Excellent trip to the Lion & Safari Park
We had a spare half-day in Jo-burg and took this tour. Carson, our good, friendly and informative driver, collected us from our hotel and we arrived at the park in plenty of time to explore the shops before our safari drive. Masana was our guide for the 2-hour trip and he provided an excellent tour, full of information about the wonderful animals. It was great to get so close to them. Only slight reservation was that we thought the leopards and hyenas' enclosures seemed small. Overall, highly recommended and good value!

Best holiday ever!!!
We made 4 days 3 nights safari as two person with Dancing Simba company and it was literally GREATT!! We made reservation one month before the trip with Lucy. She was very sweet, helpful, professional and reliable. She guided us correctly in every matter. I feel very lucky to meet with her. Our safari with our driver Penda was truly unforgettable. He is an excellent driver with incredible eyes — thanks to him we were able to spot all of the Big Five. It’s clear that he knows his job very well and loves what he does. We also have good cook with delicious foods. On top of that, the whole team we shared this experience with was amazing and so much fun. We enjoyed every moment, both on the road and while watching the animals in their natural habitat. It was an absolutely fantastic experience — full of joy, laughter, and unforgettable memories. Thank you for everything, we are really appreciate 🙏🏼

Amazing experience overall
We had an incredible experience with Travel Africa! From the very beginning, the communication with Lorreen was amazing – she was always available to answer any of our questions and made us feel truly cared for throughout the entire process, from planning to payment. Our guides, Simba and Joel, were outstanding. They were so friendly, knowledgeable, and dedicated, always going the extra mile to track animals so we could see as many as possible. Thanks to their effort and enthusiasm, we had the chance to enjoy unforgettable wildlife sightings and learn so much along the way. Everything was well organized, the food was good, and we felt completely taken care of at every step. Overall, an amazing experience that we will never forget – highly recommended!
MY
Drive w Lambs
Lambs is a very good and experienced guide and made sure we got to see as many of the Big 5 as possible. Highly recommended.

Absolutely Unforgettable Tanzania Safari & Arusha City Tour!
We had an incredible family adventure in Tanzania! The safari was breathtaking, with amazing game drives where we spotted lion, leopard, cheetah, and even the elusive black rhino — truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Leonard, our guide, was exceptional: knowledgeable, passionate, and incredibly patient, making every moment exciting and educational for both adults and our 3-year-old daughter, who absolutely loved it!
The lodges were stunning, cozy, and full of charm, with fantastic hospitality and delicious meals that made our stay even more enjoyable.
The Arusha city tour was equally fascinating. Elisante, our guide, was friendly, informative, and engaging, providing excellent insights into the culture, history, and daily life of the city.
A huge thank you to Rajab and Sopai for creating these unforgettable memories for our family.
This trip was perfect for families and wildlife enthusiasts alike, offering a seamless combination of adventure, comfort, and unforgettable experiences.

A Magical Family Safari & City Adventure in Tanzania!
Our family trip to Tanzania was nothing short of magical! From the moment we set out on our safari game drives, we were completely captivated. Seeing lion, leopard, cheetah, and even the elusive black rhino in their natural habitat was an experience we will never forget. Leonard, our guide, was exceptional — knowledgeable, patient, and full of passion — making every encounter thrilling and fun for both adults and our 3-year-old daughter, who was absolutely enchanted by the wildlife.
The lodges were spectacular, cozy, and beautifully designed, with warm hospitality and delicious meals that made every evening a delight. Our days were perfectly balanced between adventure and comfort.
The Arusha city tour with Elisante was equally impressive. His insights, stories, and friendly guidance brought the city’s culture and history to life in a way that engaged the whole family.

We had a fulfilling and charming vacation, well organized and with all what we needed
The trip in the Okawango delta was well planned in a well balanced variety of sites and accommodations. Bogosik is a prepared leader, experienced as well as reliable, organized and accommodating making the trip totally stress-free and enjoyable.
If we could give any hint to make a slight upgrade of comfort available for future clients, we would suggest to have a list of “suggested items to bring with” especially for those that are not used to camp nor to Africa’s wilderness. The list would include: binocular, flashlight ( or front light), towel, soap+shampoo, personal pillowcase, warm pijama: well defining the temperatures that drop in the evening and within the tents.
We also agree that of great appreciation and help would have been to have:
- a paper map of the itinerary we were going to drive and the exact positions and names of our campsites,
- blankets available on the car for the early morning drives
- a couple of hammocks to hang at the campsite for relaxing speartimes
- a sort of “uniform” T-shirts all same colour ( even without a logo) for the boys that help with the camp ( cooking and camp setting)
If you wish and if it would help for future clients, we are totally available to be reached for references and guarantee of total satisfaction.

Fantastic trip, caring guide
We travelled with 261EXP in July of 2024 on a trip from East to West in Madagascar. It was an amazing trip! We began our planning early in 2024 by communicating with Christina. She was incredibly responsive to our emails and supported us in making some adjustments to the trip to accommodate additional stops for us and to make the trip work for our four year old. She was regularly in contact with us until we arrived in country and were met by our guide Fano. I cannot say enough good things about Fano. He is not only an amazing guide but a truly wonderful person. Our son still talks about his jokes with Fano! Throughout the trip he was attentive and flexible to our needs and always having fun and positive. He embodies joy for his job and country.
We have traveled pretty extensively around the globe and this trip was definitely a favorite. Madagascar is an amazing and beautiful country. Each day we saw new things and learned more. Fano explained what we saw in terms of landscape and also culture to add to our appreciation. He even supported us in taking our son with us to hike Tsingy which is a family experience we will always be grateful for!
We would strongly and without hesitation recommend 261EXP to anyone interested in a trip to Madagascar. You will have one of the best trips you have ever taken!
