An overwhelming Christmas- adventure
5/5

We had the best time of our life with Wild Planet Safari christmas 2014
We went on a 11 days tour from J.burg-Hazywiew- Merloth-Swaziland-St. Lucia- Durban- J.burg. And would do it all again tomorrow without any hesitation.
The knowlegde of both Ryan and Thale made our trip complete, and with the patience for our four children (5,8,9,10) it was absolutely phenomenal.
Travelling with Wild Planet Safari is highly recomendable, and you will get the best service, food and experiences of 'em all!:)

Excellent Company, First Class Service, Affordable Price
5/5

Macho Halisi rescued us after a nightmare experience with Overseas Adventure Travel and Ranger Safaris. The Kudu Lodge accommodations were excellent and the food delicious. Our safari driver/guide was knowledgeable, very competent, respectful of the client, environmentally sensitive and unwavering in his consideration of the well being of the wildlife unlike many other safari companies that we encountered. In 6 days on safari we saw a greater range of animals, including the big 5. than we saw on the previous 26 days of safari with OAT. The company is owned by Tanzanians and staffed by Tanzanians and it shows in their professionalism and their love of their country. I would not hesitate to recommend Macho Halisi to family, friends or any traveller looking for the highest quality at an affordable price. In fact my parents are planning to use this company for an adventure later this year. Find out who owns the safari company before you book. Book only with a locally owned company, you will not regret your decision. Thanks Again

An excellent experience!
5/5

Chris from Indigo Safaris was very prompt in returning emails and calls from us prior to booking on the trip despite him being all over the globe at the time! We were very happy with our decision to book 3 trips through him for Papua New Guinea. The Goroka Show was well organized with smooth transfers. The accommodation couldn't have been better as we were next to the venue and he was always happy to organize transportation into town or to eat out for those who weren't eating at the accommodation. He also set us up with a week diving in at the Walindi resort in New Britain which is an absolutely amazing facility we would highly recommend. Finally, our trip to the Sepik river, was certainly memorable. Although remote, we were well taken care of with freshly cooked meals and bedding and mosquito nets each night despite being in the middle of no where! We met some amazing people and were amazed at the artwork and spirit houses we were able to see along the way. I would happily go on another trip with Indigo Safaris as it was a great experience!

Definitely book your safari with Odirile!
5/5

Odirile is fantastic! Everything about our trip with them was great, from the planning stage right until they dropped us at our accommodation back in Maun. During booking, communications were prompt and professional and they allowed lots of flexibility to fit around our schedule. The safari itself was fantastic! BK, Parks and Onx are warm and kind, always smiling and appearing to love what they do. The food was excellent - including freshly baked bread, muffins and other treats baked over the campfire! Equipment was in good condition and comfortable. BK is probably the best driver we know - skillfully driving the very challenging roads while at the same time spotting everything from tiny birds to well camouflaged lions, leopards, etc.

I thought this would be a once in a lifetime experience - but I'm definitely coming back.
5/5

The two most common catch phrases on our safari were "Wow, look at that!" and "Oh, aren't they cute". It was a truly wonderful experience and I was gob smacked at how many animals we saw and how close we were to them. Apart from a few minor issues that were easily rectified, African Ubuntu Safaris' organisation of our trip was very good. Cuan McLaren was very knowledgable, friendly and helpful. The tour guides/drivers, accommodation and food in both Kenya and Tanzania were excellent. January was a good time to travel - plenty of animals and the country side very green. The most safari trucks we saw in one area was 18 - (Serengeti - where we saw two cheetahs and a pride of 19 lions) but the guides said there can be up to 50 safari trucks in the high season. I would highly recommend African Ubuntu Safaris.

All was perfect!
5/5

I had safari in Kenya, Masai Mara with Big Time Safaris in the November 2014. It was just perfect!
I brought home memories for the rest of my life, great pictures and new plans to go again!
Big Time Safaris did their job in a perfect way, all was safe and smooth. I was comunicating a lot before arriving to Kenya with Martha, she was always friendly and ready to give advice and answer one of questions, that i had really a lot, cause was travelling to Kenya alone. It was all safe there. They met me from the airport when i arrived to Kenya at 3 in the night, took me to the hotel and than picked me up in the morning to go to safari.
We had very nice and professional driver during safari-Stanley. He knew all about animals and was trying to do his best to show us the wild life of african savana, so we could also make good pictures. Special thanks to Stanley, my 3 days at Masai Mara were really one of the best days of my life!
The camp itself was good, staff there polite and friendly. Food was also good, especially dinners. Tents were big enough, clean and had all i needed inside. I was alone and had one tent for me only. Electricity is during the morning and evening only. If i am not misstaken 5-7 and 20-22. Or smth like this. When we were there was no wifi. But you dont really need it there, you can just enjoy the nature and that few days you have there.
Big Time Safaris were helping me till the day i left Kenya. After safari i was flying to Mombasa, they took me to airport and after Mombasa picked me up from airport to také me to the hotel, where i slept before flying home.
Now i am planning new safari in Kenya and Tanzania, for one week. And of course i will book it with Big Time Safaris. Also i m giving them good feedback and advise it to ppl who are thinking of visiting Africa for safari.
Thanks again guys and hope to see you soon again!

More than perfect safari with Jackson and EasyTravel
5/5

As I decided to organize myself a 3-day safari in North Tanzania in February 2015 (Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Manyara), I contacted 10 companies per mail. All of them responded quite fast, but EasyTravel offered me the best program and price. The correspondance with them was always very friendly, personal, clear and fast. Although I was a bit anxious after having made the full payment in advance, I was relieved that everything went perfectly well, the minute we went out of the airport on arrival in Tanzania (our first time in this country). We spent 3 nights in very nice lodges, which were recommanded by EasyTravel. Now the most important thing : our driver-guide Jackson! Travelling with him was just perfect : safe driving, sometimes not too fast to enjoy the landscape, sometimes fast to spot impressive animals. He gave us many informations about the animals and the country (I didn't expect to learn so many things!!), but he didn't talk all the time neither, that was perfect for us. Thanks to his patience and very acute and trained eyesight, we saw all the animals we wanted to see and many more... He was very adaptive and agreed to pick us up very early in the morning. All in all, I couldn't recommand more EasyTravel and Jackson for a perfect safari!
