Excellent Tour of Namibia
We had a great experience with Jangwa Tours planning our safari in Namibia. This was our first time in Africa (two women traveling by ourselves), and we were not exactly sure what we were looking for and what to expect :) Johann tailored an amazing itinerary for us, which took us to the most incredible places we didn't even know existed! All the lodges and activities that he had booked for us were top notch!
We also appreciated timely responses and support before and during our trip, answering all questions, small or big.
We are ecstatic we chose Namibia as our "Africa introduction country", and we are very happy that we used Jangwa Tours and Safaris to help us plan this unforgettable adventure.
Highly recommend this tour company!
Thank you Johann, we cannot wait to go back to Africa

Positive experience for 3 days in Kenya
We had planned a longer tour in Tanzania but wanted to spend a big of time in Kenya too. I had trouble finding a company for what we wanted and had time for, but African Beast was able to help. We planned a Nairobi City tour, then a day in Ol Pejeta and a trip to Mt. Kenya. Our flight in was delayed a full day... on almost no notice they adjusted for us.
The day in Ol Pejeta was wonderful, our guide Charles was able to spot things well before our untrained eyes! The Jeep had a small front end issue at the end of the day, but Charles got it repaired overnight, picked up our mountain guide Joseph and we were off for Mt. Kenya. Joseph was excellent! He was patient as I struggled with the altitude, adjusted expectations and helped us have a good adventure, within our limits!
I asked about using taxi's or Bolt and they were able to arrange airport transfers for us that were safe, secure and cost the same. We had David as our driver and he was excellent! Showed us where to get sim cards and waited with us while we found an ATM at the airport. We travel internationally every year, but Nairobi was a bit overwhelming. David also drove us around on our layover day in Nairobi and served as a guide - he took us to the National History Musuem and the Observation tower (name?). While he's not a guide yet - I'm sure he will be one day - very bright and engaging young man! We loved meeting him.
Overall it was great to work with people who wanted to help you have the best trip possible.

The most incredible and immersive wildlife experience!
Our time with Pride Plains was the most incredible week of my life. My parents and I decided to go camping in the Okavango Delta with our family friends. The six of us have always loved wildlife, and this experience with Pride Plains was the ultimate trip for anyone who enjoys nature as much as we do. The entire team was incredible and we spent our days and nights completely immersed in the bush, enjoying the sights and sounds of the animals around us as well as the campsite and delicious food prepared for us by the staff. The absolute highlight was the chance to see a mother cheetah and her four cubs playing with a honey badger as the sun was setting. My dad and I have dreamed of seeing cheetahs in the wild my entire life, and it was my first time crying tears of joy. In addition to seeing 10 cheetahs within 4 days, we saw over 30 species of mammal including lions, leopards, zebras, giraffes, hippos, hyenas, and elephants. The person who made these surreal game drives a possibility was our phenomenal guide, Marks. His incredible intuition, training, and skills to read not just the animals but the people in his group allowed him to craft not just sightings but intimate experiences with the animals. It really felt like he was giving us a window into life in the bush. I don’t think people realize how important it is to have the right guide when on safari; there were jeeps driving around the same reserve as us who weren’t able to see what we saw. Marks, Sam, and the whole Pride Plains family built the most amazing experience for us and it is something I will reflect on for the rest of my life. I cannot put into words how strongly we all would recommend Pride Plains to anyone and everyone who hopes to go on safari in Africa.

A journey that I will never forget, a touching and fulfilling experience.
Our 7-day safari in Tanzania was nothing short of extraordinary, thanks to our phenomenal guide Laban Gervas! His eagle-eyed vision was uncanny—he spotted a leopard camouflaged in the trees before anyone else even noticed a rustle. His dedication to ensuring we saw every animal on our list, from elusive cheetahs to majestic elephants, was relentless yet respectful of the wildlife. His driving skills were impeccable, navigating rugged terrains with ease, always positioning the vehicle for the best views and photography angles. I’ve never met someone with such a natural instinct for animal behavior; he seemed to predict their movements, leading us to unforgettable sightings. His deep knowledge of Tanzania’s wildlife and geography brought every moment to life—each fact he shared felt like a story. His humor and warm, talkative nature made long drives fly by, and his patience with our endless questions was remarkable. He also went out of his way to ensure our comfort, from checking on our needs to sharing insights about local cultures. This guide didn’t just lead a tour; he crafted an adventure we’ll cherish forever.

The best safari tour to have in Tanzania!
My Dream Safari with Gosheni and Laban
I just got back from an incredible 7-day safari in Tanzania with Gosheni Safari Company, and I can’t stop raving about it! As a first-time safari-goer, I was a bit nervous, but Gosheni made everything so easy. Our team planned a perfect trip, hitting Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. The lodges were stunning, and the food was always delicious—especially the bush breakfasts!
Our guide, Laban Gervas, was an absolute gem. His knowledge of the wildlife blew me away—he could spot a cheetah hiding in the grass from miles away! Laban made every game drive exciting, pointing out everything from playful baby elephants to a lion pride lounging under an acacia tree. He even shared stories about Tanzanian culture that made the trip feel so personal. One of my favorite moments was when he surprised us with a sunset view in the Serengeti—it felt like a scene from a movie. Laban’s warmth and humor made me feel right at home.
Gosheni and Laban turned my safari dream into reality. I’m already telling my family to book with them! Highly, highly recommend!

Jocky Tours was fantastic—well-organized, great value, and Freddy was an amazing driver/guide who he
We did the 5-Day Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Navaisha itinerary. In addition to seeing the Big 5, and the Ugly 5, we Witnessed the migration of the wildebeest in Masai Mara, which was extraordinary. We covered a lot of ground in a short amount of time. Next time we would add a few days to spend more time in each park. The food was good overall, and the accommodations were a good value with the bed at the Sarova hotel being the most comfortable of the 3. Freddy, our driver/guide was amazing, and we would request him again!
