professional, reliable, and efficient
We were thrilled to see all of the Big Five in Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. It exceeded our expectations and made the trip truly unforgettable.
Our guide was knowledgeable, funny, and created a great atmosphere throughout the safari. The chef prepared delicious meals every day, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
From the very beginning, Emmanuel from Crater Explorer Tours responded quickly to all our inquiries, making the booking process smooth and stress-free. He was also very flexible with changes to our plans, which we greatly appreciated.
The entire team was professional, reliable, and friendly. We highly recommend Crater Explorer Tours to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania.

Noah was amazing, he went over and beyond to make sure we saw all the animals. He was very friendly and professional. I wish he could be my tour guide on all tours.

Beautifully organized safari!
I just finished an amazing 5-day solo safari through Masai Mara, Naivasha, and Amboseli.
The entire trip was seamless, fast-paced, and beautifully organized. As a solo traveler, I felt completely safe and well taken care of from start to finish. Seeing the incredible wildlife in the Mara, the beautiful waters of Naivasha, and the massive elephant herds in Amboseli was unforgettable.
Thank you, Ethno Kenia Adventure, for a perfect experience!

Great communications, excellent service, great value
We worked with Kelvin for our booking. He was very responsive and communicative. We had lots of special requests, and he was able to accomodate all of them without raising the prices by a lot. Unlike some other operators, the quotes went up significantly with the custom requests. He made recommadations for lodging when we didn't have one in mind, and they all turned out to be great. Our guide was Emanuel, who was so pleasant and wonderful. He has 11 years of experience and has the eyes of an eagle. He can spot the tiniest birds while driving. He was an incredible driver as well. The roads can be extremely bumpy and muddy, but he did his best to make us feel comfortable and leave his car clean. We had simple but delicious lunch every day. Overall, we were very happy with Goldfinch and thought the value for money was excellent. Would highly recommend!

A Life-changing Experience! 🇨🇦🇹🇿
Wow. What a life-changing trip!
First off - if you ever book with Safari Soles you are in great hands. Happiness helped arrange our custom itinerary, so that we could tackle all we wanted to for our 2 week honeymoon in Africa.
Next, we met our driver/guide, Raymond, who is truly one of a kind. From his great taste in music for the long car rides, to his unwavering commitment to making sure you achieve everything you want to on your safari, it truly does not get any better. From Day 1 we felt so comfortable and knew we made a friend for life.
We started off at Tarangire National Park where we had an amazing day driving around and seeing all of the wildlife the park has to offer. The next days, we made our way through by the Serengeti, where we stayed at 5-star accommodations (truly) and were treated incredibly by all of the staff. We ended off at the N'gorongoro Crater where we achieved our goal of seeing the Big 5 and MORE!
Everywhere we went was very clean, very accommodating, and went above our expectations.
Side note - if you're a picky eater like me, do not fret as there is a good selection of food for every meal, and the staff are more than willing to accommodate should you not like the menu set out.
This truly was a life-changing trip, and we can not say enough good things about all that were involved in the planning of our perfect honeymoon.
Thank you to Happiness, Innocent and Raymond for leaving a lasting impact on our lives with this trip of a lifetime!
Asante!

21-day Zambia | Namibia | Botswana
Greetings!
My son and I recently completed the 21-Day Namibia & Botswana tour, departing Livingstone, Zambia on the 10th of May, 2026. I am responding to the “Client Tour Report” in narrative form..
I did not book through an agent. I found Sunway Safaris, however, through safaribookings.com. I owned a (photography) safari company in Tanzania in the past, and my company was listed with safaribookings.com. I trusted, then, the vetting done by the site for companies offering available tours.
I chose this particular itinerary because I was looking for a relatively longer experience, and Namibia and Botswana have called me for a long time. The tour was physically strenuous (early morning packing up and taking down tents, long days, and tight itinerary), but I knew what to expect. That said, the tour was nothing short of AMAZING!
The equipment was excellent. The tents, mattresses, cooking utensils and cutlery were exactly what was needed; quite frankly, I found the mattresses to be more comfortable than some of the beds we slept in during the trip!
The truck, too, was perfect for such an excursion. Everything had its place, and being “Ms Organized Universe” – I loved it! Our guides insisted on the proper and intended organization and (usually) were the ones to pull out specific foods, etc., in order to maintain said organization. The truck seemed to be very well maintained, and Cloud Tsuma saw to it that it remained that way throughout the journey. Having significant experience driving on African roads, I was very impressed that there were NO breakdowns or incidents involving the mechanics of the truck (or otherwise).
Accommodations in guest houses in Swakopmund and Windhoek and even the campsite in Maun were excellent and the timing of restaurant meals, hot showers, and a break from the daily routine were welcome and very much appreciated!
Our guides (Farai Bikausaru and Cloud Tsuma) are the BEST! A conversation at dinner one evening included the difference between “knowledge” and “intelligence” - a distinction that I consider important. Maybe the most motivating factor in my travel is the opportunity to have intelligent conversations with people from all over the world. I found both Farai AND Cloud to be both highly intelligent AND VERY well-informed – (not to mention: professional). These two men worked together like a well-oiled machine. I could go on and on but suffice it to say: my standards are very high – and they were well met by this guiding team!
My son has a diagnosis of schizophrenia and autism. He is very high-functioning, but this trip challenged him in ways that didn’t affect the rest of the group in the same way. Farai and Cloud went out of their way to meet both my son’s and my dietary needs (gluten-free), to stop for ‘bushy-bushy’ when my son’s medications demanding more frequent stops, to accept his need to go to bed right after dinner, etc., etc. – all without asking questions. Their patience and consistent guidance and instruction resulted in my son’s feeling SAFE – and I watched him blossom! I am incredibly grateful to these two GOOD men.
I am thoroughly impressed with Sunway Safaris. Quite honestly, I have NO complaints or even recommendations for improvement. I certainly plan to book with you guys again and will also be recommending you to friends and family.
Thank you for everything and – again – especially to Farai and Cloud!
Sincerely,
~ Kathy R and Eric R

Reliable, Transparent, Trustworthy and Seamless execution
Our experience with Morning Star has been amazing throughout. We have enquired with a few tour operators for a private safari and decided to go ahead with Morning Star because of their transparency. Their quote had a clear breakup of the costs which made it easy for us to finalise the itinerary.
Doreen was our go-to-person right from the very start. She was very patient in answering our queries and put together a great itinerary for us. She customised it whenever we needed any changes. Her suggestions and inputs were quite good. She is quite organised and was continuously checking on us every night of the trip asking how we enjoyed that day.
Special mention to James who was our tour guide. He was like the guardian during our 5-day trip. He is kind and funny. I needed a SIM card but they were accepting only a local id. James helped us get the sim by registering the sim on his name. He has superb knowledge about the safari and the region in general. We had some nice conversations on various topics. He is quite punctual and was always ready to leave on time. He has a good taste in music and was our in-house DJ during our long drives.
The accommodation options suggested were quite comfortable and the properties we finalised turned out to be quite good. It was nice of Doreen to get us an upgrade of the property at Masai Mara.
Overall it has been a pleasant experience for us with Morning Star and we truly recommend their services.

Amazing experience in Tanzania with Kagumbu & Toby
An amazing safari, with perfect organization considering both the itinerary and the accommodation. A special mention goes to Kagumbu, our local guide; not only does he speak perfect Italian, but he is also extremely knowledgeable and always able to answer any questions about the wildlife and local culture. We were also accompanied by Toby, our tireless driver, throughout the entire trip.
