As great as expected
First, we've been happily surprised that all gone as expected. Driver was waiting for us at the ferry station. We had a great transport time with him as he appears to be a very nice and enjoyable guy. Meal on the road was also good. He tried to do his best to show us a variety of animals in Mikumi National Park and to teach us interesting facts about wild life. The hotel booked by Gecko for the night was a great and confortable moment for people beeing backpacking for days. The only cons was the meal on the way back which was kind of sandwiches not as fresh that it would need to be. In summary, I would recommend Gecko adventure.

Staff listened carefully to what we wanted and designed an itinerary that met all our requests.
Encompass Africa is the best travel company we have ever dealt with as they listened carefully, were prompt and excellent with all communication and designed an itinerary that covered all our requests and interests. Being experienced travellers themselves they know the places we wanted to visit well and consequently gave excellent and appropriate advice both verbally and written. They also have an office in Johannesburg with someone always ready to assist if required. We had reason to call their SA office and received immediate and willing assistance with a quick resolution to our query. The overall result was that, thanks to Encompass Africa, we had an amazing holiday experience and have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone planning a holiday to Africa.
Renewed Appreciation
I had written a review earlier but, having enjoyed a safari in Uganda with a company that did a very satisfying job, I thought I should note how World Tours & Safaris Tanzania was absolutely outstanding. A tight programme allowed us to see a lot in four days, with pacing at Lake Manyara and Serengeti and Ngorongoro well arranged. Food was excellent, and accommodation quite satisfactory for the budget rates we paid. Many thanks
We truly experienced a custom made journey and the agency is good at noticing specific details
In November 2013 my boyfriend and I traveled to Kenya to celebrate our holiday. We approached Malika Travel to organize our trip. Carlijn and James have a very personal approach and did their very best to make our trip memorable! They prepared our trip very well. From the beginning the contact was very smooth, even by telephone and e-mail. We could contact them anytime and received a prompt and accurate response. It is an excellent country and also the price / quality ratio was perfect. In comparison to other agencies Malika Travel offers a very good price! At first we were a week in a seaside resort in Diani Beach and after this we visited two safari parks, Masai Mara and Samburu National Park. With our driver Moses we went on safari and it was great fun! Malika Travel has chosen really great locations for us, where we were treated like VIPs! It is fantastic that both have so often been in Kenya and are really good with the locals. This is a good base to create such a trip!
we had excellent trip with this company, 6 days kili climb and 5 days cmping safari
Our Guide was speaking very good English, was very friendly and nolegible, but in Tanzania many people speaking Swahili but was ok for us.

Out of the world
It was the best vacation of my life. Right from landing at the airport, where we were received by David and briefed, to the journey to Lake Nokuru with our driver Zak. The beautiful safari in the park the next morning with the magnificent flamingoes. The journey to Masaimara camp was a bit tiresome but once there we were enthralled by the ambiance of the camp. We had a lot of fun the next two days and we managed to spot every member of the big five including the elusive leopard. Thanks for everything.

Trip of a lifetime
African Ubunti Safaris organised our trip to CapeTown, Johannesburg and the Simbavati Game Reserve. We were delighted with their organisation and their advice, which resulted in a trip of a lifetime for us. While the highlight was the wonderful Safari experience , we were also most impressed with the detailed planning which resulted in truly memorable stays in the cities. We quickly realised we could have every confidence in the travel arrangements put in place by African Ubantu Safaris and so could focus on the varied, fascinating itinerary at each stage of our trip.

Briliant
My girlfriend and I went to Tanzania late last year and we had an amazing trip all along. We went to all the great parks in Tanzania and at the peak; we visited Zanzibar to relax for some few days. Kenya walking survivors safaris did a great job and coordination with their Tanzania ground –handler.
When we visit East Africa again, we will definitely use the same company for our safari.
