Wonderful Experience
5/5

We have just returned home and cherishing the great African Safari covering Tsavo (west),Ambesoli,Naivasha and Masaimara. It was indeed a fine experience and thank you all for managing our whole trip in a wonderful way. Special thanks to Helder for planning and organising the trip and Joseph who was very hospitable and driven / guided us superbly.He took care of us well during the whole trip of 11 days and has become a great friend of ours. All the places were very memorable particularly Ambesoli and Masaimara where we could see lots of wild life and migration. Accommodations were also good in all the places and food were nice.My wife and self are very satisfied with the whole trip and we would like to come back to Africa in near future and surely will look forward to your great service again.

Adventure to Chaka Ranch
5/5

The trip was awesome. The preparation in advance of the trip in terms of vehicle selection, inspection (visit to parking yard), recommendations (e.g. Wi-Fi) and time agreement were very collaborative. On the date of departure from Nairobi, I was worried that the driver would not arrive on time. To my surprise, he was there earlier that 95% of us. I was privileged to take the front seat and we had many hilarious stories with the driver who was quite knowledgeable and experienced. We made stopovers as requested by colleagues and the driver was very accommodative. Upon arrival, he ensured that all of us had checked in before leaving.
On the return date, he came at exactly the time we had agreed. Since most of us were still having lunch, a distance from the reception area, the driver offered to go a pick my colleagues from the site since it was raining. This was very innovative of him and a kind gesture that was appreciated by all.
Our journey back was awesome, same as the day of departure.
Keep it up and thanks for the good experience.

Both the manager, Peniel, & our driver /guide were extremely efficient, professional & friendly.
5/5

Peniel, the owner, always responded quickly to questions & suggestions, no matter what time of the day or night I emailed him. Anton, our driver / guide, could spot a leopard in a tree 50m away as its tail, resembling a branch hanging down, swished & curled!! He preferred to not follow other Safari vehicles, but to head in another direction where we were often the only vehicle enjoying a pride if Lions with cubs, or 2 male Lions chilling under a tree, or the 2 cheetah lying under a tree having their morning wash :). Alex, apply named our "stomach Dr" by Peniel, was amazing! 4 courses on the first night, but never too much (which I have heard happens on many safaris). We returned to camp one day for a late lunch & found pizza & chips as well as our tents packed up waiting next to all our luggage! Such a humble, hard working man :) Tarangarie & Serengeti are NPs with such an abundance of wildlife to be seen! Both NPs are a must in everyone's Safari planning. Asante Sana to the Lights On Africa team :)

This one of the best, authentic and varied safaris you can do, highly recommended!
5/5

We are in the safari business ourselves (Safarifrank.com) so we talk from a perspective of some extensive experience. The mobile safari of Natureways along the Zambezi is a fantastic and REAL wilderness experience. The groups and camps are small and intimate and the land and water guides, Andy and TK, are some of the best we have come across. Combine that with great hospitality, food and spectacular wildlife experiences and the scene is set for one the best adventure safaris that you can experience! Where else can you camp on the river under private canvas, canoe along the channels of the Zambezi, walk the flood plain and do game drives too?
Pretty spectacular. Thanks guys we had a blast!

All promises were respected
5/5

We enjoyed our 14-day safari with wecam safaris and our Tourguide Peter very much. Already from the first contact in January 2017 Mercy always took care of us and also the repeated change of the tourpans she always remained conservative and helpful. This continued after the arrival, where we were received in a friendly manner. Our Tourguide was always there for us and gave us spectacular highlights. All in all it was a great safari, which I would organize with wecam safaris at any time. Thanks to Mercy, Guide Peter and the whole team of wecam Safaris. We will definitely be back!

Greetings

7 days safari:Tarangire,Lake Manyara,Serengeti,Ngorongoro
5/5

I had a wonderful experience with the Foot Slopes team who kept me comfortable and satisfied.The communication via email prior the safari was excellent. Almost every time i sent a message to Foot Slopes I received a reply the same day.Upon arrival, pick-up at the airport was smooth and tour group was able to arrange for in-town transportation for us as we had a full day in Arusha before the start of our safari. The driver (Thomas:the best driver i know!)was professional and Footslopes arranged for a good price. I visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara..and i saw the big five.The safari vehicle was nice and comfortable with a pop-top to be able to take good pictures of the animals. This is a budget safari and I slept in a tent in the open fields.The chef was very good and served us some very good things to eat. I can definitely recommend their services to anyone who likes to deal with solid and professional companies
Thank you Foot Slopes Tours&Safaris!!!

The wildlife and bird watching was excellent in all of the parks we visited. Our guide was quite knowledgeable about animals and birds

A wonderfull, well organised trip with a very experienced guide
5/5

My friend and i made a three day safari to Queen Elisabeth National Park/Murchison Falls. The safari was perfectly organised!
The communication before the trip (fast answers to all questions...) and the service was great!!
Every minute of the safari was perfectly organised (pick up in Kampala, tour itself, breaks and meals...) and I think we had the best guide of Uganda! Twaha is very experienced and can answer all questions.

The Namibia Horse Safari Company team just does an excellent job.
5/5

I am a repeting guest rider with Namibia Horse Safari Company for many years now and they just do an excellent job. They are very experienced in organizing those safaris and they love and treat their horses respectively. The landscape is just stunning and so different from one place to the other.

Fantastic attention to detail and worked with us to create an amazing trip
5/5

From our first contact with Darren from Compass Odyssey it was obvious that he is passionate about what he does and is keen to ensure his clients get the most out of their trip. There was a lot of communication whilst sorting out details for our safari and his responses were always very prompt and informative. My husband and I were travelling with our youngest son (13) and my parents. Darren gave us lots of information about the accommodation options and we were impressed by the options that he recommended. Mortimer was our guide in Victoria Falls and was friendly and helpful. Victoria Falls was impressive and we managed to take it in from both the Zimbabwe and Zambian sides and from the air. We loved our time in Chobe at Garden Lodge - lovely property, great setting with hippos on the lawn at night and warthogs running around during the day. The staff at the lodge were very welcoming. John was our safari guide and we did 2 river safaris and 2 driving safaris - he was informative and good at tracking animals and gave us an amazing safari experience. Before we started our Compass Odyssey tour we were in Johannesburg and had money stolen from our room safe. Even though this part of our trip was not organised by Compass Odyssey Darren went above and beyond and tried to help us with regard to the theft. We would happily recommend Darren and Compass Odyssey to anybody.
