Fabulous trip with Africa Uncovered
Wow - what a fabulous trip that Africa Uncovered organized! My husband and I had such a wonderful time on the 7-Day Botswana Magic and Incredible Victoria Falls tour with our guide Norman. We learned so much about Botswana and Zimbabwe from him during the week and had such a grand adventure! From the game drives in Chobe, to the bush camping experience in the Okavango Delta, the trip was truly a dream come true. Everything was seamless and organized so well. We were grateful that Africa Uncovered offered an affordable safari experience that allowed us to check a travel dream off our bucket list that may otherwise not have been possible.
A couple of things that may be helpful to know: The trip includes all meals, which is a mix of hotel meals and meals out at restaurants that your guide will take you to. You can order anything off the menu, which was fabulous, excluding alcohol, which you would cover on your own. We were comfortable in all of the accommodations, which are mid-range, and particularly loved our time at Nata Lodge, which was a really unique room. While the drives from destination can be a bit long on some days on bumpy roads (about 4 hours from Chobe to Nata, and then Nata to Maun) we always had time in the afternoon to have lunch, relax a bit, and go on a game drive. Game drives were included in the trip every day (Chobe safari cruise, Chobe AM and PM game drives, game drive at the Nata Bird Sanctuary, mokoro and walking safaris in the Delta, and a game drive at Elephant Sands - so there are A LOT of opportunities to see wildlife. You'll also see animals from the car while driving - we saw a lion, elephants, zebras, giraffes, a sable, and numerous other things crossing the highway). We saw a number of other large tour groups doing similar itineraries, and I was so grateful to be in a small group with just my husband, Norman and I so that we could ask a lot questions and really get to know the country and culture. I highly recommend this trip and this company!

excellent tour operator, provided such satisfactory guide service
Dominic is an extremely experienced and professional guide. He has eyes like an eagle and can spot wildlife in no time. He’s also very responsible and reliable, and such a pleasure to be around.
If you travel to Tanzania, you have to book Dominic. I even downloaded WhatsApp just to stay in touch with him. I highly recommend him and will definitely hire him again on my next trip!

The best experience
We had an amazing time at our 2 day fly in fly out safari with wildebeest footsteps. Our tour guide John was highly knowledgeable. We saw so many animals and learned a lot about them from him. Erick was very helpful during the booking process and responds quickly to any queries.
Everything was covered from the moment we left our hotel in Zanzibar so we didn't have to organise a thing. The car was very comfortable and even had drinks and snacks if you got peckish between meals.
The price of the tour was great value for money. I would highly recommend this tour company.

Honest, professional and caring.
Tom and Rachel provided excellent communication and recommendations throughout the process. We have been on many safaris but have never used the same company twice, however having experienced Ndutu Green Explorers we will DEFINITELY be using them again.
Our driver / guide, Gilbert, was the best we've had the pleasure of using. Gilbert is an excellent and safe driver with an incredible knowledge of wildlife and an amazing instinct for finding the animals we wanted to see. Gilbert also served our lovely lunches, which inluded beers, wine and hot food while we relaxed and enjoyed the views.
We will be using Ndutu Green Explorers again soon and requesting Gilbert again and I would recommend that you do too.

Perfect attention to detail, good communication, great suggestions equals a wonderful trip.
My safari was perfectly planned by Jessica at Dancing Zebra Safaris. Every one of my expectations was exceeded, and I especially appreciated the attention to the small details. From the moment I stepped off the plane and was greeted with warm smiles I knew this trip would be special. Jessica truly listened to what I wanted from this trip and thoughtfully brought that vision to life.
From the welcome at the airport, to my wonderful safari guide, John, who expertly navigated the Serengeti plains while pointing out a leopard lounging in a tree, to watching cheetahs and elephants. Not to mention the exceptional accommodations at Lemala Nanyukie, where I fell asleep each night to the sounds of the Serengeti, I felt personally cared for every step of the way. Every detail was taken care of, allowing me to enjoy a seamless and unforgettable experience.
This trip was particularly meaningful because it was a return to Tanzania and the Serengeti for me. Watching the sun rise over the endless savannah brought back cherished memories while creating new ones when my beloved husband and I visited together.
I highly recommend Jessica and Dancing Zebra Safaris. They will plan a trip of a lifetime for you as they have for me twice now.

Above and beyond!
I couldn’t have been happier with our 11 day safari experience in Kenya and Tanzania with Peak Season Africa Safaris! Stephen an amazing coordinator and communicator, prompt, responsive, attentive and patient in working with us to put together an excellent experience at short notice. All of the accommodations were wonderful - with friendly, accommodating staff and yummy healthy food. We learned so much and felt safe and cared for by our three drivers - Kevin, Vincent and David. Amazing price for all accommodations, every meal, 24 hours a day Guide/driver and an unforgettable experience!!!
Best service I have experienced from start to finish
We had an amazing time on our safari. The entire team was incredibly kind, welcoming, and professional throughout our trip.
Our guide, John, was outstanding and went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience, doing everything he could to help us see the Big Five.
Amos and Betty were also fantastic. They personally came to meet us at the beginning of our trip and even took us out for lunch at the end. What stood out most was their genuine interest in hearing our feedback and understanding how they could further improve the experience for their guests. That level of care and commitment truly reflects how much they value their customers and strive to provide an exceptional safari experience.
We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a memorable and well-organized safari adventure.

Employs the greatest guide Mkwanda
Great experienced with a guide who went above and beyond for us n finding animals. Within two days we had already spotted 4 of the big 5. Great accommodations, good food but what really made the trip special was the effort our guide Mkwannda made in finding us what to see and taking special time to meet our schedule.
