Attentive, courteous, and informed.
A condensed day trip that worth the while. Although we didn’t catch a glimpse of the cats, we did see quite a lot of elephants, kudus, antelopes, rhinoceros, zebras, and warthogs.
Worth the while.

RELIABLE SAFARI COMPAMY
Well organised company We had an incredible safari experience with this company a group . They ensured prompt communication and booked a trip tailored to our needs and preferences. Staying at their resort in amoseli was the highlight of this trip, and our camp had unexpected visitors such zebra and girrafes during our stay. Our guide, leroy , was very efficient and friendly entertaining and extremely knowledgable about birds and animals IF YOU ARE BOOKING A SAFARI PLEASE INSIST ON LEROY AS YOUR GUIDE THROUGH THE SAFARI .
Overall, it was a memorable trip!!

Perfect holiday with the perfect driver!!!
Glorious 3 week holiday in Zanzibar and Northern Tanzania!
After not a few forays into East Africa this was the winner ... and all thanks to the people behind the scenes helping us plan like Manuel ...
and the driver who rules them all ... JAMES KAAYA!!!
The variety of places we wanted to go and the experiences we hoped to have all came to life seamlessly, safely and was nothing short of good times with plenty of laughs!
The historic walks through the sites of Zanzibar, the water activities of the ephemeral Indian Ocean, and trek through the monkey-filled forests were a solid introduction to the country.
However the Star of the Show was the safari adventures with James at the wheel!
He possessed an uncanny ability to spot animals from far and near, to make predictions where animals would be when all the other drivers seemed to be clustered in the wrong spots and to get us within what seemed like touching distance of each and every animal of the National Parks and Conservation Areas! We easily ticked every box of our hit list. Lions exceeded 100, cheetahs and leopards by the dozen, gnus in the thousands. James seemed to know people in every park, hamlet, and nondescript backroad we traversed endlessly both giving and receiving tips on where the hot spots were that day.
We passed not a few breakdowns, drivers and despondent looking tourists stuck in muddy ravines and wheels spinning along lakeshores, but our James navigated these obstacles effortlessly, patiently and always kept us safe!
Not only did he never get lost but on several other occasions helped other drivers find their accomadations!
He seemed to have a built-in GPS!
We really felt like we won the Driver Lottery this time!
Well played Mr James Kaaya! And thank you Unlimited Expeditions - Soul of Tanzania! We shall return!

Very nice 3 day trip
End of January I did a 3 day trip from Johannesburg to Pilanesberg. The staff was very nice especially T-Man as a Ranger, Alex as a Driver, Noxi as Host in the Camp and the food from the chef was very delicious. I would for sure do it again! Especially the morning and evening drives are a special experience!
There were several mix-ups regarding tent and iternary. Hopefully this will be fixed soon. That‘s why it was just 4 out of 5 stars.
Regarding animals I saw a broad variety. Unfortunately I did not spot big cats (no Lion, Leopard, Cheetah). But others spotted them during my stay in different game drives so it always comes down to luck :D

A full experience, not just a game drive
Moloko was a fantastic guide, full of energy and great at spotting game. She always tried to make sure you got a good view. I really enjoyed the day as a full experience. From getting picked up by Subi in the morning to the delicious braai lunch. I think it was very good value for money and the communication on booking and pick up was great. I felt comfortable that they were professional and had it all in hand. Very smooth operation.

Fantastic Experience and Great Hospitality
It was fantastic experience with Alpha Dean Tours . Jemima is a great host arranged transport from and to airport and provided a great hospitality. Our Tour Guide was more experienced about masai mara and animals was a added plus. Overall I would recommend this solo and all group of travellers. It was totally worth it.

Incredible all-round experience, brilliant guides and top service
We had a number of stops on our itinerary and asked Tegu to organise the trip for us - they were brilliant along every step, from booking (always available to answer questions clearly on WhatsApp), helping us understand how visas work, transits across the border, etc. We wanted to have safaris in both Kenya and Tanzania, as well as to climb Ol Doinyo Lengai volcano and see lake Natron. They organised the border crossing, all the tour days, different vehicles and drivers on different sides of the border, and all the admin associated! We really felt that we were in good hands. The driver/guides were also really friendly and experienced, and we felt able to ask them anything we needed. For the price, they can't be beaten! Would definitely recommend and we certainly feel we got our money's worth.

Loved the gorillas and the chimps!
We had a great time! The communication prior to the trip was good. It was a bucket list opportunity to do the gorilla trekking and chimp trekking. We also got to walk with giraffes and zebras in Uganda which was magical. Some things to be improved on- after the first day, we had such busy itineraries with a ton of driving, we got to the hotel at dark almost every night with little time to relax. So the itinerary could be reworked in that regard. And the food at the hotels in Rwanda were ok (they were better in Uganda) but the quality was much different than the previous safari we took in Kenya/Tanzania. However, for a short 6 day trip in Rwanda/uganda we got to see the animals we came to see which was amazing. Kelly was a good guide. We felt for the price it was a good value.
