Review about Tanzania by Donal C Wells
In addition to a guided game drive in Ngorongoro Crater, we did self-catered safaris in our own Land Cruiser to Ruaha and Serengeti. (My daughter and son-in-law were living in Iringa.) We did two guided walking safaris and a night game drive. The beauty and ease of finding the mammals, birds, etc. were exceptional. I recommend The Hilltop Lodge at Ruaha and the Ikoma Tented Camp at the west border of the Serengeti NP (but don't expect great food at the latter). We also enjoyed staying in the rustic bandas in Ruaha NP. We were almost the only visitors in the whole park. Next time we'll have to visit Lake Manyara and Tarangire at the least, as well as returning to Ngorongoro Crater.

Review about South Africa by awatkinson69
The country is just so diverse - from the dramatic coastline of the Cape through the arid interior of the Karoo up to the humid tropical plains of the Kruger. And as the scenery changes, so does its flora and fauna. Without wishing to sound overly romantic - it is magical.

Sun Safaris did an excellent job of coordinating all our plans in Africa.
Sun Safaris booked all the accommodations and transportation for a 3 week visit in Tanzania, Namibia, Botswana, Kenya and South Africa for us. It was a very involved and extensive trip, but everything fell into place perfectly, thanks to their coordination and execution of what we requested. There were no glitches and Brett took a very personal interest in making sure that we were very satisfied with Sun Safaris. Thank you for a very awesome vacation.

When can I come back?
I had my first Safari experience in June of 2014. Friends had told me how great an experience Safari is but I had no idea what to expect. Needless to say I was blown away. The wildlife is amazing, the lodges and camps fantastic, and the people are shine bright.
After my first trip I was bit by the African bug and had to get back. I worked with Safari Infinity to plan a second custom Safari.
We picked the low season so we did not have to deal with crowds. We got to off road in Ndutu, follow a cheetah for the better part of an hour, and drink scotch while over looking the Serengeti.
The team at Safari Infinity is amazing. They work with your budget, your plans, and what you want. They do not try and force you into a prepackaged deal.
After two Safaris I'm ready to come back. I'm currently training and getting in shape to climb Kilimanjaro! Can't wait to work with everyone at Safari Infinity and be back in Africa!

Northern circuit safari
Great fun. Everything was according to the itinerary with no hiccups, which was one of my fears. Looking forward to coming back nxt year to check out the Southern national parks.

Good guide but Unfortunately the accommodation and food were really bad
We had a good guide and the team tried hard. The masa mara was stunning and even though we only saw 1lionness and a cheetah it was a magical moment. However the food was particularly bad (and we are based in Ethiopia so we are not spoilt) and the accomodation was old and tired.

My Gorilla trekking to Bwindi East African Jungle Safaris
Our guide Tom was excellent,knowledgeable,attentive and friendly.Nothing was too much having years of experience and long standing relationship with locals throughout the tour.The gorilla trek was excellent a perfect day,physically challenging but well within the capableof an averagely fit person.The forest is named impenetrable for a reason and the growth is very dense and the gorillas dont make life easy but we managed to get very close.Excellent i would highly recommend the trek and the company.Tom was also excellent and i would travel with him again.Keep it up East African Jungle Safaris Ltd.

Good Safari but
Overall great Safari experience and the driver was extremely helpful and knew his stuff. However I was disappointed with the accommodation that was advised for this package. Way below what we were assured.

My Tanzanian adventure
I was on a 5 day safari with Karibu Tanzania, which I can highly recomend. They are highly proffosional and with a nice staff, whom we enjoyed a bottle of vine with one of the safaridays at the basecamp.
We camped at the safari park as well which was a great experience.
All in all, great company and great people!
