Excellent service from beginning to end.
I had a 10 day Solo trip in Rwanda with Africa Tours Adventure and could not have been happier. The owner, Nicholas, was very helpful in customizing my trip. He was always quick to respond to any questions I had and he had great ideas for my trip. My guide, Barnabas, was knowledgeable about the country and the wildlife. He also was very good at anticipating my needs and keeping me on schedule.
I was able to see everything I wanted to at a reasonable price. Nicholas gave me lots of options for activities and accommodations that worked with my budget. In the end, my trip included 2 Gorilla treks and a golden Monkey trek in Volcanoes National Park, colobus monkey and chimpanzee treks in Nyungwe National Park, a game drive and boat ride in Akagera National Park, a stay at Lake Kivu, museums, nature hikes, and more. I felt like the accommodations were well represented to me and were of good value. The vehicle assigned to my guide for the trip was a good Land Rover. Overall, my trip with Africa Tours Adventure met or, in many cases, exceeded my expectations. I would travel again with them in a heartbeat.

Safari booking made easy
This was my third trip to Botswana using African Ubuntu Safaris. They respond to communications in a timely manner and the service is exceptional. You tell them what you want and they do all the work putting it together. I've had no issues on any of the trips. Transfers, including a border crossing, have always run smoothly and the hospitality of the safari companies, the accommodation and the guides have exceeded expectations as have the wildlife sightings. As an older woman fairly new to solo travel, the ease of aspects like transfers has been particularly important.
On my recent trip I spent a night in Maun at Cresta Riley's before embarking on a safari to the Central Kalahari Game Reserve with Letaka Mobile Safaris. This included three nights at the Wilderness Plains Camp and six nights mobile camping. I enjoyed it all. The Wilderness camp is lovely and staff are welcoming and friendly. The highlight for me was the mobile camping. The Letaka guide was outstanding, as were also the meals produced by the camp chef. The Central Kalahari is an astonishing place, wild and vast. We had good wildlife sightings and it is a place I'd like to visit again, hopefully next time after they've received some heavy rains. The next visit to northern Botswana is already in the planning, this time not travelling solo, and we hope to book it through African Ubuntu Safaris. I would recommend them with confidence to anyone planning an African safari.

Experience of a lifetime
Outstanding. Africa is an experience of a lifetime, but a good tour company can make a big difference. Otieno at Kenya Walking Survivors was extremely helpful. I particularly appreciated his promptness in replying to our many messages.

First class all round
We have just returned from an absolutely wonderful 15 night holiday spanning two different Safari locations and the island of Zanzibar. From first contact to a welcome home message, Rose provides a friendly and first class service. Her recommendation of Sirikoi Lodge in Lewa and Cottars 1920 Camp in the Masai Mara was faultless, the two centres complimented each other perfectly and enabled up to see a wide range of northern and southern animals. We travelled with our two daughters, age 7 & 11, and they had the most amazing experiences, including having their own 'tent' and guard at Sirikoi and feeding the pet giraffe there. Everything was taken care of from the moment we landed in Nairobi and were met coming off the plane with a private car to the arrivals hall! After a week of safaris the beach at Tulia, Zanzibar was the perfect end to our trip. It is true that Africa gets under your skin and we are already dreaming of going back. If you are looking for hassle-free, friendly, knowledgeable and first-class help to book your holiday to Africa then you will not be disappointed in the Luxury Safari Company.

Excellent service and a really flexible organization and a really skilled driver and guide.
Really good experience in our contacts with the company before our 5-daystrip to Bwindi and easy to get in touch with the company when needed. Our expectations were high about our trip and everything was even better. The gorilla safari, the safari in Queen Elisabeth National Park gave us so much more knowledge about what Uganda could offer and the lodges were fantastic stays, in Bwindi Gorilla Misty Camp and in the QE National Park Enganzi Game Lodge.
On top of everything we had a driver and a guide, Charles, that made the trip moore than just a safari, he really cared about us all the time and gave us much more than just being a driver. A really good representant for the company and for the tourism in Uganda.
To summarise, a fantastic trip with a professional driver and a trusthful company.

Amazing Safari to Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorogoro Crater
The safari tour was amazing and the service of Orongai was perfect. They picked us up from the airport and brought us back to our guesthouse in Arusha.
The tourguide (Witson) was very kind and skillfull. He knew a lot about the wildlife in the 3 parks we visited.
The selected lodges (Serena Hotels) have high standards of quality and service. The views of our rooms were amazing and the food was great after an intense day of gamedriving.
We highly recommend this tour operator and especially Witson as a guide! He was perfect for us :)

Thanks for making it easy Brenda!
A friend of our told us about Tanzania Choice Safaris when she heard we were going to Tanzania. That was the easy button for me since I did not have to do any research to find a reputable company. Brenda replied to my e-mail immediately and most of all was with me every step of the way not only helping me to prepare for my trip to Africa but also with safari preparation. I did not shop prices, because I wanted someone I could trust, and I got more than that, so I can't comment on how their prices compare, but I can say she took care of us when the pastor who we were visiting wanted to join the safari with us!
