Best experience!!!
October 2025
We had a wonderful trip with Shafino, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice! This was truly an incredible adventure, far beyond anything we ever imagined.
In just two days, we were lucky enough to see the Big Nine: lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, buffalo, rhinos, giraffes, hippos, and even crocodiles. It still feels unbelievable that we saw four cheetahs, including a mother with her baby, four prides of lions, and five rhinos. The elephants walked so close to our car that it felt like we could almost reach out and touch them. Every moment was pure magic.
Shafino is a true professional. He has an extraordinary ability to track animals, and he always knew exactly where to go for the most breathtaking views and unforgettable encounters. His passion and knowledge made the whole experience even more special!!
If you are looking for the best guide, look no further! Shafino is absolutely the right choice. He turned our safari into a once-in-a-lifetime memory, and we are so grateful for every single moment!!
Brian was a great communicator and punctual which made my trip easy.
Great service for the whole trip. Very happy with all aspects.

Safari Adventure Review
I had an absolutely incredible experience with this safari company! Everything was perfectly organized — from the pickup and transportation to the knowledgeable and friendly guides. The staff made sure we were safe and comfortable at all times, and their passion for wildlife truly enhanced the trip. We got to see amazing animals up close and learned so much about the local nature and culture. This was an unforgettable adventure, and I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for an authentic and exciting safari experience!

Successful experience
We had a good experience transferring from Johannesburg to our lodge in Pilanesberg with driver Sunny and on the return trip with driver Thomas. They were both punctual, friendly and safe drivers. We also had an excellent half-day safari experience with guide Kokie.

An absolutely perfect safari with incredible value.
I saw a leopard that had just finished its lunch, with blood still on its fur.
I saw a handsome lion up close.
I saw an elephant that got angry because we were talking and disturbed it.
I saw us having a meal in the car because Serengeti was too vast to find a dining spot.
And I saw the hyenas I’d been most eager to see.
Africa is truly amazing — a place where humans and nature coexist in harmony.
I’m so grateful to my friend who went through so many travel agencies and finally picked this one — the value for money is incredible! We had great accommodation every day and enjoyed every meal!
I also want to give a huge shout-out to our guide, Gilbert. He’s extremely professional, responsive, and wholehearted — like a walking encyclopedia, always explaining things to us. I learned so much! And thanks to him, we managed to spot the Big Five all in one trip — hahaha! He’s truly sharp-eyed and amazing at tracking animals. Absolutely impressive!

Exceptional service from start to finish!
From planning, through to the end of our safari Rob and the team at Tailormade were there to provide all necessary advice, information and support to deliver an exceptional vacation.
In the initial stages Rob took time to understand our requirements and provide invaluable advice, based on his experience, to develop an itinerary for our Kenyan safari. This itinerary resulted in smaller, more intimate lodges/camps and maximising our time in Kenya. The accommodation was carefully selected, Loldia House excelling in its attentiveness, quality and their amazing staff and Tangulia for being a unique bush camp where everyone is passionate and knowledgeable about the mara, wildlife and local people. From the planning to the start of our safari, communication with the team at Tailormade works well, with questions answered and amendments to the itinerary accommodated. Once on vacation/safari the logistics are managed by the on-ground team who provided an excellent service from “meet and greet” to the return to the airport. But in support of the on-ground team you have updates, welcome messages, etc from Tailormade and are able to contact Rob and the team should the need arise (which didn’t happen). Post vacation there is a welcome back/follow up with Tailormade for feedback regarding your vacation, which adds to the overall travel experience.
Tailormade provided a bespoke, personal and exceptional service, delivered with quality, we would highly recommend Tailormade.

I had a great time on Safari, and I felt really lucky. I even saw a rhino.
We are very grateful to our handsome and professional guide; he was a lucky charm. He always managed to lead us to the animals we wanted to see. The lunches he prepared were also delicious.hakunamatata

Professional.
From the beginning to the end everything was perfect arranged. The transport vehicle was old so the seats were not up to date. Rose from the backoffice is very good, our driver/guide was a very safe driver. We can recommend Gatelinks to other travellers. Value for money is ok.
