Staffs like family
Staffs, driver, chef, all were great people.
I was lucky enough to see all the animals I wanted including rhinos despite low season.

Magical 5-Day Masai Mara Safari – Perfectly organised by Think travel
We had an unforgettable 4-night, 5-day safari in Kenya’s Masai Mara, flawlessly arranged by ThinkTravel. A special thanks to Muthoni, who personally welcomed us at arrival and was there again to see us off at the end – a truly thoughtful gesture.
Our guide, Jimmy, was excellent – professional, knowledgeable, and always enthusiastic. With his help, we saw the Big Four (lions, leopards, elephants, and buffalo), a majestic cheetah, and many other incredible animals. Though we missed the rhino, the sightings and overall experience were beyond expectations.
The balloon safari at sunrise was a once-in-a-lifetime moment, followed by a scenic champagne breakfast in the bush. The sundowner experience in the middle of the Mara was equally memorable – peaceful, picturesque, and beautifully arranged.
Our lodges were comfortable, the meals were delicious, and the hospitality was excellent. On our way back, Muthoni kindly took us to a local African cultural souvenir shop, where we enjoyed browsing and picked up a few lovely items.
We highly recommend ThinkTravel, Muthoni, and Jimmy for anyone planning a well-organized, personalized, and truly enriching Masai Mara safari.

Very enjoyable safari tour - questionable accommodation
We had a very nice safari in a big 4x4 Land Cruiser and saw lots of the animals. Our guide Gerald (aka Geeman) was very good at spotting and pointing out animals and getting us all over the place and up close to several of the animals.
The only downside was the accommodation, which was an unpleasant surprise. Very basic tents which I wasn’t expecting, and the food was quite wearisome. Thankfully there was alcohol.
The trip to the Masai Tribe was fun, but expect to buy several take aways.

10 Days of adventure
A 10 day safari proved to be a once in a lifetime experience. This was our first time in Africa, and we were deeply impressed by the exceptional service, warm hospitality, and attention to details provided throughout the journey. From the beginning Benson made the booking process smooth and reassuring, answering all our questions and ensuring that everything was perfectly arranged. Upon arrival, we were welcomed by our guide Eric, who become not just guide but a true friend over the course of the safari.
Eric deep knowledge of wildlife, nature, and culture made every day fascinating and educational. He always made sure we were safe and enjoying every moment which turned each game drive into exciting adventure.
The service at each lodge and camp Benson booked for us was warm and welcoming giving us true African hospitality.
The entire journey was smooth, safe, and filled with memorable moments. This was more than just a holiday-it was a meaningful adventure that we will cherish forever. We are deeply grateful to Eric, Benson,and the entire Banok Safaris Team.

Reliable & tailored organisation, amazing trip
This was one of the best trips of my life. Unveil Uganda were so easy to deal with, fast communication and very accommodating to whatever itinerary you want (Ronnie went out of his way to find me a giant forest hog, for instance)! The accommodation they selected was all great, very clean, surrounded by nature and surprisingly good food. As a guide and basically private chauffeur Ronnie was perfect, very timely, reliable and everything felt very smooth and safe. Would highly recommend a tour with Unveil, amazing wildlife, great people and excellent value for money.

Thomas was a great driver! Very smooth
Great service offered by Thomas! He picked us up at 6am, drove us to Pilanesberg for a safari, and drove us home again. Very good spirited and provided good facts along the way!

Accommodating, flexible and professional
Every aspect of our trip with Deluxe Vacations was absolutely perfect! There are so many tour groups to choose from it can be overwhelming, but I felt good about Deluxe from the start. I had been to Uganda before so I knew a bit of what I wanted to experience going with husband and reached out to multiple companies: some responded with their standard program, others said there was flexibility but would charge thousands extra, while others never followed-up after I asked question. Deluxe, however, was not only incredibly communicative from the start, but incredibly flexible and reasonable. Can we do chimpanzee trekking and gorilla trekking? Sure! Can we find the shoebill stork? Of course? And zebras, is there a way we can see zebras? Absolutely! Every request, every ask, both before and during the trip, was met with kindness and hospitality. Godwin was so easy and pleasurable to work with, and paid such close attention to detail that he even recognized my husband was born in Germany and paired us with an amazing guide - Emanuel - who was studying German, which just made our time together that much more enjoyable. The little details, the kindness, the attention to our needs and wants, made this trip absolutely amazing (be careful if you mention you like Stoney’s - Eman will make sure you always have one in hand!) Where other groups were offering trips in large groups that were twice as much and half as nice, our tour with Deluxe was a private tour, thousands less, and the accommodations were beautiful! I could not recommend Deluxe enough - don’t be afraid to let them know what you’re looking for - they will go out of their way to accommodate you (even grabbing you a Rolex when you’re craving one!) and ensure you have the most memorable trip. I can’t wait till my next trip to Uganda to explore the Northern parts with Deluxe!

Fantastic and Memorable Trip
Our recent holiday to South Africa with Tailormade Africa was absolutely spectacular. From the moment we arrived, we were immersed in the vibrant culture, stunning landscapes, and the warm hospitality of the South African people.
Tailormade Africa ensured we had a comprehensive experience. We explored iconic landmarks, savoured local cuisine, visited vineyards, and even went on a safari, which was a highlight of the trip. The accommodations were excellent and conveniently located, making it easy to relax and enjoy every moment.
The professionalism and attention to detail by Tailormade Africa made this trip seamless and enjoyable. Their passion and dedication to providing a memorable experience was evident in every aspect of our journey. We returned home with incredible memories and a deep appreciation for South Africa.
We highly recommend Tailormade Africa to anyone looking to explore new destinations in Africa. We can't praise the team enough – they are wonderful. This trip was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
