Kilimanjaro Conquered Finally
We have just returned home from Tanzania where we successfully climbed Kilimanjaro with Migration Venture Africa. Before the trek, everything went smoothly: we met our hosts for the briefing and checked to ensure we had all the necessary gear for the trek. We had a wonderful team of 2 guides, 6 porters, and our cook. They were all incredible individuals who did their best to keep us safe and comfortable while also enjoying the journey over the 7 days we spent on the mountain. They helped us overcome several challenging moments, such as summit night, when we needed their guidance in the dark and assistance to reach Uhuru Peak. I have nothing but praise for these amazing individuals and Amos, who put everything together.

Professional and experienced, organized a fantastic trip.
Planning was smooth and precise with Jonyo, our agent. Execution of plan was smooth. Every aspect of trip was wonderful- lodging was comfortable, food delicious - value was very good. Moussa, our driver, was superb. We always felt safe He is very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna, very kind, fun and always accommodating. Serengeti Smile went above and beyond with returning shoes that were left behind back to Arusha. We can wholeheartedly recommend Serengeti Smile for your Safari.

My life-long dream holiday came true!
We had an amazingly perfect time on the 8-Day Panorama Route, Blyde River Canyon Tour & Greater Kruger National Park Safari with Mmilo Tours. The communication, service and reliability were all excellent. Highlights were:
• We got to spend time with the extremely knowledgeable and lovely Patrick Sylvester and saw some amazing things.
• The very comfortable room (with the biggest bathroom ever!) in Dar Amane Guesthouse.
• The wonderful experience in Moholoholo Forest Camp, where the accommodation was beautiful (in the forest with the sounds of nature), the food amazing and time with Malcom the guide on the bush walk was something very special.
• The Mjejane River Lodge and everything about it (accommodation, guide Lookie, the food, the animals roaming around) was a perfect end to a wonderful trip full of memories.
Thank you!

Wonderful trip for Grandparents and 9 yr old Grandson
All in all it was a fabulous vacation. Everything went off without any complications or issues. Flights and car transfers all very good.
Lodges
Kariega: Beautiful lodge in beautiful setting. Staff was good. Guide Monde was great. Game viewing excellent. Room excellent. Lodge was very cold because of weather. We just dressed warm. Missed one day of safari because of rain storm. Nothing to do at lodge but use internet. No board games to play or things for kids to do. They did have stuffed animals in their shop so we bought a couple for our Grandson and he ended up playing with them. Food was good for adults. Did not think this place was set up for kids. Would not recommend to children under 12. Definitely recommend for adults. Great sightings here!
Shamwari: Excellent lodge with spectacular rooms. This is lodge is a "Must" if you have kids. Setting and game viewing not as good as Kariega but still very good. This lodge was EXCEPTIONAL from rooms, to guide - Sam, to staff, to food (the Chef is amazing) and things to do. We were highly impressed. Everyone was so friendly and seemed to enjoy working there. It is a kids heaven and the staff was just great with our Grandson and the other kids. This was definitely a winner! We can't say enough good about this lodge. Grandson wants to go back once a month.
Hog Hollow: Great location for activities. Staff were very good and so was food. Not much to do at lodge. Rooms were outdated and had funky smell. No shampoo or hair conditioner. We had our best weather here 82 F. We went to the Elephant Sanctuary, Monkeyland, Birds of Eden, Wild Cat Sanctuary, Reptile Sanctuary, beaches and Plettenberg. Our Grandson had a blast at all of these places and so did we. It was his first time at the beach and he couldn't get enough of it. Our drive/guide Irma was very helpful and was super nice. Recommend the area but not Hog Hollow. After staying at the other places it was not up to par. Would have preferred a more updated place or something on the beach. But we survived and had so much fun!
Victoria & Alfred: How could we beat this place in Cape Town. I don't think it would be possible. Beautiful rooms and views. Delicious food. Great (BEST) location. Highly recommend.
Monique did such a wonderful job on creating our vacation and we appreciate all of the work she put into it. We will have life-long memories from this trip. Our Grandson was excited to start everyday because of the constant new experiences. It was a 10!

Amazing safari led by dedicated experienced local business
We went on a family safari with Longway and it was an incredible experience. Personal communication from start to finish, felt totally in safe hands and could ask all the questions we needed. Itinerary adjusted to suit us and then totally taken care of. Amazing quality accommodation - fantastically luxurious given our surroundings and met at start and end by Ann. Then the actual safari - Abu was a fantastic guide and wildlife spotter who knew exactly where to go and could spot things while driving that we missed even with binoculars. He was able to educate us about all the wildlife we saw and could fill us in on learning about Tanzania too. He was also very patient and accommodating and friendly to our three teens. I got quotes from a bunch of people but very quickly honed in on Longway and we are so glad we did. 100% recommend.

Unforgettable Safari with John and Baraka – Wildlife, Nature, and Magic Nights
A huge thanks to John and Baraka from Serengeti Smile for giving us an unforgettable safari. John’s driving skills, sharp eye for wildlife, and deep knowledge of the parks, combined with Baraka’s seamless organization, made the trip perfect from start to finish. We explored Tarangire, Serengeti, Northern Serengeti, and Ngorongoro before ending in Zanzibar, spotting the Big Five as well as hyenas, warthogs, zebras, giraffes, elephants, and countless other animals. The camps inside the parks were a highlight – comfortable, welcoming, with excellent food and the magical experience of sleeping surrounded by nature.
