Amazing
Wonderful experience, absolutely to be redone. It was my first Safari but I had a great time, the welcoming, kind and warm people and also the excellent cook. The food was in large quantities and yummy even with gluten free options for me, not a given at all!

-Full review:
I booked my Africa trip last minute in Jan 2023, so I messaged multiple Serengeti tour operators. Luxury safari replied quickly and provided clear pricing for their various experiences. Other operators seemed slower.
I spoke with Noel briefly and we decided on the 4 day package (3 national parks). They went above and beyond including on time airport pick up (despite my delayed arrival), making sure the tent size is correct ...etc.
Our driver/guide, Mtinangi, was VERY knowledgeable about animals and the ecosystem; I'm a Biologist so we were both nerding out :) He was phenomenal with his jeep; he took us to a few exclusive places the other guides didn't know how to navigate (water crossings, mud ...etc). The cook made delicious food everyday.
We saw all the animals since Mtinangi knew some ideal spots: "the big five" (rhino, elephant, Lion, leopard and Buffalo), hyena, giraffe, warthogs ...etc EVEN an elat. We witnessed a successful daytime lion hunt (the guide has only seen it 3 times in his 15 years of experience)!
I would highly recommend this tour company! They truly gave me everything I want in a Serengeti experience.

From beginning to end the service was excellent!
Everything about this tour was great! I went alone and felt so safe! Everyone made sure I was comfortable and answered all of my questions. They were always early to make sure I was on time for all of my activities! They would even text me to make sure everything was to my liking and even made sure I liked my lodge accommodations! Thank you all for making sure I was safe and well taken care of!

A Perfect Safari
Wakanda operators are ultra-pro, they exposed differents safari pack offers to us and led us to a perfect trip.
Andrew, our guide during the safari knows perfectly the parks and led us to find all the animals of the big five, espacially many lions. He was very kind and attentive to our wills and explained to us the way of life of the animals and the differents types of plants we’ve seen.
We hardly recommand this operator and Andrew (especially for French, Andrew talks very nice french) for a safari trip in Tanzania.

An experience of a lifetime !
We did 5 days with a group and 3 days in private. That was so great ! I recommend this tour to every type of travelers. It's a thing you have to do in your life !
Citrus Tour is a great choice to do this trip. The price are not that high and it includes almost everything.
Steve sold us the trip, but he also helped us with a lot of things before and after the trip
During our trip, we had 3 different divers : Clinton, Kennedy and Ken. We had a great time with the three of them.
A little thing though : the drivers gave a little of explanations but it would be great to have more explanations and anecdotes about the animals. We feel like it would have been better and more interesting with a guide.

So Happy I Went With This Company!
I knew I wanted to go on Safari but I didn’t even know where to start. I am so happy I got connected with Alex at African Welcome Safaris because he put together an awesome vacation! I am a solo traveler in his 30’s and really enjoyed the itinerary. Will definitely use again next time!

Perfect and amazing experience
We had a tour to Masai Mara and Ambuseli with Baboon Budget Safaris and it was amazing! Everything was planned perfect and even the price was reasonable.
If I come to Kenya once more, definitely I choose their safari tours again.

Smart voyage is an excellent and very detailed planner.
The trip was value for money! Smart voyage planning is so well detailed that she planned for us the activities for each single day. The fact that you just have to appear and enjoy the activities was so worth it. If you're planning a trip Smart voyage is the best option. I've already started planning my next trip with her.

Kruger and Sabi safari
Our family of four had a wonderful safari experience. The company were excellent and supportive throughout. All transfers went smoothly and we didn’t have to worry about anything. It was stress free.
One thing we should have done on our side was to ensure we had more planning involved for travelling with a vegetarian. The lodge wasn’t very well prepared for this so it’s worth mentioning early in the process
Thanks a million for everything

Super professional and great experience
My husband and I were going for a three days safari to Volcanoes NP and the twin lakes. Our guide was wonderful, super professional and flexible to make us feel comfortable and have a good experience. All was organized beforehand by Mariam very fast and the planning with some change requests from our side went smoothly so we were set and well informed before we went on the safari. The selection of local national park guides was excellent, as well as the accommodation. This is so much recommended and I will definitely recommend Rwanda safaris as well as Kagera Safaris in particular to everybody going. Thank you so much Miriam and Ciprian.
