Fabulous trip to Rwanda
The Safari Partners were recommended to us by some friends who travelled with them in Kenya, Tanzania and Rwanda. From the beginning, Chris was super helpful, very knowledgeable and really helped us to plan our trip. From the moment we arrived and were met at the airport, we had a fantastic experience. Everything was smooth, and our driver/guide, Duncan, was incredible! He made sure that we had an amazing experience in the parc, and we saw two gorilla families. Both experiences were awesome, the hotel was great and Duncan made sure that we had great trek experiences. We also enjoyed our time in Kigali, where Duncan took care of us as well. Chris was really helpful too and I would recommend Safari Partners to anyone.

A really tailor made safari holiday with outstanding services and places to stay
Tailor Made Safari's really has succeeded in delivering us an outstanding holiday. It all started on the Holiday Fair in January 2014 in The Netherlands were they had a very well organized stand. On basis of our wishes Tailor Made Safari's worked out very quickly a very well balanced trip to make in the Kwazulu Natal province of South Africa. One week before leaving the Netherlands we received a mobile telephone for emergencies, a navigation device and a fotobook with description and gps locations of places to stay and places we were going to visit. All pre-prepared for our trip to make by ourselves in South Africa. This made it posible to start directly our trip in a very relaxed way, directly after arrival at the airport. The rented car, the places to stay overnight and the host services were of a very good quality and the people we met were very friendly. With the mobile telephone we had received we kept sms contact with Tailor Made Safari's. They always reacted promptly and this gave us a very save and secure feeling. Tailor Made Safari's made it possible that we were able to make this trip on our own without their help, just as they had told us.
We thank all the teammembers of Tailor Made Safaries for this unforgetable trip. Lambik (53), Sandra (52), Tanja (20) and Daan (18)

David, you make the difference
Thank again David for the arrangements you prepared for me. Ten days on safari, 3 in Tanzania and 7 in Kenya. I had great time, all was according to the agreements and I had the opportunity to enjoy game safaris, wonderful landscapes and nice people. David helped me beyond the safari, since the first moment I contacted with him he helped me for the preparation of my trip (I have been around alone in East Africa for 40 days), like in the reservation of bus trips and domestic flights. He also hosted me at their office in Nairobi any time I needed. Thank you again brother!!!!!

Fantastic Trip
We recently returned from our 14 day Safari/Zanzibar holiday and had an absolute wonderful time. We really appreciated the fact that Makasa customized our itinerary and always promptly answered any questions regarding our trip ahead of time. Thank you again, Selma!
We always felt very comfortable and well taken care of. The accommodations and meals exceeded our expectations. It's amazing what these places can offer you in the middle of the African bush!
Our driver, Ben, was a super friendly guy with knowledge and patience, and always put us in position for the best pictures. Ben always made sure we had everything we needed and kept us up to speed on when and where we were meeting. The staff at every accommodation was so friendly and helpful.
We saw every animal we had hoped to see and better yet, a lot of action among the animals. Watching lions hunt, antelope fighting, baby elephants nursing, it all felt a bit like we were a part of National Geographic! Such an unforgettable experience.
Thank you Selma and Ngomi.
King regards,

Fantastic Moremi tour
Deciding to take a guided safari in Moremi, as it sounded a more intimate safari than some other options, on Unlimited Tours’ advice we booked the overnight ‘participation’ safari rather than a one day safari. We are so glad we took the advice.
We were quite late in booking but Unlimited were very responsive and put together all the arrangements for the safari at very short notice.
We camped at the Khwai campsite and the tent and other equipment provided were all excellent. Moses, our guide, chose a camping plot by the river and an excellent spot it was, especially when we were visited by elephants going down to the river as we prepared our evening meal. Our ‘participation’, help in erecting the tents, shower etc, and preparing food, rather than feeling like a chore increased our feeling of involvement in the safari.
Moses was extremely personable and easy going making the safari very comfortable. Importantly he knows his job as a guide, being most knowledgeable and informative and knowing where to look for wildlife. He always had us in the best position to see the animals when they moved.
We were fortunate to see so many animals and birds at very close quarters. We had said to Moses that we would most like to see some predators and he duly delivered; the highlights being a leopard and her cub and 2 male lions just metres from our vehicle.
Overall a great experience with Unlimited Tours, we’d use them again and recommend them.

Exceptional service! This company goes the extra mile!
I would not hesitate to recommend TTC to anyone considering a safari or Kilimanjaro trek in Tanzania. I recently trekked up Kilimanjaro with TTC and their equipment is far superior to other local companies in particular their waterproof luggage bags, comfortable dining tent and portable commode toilet. Their staff were very professional and knowledgeable always going the extra mile to help us when we were tired; such as helping to pack our bags; washing dirty clothes, blowing up mattresses and bringing extra drinks and snacks up the mountain for us. On the summit night all the guides were very attentive to each individual on trek and the local doctor didn't miss a thing - subsequently we all achieved the summit. The tour went without a single hitch and all the small extras were really appreciated. Thank you - we will be using your services again!

Kilimanjaro trek lemosho route
I would highly recommend Tanzania Travel Company to anyone wanting to successfully get to the summit of Kilimanjaro. We were a group of people with mixed altitude experience. We found the journey exhilarating and the sense of achievement at getting up to the summit is immeasurable! We were supported by a group of experienced guides, chefs, doctor and porters. Their combined efforts made our journey to the roof of Africa an unforgettable experience. A big thank you to Ben, AJ, Doc, Jackson and Suleiman for all your help along the way!

The VIP safari experience
We have just finished a week safari organized with Galloping and it was the best holiday ever.
I decided to book through this company based on the great reviews they have on trip advisor and I must say that the service we got was even above what you can expect reading the reviews.
Both the efficiency of Walter organizing the safari and the competence of our guide Ayubu were second to none.
The organization was very smooth, I started organizing the trip less than one month in advance, but this was absolutely no problem for Walter. We had many email exchanges and he came up with a tailor made safari perfect for us. We stayed in top end lodges and we were very satisfied with his choice.
Walter will answer your emails within a couple of hours and always very precisely.
Payment of the deposit was also no issue at all. As soon as they get the money they will issue a payment receipt for you. I must say everything was handled extremely professionally.
When we arrived there was Ayubu our guide waiting for us at the airport.
We spent one week on the safari with him and he is an amazing guide, he spotted plenty of animals we would never have seen ourselves and he always knew the answer to all our questions! GPS is his fingerprint and animals must be on the map as we'll ;)
We had constantly the impression of having a VIP safari and be much better served than others, many times we were the first ones to see animals and later there would be other vehicles joining.
And last but not least we truly enjoyed his company during the week.
Ayubu is a very good driver and the vehicle used is very comfortable for the safari. I have some back problem but didn't have any issues on the bumpy roads!
There is even a fridge in the vehicle to keep your drinks cold and if you run out of battery you can charge your device while on the road.
If one day I would be back for a safari I'll definitely organize it with Galloping again.
