Extraordinary safari experience
We had a great experience with Wild For Game Safaris. Lucas, the owner, greeted us at the airport in Maun where we took our flight to Xakanaxa airstrip to start our safari. From the very beginning it felt it was a high-end experience. Max, our guide, was waiting for us and took us on a safari before arriving in our camp. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about his work. We felt very comfortable and well taken care of throughout the whole trip by Max and the team. The camp amenities were nice, clean and comfortable. Besides the guide, a chef and two assistants were always taking care of the 3 of us. The food was absolutely delicious (entrance, main course and dessert, and even cakes in the afternoon), we had a hot shower available whenever we wanted, a hot water bag put in our beds every night, so many details! And always greeted with a smile. The wildlife encounters are next level too, we saw so many different animals! On the last day at the Chobe Riverfront, where we saw groups of people on boat excursions, we had a private speedboat arranged for us. After that, we had arranged a transfer to the Zimbabwe border, so Max took us there, helped us with the paperwork, and made sure our transfer in Zimbabwe was there to pick us up.

Booking with Safari Life is fast, communications clear. Overall stress-free!
We booked a 4D3N stay in Sabi Sands and Kruger and it was an efficient, flawless, and stress-free coordination with Safari Life c/o Rochelle. She offered options to go with our budget until we came to the end result which offered us the most value for money. Safari Life made all the arrangements including our pick up and return to Johannesburg in a comfortable car. Our accommodations at Umkumbe River Lodge and Langa Langa Safari Camp are comfortable and secure. Umkumbe in particular offered light breakfast and sundowners during game drives which made the experience extra special. The food in both accommodations are superb, the staff so kind, and our game drive guides so knowledgeable especially Thomas in Langa Langa. Most important to note, we saw the Big 5 in this part of the Greater Kruger area in such a short stay! Rochelle who was our main contact with Safari Life has been very accommodating, flexible, and proactive in communicating arrangements. I truly appreciate that I felt her assistance and care from start to finish.
I highly recommend booking with this tour company.

Passionate about animals and our experience
The trip of a lifetime made so special because of Serengeti Clarity, Frank and our guide, Hardson!! I will be back year after year and will use Serengeti Clarity and request Hardson!
They made a dream come true. We started planning the trip a month before our arrival, which I thought would never be possible. Traditionally, people plan a safari months and months out, but this is the sign you need to request a quote and see if you can make it happen! Frank responded immediately to my quote request and sent over a beautifully proposed itinerary that aligned with my comfort level.
My friend and I wanted some level of luxury while keeping budget in mind. You have a say in your trip planning with Frank. To be honest, his first proposed was perfect and he turned it around within 24 hours. If you want nicer accommodations, just ask and he will make happen. If you want to stay in a budget, just ask and he will make happen. There is nothing he won’t consider and he will be quick to respond.
Our guide, Hardson, was perfect for our trip. He is so nice and knowledgeable and you can feel through your trip that he is doing what he loves. He wants to make the trip special for you. Thinking about all the little things. Setting up lunch with scenic views. He saw my friend and I liked to have a few beers and wine on each day and it was always in the cooler. He was always checking in with us. And, most importantly, we got to know each other as people on this trip.
The moment that was the most special for me was when we stumbled on a Caracal. His eyes lit up and he got so excited. He said he has only seen it 3 times in his 9 years. You could feel his excitement along with ours. It just goes to show that the Serengeti is a special place that keeps on giving and the passion from our guide Hardson made our experience truly magical.
I will be coming back to the Serengeti and will be going with Serengeti Clarity and requesting my new friend, Hardson.
The only thing I would have done differently, but I didn’t have the time, is to stay in Central Serengeti a couple more days. But, I’ll be sure to do that next time.

Agnes from Mercy Africa was very responsive and helpful, made the trip and our transfers very easy!
Agnes and the team of Mercy Africa has been very responsive and helpful during booking stage and the trip itself. My partner and I did the 5-day Safari Experience with comfortable accomodations, which were followed as is on the itinerary sent to us, very organized. Serengeti was surreal and we had a great overall experience. Thanks to our host agency, Mercy Africa.

Hands Down The Best Experience and Travel Agency
Issa is one of the greatest agents anyone could ask for! He was a fabulous agent that was communicative, responsive and above all transparent. Our safari trip was exceptional and would highly recommend everyone to use Destiny Explorers. They are Tanzanian owned, unlike many of the other companies out there, so they know the best spots for safari, negotiate the best prices and secure the best accommodations.
Also, your driver is arguable one of the most important parts of your trip. When you pick Destiny Explorers, you must ask for Omary. He is not only kind and caring, but he is so knowledgeable and intelligent. Omary helped us find every animal numerous times! We saw the Great Migration, saw the crossing of the Mara (it’s much rarer and harder to find than you think, and most don’t get to see it) saw leopards numerous times, more lions than we can count to include HUGE males and baby cub’s nursing, rhino and other animals we didn’t even know were in the Serengeti. Destiny Explorers and Omary will always be our top recommendation for anyone looking at coming to Tanzania.

this tourist agent is not to be trusted
i booked a 14days tour with Dosasha, this cost me nearly 5000USD, and the tour start very badly, as i and other 2 family can not have our land cruiser to kick off the tour from the first day, just because of Dosasha fail to pay the driver. they indeed manage to find car to take us to Masai Mara, but we have been told by the hotel that Dosasha have not paid them also. when we transport from Masai Mara to Nakuru, Dosasha send us a driver who is not qualified to drive us with a car which has a damaged car brake. and the driver can not drive safely with damage windscreen wiper. he also has not been paid by Dosasha, so he can not have enough diesel, we have to pay the fuel for him. he also do not know the road to Nakuru, and nearly have accident on the road because of the terrible road condition. when we finally finish the terrify journey to Nakuru, Dosasha also fail to pay the national park fee, so we can not enter and go to our hotel, we have been stranded in front of the national park gate for 3hours. when we finally have the agreement with the entrance staff we will pay the national park fee tomorrow when the POS machine can be used, and go to check in the hotel, we have been told Dosasha fail to pay them, and we have to pay by ourself to check out. after all of these drama, we give up with Dosasha, and ask for refund. they also promise to refund. but again, they fail to follow the promise to refund for 4times up to now, and no refund recieved.

Unforgettable Safari Adventure
My safari in Kenya was truly the experience of a lifetime! From the breathtaking landscapes to the incredible wildlife sightings, every moment felt magical. The guides were knowledgeable, warm, and passionate, making the journey not only exciting but deeply enriching. Watching lions, elephants, and giraffes in their natural habitat was simply unforgettable. The hospitality, organization, and attention to detail exceeded all expectations. It’s a must-do adventure.

They delivered a well organised, comfortable safari - a fabulous job.
From the outset Gosheni were great. Norah was helpful, responsive (usually within the hour) and swiftly organised our tour. Once we arrived, everything went smoothly, with our pick up being ready to take us to our hotel, despite the ungodly hour. Prosper, our guide, was friendly, funny, patient and knowledgeable, enabling us to see a huge variety of animals and birds. All the accommodation was well located, very comfortable and provided good food. All in all, they did a very good job. I would recommend.
