Wonderful Experience!
Having experienced a tour to South Africa 2 years ago (safari, Victoria Falls, Cape Town), we knew we wanted to return for the "safari only" experience. We also wanted a private tour. From our first email to Selma, we knew we were in good hands. She responded quickly to every question and helped put our minds at rest when it came to wire transferring a fairly large amount of money to a bank in Africa that we knew nothing about! She helped us refine the trip to reflect our exact wants and needs. We chose to travel exclusively in Tanzania, visiting 5 parks. The entire trip went without a hitch, from being picked up at the airport, to being dropped off 14 days later. Our guide, David, was excellent; able to answer any question, great sense of humor, and a spectacular driver! He knows the parks so well, and tried to take to spots where everyone else was not, making for a much more private feeling. We saw every animal possible, including the requested python! He was always on time with a plan in mind for the day, stopping a thousand times for photo taking. The jeep was always clean at the start of the day (no small feat in a very dusty area). Our accommodations ranged from 3+ star to 5 and we were happy with all, with only a few minor issues. I would suggest looking online to see what you will be getting and change any you don't want. We decided on a combination of tents and lodges which was a wonderful experience. The staff at every one of them were incredible. To sum up, Makasa did an excellent job providing us with the safari trip we'd hoped for......quite the trip of a lifetime!

Great!
We had a wonderful experience. Everything was perfectly organized for a tailor-made tour exactly as we wanted, with quick e-mail contact and excellent suggestions. Our driver (Stewart) was laid-back and friendly, and very knowledgeable about the nature and animals. Most of all he had a remarkeable spotting ability, finding us everything we could wish for (he even managed to get very up close and personal with a huge male lion!). Abdullah was also an excellent, excellent cook and alltogether we felt the entire team took great care of us and was motivated to get us the very best experience.
Highly recommended!

An absolutely wonderful experience
It was a wonderful experience all the expectations we had amply fulfilled. Our guide was very professional, he showed us the beauty of this destination always meeting our requests.
The perfect organization, we hire on our own flights and safari with them and there was no problem. We were picked up at the airport and at all times we were accompanied and perfectly served.
Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience and beyond thrilling!
A well-planned and organized safari that extended for three amazing days across the Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti. Everything from the stay, food, transportation and the safari itself was beyond perfect. I highly recommend East African Safari for an African safari.

Experience with Wild Africa
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Africa for the first time and as an overall experience it was very good. We were however disappointed with the travelling arrangements in South Africa. A min-bus is just not big enough for some one 195 cm tall. The Cullinan in Cape Town whilst a good place to stay for a short business trip is not really suitable for tourists. We were very disappointed with the Kigio Conservancy, so much so that we cut short our stay there and went into Nairobi at our cost instead. Also stated travel times in the itinerary for East Africa were nothing like the actual times taken. Apart from Kigio the service we received everywhere was first class.

Best experience ever, with the most professional company!
My wife and I had been dreaming with an Africa Safari for a long time and we were finally able to go on Aug 2014. After doing a lot of research of many of the companies that offer private safaris we decided to go with Amani Afrika. After coming back, I have to say that it was the best decision we had ever done. Godwin and his team are truly trustworthy and honest professionals that will do whatever it takes to make their customer happy and have the most amazing experience in Africa. We started talking with Godwin a few months before the trip since we wanted a 9 day Safari but also including visits to different tribes, small cities and a local school where we wanted to go and see what we could do to help. We also wanted to experience some of the fancy lodges but also the tented camps in the middle of the Serengeti. He was always very responsive and worked with us to put together the most customized safari that would fit all our needs and our budget.
It was a bit scary to wire such a large amount of money but we felt very good when we were received by him as planned at the Kilimanjaro Airport. From the beginning we felt that we made the right decisions since everything was perfectly planned, on time and as agreed with him. After meeting him we definitely would fill comfortable with planning another safari and wiring the funds. Our guide Peter was very professional and knowledgeable about the area and very skilled to find all the animals. His English was very good and always very flexible to take us where we wanted and wait the time we needed to enjoy the trip.
Godwin really exceeded our expectations and showed his full dedication to his clients when the airline we were flying left our bags in the connection in Ethiopia and he picked the bags at 9pm at the airport and drove over 2 hours in the middle of the night to deliver our bags to the camp where we were staying so we could enjoy our vacations. We were very grateful and wanted to tip him but he didn’t even accept it. We could see that he really not only is a good business man but also a great person!
