Wonderful Tanzania Southern Parks!
"We have been planning this trip for three years, and one of things we wanted to experience was the wild, remote and old part of Africa. That is the main reason we chose to go to the Selous Game Reserve, Ruaha National Park and these camps. We accomplished our goal.
There is so much more to see and experience here than just the mammals. The BaoBab and Tooth Brush trees... the Agama lizards, Puff Adder, Black Spitting Cobra and African Butterflies all prove that. I added 127 new bird species to my life list which I am quite proud of.
This was a trip during the Covid-19 age and yes, we had to put forth a little extra effort to get the PCR testing done in order to get to Tanzania and then back home, but we felt it was worth it. My wife and I for the most part felt like we were the only guests there. Some nights, we were the only guests in the camp. Most of the time we were the only car there watching lions. Very few other visitors were there while we were and it was nice and intimate. I'm sure the camps would like to have more visitors though.
All in all, thank you Tanzania Exclusive Journeys! It was a great trip and we can't wait to do it again!

Our guide Chris was excellent! Very knowledgeable, knew where to go for the best viewings.
This was my second “girls” trip with Peaks & Safari’s. The cost is very reasonable but the value is exceptional. This company, and Vera, are so easy to work with. They customize our tour specifically to what we are wanting, the accommodations they arrange are superb, and our tour guide, Chris, was terrific. I love that no detail is too small for them and the entire trip is seamless. From the time we are met at the airport I always felt secure and comfortable. I always knew what to expect and when to expect it. Our tour was private with just the five of us and our guide is with us from start to finish.
Kenya is a beautiful country, the landscape is ever changing…from the lush green of the farmlands, the peak of Mt Kenya, to the jaw dropping sights of the wildlife in the Masai Mara. The people are super friendly and it is definitely a trip worth taking. Have already scheduled my 3rd trip.

This tour operator really takes care of your needs, excellent organisation and very knowledgable.
Booked a safari tour in South Africa in March 2022. We stayed in 2 different private game lodges around Kruger National Park (Bundox and Makumu). Both lodges were excellent choices, with many different facilities including game drive safaris and spa facilities. The food and catering was also excellent at both lodges catering to customers' needs. The organisation by Cross Country Air Safaris was also excellent, the tour operator really took care to choose the right lodges for our needs. Great value for money and reliablity. Communication with the tour operator was easy, very knowledgeable, speaking from personal experience and always receiving prompt replies. I would choose Cross Country Air Safaris any time for another stay in South Africa or Botswana and in Southern Africa in general.

Outstanding experience
A few weeks before my holidays I contacted Federica to order a tour to Pilanesberg.
Throughout the whole process Federica and her husband did communicate quickly. To each small question, I received a dedicated and long written answer where you could see that these people really love what they are doing.
Value for money is outstanding! It was my first time in South Africa and Federica organized everything perfectly. The places offered by Federica and her husband are all self tested, so they are also very experienced and only work with people/hotels/guides they personally know. This makes sure that the package they are tailoring you fits your demands 100%.
Going the extra mile: I had so much fun talking to Federica. As a local she answers all your questions and also provides the cherry on top in terms of service. When I asked her about street food and local markets, she did not hesitate to take you and talk to the people on the street and get in contact with locals. I had the best lunch which was cooked over a fire and offered by kind local people - thanks to her. For such a unique experience you cannot pay.

Great communication and really friendly.
Really good value for money. Our guide Raheem was great - very friendly, helped us see all the animals we could want to within the first 24 hours. He would always go out of his way for us for any request we had.
Organisation of the tour was great too. Always quick to get back to us even when we needed to change our plans to fit everything in.
Only thing is for two vegans travelling, breakfast and lunch options were very limited. So advice to others would be to bring some non-dairy milk and cereal/granola for breakfasts and extra supplies for lunches before departing as there are no shops once out on safari.
Highly recommend Axis Safaris and Raheem to anyone looking to go on safari!

very good company for safaris
We are a couple from Italy and can highly recommend the Arusha based company Advaark Ltd. and the manager Philemon. We did a wonderful one week safari in the Serengeti and Tarangire national park, manyara lake, Ngorongoro crater etc.
He organized the entire trip in every detail following exactly our needs and wishes. Especially we can recommend the guide and driver Donatus. He was a really special guy and we became friends after very short time. Not only his notions about the regions and nature where exceptional, he never hesitated to realize all our special wishes and to give us every thinkable help and information . He did everything possible to drive us so close as possible to all interesting sites and animals, his unbelieavable good eyes allowed him to discover even little animals from such al long distance we could not even imagine before that it would be possible. At the end everything was perfect and an unforgettable life experience.
Thank you so much

World class professional and personal service
Have been traveling from Sweden to Kenya many times the recent years, both in private with my family, and with groups from my company, and I always contact Peaks and Safaris first. They have solved it all, from safaris at different park in East Africa, vaccation at the coast (from Diani to Lamu), hotels or apartement in Nairobi or just to find a good solution about your flight transfer; I can assure that Susan and Vera will do the best professional work in dialogue with you the costumer. I have also noticed that the safari guides connected to Peaks and Safaris are the most professional once; three days in Mara with a group in February 2022 and we got to things as the new born rhino cub and hyena cubs (except the big five of course). Next time in Kenya I will call Peaks and Safaris again.

Excellent service！
Golden Rwanda Safaris is a very reliable company with excellent customer service and affordable car rental price. Me and my partner had hired a Toyota rav4 from them and the car worked perfectly on both sealed and unsealed roads. The owner is always very responsive and genuine. He is happy to go extra miles to support us even it is offoffice hours. Strongly recommend to people who need a car or any travel packages.

Hi all,
This is Sara from Dubai, I had once in a lifetime experience in Victoria falls, Miss Julia was my point of contact and customized my itinerary in away that met my expectations, I had good time and loads of memories to pack it back to my country, I highly recommend people to go for the adventure, yet be Cautious of the immigration formalities which might be inconvenient, otherwise the overall experience is worth taking, especially Victoria falls park, angles pool experience, elephant reserve, and so much more,
