Outstanding and way over our high expectations!!
We never ever, during our over 20 years of travelling around the world, have experienced such excellent service and communication with a tour agent before! Thank you so much Nicolette for answering our 100 e-mails so fast!
We went for a 8-day Namibia Classic Safari in our own vehicle and with our superfantasic driver and guide, mr Marius Siemens.
Nicolette and Marius made all our wishes and dreams come true way over our high expectations! Those 8 days seems to us as a lot longer cause of everything we got to see: The amazing different landscape that changed from day to day like the wonderful colors of the big dunes in the Namibdesert "floating" out to the coast and the wonderful city of Swakopmund.
And the wildlife we got to see!!! Totaly amazing! Marius knew exactly where and when to go where to get to see the most. And we sure did!
One of our days in Etosha we saw lions, leopard and cheeta - all before lunchtime!! Above that w also got to see desertelefhants and the African elephants as well! Marius always made sure we got the best possible angle for a photo and he also has a great knowledge about the wildlife that made all our questions answered.
The lodges and food was also great and we really don´t know how to express ourselves to be able to say just how perfect this safari has been.
You have to experience it, feel it, live it. And we promise: You will not regret it!
Once more: Thank You so much Nicolette at Nature Travel Namibia and mr Marius Siemens - you are simply the best! We will be back!

Amazing!
I did the 6-Day Big Five Camping Safari and couldn't have been more pleased!
From the beginning, with Evelyn's help and clarification of all doubts, passing by the excellent Hose driver who accompanies us throughout the journey, "hunting" almost all animals and giving us the best explanations, and ending with our chef, who made me put on a few pounds.
They were all very kind and helpful, I'm very grateful to them!
Regarding the program, I think I chose the most complete one and it allowed me to see everything I wanted. I highly recommend it, I loved the experience!

Perfect Safari ! Thank you :)
It's a great experience that the Serengeti Wakanda Tours & Safaris offered us for 5 days. We were delighted without having to worry about anything. And thanks to Simba, our passionate guide about his job, we learned a lot about fauna and flora. We even observed the famous "Big Five" !
The organization of the stay was perfect, and the employees of the company always available. We were even upgraded for two nights in lodges. Dullah, our cooking chef, made us absolutely delicious meals. And Bartho, the manager, helped us a lot for the rest of our trip, with a wonderful day including the Materuni waterfall, the coffee plantation and the Kikuletwa hot springs.
We therefore recommend Serengeti Wakanda Tour without hesitation !

Africa has the beauty of Nature at hand
From the airport to the Safari, the operations are handled in such a professional way to warm your heart. The price was quoted and negotiated was worthy the Visit in Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Mt Kilimanjaro trekking

I found Jocky Tours through other reviews. And this copmpany is really good - they proposed the best prices among all other tour companies, also they answered very quik through email and whatsup. Our counsiltant Minneh tride to provide best for us- for example we ordered the airport pick up - our time of arrival was 4 am - and the driver was there and waitin, and I called to whatsup number and they answered - by 4 am!! They join us to small group and we travelled for 4 days safary : Masai Mara - Naivasha. All accomodation was good and clean, food 3 times per day, and all tickets inclued!!Our tour guide name was James and he really good in what he is doing- he explained a lot about all animals , and during 1 day of safari we saw all animals in that region - it was really nice and unforgetible expirience. Thank you so much Joky tours and madam Minneh and James.

The most professional guide and the best driver, thank you for the great time, Onesmus!
Gofan is the first operator who get back to us and most responsive destination management company that has replied to our inquiry, very patient, clear communication, flexible and thoughtful.
After arriving at Nairobi, our guide+driver Onesmus came to the hotel on time and very helpful. We had the best time ever in life to visit Masai Mara national reserve. Onesmus is an extremely experienced guide, an animal expert, and the best driver. We're very touched by how he is offering support to everyone all the time, and he is warm to all the people we met. By his expertise, we was lucky to see all the wild animals and amazing landscapes.
This is a great journey and hugely appreciated Onesmus for he's knowledge and made us had an incredible time in Kenya. We're definitely coming back and will stay longer to discover more places.
We're very lucky to choose Gofan and met Onesmus!
Best Regards,

Perfect tailor made trip within budget
Perfect tailor made trip within budget
Our trip perfectly matched our expectations. Marieke and team are good listeners and being very experienced, while living in SA, she could translate our wishes in a very nice tailor made journey. Everything was perfectly organised, rechecked and double checked. She knows most accommodations herself. Because she lives in SA it is very easy to contact her by Whats-app, mail of phone. Next to that African Travels provides a very handy - offline - app with all necessary data in it. Marieke contacted us regularly to check if everything was still OK, and it was !!

Excellent experience
I highly recommend Sunup Adventures. Easy, convenient communication via whatsapp in planning the trip, with no hard sell. Once in Kenya our guide Josh was excellent. Very knowledgeable not just about the wildlife but also able to answer any questions about Kenyan history and society. The roads were pretty treacherous at times after heavy rains so his accomplished driving skills were also needed. We were lucky to see every animal possible in our 3 day safari.

Very reliable and extremely good driver. Saw all big 5 and had a wonderful group and a lot of fun.
The car was fine for the budget, but we would recommend to use two drivers at least for the parts with the very long hours. Our driver Tony never showed any signs of tiredness and we always felt safe, but it just seems to much of driving for one person on one day.
The accommodations where fine for the budget. Only the last two nights at amboseli national park the mattress was way too soft. Here the bed bases need to be fixed!
The trip to lake naivasha was quite boring, uninspired and expensive. We would recommend to skip this for your clients, as the rest of the group felt like it was a waste of time.
We also felt like Massai Mara + lake Nakuru would have been enough for seeing all animals and experiencing the nature of Africa. The additional Amboseli NP was fun, but not really necessary.
A big big compliment goes out to our driver Tony. He knew a lot about the animals, was very reliable, always on time and an exceptional driver. Where other cars got stuck or couldn't drive he managed easily. We felt very safe with him.
