Patient, respectful and knowledgeable
The expedition was incredible. We were able to spot 4 out of the big 5. Tom was always on top of everything and allowed us to see the animals from privileged spots without it being too unconfortable for them. He had great knowledge about the different animals and explained a lot during the game drives.
It was my first time on a Safari and it was a great experience. Tom surprised us with a moment outside of the Jeep during sunset for some reflections and sharing. It was really special.

great services
Our local driver and guide Musa in Zimbabwe was fantastic! Knowledgeable, punctual and friendly, he showed us the best spots of Victoria Falls. Smooth trip and great local insights, highly recommended.

Trip of a lifetime
Our 12-day safari with Africa Big Cat Safaris exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, William and Naomi were incredible during the planning process, patiently answering every question we had and making everything feel so easy. When we arrived, Emanuel took the time to meet with us before (and after the safari), which was a lovely personal touch and showed how much they genuinely care about their guests’ experience.
Our guide, Khalid, was exceptional. His knowledge, patience, and ability to find incredible wildlife made every day unforgettable. We always felt safe, well looked after, and never rushed, and his passion for Tanzania and its wildlife really shone through.
Every lodge and camp they selected was fantastic, each with its own unique charm, and the food throughout the trip was consistently excellent. The entire itinerary was seamless, taking us through Arusha, Tarangire, Ngorongoro, the Serengeti, and Lake Manyara, with every day bringing something new and memorable.
This was truly the trip of a lifetime, and we couldn’t recommend Africa Big Cat Safaris highly enough.

This holiday exceeded our expectations, 10/10.
We're so glad we booked our Kenya safari with Meektrails, since the very first moment we contacted them, Paul gave us all the information we needed, he made the changes we asked for the itinerary and answered every question we had. Our guides, James and Joseph, made our trip so special, sharing about Kenyan culture, they were so nice and friendly, we had a great time. Special mention to Joseph, he is very knowledgeable about animal behavior, we learned so much from him, he has more than 20 years of experience and we were so lucky to have him as our guide. The hotels were really comfortable, the food was really good, we got an upgrade at our hotel in Masai Mara and this was the best place we stayed in Kenya. Hell's Gate bicycle safari was a really nice experience, and also a good way to stretch our legs since most of the time you are in the car moving from one park to another or on game drive. We definitely recommend Meektrails for Kenya safari, they know their way around and they take care of everything, they made us feel really safe and comfortable. You just need to bring a good camera and good binoculars, they look after everything else.

A wonderful experience, personalised, well organised and a brilliant guide.
We were somewhat cautious about booking an "organised" tour having only done so once previously and been greatly disappointed. Not so on this occasion! From starting the booking process Knap Tours were attentive and responsive and communication was superb. We were picked up from our Cape Town Hotel by our Tour Guide, Macdonald, and, as good fortune would have it, we were the only people on the tour so had a lovely comfortable SUV to ourselves with Macdonald. He proved himself to be an excellent driver (this comment from someone who is a lousy passenger!), very flexible and cogniscent of our interests and an amusing companion. We are both less young than we once were (76 and 82) and he tailored the activities with this in mind!
All accommodation was excellent and of a high standard and each day we took Macdonald's recommendation of restaurants and experienced a variety of different cuisines, without exception enjoying every one.
We visited Mossel Bay, Botlierskop Private Game Reserve, Knysna, Bloukrans Bridge (where we declined the opportunity to Bungee Jump!), Tsitsikamma Forest (where with the encouragement and accompaniment of Macdonald one of us managed the River Mouth Walk!), Jeffrey's Bay, Addo Elephant National Park and Oudtschoorn. It's difficult to pick out highlights but and Botlierskop Game Reserve was really beautiful and had a good variety of game and we were able to see some fascinating interaction between species. We finished with a sundowner in the peace and quiet observing the wildlife. Driving through the Garden Route was a lovely experience but, scenically, driving through the Klein Karoo was amazing, such different and spectacular scenery and quite unexpected. We had to miss one highlight which was Cango Caves but, due to recent storms, the road had been washed away.
The tour was really good value, not grossly expensive but of a high standard. We really cannot recommend Knap Tours enough and look forward to perhaps taking another tour with them on our next visit to South Africa.

Tanzania Safari
We chose Tanzania for our very first safari tour, and it truly was the best decision we could have made! Goodluck proved to be an outstanding driver‑guide — always attentive, sharing his deep knowledge of the wildlife, trees, and local culture. He knew exactly where to take us during the game drives, ensuring unforgettable encounters with the Big Five. We wholeheartedly recommend him!

Everything was amazing!!!
I visited Arusha National Park, a Maasai village, and Chemka Hot Springs, and every tour was incredibly well organized.
What really made the experience special were the guides. Every single one of them was kind, friendly, and knowledgeable. They made us feel comfortable throughout the trip, and their professionalism made a huge difference. Thanks to them, every excursion was smooth, enjoyable, and truly unforgettable.
Arusha National Park was absolutely beautiful, the visit to the Maasai village was a fascinating cultural experience, and Chemka Hot Springs was incredible and beautiful. Each destination offered something unique, and I enjoyed every moment.
I would definitely recommend Visit Creation Safaris to anyone looking for an authentic experience in Tanzania. Thank you to the whole team for making my trip so memorable 💖
A once in a lifetime experience!
I can’t recommend Tai Adventures enough!
From the very first communication Dennis was amazingly helpful, professional and knowledgeable. He helped me to arrange 2 trips and everything was seamless.
We arranged a private tour in Nairobi and then private tour to the Masai Mara overnight, it was one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. Dennis and Fred made the experience so fun and we saw so many of the big 5. I would highly recommend picking the private option for a truly unique experience.
It was my birthday and they even kindly arranged a cake for me at camp - this was such a lovely personal touch.
You will not regret booking with Tai Adventures!

Energetic, knowledgeable, and worth every penny !
Alex was the best driver. Picked us up on time from our place and was telling us everything we needed to know on the way there. Had great conversations and really felt like this experience was going to be different from the start. And it was! The tour was amazing. Before lunch we saw 4 out of the big 5 and also a bunch of other animals.
