Excellent Kenya Safari
We all thoroughly enjoyed our 9-day Kenya safari with Dedan. He was a wonderful driver and guide. It's magical how he got us to just the right spot before the animals appeared, and amazing how knowledgeable he is about all the plants, animals and geography of the area. The company was very easy to work with and all the arrangements went smoothly. Our accommodations were excellent, especially the tented cabins inside the parks. I highly recommend this company.

They desire to give us the best possible tour, providing safety to us in every way.
We only had two days for Safari available to us. PenFam made those two days very fun and memorable. I couldn’t believe the number of animals that we saw, but they seem to know exactly where to look. They also arranged for excellent lodging for our team at a very reasonable cost. Everyone in our team was thrilled with the adventure; going home to share stories and pictures with families and friends.
I have been taking small groups over from our church in the U.S. since 2003. We have always hired the professionals at PenFam to guide us on our tours. They are the best!!

Outstanding
Excellent communication when making arrangements. The operator did everything they could to provide us with outstanding service. We actually did a 4 day 3 night safari with Wild Planet, in Kruger National Park. It was amazing! Our driver Chris was great. His knowledge of the park was remarkable, and he went above and beyond to seek out specific animals that we hoped to see. He has an extensive background in animal behavior which gives him an edge. His assistant and our chef was Hope. He is also a skilled guide, but his craft is hospitality, he planned and executed amazing meals for us, making us feel at home. Together they are a formidable team that provided a perfect visit for us. One day, due to their diligence we actually saw the “Big Five”, in a single hour early one morning! Heartfelt tanks and appreciation go to Hope, Chris and Thale at Wild Planet, for an unforgettable safari in Kruger.

Logan. probably the most passionate and friendly tour guide we’ve ever seen, so as the company
The company has great patience helping us to arrange everything before trip. They gave really bargain price as well. The service they gave even exceeded what we expected. Logan- our tour guide tried his best to do the game drive chasing almost all animals for us. We’ve collect all the big 5 in this trip because of him. Although we did go for the top package, the operator still give us really quality meals not like the other company with dry sandwich lunch box. Make us feel really comfortable and able to enjoy the safari experience. Will definitely go back again and with the same company.

An Amazing Safari experience with Shafino!
Shafino made our Safari a magical experience. With over 25 years as a guide, he is knowledgeable and passionate about the game drives. He shared a wealth of information about the animals and the parks we visited. He has a keen eye for sightings, always anticipated the moves of each animal and parked or maneuvered in the best place to view them. We saw all of the big nine park animals plus so many more. One morning we saw over forty lions in various prides, it was unbelievable! Shafino has a love for the Serengeti that makes you appreciate every aspect of it. Truly, this was a once in a lifetime experience, but it wouldn't have happened without our amazing guide! Thank you Shafino!!

A great Safari with Meru Slopes
We took a 8 day Serengeti and migration tour with Meru Slopes and had a great time. Shadrack who prepared our itinerary was patient and professional in helping us with an itinerary that fully met our requests. Our driver and guide, Domician, is very knowledgeable and knows all the animals an plants. He was constantly in communication with fellow drivers to get first hand info about the animals and try hard to get a good spot for us to take pictures. We were lucky to see the wildbeest migration which was magnificent. All the tented camps were nice, food and service was super good. This trip was amazing! Asante sana!

An epic variety of wildlife
We weren’t sure which country in Africa to visit for our first safari. Tanzania has a large variety of national parks and conservation areas and we saw an incredible amount of animals. The country is safe and stable and the people are welcoming and friendly.

Great Safari trip
We did a 10-day tour in Kenya. It was an amazing experience with an outstanding team of John, our tour guide and Sadrack, our driver. John has deep knowledge of wildlife that made every game driver thrilling.
I found Apodiformes Adventures from Safari Bookings website; Silas reached out promptly after I submitted my safari request and he always answered all my questions promptly. Initially, I had some reservations about the tour because it required a 40% deposit up front and the balance paid in cash on the first day. When John picked us up, his professionalism helped me to feel more at ease and began to trust the tour company.
In the midway of our trip, there were some miscommunications on our lunch and game drive, John and Silas stepped in and resolved the issue right away.
We were thrilled to spot all of the 'Big Five'—lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino, and leopard—as well as 'Ugly Five'—hyena, vulture, wildebeest, marabou stork, and warthog.
Witnessed the Great Migration is truly the pinnacle of a safari experience.

Exceptional service
They are very attentive to your needs, I dealt with Vera who took time to understand my needs and was able to curate the right package that would meet my family's expectations since we needed a beach and Safari trip in regards to customer service and value for money, She kept in touch all the way through our trip and even after to make sure we were fully satisfied. Would definitely use Peaks and Safaris for my future travel

Amazingly helpful and efficient: thank you Melanie!
We had the most incredible 2 week trip to Botswana: staying in three stunning Desert and Delta lodges. Honestly, every aspect of the trip massively exceeded our expectations…it was the perfect adventure! The wildlife and scenery are extraordinary, and we could not have been looked after better by the kind, generous staff at every lodge.
Loved the trip to Vic Falls and cruise on the Zambezi at the start too, which made a lovely relaxing start to the holiday.
Massive thank you to Melanie from Pembury: the itinerary was perfect, and we can’t wait to visit again!!
