Great flexible company, with a very good driver/guide
During the election situation in Tanzania our flight from the Netherlands was canceled and we needed to reschedule our safari trip.
Professional Safaris Africa was very helpfull and flexible to reschedule everything.
We had a very nice 3 day safari with Deo, our driver/guide. He was a good spotter and could also explain a lot about the animals in the safari parks. We slept at Kankari Lodge in Karuka. Fine accommodation although we did not enjoy their diner or lunch boxes much. This did not take away our enjoyment of the safari. We were lucky to see lots a male lions and elephants and other wildlife in the National Parks. Be prepared for long days in the car.

The experience met expectations
We are very happy that we chose Serengeti African Tours for the safari on our honeymoon.
The company was always responsive to our messages and provided us with a detailed itinerary of the experience, which was fully respected.
A great part of our satisfaction is thanks to our guide, David (King David), who made the safari truly amazing. In addition to taking great care of us every single day, he is a wonderful person — always smiling, friendly, and helpful.
If that weren’t enough, he has an incredible knowledge of African wildlife and nature, and he shared with us many interesting facts and insights about animal behavior. You could really see his passion for his job, and he always did his best to make our experience outstanding and to help us see as many animals as possible.
The accommodations were of a high standard, and we felt very comfortable in every place we stayed.
I truly recommend this company — I believe they offer great value for money!
A big thank you to the whole team, and if you choose them, make sure to ask for King David — you won’t regret it!

Santaviva - very attentive, knowledgeable and friendly guide with good local connections.
Ivan was our guide and the entire trip was very well organized and performed. It already started with the straightforward and swift communication during the phase of evaluation and selection. Ivan was always very responsive. During the trip we were very well guided and Ivan was always here for us and supported our family in all aspects. We felt very safe, welcome and comfortable during the trip. Thank you so much 😊

Excellent company to deal with and very quick to respond to communications
We had an excellent agent in Katelynn. She answered our pre tour emails very promptly and professionally. We had an issue while we were at Kruger and I sent an email to Katelynn explaining what had happened. By the time we went to dinner a few hours later, she had contacted the resort and sorted the matter with them to my satisfaction. The transport to and from Kruger was very good, with a very short stop to use the facilities but not much more. The service station overlooked a watering hole where we saw rhinos and ostriches, definite bonus. As well as the Kruger tours, we also had a private tour of the Panorama route, the scenery was amazing and I would highly recommend taking this trip. Our second Kruger trip was the best experience, and we saw all the Big Five, we were delighted. Our room at Kruger Adventure Lodge could best be described as mediocre and could do with some attention. However, the staff, especially Nikiwe were so friendly and the food was of a reasonable standard. Overall a trip to remember and I can highly recommend The Mzansi Experience agency.

The tour operator was exceptionally organized, knowledgeable, and made the entire safari experience
I had an amazing experience with Fantastic Time Travel! From the start, their communication was clear and prompt, making the booking process easy and stress-free. The tour was well-organized, and everything ran smoothly from pick-up to drop-off. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure we got the most out of every moment on the safari. The service was excellent, and I truly felt that I got great value for my money. Overall, Fantastic Time Travel is reliable, professional, and delivers an unforgettable experience — highly recommend!

Imara made Kenya unforgettable
Our trip through Kenya with Imara was nothing short of extraordinary. From start to finish, everything was perfectly planned, flawlessly executed, and genuinely personal. Every transfer was smooth, every detail taken care of — we never had to think about logistics once.
The lodges they picked were spot-on — each one matched exactly what we wanted, from the Nairobi stay to the safari camps and finally the stunning beach resort. The safari itself was phenomenal. Our guide and driver, Patrick, was outstanding — knowledgeable, patient, funny, and clearly passionate about what he does. Thanks to him, we saw and learned far more than we ever expected.
Imara also surprised us with moments we’ll never forget — like a completely private sundowner deep in the Mara, complete with a chef, bar setup, and a Maasai dance celebration just for us. It felt surreal — like something out of a film.
In Nairobi, Edward was an excellent guide — engaging, insightful, and genuinely fun to spend the day with. He even introduced us to a brilliant local spot for the best grilled fish imaginable.
We travel often, but this experience stands out as one of the most thoughtful and well-crafted trips we’ve ever taken. Imara didn’t just plan a vacation — they created memories we’ll talk about for a lifetime.
Couldn’t recommend them more highly. We’ll absolutely be back!

Birthday Trip of a Lifetime — Safari & Beach Bliss in Tanzania Thanks to African Big Cats Safari!!!!
Our recent trip to Tanzania was honestly one of the best experiences of our lives. It felt like living inside a nature documentary one moment, and a tropical daydream the next.
We started with a safari through Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and the Serengeti — and it was beyond anything we’d imagined. Our guides (Obedi and Frank) were not only incredibly knowledgeable but also nice, funny, and patient. Every day brought new surprises: elephants walking right beside our vehicle, lions and leopards lounging in the shade, and endless herds of wildebeest and zebra stretching across the plains — absolute magic.
The lodges were beautiful and welcoming, with amazing food and the friendliest staff. Sitting around the campfire at night, listening to the sounds of the bush, felt surreal.
After days of adventure, we flew to Zanzibar — and wow, what a paradise. The beaches were pure white, the water crystal clear, and the atmosphere completely peaceful. We spent our days swimming, snorkeling, wandering through Stone Town, and just soaking up the island vibe.
Tanzania stole our hearts. The people, the landscapes, the wildlife — everything exceeded our expectations. It was the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation, and we came home feeling completely inspired (and already planning our next visit!). Thank you to Naomi, Obedi, Frank and everyone at African Big Cats Safari who made our trip truly life-changing!
If you’ve ever dreamed of going on safari or visiting Zanzibar, don’t wait — just do it. It’s truly life-changing!

Very good
We visited Victoria Falls in mid October and Zambezi Expeditions made all the arrangements like accommodation, safari, vic falls tour and a day trip to Chobe national park. We were 5 friends travelling and the arrangements were great. Airport transfers were on time. Oscar came to say bye and he accompanied us to the airport on the last day of the tour. Day trips were well organised and especially Chobe national park safari. Everything went on smoothly. The vehicles were good. I shall highly recommend this company. Planning to utilise them again for my Botswana trip. Thanks Oscar, Silence and Co for the fantastic vacation.

Excellent service with lots of smiles at a very fair price
We recently spent 9 days in Madagascar with a private tour organized by “I Travel 2 Madagascar”. The tour was very well organized and coordinated by Lova, the head of this tour company, and her staff. Lova made sure that we got to see as many highlights as possible in our short time there. She helped us choose which sights were the most important to see and whether to drive to save some money and or to fly to not save some time. Communication before and during the tour was very responsive. Everyone we met in the company was always friendly and helpful. They were always on time or early. The value for money was excellent. We had self-booked everything on the African continent and the cost was similar to self-booking, but the experience was so much easier and better! (But please remember to add on the cost of tips for the guide, driver and local guides.)
The sights were all wonderful!! (I would recommend at least 12 to 14 days in Madagascar to see more of the sights with less rushing. Three weeks would be better.) I wish we had more time because the wildlife (like all the different types of the lemurs) and the landscape were unique. The wildlife parks that they chose for us were excellent for learning about, observing and even interacting with wildlife. I had both chameleons and lemurs climbing on me!
The guides and drivers were excellent and all the hotels were up to our western standards, being clean, air-conditioned and with private bathrooms.
In summary, I highly recommend “I Travel to Madagascar” tour company. They gave us an excellent experience in their country and did it at a very fair budget price. I will definitely travel with them again if I ever get to go back.
