Trip of a lifetime, WOW!
Our ten day Signature tour of South Africa was amazing. Every detail was full and complete: service, accommodations, food, sight-seeing, game drives, information about local people and customs, tours in Johannesburg and Cape Town, cable car rides, local restaurants, and one dinner theater with inter-active entertainment. We felt very safe because Go Touch Down owned each of the three hotels/resorts that we stayed in, as well as all of the staff were employees of the tour company. This included guides, rangers, drivers, cooks, and servers. There were five in our tour group and we were treated like royalty!!
The tour company also went above and beyond expectation when our return flights were grounded in Cape Town due to grounding by the South African authority. Our guide, Jonathon, was in constant contact with the GTD South African Operations Manager and another airline to get us rebooked to fly to the USA. We couldn't have done this ourselves, and thanks to them we arrived home on the original day. This tour company is the best!!

A Wonderful Tanzania Safari!
We spent the 4-day safari with Tanzania Exclusive Journeys and had a blast! We’ve been so lucky to see the big 5 and dozens of different species. Going back with the head full of memories! The whole experience with Tanzania Exclusive Journeys and the quality of lodges proposed were both excellent. The team has been very friendly and helpful from the very first contact to the end of our trip.
Our driver and guide (Frank) was super knowledgeable about wildlife and knows the parks inside out, and also the great chef (Kim) who was traveling with the group and cooking fresh meals every day. I can only recommend Tanzania Exclusive Journeys, they’re excellent!

Incredible experience with a bit of everything !
Communications:
-quick and clear communications from everyone on staff
Staff:
- Andre and Thabo were both excellent. Andre handled he coordination and Thabo drove for the entire trip. He not only was efficient but also added some jokes and mar the experience even more fun
Value for the money:
- Really good value for the money. You could easily pay twice this price for a similar tour with another operator. The company also allowed us to customize so we got to do and see everything we wanted to
Reliability: everything was on time, and pretty well planned. We had a 4 day safari, and I think that every event was started on time.

Bonfire Adventures!! The best thing that happened to both local and international tourism
We’ve engaged Bonfire Adventures in several of our holidays like Maasai mara and recently Mombasa. Traveling with kids and no complaints whatsoever!
Bonfire keep up the great services.

Perfect experience
The 4 days of safari were perfect. We made 3 parks with different vegetation. We saw all the animals we wanted to see, including all the Big Five.
How not to thank Lewis and Ben for this safari. Our driver Lewis was perfect, always with a smile. Ben is the best cook.

Karibu Safaris is trustworthy and caring
We opted for Karibu Safaris as a budget tour provider and have not been disappointed. We drove to Masai Mara in a convoy of 4 landcruisers. So we knew in case of a flat tire or something we drivers/guides would help each other out. The accommodation was Miti Mingi Eco Camp (not Enchoro - but I think they are alike). You have to know that the accommodation is pretty basic, but since you are out exploring all day it does not make a huge difference anyway. The staff was super friendly, the food was nothing fancy but good. The game drives were exactly what we were looking for: We enjoyed driving through the vast landscape and loved seeing the animals alongside with explanations from our guide Peter. It has to be noted that the whole team was really caring and wanted to make sure we had a good time. Since we had to be at the airport on our last day, they arranged to programme according to our needs do that we would be sure to get to Nairobi on time. A huge thank you!

Amazing Experience, Wonderful Company
Just got back from an incredible trip to Tanzania with Tanzania Exclusive Journeys. They arranged an amazing trip that was off the charts memorable. The wildlife was stunning and abundant and they took great care in arranging cultural events that are informative and really fascinating. This was my second tour with Tanzania Exclusive Journeys and I’m working on arranging a third with them. The entire team goes above and beyond to put together the perfect itinerary as well as keeping everyone safe during COVID. How many people can say they watched an African sunset while sipping champagne and hanging out with Maasai warriors? Come for the wildlife, but fall in love with the people. Truly an exceptional team to experience Tanzania with!

Visitors are the bosses
We had a 4 day safari that included Tarangire, Ngoro Ngoro and lake Manyara. All lodges were great and the staff was very kind and helpful in all of them. The highlight of our experience was our guide Mwita. He was always offering great information about the places, he was very cool and kind. Thanks Mwita for the experience!

Amazing! Lost for words
Four our us on tour with a dedicated driver, Andrew. He couldn't have done more for us - early mornings, long days, spotting animals and birds for us at every turn. We stayed in 8 different camps - from tents to lodges. All were fabulous - lots of food, comfortable rooms, welcoming staff. We saw just about every animal you would expect to see, and so many babies. Sunrises and sunsets. Andrew was happy to be up early for sunrise (and knew just where to find the best spot for photos), stay later for sunsets (with elephants and Mt Kilimanjaro a highlight), the hours he put in were over and above. Cheerful all the time - even when the truck needed a thorough wash after a muddy rainstorm.
We couldn't recommend these guys highly enough. The trip of a lifetime made perfect by Tazama Holidays.
