We had a fantastic trip. Our guide, Hussian, found all the animals - we even saw a rhino! - he has an eagle eye. His knowledge about the animals was outstanding and we asked a lot of questions!! And he took great care of us, going out of his way to be helpful. The tour company was responsive to all our needs making
Planning the trip easy.

Dynamic company who went out of their way to accommodate us
We made a lot of changes to our itinerary before our journey: the owner of this company was incredibly patient with us and met our changing needs admirably.
On the ground we could not have asked for more. We had three different guides: they were all very personable and knowledgeable. Their ability to spot distant animals whilst driving astounded (it’d take us ages to see them). There was a great mix of accommodation types.
We were very happy with our choice of company. There’re many to choose from, but you can be assured Wild Cruises is a winner.

Kilimanjaro Trekking
This trek was one of the toughest challenges I have ever undertaken, and having the support of Zara Tanzania made all the difference. I highly recommend working with Zara Tanzania Adventures on Kilimanjaro because I witnessed the expertise and resources they have built over the years. The crew, led by our tour guide Lema, was knowledgeable, attentive, and brilliant. We learned so much about Kilimanjaro and shared many special moments on the trail. The food was incredibly nice and plentiful. We all made it to the summit and owe it all to the team from Zara

Tshepo is organised, fluent and informative in his capacity as guide and driver
A well put-together package. Covered what was similarly felt as essential. Meal at a mainstream dining place was good too.

A dream come true
The organisation of the safari was perfect. The communication with Serenti Smile staff was easy and efficient. The safari schedule was respected. Our guide Aminiel was very kind and professional. Thanks to him, we could see all the animals that we wanted to see . We saw more animals than we expected.
Serengeti Smile was good value for money. We highly recommend them.

Excellent, informative and our guide was the best.
Serengeti Smile is moderately priced and answered every question. Our guide, Hussein was very knowledgeable, friendly, worked very hard to have us see the big five animals as well as many other animals, birds and plants. My highlight in accommodations was glamping in the Serengeti. I would highly recommend this company and in particular our guide Hussein.

Masterful
A terrific tour. Hussein worked tirelessly and successfully to show us all the big 5 and more.
The only thing I would do differently next time is to try to work more with the company to accommodate my difficult food restrictions for lunch.

FIVE STAR - THE BEST GUIDE IN RWANDA!
I can’t recommend Emile highly enough. He truly went the extra mile and made my journey through Rwanda unforgettable. From the awe-inspiring mountain gorillas in Volcanoes National Park to chimpanzee trekking in Nyungwe and the breathtaking wildlife of Akagera National Park, he planned and guided every step with care and expertise.
A former guide with six years of experience in Akagera, he answered every question I had with insight and deep knowledge of Rwanda’s wildlife and culture. He was always on time, efficient, conscientious, and professional—yet also warm and sincere, making every drive and hike a pleasure.
Thanks to his experience and thoughtful planning, I was able to witness the incredible gorilla naming ceremony and experience Rwanda in a way I never could have on my own. If you are visiting Rwanda and want a guide who is not only highly skilled but truly dedicated to making your trip extraordinary, Emile is the one to book.

Golden Africa turned our wonderfully chaotic family into the most relaxed holidaymakers in Botswana.
We had the most incredible time in Botswana with Rob and Moah. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organised, and we were lucky enough to see all the wildlife we had dreamed of (and more!).
Rob truly was the best guide we could have asked for. His knowledge, patience, and sharp eye for spotting animals made every drive fascinating and unforgettable. I learned so much that I now feel fully qualified to launch my own BBC wildlife documentary series (watch out, David Attenborough!).
It was an unforgettable experience and I couldn’t recommend Rob more highly.
