Excellent service, reliable and fun!
I had a great experience doing a 7 days Safari: visited Masai Mara, Naivasha, Nakuru and Amboseli. I did see the big five, which was awesome! Accomodation was perfect for budget. Our driver Simon was excellent, very kind person. Also thank you to Bilbad, he was my contact person before travelling on Safari and he was always ready to respond to my questions. As a solo female traveling to Kenya, I fully recommend. The company is reliable, the tour itself is nice with the people you get to travel with, and the whole team was very welcoming.

Beatiful Park but watch out for corruption
We flew into Masai Mara and were held up for some time from entering the park as the agents said the network was down and they could not verify our pre-paid fees. When our guides refused to pay the bribe the network suddenly was back up and we were allowed entry. Almost immediately upon entry we were pulled over by a "ranger" who stated we had driven in an area where we should not have. Even though there were at least 7 other vehichles doing the same thing and one that was still stuck in mud, we were the only ones stopped. Our guide was threatened that we could lose our access to the park for the entire time we were to be there (2 days). In the end our guide paid the bribe and we were on our way. I stongly suspect that the officals at the airport contacted the ranger to extract our "Fee" since we hadn't paid the bribe at the airport.
We stayed in 3 other parks and never saw anything close to this corruption. It made us not feel safe in this park. While the park itself was amazing I would not go back to this park and would advise anyone wanting to visit Masai Mara to reconsider or just know that there will be "Fees" to pay.

Sabrina was ultra responsive and made the entire experience just easy for us. Definitely recommend
Our trip to Botswana and the surrounding regions was a truly remarkable experience, and we have Sabrina de Pol from SafariOnline to thank for making it all happen so seamlessly.
From our initial enquiries to the end of the trip, Sabrina was exceptionally responsive. She addressed our questions almost instantaneously, demonstrating both professionalism and a genuine passion for ensuring we had an unforgettable holiday.
Where Sabrina truly shone was in her ability to provide tailored recommendations. Her intimate knowledge of the Okavango Delta and Chobe National Park allowed her to suggest activities and accommodations that perfectly suited our interests and budget. Her tips were spot-on; from the safari drives to the sundowner cruises, every experience exceeded our expectations.
Coordination and logistics can often be the most stressful part of any trip, but Sabrina handled these aspects flawlessly. We also ventured into Botswana, South Africa and Victoria Falls, and despite the complexity of travelling through multiple destinations, every transport was impeccably organised. This smooth planning lifted a significant burden off our shoulders, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of the regions we visited.
In short, Sabrina de Pol was fantastic to us. Her attention to detail, quick response times, and passion for what she does are simply unparalleled. We couldn't recommend her services more highly for anyone looking to explore Botswana and its neighbouring wonders.
