A Dream Come True
5/5

Our Safari was everything we could've dreampt for and more! We got to see so many amazing animals up close, enjoy beautiful scenery, and witness the most incredible sunrises and sunsets. The hotels arranged for us to stay at were all top of the line and the ones located within the parks even lent opportunities to spot wildlife right from our room. We also opted to do a Hot Air Balloon Safari, which was one of the most exciting and memorable travel experiences of my life! Our driver was very knowledgeable of all the animals and countryside, answering any questions we could throw at him. Then from my first correspondence with Lucy she was incredibly helpful in making sure we got the best possible Safari experience. If you've ever thought about doing an African Safari I definitely would recommend going with Serene East Africa Safaris. They will give you everything you've ever dreampt of and more!

3 days around Rwanda
5/5

I had only 3 days in Rwanda and I wanted to the most of it. I contacted some agencies prior to my departure, and Golden Rwanda Tours was the one that offered me more things to do in such a short time for a very reasonable price. In 3 days we went to Akagera National Park, Gorilla Trekking, Lake Kivu and we did a Kigali city tour. They were very nice, communication was very good, they all speak very good english and told us about Rwanda history and culture. It was an amazing time we spent there and I would recommend their services to anyone. They were always on time and in a good mood. Also, in our last night there, while waiting to go to the airport they took us to dinner in a very nice restaurant with a great view of Kigali's city. Thank you so much, Michael and Frank!! We loved our visit and we hope to see you again!

amazing trip
5/5

Erasto started out with great planning. He knew the right questions to ask to figure out what we wanted in terms of budget, accomodations, and day-to-day animal viewing. He is a good driver and never got stuck despite all the mud. The car was new and he kept it very clean (again despite all the mud). The electrical chargers worked well. Responses to e-mails were very prompt. It didn't hurt that the scenery and wildlife were beautiful too.

All was as expected, but driver was simply a driver, not a guide
3/5

Hotels and services were exactly as agreed when organising the trip.
Everything went fine except for the fact that the driver was simply acting as a driver, and not doing much explanations about animals, landscape, people, local customs...
Even if he was always polite and correct, we expected more interaction or information from his side, to really profit our trip and learn about the place and the people of Tanzania.
Appart from that, the trip was ok.

Well organized and fun Kilimanjaro expedition
5/5

With a group of 5 friends we booked our Kilimanjaro expedition through Jackpot Safaris. Andrew was our contact person and he was friendly and well-organized every step of the way. Two days before departure we had a briefing together with Andrew and the 3 guides who would be leading our trek - this made us comfortable to know everything was taken care of and we had all equipment necessary.

The expedition went very well. Livingstone, the lead guide ensured that everything was well organized and regularly checked up on our health status. This ensured that all 5 of us made it to the summit on a cloudless morning with great views. Fighting the altitude sickness was though, however, we think taking the 6-day Machame route worked well with a day of acclimatization.

Coming down the mountain we had a great last lunch, thanked all the porters, cooks and guides and back at Jackpot Safaris Andrew was there to hand out our certificates. Thanks Andrew, Linvingstone and the whole crew!

Safari was one of the most wonderful things what had happened with me
5/5

Before Safari we had made investigation of few offices with their offers and choose Karibu because they have chipest price with good program. The living conditions were even better than we expected. Double bad in the individual tent with own bathroom!!! Everything clean, not a lot meal but tasty and enough for being full. But what was the most luckiest in our trip this is Arony driver. Thanks him to show us The Big 5 in 4 days and a lot of other rare animals. He has awesome experience around 20 years, he knows the all roads and shortest ways, he has good knowledges about all animals we saw and good understandable English to explain everything. Even in so dangers (with traffic) county as Kenya Arony shown us very good driver skills and we had staying safe all the trip without losing speed. What we definitely understood the main thing when you try to choose safari is the experience of your driver - without good driver you won't see something really interesting or will be stuck in the wet road. Just two things which I didn't like it is Naivasha lake and visiting Maasai village. They cost 20$ per person but I think it is too much and the driver should have clarify all additional visiting on the start of the trip.

Samburu 3 Nights and Nanyuki 2 Nights
5/5

My trip was amazing having booked with palmridge tours. The driver was cooperative and guided us well thought-out the whole trip. The accommodation was well organized as we wanted and the safari to the reserve was fantastic as we were able to see most of the big five and other animals. Would recommend if you want to travel book with Palmridge Tours as they will not disappoint you. Looking forward to another one to Masai Mara for the wilderbeest migration in July.

Excellent choice for Safaris in South Africa
5/5

One of the best tours I have ever done. The guide Alex Freire is a sensational person who knows a lot about the subject and loves what he does, which is something very important. I had the opportunity to see animals very closely and it was a great experience. Ideal for anyone wanting to do a Safari in Johannesburg. He speaks fluent Portuguese as well as German and English. The company does other very interesting tours as well (including for Namibia and Botswana, which I want to do in the future). I recommend you check out the Unique-Safaris website and facebook.

A reliable tour agency and very good planning of our itinerary by Ms Laurette of Pembury
5/5

We are a group of 12 seniors from Singapore just back from an exhilarating 15 days tour of South Africa, Safari Parks and Victoria Falls. Our itinerary was initiated by us but Ms Laurette of Pembury has given lots of input and suggestions on the feasibility. During the 6 months of preparation , Ms Laurette has promptly and patiently responded to our enquiry. When the final countdown on 24/2 our anxieties were relieved, every thing went without a single glitch that include different countries transfers, tour guides, games drives, restaurants booking etc. We thank you Laurette for the wonderful and hardworking attituude. We strongly recommend her services to all who wish to visit South Africa and Victoria Falls.

Excellent service, reliable and professional!
5/5

My friends and I planned for a safari tour including climbing Mount Kilimanjaro so we heard from a friend about Ruff n Tuff safaris and told us that they offer the best services l. So we started communicating with Ruff n Tuff Safaris, they were prompt in responding to our emails. We agreed that we would need an experienced guide and that's who we got to be exact they gave us Rama Mustafa who was all we could ask from a guide. Our trip started when we arrived at the Kilimanjaro airport where we were received by the company staff who were very welcoming. During the trek the guide was very calm and not rushing us. All in all my friends and I had a great time which was made even great by Ruff n Tuff Safaris!!
