Tanzanian unforgettable safari
In short: We loved the whole thing! Six of us took part in the four-day safari tour.
In detail: From the first contact, the staff were very helpful. We left Zanzibar to Arusha, then we went to the foot of Kilimanjaro to the Materuni waterfall and learned about the secrets of coffee production/making. The next day, we went to Serengeti National Park, where we spent one night, then continued on to Ngorongoro Crater, where we also spent one night, followed by a half-day Ngorongoro safari, then we went back to the airport and returned to Zanzibar.
James, our driver and tour guide, is a very experienced professional. He is very nice, helpful, and has a lot knowledge of wildlife.
We can recommend Simbaland Magic Tours with complete confidence. They were able to help with everything: airport transfers, purchasing plane tickets and organizing the entire safari.

Best Safari experience!
My husband and I had a wonderful 7-day trip with our guide James! We just to had arrive with our luggage and everything was booked and taken care of from A-Z. Their land cruiser handled all the tough terrains like a beast and was very comfortable for the long journeys from one NP to the other. All the stays provided were breathtakingly beautiful properties with great hospitality and we couldn't get enough of them! We were lucky to witness and capture some incredible action like lions trying to hunt down warthogs, a shy leopard climbing down a tree after getting some rest, two baby elephants play fighting against the backdrop of beautiful sunset and many more, all thanks to our pro-active and knowledgeable guide, James. His understanding and compassion for wildlife is commendable and we are very sure our experience wouldn't have been what it was without him. I would 100% recommend this operator to anyone I know, planning to go on a Kenyan safari. They have patiently answered my innumerable queries during booking enquiry and have been very accomodative of my itinerary needs. Thanks for making this our best trip ever!

Our tour operator was very accommodating, respectful, and helpful.
MoAfrika Tours was very easy to book. We just booked one day before our tour and we encountered no problem at all. Our driver - Thomas - arrived early in our hotel pickup point, was very kind and also gave some trivia about the province. We did a one-day trip to Pilanesburg Park and the tour was definitely worth it.

Five Star Service - Knowledgeable, Professional and Proactive
We had an incredible experience planning our trip with Michelle, the owner of Explore and Travel Africa. She dedicated a lot of time and had multiple calls with my family and me to understand our goals and tailor the perfect itinerary. From Cape Town and Stellenbosch to Zimbabwe, Botswana, Hazyview, and Kruger National Park, every detail was thoughtfully arranged.
Michelle booked us at fantastic hotels and lodges, and we felt we had the ideal amount of time in each location. Our guides were reliable, knowledgeable, and added a lot of value to our experience. Transportation was seamless and dependable throughout the trip.
Some of the trip highlights included staying at the Wallow Lodge and enjoying a sundowner overlook of the Gorge, spending a day in Chobe National Park, the breathtaking Panorama Tour, and our unforgettable time at Walkers Plains Camp in Kruger.
We especially want to highlight how impressed we were with Michelle when, despite circumstances beyond her control, she went above and beyond to ensure our trip stayed on track. When a Nor’easter was predicted to hit just as our initial flight to Cape Town was scheduled, our family panicked and we moved up our flight and booked the cheapest room at the first hotel she arranged for us. Michelle proactively contacted the hotel to upgrade us to the Junior Suites we were originally booked in, so we didn’t have to change rooms—a thoughtful and calming gesture.
The second situation was when one of the airports we were supposed to fly into grounded all planes and refused landing. Michelle reached out to us beforehand, giving us a heads-up about the possibility of being rerouted and advising us to still fly to that airport as she would handle logistics. Thank goodness she did, because the airline was not transparent and only informed us upon landing that we would be at a different airport. While other passengers were panicked and shocked, we felt reassured knowing Michelle was already working behind the scenes—securing us a private driver and ensuring we arrived at our destination on the same day.
We wholeheartedly recommend Michelle and Explore and Travel Africa to anyone looking for a well-organized, memorable adventure. Her dedication, professionalism, and proactive approach truly made our trip perfect!

Amazing Guide and Experience
Highly recommend Jimmy and his team! We saw all the big 5, and a large part of that was because Jimmy spotted a leopard way far off. Definitely needed an expert guide like him to see that. He knew so much about the animals and park and was friendly and kind. Also was the most cost effective option we found!
