Awesome tour guide, incredible memory!
Words can’t describe how amazing this experience was! James was so friendly and he took great care of our group. He shared so much helpful information along the way, and went the extra mile to help us find all the animals we wanted to see! The accommodations exceeded my expectations, too and the food was outstanding. I highly recommend James and Jocky Tours for an incredible experience and memory of a lifetime!

Excellent service and care for customers
I have been traveling for sometime but this company is really good. They know very well how to handle all their clients. I experienced value for my money. The guide was the best I have ever come across due to his knowledge of the wildlife and how well he helped us understand as much as possible. Great treatment.

Great value for money
Great value for money & well organized safari. Joseph was a knowledgeable guide with eagle eyes, able to spot animals from afar. Dennis was a great chef. Cool city tour with Asad, he was very helpful.

Friendly and customer oriented
I booked a two day, one night, lightning tour from Dar Es Salaam to Mikumi National Park through a third party and was connected with Gamily Tours. Gabriel and Peter were both good fun on the long 8-hour drive there and back, and I was lucky enough to see lions on the safari. Accommodation was basic but sufficient.

Suzanne was wonderful and very knowledgeable
Really nice tour guide and I highly recommend her. The park was wonderful but only because Suzanne really knew her stuff about all the different species.

Very kind and enthusiastic about nature
I had a lot of fun, saw a bunch of interesting animals such as lions, rhinos, and zebras. I would definitely do this again, they were very kind, came at a reasonable price and always put my safety first.

Fantastic and well organised safari. Im glad i chose Suricata!
We were a group of two, an amazing breath-taking expirience. From the beggining to the end of the safari we felt safe. We did the 4 day safari with our amazing driver Fredrick. He did his best to find even the rearest animals in the parks, patient (he stopped every time when we asked) and well educated person ready to give answers on every question about everything. Also our private chef Tito cooked specialy for us amazing and delicious local dishes every day. I have to mention the owner of the company Hilary, it was so easy to communicate with him even when i chose Whatsapp he was there for me all the time to give me information about the safari. A lifetime experience. also ask the driver for visiting the Masai village if you are interested of their life.

Darren and Kate are owner operators who give 110% to providing exceptional S. African tour services.
First, I want to say that I chose Compass Odyssey for our 15 night Southern African tour based on stellar reviews. Fantastic choice. Compass Odyssey provided in depth written communication regarding all aspects of our journey that started off in Cape Town for 4 nights at Tintagel House, then off to Greater Kruger at Bateleur Safari Camp for 3 nights. My wife Sandy and I then flew from Nelspruit to Livingston Zambia where we stayed at Thorntree River Lodge for 2 nights viewing Victoria Falls and a true off the grid African village. We were then transported by vehicle across the new Botswana border bridge to Chobe River Lodge for 1 night and the next day were flown by Safari air to the Okavango delta where we stayed 3 nights at Kanana Safari Camp. For our final 2 nights in South Africa we returned by air to Cape Town and the Tintagel House in the Gardens District. The trip vastly exceeded any expectations that I had regarding the beauty of Cape Town, the Safari camps with up close and intimate game drives, (participated in 12), the on the ground teams that Compass Odyssey has assembled and the fact that Darren followed our daily progress making sure everything went off as planned. That is over the top 5 star service. The tragedy of Covid is providing vaccinated travelers with a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience world class Africa without busses full of tourists and long cues. If you have an interest in seeing Africa, just do it. Quality, service, value, 5 star venues, Compass Odyssey has all of the boxes checked.

Magic Time in Serengeti and Ngorongoro
We booked our Tanzania Safari with Exposed Africa for 6 nights for our holiday. We were a group of 10 and most days we had 2 groups of 5. Our family was with Zungu (guide) and he surpassed our expectations as our steadfast safari guide. He is such a nice driver, navigator, animal hunter, naturalist, cultural liaison, interpreter, scheduler, lunch server, conversationalist, historian. Always polite and calm and willing to engage in cultural conversations, politics and reflect on complex topics. Not only did he change a tire in the middle of the bush, twice, he even helped a stuck driver out of the mud which we thought was rather heroic and generous. While we wanted to see the Big 5, he made no promises. He cautiously made our dreams come true, often heading off in a rush and spotting animals for us with binoculars. He interacted with our children and taught them things, mostly about the animals, their habits and environments. On our own game drive, he took the three children for their own grand adventure while the adults were behind in the other vehicle. Lucky for them to spy not only one leopard but two as they got ahead of us. We will never forget the memories we made on our safari. Thank you Zungu, we really appreciate your strong guiding skills and leadership. Our strong recommendation for Exposed Africa Team to all those planning to visit Tanzania. We will definitely go with them again next time when we return to Tanzania.
