Super Eagles......Super Trip
Just returned from a 7 day safari in Kenya. What an amazing experience- we started with meeting our friendly guide called “Rhino” who expertly drove us from park to park in his comfortable and safe vehicle.
Rhino went out of his way to make our trip perfect and to enable us to see as many animals with real clarity. He showed great expertise about all the animals and taught us all so many interesting facts about them.
Throughout the trip we were fed excellently and stayed in locations that were in great reach of the national parks and lakes we visited.
I would highly recommend this tour company- we really had the most amazing time!

Discovery of Namibia
To begin with, we fell in love with Namibia and its very different landscapes. It was a feast for our eyes and brains.
Our trip lasted 14 days and we were able to visit the north and south of Namibia. The trip was professionally prepared and we didn't encounter any problems during the 14 days.
The lodges offered by firenfinch are exceptional.
The food is very good, even refined, and of course the wine is excellent.
The country is very easy, very very clean and above all very safe.
The people are very welcoming, charming and smiling.
We'll be back for sure!

Great
Despite the rain, our guide Glen was very helpful and professional to guide us within the park and still see a lot of animals!
They were also helpful to book a bus ticket for us and drop us directly there

Incredible Package at a Reasonable Price
We used Ranger Buck safaris to plan a trip to Zimbabwe Victoria Falls and Botswana Okavango Delta in March 2024. We could not be happier with the organization, itinerary, ease of communication, and the pricing!
We were visiting from the U.S. but wanted to start with a self safari at Kruger National Park in South Africa. Therefore, we did not use Ranger Buck for that part of our trip; however, Maria, our safari coordinator, went above and beyond by providing us with some helpful advice for our Kruger trip. After that, Ranger Buck organized everything for the next part of our trip, including flights from Kruger Mpumalanga Airport in South Africa to Victoria Falls, overnight stay at a wonderful hotel in Victoria Falls, evening sunset cruise on the Zambezi river, next morning visit to Victoria Falls, transport to Kasane Airport after that, flight into the Okavango Delta to Machaba Camp (which was absolutely wonderful), three nights at Machaba, then flights back to Gaborone where we departed back to the U.S. (with a tear in our eyes as we did not want to leave).
Prior to travel, I worked with Maria at Ranger Buck Safaris to come up with an itinerary and the level of detail that Maria/Ranger Buck provided in the itinerary was wonderful (detail down to daily snack times, dinner times, etc.). There was a link to our personal online itinerary which also included all necessary documents and information for our trip. The prices were also very reasonable for safaris in Botswana, especially in comparison to what some of the other safaris companies quoted. I highly highly recommend Ranger Buck Safaris and already am looking forward to when we can use their services next!

Honest and professional service!
Unique experience that was greatly improved by Ronald the guide! We saw the triple horned chameleon and the rwenzori turaco which was a goal of the trip! Thanks a lot to Emma for coordinating and being flexible to my schedule!

Fantastic
My experience with Tai Adventure was excellent 👌 compared to previous agents that I have used before. They organised a 2 days retreat at Lake Nakuru National Park and Hells Gate National Park. The safari van was always clean and the driver ensured we were comfortable answering all our questions during the drivers. Best experience, and looking forward to join them again.

He did his job very well and made sure we were on time for each and every activity.
Overall, I had a good time during my trip with Wild Jungle Trails. The accommodation had a nice ambiance, beautiful atmosphere for relaxing. All the activities done such as a game drive and boat ride were breathtaking. They did a good job organizing the trip.

Excellent value for money and my guide Evance could tell a lot with enthusiasm
Overall, I had a great experience during this safari. The pickup organised by Safarilink was fine. We made two stops on the way to the transfer point in Hoedspruit. As Safarilink transports people for different safaris, we were collected by the staff of this safari. After a quick drive, we arrived at the tent camp. My travel companion was not on the list, but this was not a problem after the pickup staff member checked with the camp. I think this happened because that person was added to the booking after I finalized the initial booking.
After arriving we had some time to relax until the sunset game drive. The beds were comfortable and in perfect condition. The game drive was done by Moditlo game reserve itself with their guides. They did it with fun and of course the expected caution. I experienced them as very professional with plenty of knowledge about the animals we saw.
Dinner was with all the guests, including people who arrived earlier. They cook original African and they did accommodate my Vegetarian diet.
The next day was early, we left at 5 am to go to Kruger. Our guide Evance (from the camp) did the tour in Kruger National Park. We drove more than 180 kilometres in 9 hours with plenty of time to stop if we saw something interesting. Evance told us some background information about the animals when we saw them. That was informative and nice and not too long. He kept it to nice fun facts and general information. We were free to ask questions about the animals and most of the time we got a nice answer. He talked to other drivers as well to know what they saw where.
The Panorama Tour was nice, we had good weather and the views were amazing, but I think the day in Kruger was the best day of the safari. If I am back in this area, I wouldn't do the Panorama Tour area again but spend more time in the nature reserves. For the first time in this area, I enjoyed the Panorama Tour and it was a nice day.
On the last day, we did nothing except drive back to Johannesburg airport, but if we wanted we could have done the optional excursions.
A relaxing morning was nice after some early starts.
Be prepared as wild animals as impalas walking and grazing around the tents.
After all, I enjoyed this trip. It was one of the best things I did in my two weeks in South Africa. Compared to other tours, it had a great value for money. All the staff was very kind and friendly.
If I have to say something negative, we had to pay to refill our bottles with drinking water if we were at the camp. Plenty of water was freely provided while on the excursions.

Just one word is needed "PERFECT"
My wife and I had a wonderful time with Yhun and his team on a previous visit to
Ethiopia,so it was without hesitation that we asked him to put together a 6 day
trip to the Omo valley, which was the only part of the country that we did not see
on our last visit.
Yhun and his excellent driver Sisay drove us South on a very special adventure
in which we enjoyed wonderful visits to many special places enroute to the main
objective of our trip, which was to visit the various tribes that are scattered far and wide in the Omo valley.
Yhun and Sisay have been there many times before so they knew exactly where
we needed to be at the right time to maximise the time that we spent in the tribal
areas..
In particular we loved our visit to the Mursi's where the ladies wear their distinctive
lip plates and of course the highlight was the bull jumping by the young men of the
Hamer Tribe to prove their manliness.
This is not an everyday event but Yhun and Sisay went to great lengths to make
sure we did not miss this and had a first class seat.
Another highlight was the dugout canoe trip across the Omo river to visit another
Isolated tribal village hidden away in this wonderful part of the world.
All in all another wonderful trip with Liyu Tours, which we could not fault the organisation in any way.
We could not imagine any other company bettering this service.
