Amazingggggg & Breathtaking
I first went to Zim on the year 2011 the experience was of out of this world,friendly accommodative warm people..There is no such thing as poverty in Zim like they show on TV.i visited almost every corner where many tourists don't get to go and mixed with the locals. A place called Mbare(a flea market of its out style) ,the Chinoyi caves(natural caves beautiful)Lake kariba,flea market at Borrowdale one of the most expensive well maintained beautiful structural houses in Zimbabwe. I did not do the obvious "Lake kariba" the eastern region of Zimbabwe where you have mysterious mountains. I went to Zimbabwe from that year every year three times a year. The local food I couldn't stop eating. I have visited Harare in and out(from the city to the villages)went a braai in Bulawayo. Experience Zimbabwe as it is a great country with a rich culture and visit where not may goes.
To be quite honest you can never talk about Zimbabwe and not see my eyes popping. Its a country I will visit as many times. I suggests tourists start going into the depth of the country not only what is shown when you google.

safari vacation
My trip to Kenya was amazing! I contacted Africa Flash Mc Tours about 6 months prior and peter was great at answering all of my questions and recommending things to do well in Africa. We decided on a tour to Nairobi National park and a 3 day 2 night safari at Camp Kibro in Amboseli Park. Once we arrived we met with our tour guide Leanord he was fantastic he knew so much about Kenya, what was in the national park and on the safari for animals and the types there was etc.. The only negative to the trip was peter who joined on the safari was late joining us and on a game drive we needed to wait for him. Otherwise the trip was fantastic, I already want to return.

The best place to do some real Safari
Everything was arranged as expected decent place to stay in Masai Mara. The buffet was good food and the guide was very informative. I had the best Safari and hope for some more in future

Great experience
We had a wonderful time traveling with Wildebeest. The best part of the safari, outside of the obvious siting of a multitude of wild animals, was the privilege of being guided by Hamza, our wonderful and knowledgable driver and guide. His patience and knowledge of the flora and fauna was outstanding. You don't often remember guides in the long run, but Hamza is tops and if it's possible to request a guide and driver, ask for him. Our lodgings were good to great, the food was good, and all in all it was a great experience. Thanks.

Fantastic and unique experience
it was the first time for us in africa. unfortunately we didn't reached the camp booked due to damaged roads caused by bad weather and got stuck in the Ruaha Nationalpark. But soon we got another camp and were able to do our safari. it was a really fantastic experience and a great adventure. the driver was very professional and we felt very safe in all the roadtrip. the safari is exciting. we saw a lot of animals in one in a half day and the guide had a huge knowledge of the animals and plants.

2 night special at Vic Falls hotel
Very happy with the itinerary organised over the 3 days and 2 nights we had a Vic falls staying at the Vic Falls hotel.
We were on honeymoon and went for the stable deluxe room with a sundowner cruise and dinner at the palm on day 1 and a private guided tour of the viuc falls park and a late afternoon helicoptor ride followed by dinner at Boma. All excellent and well spacved out to allow time to relax at the hotel too. The guide we had for the majority of the events was Brian (local to the area) who was punctual, helpful and very knowledgable, but everyone we dealt with was very helpful and friendly.
I would happily recommend Falcon Safaris to others!

we have had a marvellous time in Krueger Park
the Organisation, to start with, was very outstanding. Rochelle was fantastic, she found a way for everything, pick up at the Airport, Lodge in Johannesburg, pickup from there to the park.... and everything worked out very well. Nice People at the whole journey.
The service in Krueger Park was uncomplicated. Clean houses, tents and toilettes, (in the tent it becomes hot). The guides were very nice, eating fine and over all absolutely nothing to complain. We really loved staying there and will come again.
Animals? yes! Great Adventure!

Amazing once in a lifetime experience!
it was just fantastic! Locations were stunning, staff were all very friendly and helpful, food was delicious and level of service was excellent. I can't really fault anything during our stay!
Kenya Walking Safari is a top notch company. Their communication with us during the planning of our trip was always fast and accurate. They made sure to answer all our questions (and did we have questions...) prior to our trip.
From the moment we land in Kigali, we were in their hands. The rest of the trip we drove around the parks with our guides. The guides' knowledge was impressive!
I would highly recommend them for your trip.
Things you need to know:
- it gets cold in the morning. You start the morning with 3 or 4 layers, a hat and a blanket over your knees, but by 9am you're down to t-shirt. The temperature gradient really is that severe.

First Safari
We have just completed our first safari at Nottens Bushcamp at Sabi Sabi area which was wonderful. Thank you to Justin Perumal at Paperjet travel for the recommendation and for making all of the arrangements. Justin was very helpful through the whole process and followed up with every detail including the pickup and return to our rental cottage in Mount Sheba. We have no reservation in recommending this travel group for anyone considering a safari in South Africa

Well balanced programme.
Everything went according to plan and the programme was well balanced. We had originally thought that having the Sunset Cruise on the day we arrived (after a long overnight flight) was a mistake, but we were wrong - it was a good relaxed introduction to the area and kept us going which was a good thing; having the helicopter flight early in the programme was also an excellent idea, again giving us a good overalll picture of the area. And every vehicle turned up on time, and the guides were friendly and professional.
We thoroughly enjoyed the Victoria Fall Hotel, even if they did originally put us in a room at the back - because it had twin beds - without any explanation beforehand, until we objected.
One other minor crictiism of the hotel organisation. There were a number of other people like us who were due to take the Rovos train late in the afternoon; the hotel presumably knew this but had made no attempt to arrange a late check-out. Obviously if there are no rooms available, one has to accept that; but instead of the guest having to hassle Reception to see what could be done, the hotel should beforehand take it upon itself to see what is possible and inform their guests. Otherwise a great hotel!!
