Fantastic Wilma (as always!)
Having booked my first trip to South Africa with Wilma, and JD Destinations, last year I thought that it would be impossible to come close to matching my previous experience.
However, once again, Wilma has raised the bar and knocked it out the park! My fiancée and I travelled to South Africa this Nov/Dec to celebrate our baby moon so wanted to see other areas of the country whilst combining our love for safari and relaxation.
Wilma spent a great deal of time curating a bespoke trip that enabled us to see a number of South Africa’s hidden gems and create even more memories. Wilma’s knowledge is unquestionable and she has first hand experience of the travel routes that she proposed. She fully understands our requirements and is able to consistently deliver a 5 star experience.
Wilma also goes out of her way to ensure that a number of special touches were arranged by our hotels/lodges to celebrate our special vacation. Our trip ran incredibly smoothly enabling us to travel the country stress free which was important to us as my partner is pregnant. Wilma was on hand every step of the way and was also personally interested in hearing about our experiences which was nice. Whilst Wilma is a true professional she is now also a great friend, and we will forever owe her for our amazing experiences. Our relationship started from a recommendation from my father and, due to the success of all of our trips, Wilma is now arranging other trips for my wider family.
If you are considering booking with Wilma and JD Destinations, my advice would be to stop deliberating and to book. The consistent 5 star reviews speak for themselves. Look forward to booking our next trip with you Wilma when 2 become 3! And hopefully see you in London some day soon! Thank you once again for everything!

Professionally adventure
A very well organised safari: our guide Shafino was really experienced and gave us a really exciting, but also safe, experience, enriching with a lot of information about animals behavior, name of birds, plants and trees, geology of the parks.
The lodges/tented camps were some fantastic, some very good; just one too basic, but all with a very good quality of the food.
Animals sightings are guaranteed.

very nice and helpful
Everything was very good organised and the the people are very kind. I had a lot of questions not only about the safari but olso about travelling to zanzibar and he was so helpful to us. We enjoyed the gamedrive a lot with our three children. And we will definitely come back and book with Dallas Safari again.

Excellent!
I am delighted to recommend Jartan Laizer, an outstanding guide who demonstrated unparalleled expertise, professionalism, and a passion for the diverse beauty of Tanzania and Kenya during a safari in September 2023. Jartan possesses an in-depth knowledge of the rich history, culture, and natural wonders of Africa. He was calm and caring to everyone in our small group no matter what situations occurred.
I have been to 35 countries and with various tour groups, and I can honestly say Jartan was the best guide I have ever had.

Great tour I loved so much
Communication with Paul was easy and hasslefree. We really liked arrangement and care we were taken. Paul personally pivked us up early morning in Nairobi hotel and driver/guide Novel safely drove us all the way through Tsavo West and East to Diani beach. Excellent accomodation was provided with great food. We can fully recommend this tour.

Was a pleasure to have used Just Do from start to fininish!
Just Do are an efficient, very knowledgeable and a highly capable team. They sourced what we wanted with several options, followed up before we arrived to remove admin for us, and dealt with last minute changes we had to make without any fuss to us. It was a pleasure to have worked with them and will continue to do so on future trips for holiday and work travel.

Memorable Northern Circuit trip
Being based in Arusha, Gilmag Safaris was easy to deal with and responsiveness by email or WhatsApp was faster than any other tour operator I approached for quotes on a 7-day trip on the Northern Circuit. Paid for the customized trip by credit card with a modest surcharge. I met the owners, Gilbert and Mary. They were friendly and helpful, making sure I got to Arusha Airport for a flight to Seronera airstrip. An email miscommunication about what I wanted in the itinerary was quickly corrected. Everything promised in Gilmag Safari’s proposal was delivered. Praise for my guide Mbasha cannot be lavish enough. Mbasha is knowledgeable about the wildlife, an expert driver on roads others were not handling well, and a great traveling companion for my solo trip.

Professional, glad and informative safari guide
I had an incredible day at the safari, witnessing a variety of animals. Geoffrey, our guide, provided insightful information about the animals, their natural habitats, and the symbiotic relationships they share. I not only learned a lot but also had a great time thanks to Geoffrey's upbeat and humorous demeanor. The proximity to the animals due to the excellent driving added to the experience, allowing me to capture stunning footage. It was a perfect day, and I couldn't have asked for better service. Thank you ✨🦁
