Excellent experience and very good Safari. Aaron was amazing.
5/5

Great experience with them. Good hotels, Aaron was an excellent driver and overall timing was good.

We did Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli and Diani Beach with them. 8 days.

Areas for improvement: Better direct contact between Aanika Karibu safaris and the customer. Sometimes I had to contact them to ask who’s picking up or at what time. Other than that, it was great experience - we really enjoyed.

Amazing and well planned!
5/5

I had the most amazing experience with hooves of Africa. The safari was perfectly organized. I had the opportunity to see the big five animals and MORE!
A big thanks to my guide (Elton) that really put it an effort to drive me around to make sure I didn't miss anything!
I stayed in great lodges, there was a nice pool and good food!

10/10 stars to hooves of Africa and Elton!
Thank you

Excellent!
5/5

We had an unforgettable 2-week trip through Kruger, KwaZulu-Natal, Eswatini, and Lesotho thanks to Go Self-Drive Tours. From the very start, communication was clear and professional, and every detail was perfectly organized for us. All we had to do was pick up the car and set off.

Special thanks to Sadi, who guided us through the planning process with great professionalism and care. The itinerary was well thought out, with excellent routes, memorable stops, and wonderful hotels throughout.

For anyone not familiar with South Africa, I can’t recommend Go Self-Drive Tours highly enough — they make travel stress-free and ensure you see the very best of this beautiful region. This is the third time we have used them and we are already looking forward to planning our next trip.

The agency cheats on clients, I reported to police
1/5

I paid fir 11 days Kenya +Tanzania safary. Arriving in Tanzania, I realized, that hotel and safary were not booked. No hotel, no guide, no safari. Tge hitel told that I'm not tge firs victim of this agency. I returned to the border Namanga and reported to police. The agency didn't responded at all. Finally Kelvin send me this message.
Dear Olga,

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you are currently experiencing in Arusha. Please allow me to clarify the situation.

We had indeed arranged and paid for your Tanzania safari; however, we have unfortunately become victims of a cybercrime-related funds fraud that has disrupted the payment process on the ground. This unforeseen situation has interfered with the operator receiving the funds as scheduled.

To ensure your trip continues smoothly and without further delays, I kindly request that you make payment directly for the Tanzania safari on your side. Please be assured that we will process a full refund to you within 7 working days once our accounts are settled.

We deeply regret this unfortunate occurrence and take full responsibility for resolving it. Your experience and trust mean everything to us, and we are doing everything possible to ensure the rest of your safari remains memorable.

Please let me know once you have made the arrangements, so that I can personally monitor the refund process and keep you updated step by step.

With deepest apologies and appreciation for your understanding,

Kelvin,
CEO,
Beast Spoor Safaris
THIS CHEATERS MUST BE BUNNED FROM THE BUSINESS

Lots of knowlodge and experience
5/5

The tour was great. Except the rhino we saw every animal on safari. Especially the camping was a bonus I didn't know one needed. But honestly it was very rewarding to really se thr animals up close without the car and hear their sounds at night. The driver spoke perfect English, is very experienced and knew alot about the wildlife in general. The cook was absolutely amazing. I've not have a comparable meal in the rest of my stay. He adjusted to our preference without hesitation. Also they both were very reliable. When a time was set, everything would be ready 5 min prior. I would definitely recommend

Extraordinary knowledge that transformed the mind
5/5

Our East Africa PHOTO Safari with **Shanjoy Tours** was nothing short of extraordinary — truly a bucket list experience that exceeded every expectation! From start to finish, the entire trip was flawlessly planned and executed with precision, care, and intention.

Beth handled every detail with such thoughtfulness, and it really showed — each experience felt personal and curated just for us. The accommodations were stunning, the food was incredible, and the people we met along the way made us feel like family.

Martin was so very helpful and available almost 24/7 for any questions during the planning process and arranged to meet us during our safari which was a nice personal touch.

We were fortunate to be hosted by **Patrick and Kem** for 11 unforgettable days. Their deep knowledge of wildlife, especially animal behavior, added so much depth to our game drives. Their ability to anticipate animal movements and position yhe custom Land Cruiser perfectly made for some of the most action-packed photo opportunities imaginable.

We received **5-star service** every step of the way and truly had a marvelous time. This was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure — and we’re already planning our next journey with Shanjoy in 2026!

**Highly recommend Shanjoy Tours** to anyone dreaming of a luxury, personalized safari experience. You will be in the best hands!

Very responsive to all communications and interested in all feedback
4/5

Tour guide Raymond was amazing and made our safari. Paced and satisfied our individual and group needs with skill. Great communication. Phenomenal skill in getting off the beaten track into quieter areas and finding the animals making us feel we were alone out there and not in a convoy of Jeeps as well as always always getting the best parking spot at every place we stopped. Value for money great. Lulu great at responding really quickly at all communications making you feel well supported

The camps were mostly filthy no hot water dirty matresses ,no toilet paper with staff cooking in kitchens in the camps at night making so much noise one couldn’t sleep.overpriced.
All viewings had so many tourist vans on disgusting roads that it was likely a peak hour expressway
