Everyday was Absolutely Awesome!
Ute Sonnenberg from Roho Ya Chui is amazing! Each and every day of our trip was awesome.
The airport pickups/transfers were on time, courteous, and professional.
The accommodations were in prime locations, and were absolutely gorgeous with great staff.
The activities that she helped us plan were incredible. Each of our activities was booked with a top-notch operator. Our expectations were blown away.
If you're thinking of going on a safari to Africa, want to explore Cape Town, or have always wanted to visit Victoria Falls - do yourself a favor and book it through Ute Sonnenberg at Roho Ya Chui.
This trip couldn't have gone smoother.
We couldn't be happier.
Seriously... stop reading this, and book your trip!
Africa Adventure Safaris was the perfect choice for the visiting the Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda
I contacted Africa Adventure Safaris (DBA Rwanda Gorilla Tour) and two other more familiar tour companies to see what type of tours were available to see the gorillas in Rwanda and what the cost would be. Africa Adventure was the most flexible and was also less expensive than the other 2 companies. I eventually booked a 4 day 3 night tour with them and requested that they purchase a 2 day pass for me to go on gorilla trek. Because i was traveling alone i was somewhat concerned about whether a guide would actually show up at the Kigali, Rwanda airport to meet me and what it would be like depending on a complete stranger for 4 days. There was no need for concern. Enos was waiting for me when i arrived and made me immediately comfortable. By the end of the trip i was relying totally on him. He kept track of my camera, my backpack and sometimes even my passport. It was like traveling with a friend. He was always prompt to pick me up for the gorilla treks and where ever else we were going.It was nice not being with a group. The staff at my hotel was very friendly and were always quick to help out if something was needed. There were a wide variety of menu choices and i enjoyed everything i tried. After talking to other people that i met on the trek i think i would have preferred staying at a Lodge rather than a hotel but i spent very little actually hanging around at the hotel so it really didn't make a big difference - plus i know that the Lodges cost more.
The entire trip was smooth and relaxed. Other than the scheduled treks it was up to me to decide how i wanted to spend my free time and Enos was always there to accompany me. I recommend them and in fact have already given their information to two people who are interested in seeing the gorillas.

Wat we wanted : professional and customer oriented
We were a group of 6 in the jeep : two parents (in lodges) and our son, together with 3 friends of him (in tents). We experienced Sunny Safaris as a 100% professional and customer oriented agency : in spite of the two different formula's in one jeep, everything went smoothly and as planned (prepayment, paper work, logistics, payments on site etc). Also the agency contacted us during the safari to know how things were going (highly appreciated) : we confirmed that our driver (Peter) and cook (Charly) were arranging a fantastic safari in Lake Manyara,Seregenti,Ngorongoro and Tarangire. Suggestion : replace the Tarangire (last) day by an extra day in Serengeti. When going back we will chose Sunny Safaris again.

Go 2 Africa was able to match the parks and time with a wonderful safari with Gamewatchers of Kenya.
I was a bit apprehensive about doing a safari alone, but Gamewatchers is a wonderful company who tailored my experience to my interests. The experience was more than expected and everything went smoothly. I am so glad that I went, it was the trip of a lifetime!

Best safari ever!
We have done som safaris, maybe 14-15 all together, and this was one of the best ever! Matoke did a fantastic job from the very first contact with Carolien who guided us towards a very nice plan and rute. And gave us very honest answers for all our questions.
Then it was Emmanuel!! The most important person for us during our safari week. He is the best guide we have ever hade! So full of knowledge, experience and such a nice guy to spend allt this hours tigether with. And he drove very safely. Important... We highly recommend Matoke tours and we absolutely recommend Emmanuel!!

A complete service
I sent an e-mail to Falcon Safaris outlining my requirements & within a day they had confirmed all my requests. The transfers, activities (especially the White Water rafting from Bundu) were exceptional.
It was so easy & they contributed to an exceptional holiday.

Unforgettable. Great guides and great accommodations.
The guides - William and Jerrod - are to be singled out as amazing. Kili is not an easy hike. It is important to have someone set your pace and make the experience fun. William was awesome. Pole ! Pole! And no one can match the skills of Jerrod (Gerald?) as he with a hawk's eye and the knowledge of wildlife entertained, identified and taught about nature. Absolutely undescribable. especially as I download and view 1500 photos. The places in Zanzibar were out of his world. And Ras Nungwi and the hut I stayed in set the bar for the best hospitality and comfort I can remember. Not to mention the sashimi.
To die for. As well as snorkeling with the dolphins.

Karibu World did an outstanding job organizing our safari...we loved it.
Tasneem Manwar at Karibu did an outstanding job helping us organize our safari and trip to Zanzibar. All our transport details went exactly as planned which helped reduce the stress of a trip of this type. Our driver/guide for Bushbuck Safaris did an outstanding job driving our vehicle, providing us information about the countryside and animals and always being punctual. Thanks so much for helping our safari being such as success.

Makasa organised an unforgettable private safari for us
After searching for safari companies at the internet, we have chosen Makasa for the following reasons : 1. After a first contact via mail, we got immediately a 'good feeling' - 2. The owner (Selma) understood what we wanted and after some iterations, we got the ideal itinerary for us - 3. We could communicate in our language (dutch) - 4. The price was ok
The contract and related info was very clear.
We arrived in Zanzibar and via a domectic flight we flew to Kilimanjaro where our safari started. We did a coffee tour in Moshi, stayed a night in a masaai village and visited folowing parks : Tarangire (2d), Lake Manyara (1d) , Ngorongoro (1d) and Serengeti (3d). When our safari started, Selma and her husband came to our lodge in Moshi and presented our guide : Francis. He knew a lot about the animals and made us see the big 5 (rinos in Ngorongoro but far away). In fact he made sure that we had an unforgettable safari. He even asked another lodge/tent with better view for us in Maramboi tented camp where we stayed 2 nights.
The jeep was ok and we were provided water during the game drives. When we used lunch boxes, Francis made sure he got coffee for us.
After the safari we had a beach holiday in Zanzibar.
All the lodges and hotels we stayed in, were ok.
To resume, Makasa arranged all in a professional way : excellent guide, lodges, hotels and domestic flights. They know the country and understand how a safari should be.
We would certainly chose Makasa again.
