An outstanding, informative, and well-organized 13-day honeymoon!
We are so lucky we found Blue Cranes Safari! My husband and I normally plan our own travel, but since the trip was for our honeymoon, we decided to enlist the help of an operator. We chose Blue Cranes Safari because they were local, they customized an itinerary that magically fit our (very) long list of ideas and interests into 13 days, and Derek was friendly and easy to communicate with. They also were able to work with our budget, and hiring them was worth every penny.
Our guide Me-Gusto was one of the reasons the trip was so special. He was friendly and professional, passionate about Namibia, and truly a wealth of knowledge. Any question we had – whether it was about Namibia’s history, the birds & animals, the geology, and even the termites – he was able to answer! We loved hearing all of his stories, not just about Namibia, but about his life as a guide. He was a great photographer, and we are lucky that he was able to capture so many of our amazing memories of the trip.
Our itinerary was very ambitious, with jam-packed days. We were able to see Windhoek, Kalahari Desert, Sossuvlei, Walvis Bay/Swapkomund, Spitzkoppe, Damaraland, and Etosha. And while we wished we could have stayed at some of the lodges longer (2 nights was the longest we ever stayed), we appreciated the need to keep moving in order to see everything. Me-Gusto kept our spirits high and we were able to adjust when needed on-the-ground. All of the visits and activities were inspiring and informative, and in retrospect we’re glad we were able to see so much of Namibia!
We would recommend Blue Cranes Safari to all our friends and family. And while we would say it was a trip of a lifetime - we are already talking about the next time we’ll be back!

Great safari with a good guide
We spent 3 days in Selous with Isaya : safari by boat then a full day in the park and walking safari. All was very well organised : Isaya (and Francky) came and pick us at our hôtel in Morogoro and then we went to Selous. We slept at Mloka Lodge with Isaya and Francky : this lodge is very great. Safari was also great : we saw a lot of animals specially girafe and one léopard. Isaya gave us a lot of informations about animals and his country, it was very interesting.
We spent 3 good days with them.

Fantastic experience!
We greatly appreciated the professionalism of the Safari by Z team.
During the preparation Gladys was very efficient and responded very quickly to all our requests by making various proposals. During the stay she did a very good follow-up.
We were delighted with Ayubo driver guide who always knew where to find the animals and he was so easy to be with answering all our questions.
The car was comfortable and the roof can be lifted for better viewing. Binoculars were at our disposal.
Advice: take sweaters because in the evening it can be cool.
Great experience making full of memories

Well organized tour, great communication with the organizer.
Booked the 12 days safari with Greyton Bush Tours. I communicated with Paul, who was available all the times to assure that all the transitions going smoothly in both countries, Kenya and Tanzania.
This safari was one of the best experiences, excellent and knowledgeable tour guides, saw lots of animals including the big 5. Accommodation had a variety from tent camps to hotels, all good experiences. All included meals were tasty, good and fresh, plenty of fruits and vegetables.
Being a solo female traveler, all the guidelines assured my safety and to have a good time. Special thank you for the guides who made my trip memorable: Anthony, Clinton, Boniface and Mike.
Thank you Paul and Greyton Bush Tours for this amazing experience! Absolutely would recommend you to anyone who wants an awesome safari experience.

Amazing! Once in a lifetime experience!
Everything was just perfect!
The crew was amazing, the driver guide was very professional and punctual, the chef cooked some amazing meals for us throughout the Safari.
The communication with Hillary and Ally was top notch, the tour packages can be customized to fit your needs.
We've been to Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater and Conservation Area and trust me when I say that it is a surreal experience, we slept at Serengeti & Ngorongoro An'gatas, in a nutshell you are in the middle of a national park, no fence, wild animals are walking near your tent, just amazing and safe!
Just book a tour with Suricata and you will have something to tell your grandchildren about!
Until next time,
Hakuna matata!

Claude is incredible--very personable and knowledgeable!
The tour was very easy to set up through the website and the owner/operator was prompt, courteous, and responsive. My driver was Claude, who was super friendly and knowledgeable, even though I was the only passenger and had a million and one questions. He knew all the roads in the park and where the animals were most likely to be.
100% would use Golden Rwanda Safaris again and 100% would request the same driver!

Selfless and detail oriented.
Serengeti was amazing and our safari guide made it even more amazing.
From the time he picked us up from the airport, we knew we were in for some great adventure. The animals were amazing. We saw the lions, wildebeest, crocodiles, hyenas…everything that you can think of in a National Geographic documentary. Abbey and his team have great organizational skills and their safari knowledge is simply impeccable. They drove us in air-conditioned 4x4 land cruisers. The accommodations were fantastic; private and cozy. The food was delicious. The local folks we met were great to us. They smile at everyone and everything. The safari was flawless and I would recommend visiting Tanzania with Lush Africa Safaris.
