Our Safari tour was organised by Mmilo Tours and we were very impressed. Extremely professional.
Mmilo Tours were excellent, right from initial enquires through to our Safari tour. From pickup at OR Tambo airport we toured the Panorama Route and spent 5 days in the Kruger National Park. Mmilo Tours responded quickly to all our questions and tailored the tour to meet our budget, preferences, accommodation level and tour guides.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Mmilo Tours to anyone planning a Safari trip to South Africa.Michael

Amazing 5-day tour with a professional & knowledgable company!
From the minute I reached out to Zambezi Quest Travel with my enquiry, I found Brighton to always be extremely professional, responsive to my numerous questions and accommodating. Nothing was too much and the tour itself was extremely well organised, ran very smoothly and always punctual. Such a memorable and jam-packed itinerary with the Sunset River cruise, guided safaris at Hwange & Chobe NP’s (highlihhts!), Boma Dinner & Drum Show, the breathtaking Vic Falls and an exhilarating trip to Devils Pools on Livingstone Island. Brighton and his team were so knowledgable about all the wildlife I saw (and such an abundance!!), generously sharing information about their country and its people. A real highlight was a tour to Monde Village which was a wonderful experience and staying at Drift Inn was just perfect - with visiting wild elephants in the evening! Very grateful to Brighton for ensuring that my tour ran seamlessly and that I had the most unforgettable experience! Highly recommend Zambezi Quest Travel if you want a memorable private (away from all the huge tour groups!), affordable, informative, friendly & sensational experience!

A very professional tour company
Trek safaris organized a wonderful safari to Murchison falls National Park. The drive was long but well worth it. I enjoyed seeing the Lions , giraffes, buffalos and elephants. Looking forward to returning for another safari.

Chasing Lions in Murchison Falls.
Thank you Trek Safaris for oranizing an amazing trip to Murchison Falls National Park.The choice of the Lodge(Sambiya River Lodge) was superb, with staff that were eager to help at anymoment.The Falls were just breathtaking and the power that they had could be felt from a distance.The Safari kept on delivering with us seeing 4 of the Big Five in one trip.My highlight was the lions and the way they were just so calm about us taking photos.

Beautiful 10-days safari But special attention to the car is definitely necessary
Beautiful 10-day safari with Destiny Explorers
We arrived in Arusha 2 days before the elections and wanted to leave as soon as possible due to the expected unrest. Destiny Explorers and Issa Hamisi were very helpful and put together a safari trip within half a day that exactly met our wishes.
We opted for a 10-day private tour with 9 nights.
It was absolutely a great trip and everything was very well arranged. Compliments for this all the more because everything was so short in advance and there were major internet problems nationwide.
Our guide and driver, David, was very friendly and knowledgeable.
He had the car completely under control, even though it was very old and worn out.
The 4-wheel drive no longer seems suitable for this kind of safari. It has a worn-out interior; the cooling and brake systems (leaks) were faulty, which made us finally feel unsafe despite our excellent driver.
The lodges where we stayed were of good quality and the food was fine.
The payment of our trip was quite difficult.
We booked on the spot, this also had to be paid on the spot. Online with credit card or directly via our bank was not possible due to missing IBAN number of the Tanzanian bank. Finally paid via Revolut which we have been working on for about three days because these kinds of amounts are extreme checks. Received scam warnings which caused a lot of unnecessary stress.
So a number of points of attention for this fairly young organization.
Furthermore, an absolutely great trip!

Once in a lifetime experience to see gorillas
We booked a 2 day Gorilla Tracking Tour from Kigali through Dav Safaris and had an excellent experience! Our agent, Reagan was organized and prompt with responding to our emails. On our tour, our driver Charles was very good and navigated bumpy and rough roads very well. We stayed overnight in Kisoro, and had an early morning drive to Mgahinga Gorilla National Park to start our morning Gorilla Tracking. The park rangers brought our group of 8 on a 2.5 hour hike in the to track the current location of the Gorilla family; the terrain was bushy but not too steep. We would highly recommend Mgahinga as the one gorilla family there is large and social! We saw 3 silverbacks, several adult gorillas, one adolescent and one 2 month old gorilla. The animals are very gentle and came up very close to us. It was an unbelievable experience seeing these amazing animals only a few meters away. We spent 1 hour with the gorillas taking photos of every gorilla in the family. After the tracking hike we were driven back to Kigali.
If you are looking to see the gorillas in the wild, I would really recommend booking with Dav Safaris as they are very experienced and professional. It is less expensive to see the gorillas in Uganda, and flying into Kigali is the closest airport. Remember to get your e-visa for Uganda in advance.

A Truly Unforgettable and Amazing Experience
Our safari was an experience of a lifetime and much of that is thanks to Pepi for planning an outstanding trip and Stewart our incredible guide.
From the moment we arrived, every detail was thoughtfully arranged. Pepi crafted an itinerary that perfectly balanced wildlife, culture, scenery, and relaxation. The logistics were seamless- accommodations, transfers, and activities all flowed effortlessly, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the journey without a single worry.
Stewart, our guide, was exceptional. His knowledge of Nambia's wildlife, landscape, and history was remarkable, and his passion for the country made every moment richer. He has a gift for spotting animals, reading the landscape, and knowing where to be at just the right time. Beyond his expertise, Stewart was warm, patient, fun, and genuinely made us feel cared for throughout the entire trip. We always felt safe, informed, and inspired.
Highlights of our trip included the 4 x 4 tour of Sandwich Harbor, the amazing dunes of Sossusvlei, unforgettable wildlife at Etosha, the humbling visit to the Himba tribe, and Devil's pool at Victoria Falls. This was more than a holiday-- it was a life changing experience.
I would do this trip again and again.

Do not book with this company!
Two friends and I paid thousands of dollars for a 5-day safari with this company. We arrived in Nairobi only to find out that they cancelled on us the day before we were due to leave. Two other people ended up on another safari with us who had the same problem. It has been 5 weeks, and they have not refunded any of our money, nor do they respond to our communications. We believe we have been scammed! Do not use this company.

Unique and stunning place!
My partner and I visited Kenya for the first time and went to Masai Mara two nights, Amboseli one night and another night at Lake Nakuru.
We absolutely loved all of them but the favourite is for sure Masai Mara where we managed to see all the big five in a very short time, including Cheetah and leopard.
Lake Nakuru is much smaller but the landscape was stunning and of course, is the house of Rhinos.
Amboseli,if you love elephants like we do, it’s a paradise. It’s plenty of them, as well as monkeys, giraffes and many mores.
People are extremely welcoming and great positive vides.
