Amazing
Victor was an absolutely outstanding guide on our private tour of Pretoria. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and brought the city’s rich history to life at every stop—from the impressive Union Buildings and Mandela statue to the Kruger House, Church Square, and the striking Voortrekker Afrikaans Monument. His passion for South Africa’s heritage and his warm, personable approach made the day unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide—highly recommend!
Great itinerary,
We have just returned from our trip to Botswana (Chobe) and Zimbabwe; Victoria Falls, Hwange, Matusadona - Lake Kariba & Mana Pools.
Sian put together the perfect itinerary for us!
Our whole trip was amazing; we cannot think of one single thing which could have been better. All the lodges where great, amazing food in all of them and outstanding service and attention to detail. Our safari guides where amazing, on most of our outings we were the only ones on the car; Nantwich, The Hide, Changa and almost all at Muchenje as well, at John's camp there was one other couple! We liked all the lodges, but Changa our favorite. Maybe because it is on a lake and it was also a little warmer as well. Richard the camp manager was fantastic, as were all other camp managers and staff! We spend most of our outings on the lake, as well as a couple of walking safaris. Love the lake! A special mention also for our stay at The Hidem other than the exceptional service, was the overnight stay in the "Dove's Nest". Wow, how amazing. It's a definite must for anyone staying at The Hide!
All our transport pick-ups and drop offs where spot on. I would also like to comment on Grand Air. For our 5 flights between we had Rob and Rory, an Aussie who comes from the same suburb we live in Perth, what are the chances! Both guys were great. As on 4 of the flights we were the only 2 guests, Rob took slightly different routes to give us different perspectives, he even took a diversion and a loop over the Vic Falls! How amazing!
In conclusion, it was a trip to remember the only thing left now is to start planning the next.......!

Booking with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club is a 10/10 experience!!!
We had the adventure of a lifetime with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club! From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless and organized. We were transported to the airport and met the manager of the company at our hotel, making for a great introduction. My husband and I spent a day doing a brief hike over Mt Kilimanjaro and then spent 6 days on a safari with Godlistn. He was, without a doubt, the best guide we could have asked for. We saw every animal you could’ve dreamed of and his knowledge and passion made all the difference. One evening, even after a long day, he went the extra mile (literally) to help us spot a group of lions before we headed back to our tent. When we return to Tanzania (because we absolutely will!), we’re requesting Godlistn again and booking through this company. You will not regret it!

Unforgettable Tanzania Safari Experience with Meru Slopes – 5 Stars!
My recent safari trip to Tanzania, arranged by Meru Slopes, was nothing short of incredible. From start to finish, everything was handled with the utmost professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail. Here’s a breakdown of my wonderful experience:
Outstanding Planning by Jerome
First and foremost, I want to thank Jerome, who was in charge of organizing the itinerary. He was extremely patient, kind, and responsive throughout the entire planning process. Every request I made—big or small—was taken seriously, and he went above and beyond to make sure everything was arranged perfectly.
Jerome clearly cares deeply about guest satisfaction. He even followed up after the trip to get feedback and was always open to adjusting plans to accommodate both our preferences and local considerations. That level of commitment made a huge difference and really put us at ease.
Knowledgeable and Enthusiastic Guide – Julius
Our tour guide, Julius, was equally amazing. He spoke fluent English, was very enthusiastic, and had deep knowledge about the wildlife, nature, and history of the areas we visited. He made every game drive exciting and educational, and his passion for the region and its animals was infectious.
Julius made sure we felt safe and comfortable at all times and helped us spot all the Big Five and so much more! Thanks to his guidance, we were able to see a stunning variety of wildlife in their natural habitat—truly a dream come true.
Exceptional Accommodations and Service
We opted for a private safari, and all the accommodations arranged by Meru Slopes were top-notch. The lodges were clean, well-maintained, and staffed by friendly and attentive people, including many wonderful women working in hospitality who made us feel very welcome.
Each stay was thoughtfully chosen and provided the perfect mix of comfort and authentic safari experience. From meals to hygiene, everything exceeded our expectations.
Perfectly Handled Logistics
The team took care of everything from airport pickup to drop-off. The transitions between lodges, parks, and activities were seamless and stress-free. Knowing that we were in good hands the entire time allowed us to just relax and enjoy every moment.
Highly Recommended!
I’m extremely happy with my experience and will 100% recommend Meru Slopes to anyone considering a safari in Tanzania. Whether it's your first time or a return visit, you’ll be well taken care of, and your trip will be unforgettable.
Thank you again to Jerome, Julius, and the entire Meru Slopes team for making this adventure so special!

