Highly professional organisation who know their product exceptionally well .
My partner and I recently travelled to the Okavango Delta, this being my 11th tour booked through eXplore Plus, and they never disappoint. We feel like Rika, Mariska and their team are family who have our personal interests at heart. The lodges they use, the staff in those lodges and the guides they use are excellent . To my mind they are the "go to" agents to use for travel in Africa for service and value for money.

Wilson
Our animal safari experience was absolutely incredible, largely thanks to our amazing tour guide, Wilson! From the moment we set off, his passion for wildlife and the environment was admirable
. Wilson's knowledge of the animals, their habitats, and behaviors was outstanding, and he shared fascinating insights throughout the tour.
What really set Wilson apart was not only his expertise but also his fantastic sense of humor. He kept us entertained with funny stories and jokes throughout the day, making the experience even more enjoyable. Beyond that, Wilson has a remarkable ability to connect with people and create special relationships. He made each of us feel valued and engaged, fostering a sense of camaraderie within the group. Wilson has a unique ability to create a sense of community, and by the end of the safari, we felt like one big family, sharing laughter and unforgettable moments together.
Thanks to Wilson, we saw so many amazing animals up close and learned a great deal about the local ecosystem. I highly recommend Wilson to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari adventure. We absolutely loved Wilson and hope to see him again!

Unforgettable Honeymoon Safari
We had an amazing time on our honeymoon. Our 8-night safari was unforgettable from start to finish.
Rajab was incredible throughout the planning process and an outstanding guide during the trip. Patrick, our driver, was also fantastic; professional, attentive, and a pleasure to spend time with.
Everything was seamless and exactly what we hoped our honeymoon experience would be.
We saw far more than we ever expected too thanks to their expertise in spotting animals; including animals we didn’t even know existed or had never truly appreciated until seeing them up close in the wild.
We would 100% recommend So Pai, Rajab, and the entire team. It was a truly memorable experience, and we’ll definitely be dreaming about our next trip for a long time. Thank you again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Incredible Tanzania Safari – Safari Soles, Joachim, Frank & Dickson Were Outstanding
Our safari with Safari Soles was truly one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had.
My first interaction was with Joachim. I reached out for a quote and received a response within just a few hours. After a series of back-and-forth questions, Joachim put together a detailed itinerary for us to review. We ended up making several changes to the length of our stay, the dates, and some of the activities we wanted to include, and throughout the entire process Joachim was professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful. My experience working with him was easily a 10/10.
Once we agreed on the details, payment was simple. They do charge a 3.5% credit card fee, so if you’re planning to pay entirely by card, keep that in mind. The quote was provided as both a neatly written PDF and an online version, and all of the hotels were clearly listed so we could research and review them before confirming.
When we arrived in Tanzania, we were greeted by Frank, who immediately made us feel welcome. He was friendly, helpful, and hilarious. The next day we explored the town of Arusha with him. Frank took us to a local market, brought us to a delicious local lunch (only $30 USD for five people!), and gave us a general sightseeing tour of the city. It was a fantastic day and a great introduction to Tanzania.
The following day we met our safari guide, Dickson—and I truly cannot say enough about this man. He was a wealth of knowledge, experience, and hospitality. His cheerful response of “Yes please?!” every time someone said his name before asking a question will always be one of my favorite memories from the trip. Whether he was sharing fascinating facts about animals, telling stories from past safaris, preparing our picnic lunches, or helping with our bags, Dickson represented the absolute highest level of professionalism and care.
Over the next six days we traveled through Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti, Lake Eyasi, and many other incredible places. We saw everything you could imagine: leopards, lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, antelope, dik-diks, gazelles, rhinos, hippos, zebras, hyenas, eagles, vultures, and so much more. Dickson always positioned us perfectly to see animals in their natural environment.
All of the hotels Safari Soles selected for us were excellent. Our daily lunches were great, and Dickson was always insisting on serving us. The beer and wine in the vehicle were cold and plentiful, and there was always plenty of fresh water and soft drinks available. We brought along our own snacks for the long drives but found we rarely ate them—there was simply too much excitement.
Aside from the wildlife, one of the biggest highlights of the trip was visiting local tribes. We spent time with the Maasai, the Hadzabe, and the Datoga tribes, learning about their cultures and traditions. It was a truly eye-opening experience.
A few of my biggest takeaways:
• Take advantage of all the cultural experiences you can. Visiting the tribes might feel intimidating at first, but it’s incredibly worthwhile.
• The night game drive is unforgettable.
• The hot air balloon over the Serengeti is amazing—a spectacular bird’s-eye view of the landscape. The staff were wonderful and the meal afterward was one of the best we had on the trip. You also receive a beautiful certificate afterward.
• Be prepared for long days of driving on rough roads.
• Bring charging adapters.
• Bring a good pair of binoculars (Safari Soles had great ones in the vehicle, but many other companies we saw did not).
• If you’re visiting during the rainy season, bring multiple pairs of shoes.
Overall, this trip was easily one of my all-time favorites. Safari Soles, Frank, Joachim, Lawrence, and especially Dickson made the experience absolutely perfect. They truly went above and beyond—at one point they literally gave us the shirts off their backs when we needed them.
If you’re considering a safari, don’t waste time comparing companies. Safari Soles is the one to choose.

Perfect safari experience
We loved everything about our five - day safari with Twalib and Joachim!! Both of them had wide knowledge about the different animals and parks, which we got to know throughout the different game drives.
Communication and organization with Ally beforehand was very easy and service was always on time. We did Tarangire national park on day one, then drove up to Serengeti national park for day 2 and 3. After that we drove to Ngorongoro crater, where we experienced our fourth day of the safari. On the last day we drove to Manyara national park, from where we headed home after half a day of safari.
There was five of us in the car and we all loved it and 100% would do it again!!

Brenda can arrange the tour like what you want.
We asked for a natural place to stay that wasn’t overly polished but had delicious food, and the lodge they recommended was absolutely perfect for what we wanted. There are only ten cottages, so it felt very private. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the meals were full of vegetables from the organic farm on the property.
For the tour as well, once we shared our schedule and preferences, they arranged everything so it wouldn’t be too hectic. Our guide was also sincere and a wonderful person.

The Perfect Amboseli Safari
I had an incredible experience with Eddie during my trip to Amboseli National Park. From the moment I arrived, everything was handled smoothly; the airport pickup was seamless and right away I felt like I was in great hands. Eddie is extremely accommodating, friendly, and genuinely cares about making sure you have the best experience possible. The game drives were excellent. His knowledge of the local area and wildlife made a huge difference, and he always seemed to know the best places to go. Thanks to him, we saw amazing wildlife and had unforgettable views of Kilimanjaro.
What stood out the most is how comfortable he made the entire trip feel. By the end of the trip he felt more like a brother in Kenya that I know I can trust and count on.
If you're looking for a safari guide in Kenya, look no further. WILDSASA Adventures will make sure your trip is worth every dollar and leave you with unforgettable memories.
