is a local native, loves the flora, fauna and animals of the area, is excited to share the wealth of information he has stored in his head you cant help but love him. He was the perfect and guide and companion to take us on the Panorama Tour, to the Lowveld Botanical Garden and the Festival Dinner at Shangana Village. British Dave was our guide in the park and we couldn't have had better, by 11:00 am each day he showed us the big 5. He also loves what he does and we value all the information he shared with us concerning the many animals we saw. It is a trip of a lifetime and very important to choose the professionals who will give you the best experience possible. I believe that company is Kruger Flexi Tours
