So much more than expected!
I booked this tour because I knew it would be the best way to experience the area around Kruger National Park. Neil was incredible & an amazing example of this company is all about! Its customers. Neil was prompt in responding to all of my emails in trying to plan what I thought would be the most enjoyable activities for my husband and I. He was very flexible & hospitable.
What I expected was a nice tour guide who would sort of distance himself from us until we arrived at our final destination & began engaging in our activities.... but not Neil. Neil was all about sharing the history and facts of South Africa. He was very informative in all aspects of our trip. Honestly, it was like traveling with a friend. We all shared biltong & had some great conversations. He took the time to get to know us, & vice-versa! He also, was our personal photographer at times ( we didn't have to ask, he asked us!), and he knew some great places for some awesome photos! He gave us great tips on other places in Africa to visit! If something wasn't quite working out in the schedule, Neil would figure out a way to make it work. He was always going above and beyond!
If you are looking for a tour guide company, I would highly recommend this one, unless you don't like to have fun! Should we require one again.... this is who we will choose, hands down!
Thanks, Neil! You helped give us a trip that we will never forget!

Amazing safari with Active Tanzania Adventures!
We saw a lot of beautiful animals, the cook (Muli?) was amazing (we had some delicious and varied food!) and the driver was always looking after our security and our comfort!

Trip of a lifetime with Wilderness Legends Africa.
Great local guides provided a fantastic experience in Tanzania. I learned so much more about the people, animals and places than I expected. It is a beautiful country with diverse history and incredible wild animal viewing. We were able to see the "big 5" and so much more. Highly recommended.

Outstanding Adventure
I can not say enough good things about Wilderness Legends. The trip was fantastic both in the variety of landscapes, animals and people that we met but especially because of our very knowledgable and personable guides who went to every effort to be sure we saw everything we wanted to see, were cared for in every way and helped us understand the great beauty and complexity of Tanzania. The accommodations were wonderful, all locally run. Very comfortable but more importantly full of the warmth of the Tanzanian people. I have been to Tanzania 30 years before and on three other safari trips in East Africa and South Africa, but none were as memorable this trip. Thank you so much for a trip we can never forget
Review about Moremi Game Reserve by Mary
Moremi was another favorite destination. So many active animals in June. Hundreds of elephants and many lions, buffalo, wild dog, hyena and leopard. I especially liked our campground which was near one of the bridges. Beautiful spot!
Review about Chobe National Park by Mary
Chobe National Park was probably my favorite stop because of it being on the river. We saw so many elephants playing in the water........hundreds of buffalo crossing the river. And so much greenery! Very different than the more desert-type areas.

Cape Town/Sabi Sands/Victoria Falls
We believe in using local travel agencies in the country we are visiting. We found Pembury Tours and worked with Laurette. We emailed frequently and occasionally Skyped when that was more efficient. She took our input, offered suggestions and options and we ultimately booked a two week vacation almost a year ago. Of course in that time things change. The hotel in Cape Town undertook renovations during our planned stay. Laurette notified us, suggested a different nearby hotel and we were very happy with our stay. The airline we had booked stopped flying our route on Friday's which was the day we were to leave so we had to leave the US on Thursday. We had two months notice and one email to Laurette got us into the hotel a day earlier. One other reason we book through an in country agent is that if we have any type of issue they are in the same time zone so issues can be addressed promptly. Happily we had no issues. Our itinerary went off without a hitch and we had a wonderful time in Africa. The internet, email and services like Skype have shrunk the world. Consider that Pembury tours offers excellent personal service and will be right near by if any issue arises while in South Africa. We are satisfied customers.
