Gerard was so friendly and kind. The tour was an amazing experienced where we got to see every single aspect of the safari and our guide went above and beyond to show and explain all aspects of the safari for us. The tour was extremely organised and food was excellent. The accommodation was incredible especially the suricata boma lodge.

Incredible Safari with Amazing Staff
We had the most incredible safari in Botswana and saw so much wildlife.Pilot and his team were fantastic and so attentive. Pilot was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, Elena was an excellent host -we really enjoyed chatting with her, and Pauline was a super cook producing amazing meals on an open fire. The safari vehicle was great and the tent and bed were very comfortable.
We also appreciated Martin's prompt and helpful answers prior to going away.
All in all a definite 5 star experience.

Extremely accommodating, made our experience incredible.
I would highly recommend Meru Slop Tours & Safaris for your Safari tour! Everything from housing to food was well planned out, even when we had time constraints with flights. There was not a single hiccup throughout the entire trip.
I also highly recommend our tour guide John. He was knowledgable and experienced, and we were able to see and understand animals that we wouldn't have captured otherwise without him. He was sweet and patient when it came to our questions as well. He made our experience a lot more personal.
Overall, it was an incredible choice.

Exceptional service and an unforgettable experience in Rwanda
We had an excellent experience with Golden Rwanda and would highly recommend them. From the very beginning, their team was extremely professional, responsive and easy to communicate with, which made the whole trip feel effortless.
A special mention goes to our guide, Taufique, who was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, attentive and genuinely passionate about Rwanda, making our time in Kigali much more meaningful. We particularly appreciated the excellent balance between discovering the country’s culture and history and enjoying the practical aspects of the trip.
Golden Rwanda also took care of all the logistics seamlessly, including coordinating with the hotel and managing the gorilla trekking permits, which made everything very smooth and stress-free.
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely choose Golden Rwanda again. Thank you especially to Taufique for making our time in Rwanda so memorable!

Great experience
We had a 4 day tour to Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara with Shaddy as our guide. The tour was amazing, we were able to see the big 5 and the ugly 5, as well as many other amazing animals. Shaddy was very nice to us, very thoughtful and provided good information about the wildlife and the Maasai culture.

Reliable and great custom planning
Brighton custom-built our 11-day itinerary day-by-day for Zimbabwe and Botswana, tailored specifically to our family with three teenagers. The result was a brilliantly organized, well-budgeted trip filled with varied, eye-opening experiences that captured the true natural beauty of both countries.
Gerry, who accompanied us the entire way, was wonderful: kind, attentive, and completely professional whenever we had to make a few schedule adjustments. One of those pivot moments led us to Elephant Haven in Maun, an elephant rehabilitation and release sanctuary. Getting to interact with these gentle giants was deeply moving and easily the most special surprise of the trip.
Elephants followed us everywhere: right at breakfast outside our lodge in Hwange, under the starlit skies at Elephant Sands, watching mothers guide their little ones across the Chobe waters, and even having them politely block our path on the roads more than once.
Moments like these—made possible by Brighton and his team—will stay etched in our family's memory forever.
We wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone looking for authentic, soul-stirring wildlife and nature journeys off the beaten path.

Well organised
Amazing experience.
Out guide Joseph was well informed , punctual , patient and made great sightings happen for us.
Highly recommended.
(Small suggestion- kindly make the last row a 2 seater and not a 3 seater as no one would like to be squeezed in the middle for a 5 day tour )

Wonderful experience at Masai Mara
Our tour with Safari Soles at Masai Mara went well. Samuel (Sammy) was a wonderful driver and made our game drive an unforgettable experience. We nanaged to see 4 out of the Big 5, missing out on the rhino as we didn't make it in time during the morning. Nonetheless, Sammy did his very best to let us see as much as we could during the full day game drive including catching a sleeping cheetah and wildebeest crossing the river.
The hotel La Maison Rovale was decent with amazing views. I accidently left a set of headphones at the hotel and Vanessa our tour planner, helped arrange for its delivery back to Nairobi without much hassle. Overall, we had a good experience and would recommend.