Very cheerful, knowledgeable and informative
The safari in general was absolutely amazing. The hotels, camping and food were all suitable for a trip like this. The driver, mtinangi, was exceptional at his job. He knew everything about the animals, answered every question we had and ensured all of our safety. I definitely recommend going on this safari with mtinangi as he made it a good value for our money.

Luxury in the wild
From the moment we arrived, the service at Wildmist Adventures was nothing short of outstanding. The staff greeted us with warm smiles and refreshing welcome drinks, immediately setting the tone for a memorable stay. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged from the personalized wakeup calls before sunrise game drives to the hot towels and snacks waiting for us after each safari. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about the wildlife. He made every drive feel like an adventure, and we were lucky enough to spot the Lion on our first day! If you are looking for luxury in the wild with service that feels like family, this is the place to be.

Amazing safari experience!
Our safari with African Big Cats was truly unforgettable. From the very beginning to the end, everything was perfectly arranged, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy the experience. We loved the lodges that were booked for us, with the Embalakai camps in the Serengeti being a real highlight for us. We were incredibly lucky to see so many animals during our game drives, including all of the big cats! Our guide, Claus, went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible sightings and experience.
We highly recommend booking with African Big Cats. They created a tailor-made itinerary for us via email, fully aligned with our wishes and budget. Thank you again to Claus and the entire team for making this such a memorable adventure!

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Wild Portraits Safaris
I reached out to Wild Portraits via a safari service website that featured numerous tour operators. Among the competition, James stood out due to his exceptional patience, politeness, and genuine curiosity displayed during our initial phone calls.
James swiftly emerged as the singular operator I wished to proceed with, and here’s why:
- Having substantial on-ground experience from spending extensive time on the safaris himself, he adeptly crafted a honeymoon package that perfectly suited my wife and me.
- He adeptly navigated our budget flexibilities and constraints to arrange an impressive array of delightful lodges and activities, focusing on maximising our day-to-day adventures, ensuring each day on safari and at the lodges offered a unique experience.
- A skilled photographer himself, James's comprehensive knowledge of various reserves and animal behaviours provided him with a distinct advantage in predicting animal locations and optimal times for photography, whether capturing sunrises, sunsets, or other moments.
- Our priority was to maximise game time and reserve experiences. James made certain our vehicle was ready, complete with packed hot breakfast boxes, for a prompt 6 AM departure every morning of the trip.
- Remarkably patient, he addressed all my queries, irrespective of whether they seemed 'silly' or insightful—from 'what to wear' at safaris, potential places to explore, to the animals we might encounter.
In summary, my wife and I enjoyed an extraordinary experience in Kenya, with Wild Portraits Safaris significantly enhancing the quality of that journey. We are eagerly anticipating more safaris and look forward to embarking on them with James and his team!

Excellent service, very professional and reliable, as well as being friendly and caring.
I was very lucky to choose Kiliclimb and have Logan as my guide! They are very reliable and good at communicating. On top of being super good at looking for animals he also knows a lot about animals and culture. He helped us taking so many amazing photos and we learnt a lot from him during these 5 days. Also the company arranged my birthday celebration without me expecting it which was so kind and heartwarming! Definitely worth the value for money as a dream trip! Highly recommended!
