Highly recommend - a great safari experiance
If you're looking for a private safari, mid budget, for two people I would highly recommend Gemfinders Tours and Travel. Our game guide and driver Lawrence was excellent. He knew exactly where to drive to find all the animals. We managed to really explore all the national parks we visited - Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. I really appreciated that our driver Lawrence was not so much "in your face" - attentive but not overbearing.
We stayed in three places:
Flair Camp Experiences - a basic camp, the tent was very clean, beds comfortable, tasty food with a lot of variety, some trouble with hot water, so have some wet wipes with you, wifi in the common area;
Buraha Zenoni Hotel & Resort - a western style hotel, with pool and wifi in the rooms;
Little Amanya Camp - again a basic camp with amazing views of Mount Kilimanjaro, clean tent with comfy beds and a sofa, the bathroom is open roof, so you can shower under the stars, the food is basic but tasty, wi-fi in a common area, but it reached our tent.
All in all, the safari and accommodation was great.
Two issues - first with the Masai village. I had a feeling it would be uncomfortable and we would be pressured into buying things and unfortunately it was exactly that. So if you don't want to be guilt tripped into buying some arts and crafts, then perhaps skip the village altogether. Second thing, the places that our driver recommended for souvenirs were seriously overpriced. One thing I bought, after haggling, was half the price at the airport shop, which is usually the most expensive. So that shows you how overpriced those shops along the way are. So wait to get to Nairobi, many things are cheaper there, even at the airport.

Our tour was well organized and everything we could have hoped it would be.
Tanzania choice safaris made my mom's retirement bucket list trip of reality. Every detail from the itinerary to the accommodations was perfectly thought out. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, kind and made every game drive unforgettable. We quickly moved on from looking for the big five to identify our own special priority lists, including finding the tiniest owl in the world. It truly was the trip of a lifetime and I can't imagine a better team to trust with such a special journey.

Amazing experience!
Amazing experience! Everything ran smoothly from the start, with Wayne replying to every question and concern almost immediately. I booked at the last minute and he was readily available to help.
The safari was fantastic: a Blue Canyon sunset drive plus two full days in Kruger. I’d been unsure about the reserve at first, but it was absolutely worth it for the chance to go off-road. Over three days we saw the Big Five and plenty more.
Accommodation at Sekekanda was lovely—comfortable tents, spotless bathrooms, delicious dinners and genuinely attentive service. I’d recommend this experience without hesitation.

Very good
The excursions were very well-organized. The drivers were excellent—punctual, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. You’re picked up directly from your hotel and brought back afterwards, which makes everything very convenient. I joined the tours to Lesedi Cultural Village, Johannesburg & Soweto, Cradle of Humankind, and Pretoria. Each one was a unique and enriching experience. Highly recommended!

5 star for Utukufu Travels & Guides Exaudy!
My recent 4-day safari with Utukufu Travels And Adventures was nothing short of spectacular, and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Tanzania.
We spent four incredible days exploring Tarangire (2 nights) and the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater (1 night), and every detail was perfectly managed. The experience was truly elevated by our guide, Exaudy. He is, without a doubt, the best and most attentive guide you could ask for. Exaudy was exceptionally professional, a superb organizer, deeply knowledgeable about the wildlife and ecology, and possessed an uncanny ability to spot animals even when they were well hidden. His dedication ensured we had front-row seats to every magical moment.
The service provided by the entire company was impeccable—attentive and timely. From the excellent accommodations to the organized transfers, Utukufu Travels focused entirely on making our trip seamless and enjoyable. If you want a truly professional and memorable African adventure, book with Utukufu Travels and ask for Exaudy!

The best way to explore Namibia safely and comfortably
In October, our group of friends took a 19-day tour of Namibia, which we booked with Peter Boer Tours & Safaris.
Everything was very well organised and went smoothly. Both guides – Peter was joined by Maddie Thiele – showed us the country in a wonderfully friendly manner. There were also various extras such as surprise picnics and an excellent dinner in the form of a braai. Highly recommended.
