Vast stretches of natural beauty created for humanity and animals alike
We visited Sabi Sands and stayed in Elephant Plains. Safaribookibgs.com organised the entire trip and we got what they promised. Very good transport arrangement for 400 km drive to Sabi Sands from J'Burg. Our escort Tabo is too good, courteous and very safe driving. Friendly and lively.
Elephant Plains is a fabulous property. Property with about 10 cottages and organised with great elegance blending with nature surrounding that place. U get to see from your room deer, Elephant and may be even Lion pride. Excellent food arrangement. The Chef took special care of us as we are Vegetarians and served us with Vegetarian dishes. Our host Junaita (Hopefully I am spelling her name correct; apologies otherwise) is simply superb ever smiling and helpful.
Elephant Plains organised two safari rides in 10 seater Forest open vehicle with an escort and ranger. Both the escort and ranger ensured that we saw the Big Five several times. Simply the wildlife is awesome. I recommend Safaribookings and Elephant Trail.

Breath Taking Scenery
The city is fantastic, lots of places to visit and see. The food is tasty and the evening atmosphere is electric.
The beaches are stunning and the people are friendly.
The Mas Mara safari was a great experience, we saw all the animals and enjoyed a nice weekend away in a Masai Tent.

Beautiful location
We went to Nyerere wildlife park and it was beautiful with some amazing sites and incredible animals to see. Local culture was amazing and people were generally very friendly. The tour operator was very good too (Daigle Tours). However, for how much we are paying, I do not believe that enough is going to the locals who do the activities. When speaking to some of the locals, they are reliant on tips from travellers rather than being fairly paid by the tour operator for their services. This should be looked into. It does not mean the prices for tours go up, it means the tour gives a bigger share to the locals.

Natural Beauty - Wildlife is Awesome
Kenya is a naturally very beautiful place. The people are warm, welcoming, mild mannered and very pleasant to be around. The wildlife in the parks is awesome, the beautiful lions, majestic giraffes, elusive cheaters and leopards, playful elephants , ubiquitous zebras and wildebeests, Impalas, monkeys and baboons Meeting the Masai Mara tribe and actually going to their homes was very moving. Our driver ( Jackson) who took us around was fantastic and went out of his way to ensure we enjoyed the game drives and got the best views and photo opportunities possible. He was also always very punctual, polite and neatly attired.
The accommodation at the lodges were very comfortable with all modern amenities and a wide variety of food which was delicious.
Thank you Kenya - you have put a smile on my face !!

A perfect place to engage with the nature
Beautiful place, amazing experience. Would always recommend a tour guide to plan your trip. Would suggest Super Eagles for that.
Definitely should go to Masai Mara and spend few days with the wild along with the tribes.

9 Days Luxury Honeymooners Tanzania Wildlife Safari
We chose Kiwoito's company for our safari trip in Tanzania and have not regretted it for a moment.
The service was outstanding even before we arrived, and the availability was very high.
We received an organized and detailed program divided by days according to our desired vibe.
Charles met us on the second day, where he also explained to us face to face the package we closed, gave us tips for the trip, and explained in detail what to expect. It put our thoughts in order and eased our fears.
Everything was just perfect and accurate. The places where we traveled and the lodges were at the level we wanted, and some were exceptional.
The trips and places we visited were right on track, and much thought had gone into it. We started in the Arusha region and ended our journey in the Serengeti, where we flew to Zanzibar. It is important to note that Charles also closed the domestic flight to Zanzibar for us, so we did not have to worry about it. We saw different tribes, heard their life story, and even joined hunting with the last hunter's tribe.
Our driver was a champion, he picked us up from the first moment, understood what we liked and didn't and took us to places where you can see all the animals worth it. It is essential in a safari to have a driver who knows the places worth visiting. Our driver has 15 years of experience, and that says it all. He was highly professional, an excellent driver, and became our friend during our time together.
Everything was at a very high level, and we enjoyed ourselves. The trip would have looked entirely different if we didn't close with them.
We highly recommend this fantastic company that created a perfect and precise honeymoon for us. The trip was tailored for us and perfectly matched our dreams.

4 Day Safari and Panorama Experience with Norman and Brilliant!
Norman and his colleague Brilliant were exceptional from start to finish. We were met at Johannesburg airport and driven up to our 4 star hotel in Kruger. After check in we went on our first evening game drive. All organised really well and we saw so many animals in the first few hours, including 4 of the big 5 (no rhinos but the guide said they hadn’t seen any for nearly a month). The next morning was another game drive followed by a late afternoon relaxing at the hotel. The next day we changed our plans to do the panorama route (highly recommended) and we had another amazing day. On the last day we asked Norman if he could recommend anything for our visit and he obliged with a stop off in Pretoria on our way back to Johannesburg. It was really interesting to see a completely different side to our trip and Norman was a wealth of local knowledge and history of the area. I highly recommend Nhlalala Travel. Norman and Brilliant’s professionalism, flexibility, kindness and expertise made our trip one to remember and I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. For the experience we had, the price was an absolute bargain for 4 days of fun.
Nhlalala Travel are a smaller company, but if you want a tailored personal experience from a trustworthy guide, then I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you Norman and Brilliant. Well done in the rugby as well!

Honest and polite
“Great and well-planned”
The entire process of arranging my vacation to Africa with Serengeti Green was something I truly enjoyed. Everything went perfectly, from the initial email-based planning of my trip with Davies to my on-site nice and experienced guide Good luck! I had a great conversation with my driver from the airport in Mr. White who drove me from Kilimanjaro to Arusha. My expectations were exceeded in terms of lodging, food, and transportation- I was treated like a royalty!
Speaking in English with Good luck was never a problem; he shared a wealth of knowledge about the wildlife and environment, particularly regarding the reason the Serengeti is so treeless and flat! I had a great experience on safari! Even witnessed a lioness kill a zebra
