Alex Marti of Larga - the most capable, caring & knowledgeable guide; loved his stories!
This was a tour of a lifetime. Alex Marti and his crew took us to excellent areas where we truly felt in the wild of Tanzania. He knows the locals, the parks, the animals and habitats. He understands and works to preserve the culture of tribal life and has a deep reverence for the land and wildlife. I felt safe and cared for-- and had many amazing encounters with elephants, lions and many others. I cannot say enough about Alex and his crew-- at the end of our time, I felt I made a dear friend and would recommend his company to anyone.

A perfectly planned safari
I contacted Gondwana to help me plan a safari in Botswana, and they put together a great trip. I stayed several nights at two camps and had amazing animal sightings. The staff at each camp were superb, from guides to wait staff to housekeeping. Everyone was extremely friendly, and the guides were very knowledgeable and clearly cared about making sure the guests had a great time. I was there for New Year's Eve and we were privileged to watch as the staff sang and danced in celebration. I'll definitely return to Botswana to check on the adorable leopard cub I was lucky enough to spend most of new year's day with, and I'll contact Gondwana to help me plan the trip again.

Extraordinary Experience!
What an amazing experience!! My girlfriend and I did the 4-day Massai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Naivasha safari and completely fell in love with Kenya's people, culture, wildlife and nature. Lucy helped us book the safari and made everything seamless. She answered all my questions and showed a lot of patience. Everything went as expected.
The star of the show was Martin, our driver and guide. He made our safari experience exponentially greater than it could have ever been. Very accommodating and caring... he truly cared about our experience and didn't just take us through the motions. Thanks to Martin we were able to see the Big Five and all the other animals we wanted to see. He has an encyclopedic knowledge about everything Kenyan (and African). Ask him questions about any animal, he'll give you an answer better than the National Geographic. I also enjoyed discussing Kenyan economy and politics during our long rides and breaks which he is very knowledgeable about as well.
Thank you Lucy and Martin for an unforgettable experience.
Until next time,

Safari
Our Madikwe Safari experience was wonderful. The booking and transfers to and from the reserve were very smooth. The Bush Lodge was extremely welcoming (including generously providing honeymoon champagne) and our guide was excellent. We had good luck seeing a variety of animals on the drives and at the nearby waterhole. Hopefully we will be able to make it back next time we visit South Africa.

A professional and rewarding Serengeti safari
Epic Tours was recommended to us by family who had been very satisfied with the service provided to them. From our initial email contact with Ezekiel Njema (owner and operator) we found him helpful and patient as he dealt promptly with all our queries. The safari itself was a unique experience as Houssain (driver/guide) knew exactly where to take us to see the big 5 and more. He is highly knowledgeable and informative, as well as being a considerate man. We strongly recommend Epic Tours to anyone looking for a professional, safe, child-friendly, tailor-made safari experience.

The Nile adventure safari with Destination Jungle Safaris
We begin our trip plans to visit Uganda in July last year and having made contact with various companies to provide us with itineraries and quotes, we found this company Destination Jungle more desirable for our travels.
The lady who was in contact with us, Christina was very informative, very friendly and also very professional with all our questions about our concerns. The trip was well organised and the guide we were assigned was perfect. Patrick was always very concerned with our comfort and he is a careful driver. So many animals he showed to us and also surprised us with interesting stories about the culture in Uganda. We loved our trip and have no complaints. We don't hesitate to recommend it

Best safari ever!
I did the 3 day trip to maasai mara and I had a really good time. I joined a group by myself but everyone was travelling alone so we had a good connection and the driver and people where we stayed really made us feel welcome! Service was good, food was oke and we spent a lot of time with the animals. I loved that we got background info about the nature. The tents with shower and toilet inside were fine to.
Safari honeymoon
We had a great time on our Safari. The Anda staff were very friendly and accommodating. They were quick to resolve any issues that came up along the way and always did so with a smile and a good attitude. We felt well taken care of and would not hesitate to recommend Anda to our friends and family.

Not bad, but it doesn't feel like it is the trip of the life time
We had an OK time with our tour guide Anwar. He was good when we first meet him. He was explaining things while driving on the first day. From the 2nd day onward, our guide was more interested in looking at his phone . Instead of guiding, he would most just answer our questions.
The Olea Lodge and Kati Kati camps are the good choice for our 4 nights stay. We were delighted to see the Olea Lodge is actually a lot better than the photos. Kati kati camp was an interesting experience. They have a good crew to make sure the food is hot and good. Our guide changed one of the full day game drive to go back to camp for 3 hours lunch and then tried to drive fast to catch up in the afternoon. We were not impressed as we have a five year old girl in the car and would prefer steady driving.
We were there in the low season, so there are some animals here and there but didn't have the "Wow" factor.
We are not happy that we almost missed our flight on the last day as the guide was late for about 40 to 50 minutes to pick us up from the hotel. Maybe our experience would be better if our guide was more Enthusiastic and not focused so much on his phones.
