Got quick replies. Could texted by WhatsApp. Guide was friendly. Office wasn‘t eas to find.
Paied USD 720.00 for 6 days (landcruiser) with the budget version. Visited Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. Very long distances between. Also very bumpy roads. Guide (Jimmy) was friendly and helpful. But didn‘t introduce himself. Als didn‘t tell us about nice facts (countries, nationalparks,). Didn‘t ask about our wishes (animals) which we want to see. Because it was a budget trip we got simple lunch boxes. Accommodations were better than expected (AA lodget, hotel in lake nakuru and Maasai mara). It was sad that we didn‘t start in Amboseli very early with the game drive. We started at 8:30 (too late for seeing wild cats). Was sad that we didn‘t stay a long time at the place where the lions were. Saw 4 of 5 big fives. The driver/guide could be more interessted in us (aks questions of us). On the last day we finished 30 minutes earlier compared to another groupe. Afterwards we waited 30 minutes at the AA lodge in Amboseli there. I was happy that we could catch the train in Mombasa (3pm).

Amazing experience from start to finish, great team
We had the most incredible experience with Travel Africa Safari Agency. I will absolutely recommend this agency to everyone I know.
From the start, Mohamed was extremely responsive and had answers to all of my questions. We felt like we were in great hands and it was a perfect representation of the level of service we had throughout our trip. The night before the safari, Mohamed explained the entire timeline to us and we were picked up on time the next morning.
Our guide, Joseph, was so knowledgeable and did a fantastic job. He could also spot animals from so far away, even seeing a leopard hiding on rocks that I can’t believe we saw! Joseph was a fantastic driver and made for a perfect team with our chef Richie. Richie even baked fresh bread in the middle of the Serengeti, which is something I will remember forever!
I highly recommend this team, we had the best time, saw every animal on our list, and enjoyed every second of our Safari!! I believe the safari was worth so much more than the price, this team over delivered every step of the way. True commitment to hospitality and making dreams come true for their guests. Thank you Travel Africa Safari agency team!!

Well organised and extremely helpful
We booked our 4 night Kruger safari with Karina from Safari Online and it was a great decision! Karina was super helpful in providing us options for different lodges and parks to consider, she had personally visited everywhere we discussed and that really helped to have that specific insight speaking from experience when making our decisions on the itinerary. We compared numerous quotes and found Safari Online to be very competitive, so all in all it was an easy decision to book with them. Karina stayed in touch as we waited for our trip to commence, sending us helpful packing lists, itineraries and tips. When in South Africa to start our safari everything was seamlessly executed, from the collection at the airport to the transfers between lodges. The private reserves which Karina helped us select (Klaserie and Sabi Sand) had amazing game viewing as we were so lucky to see so many animals and witness some amazing interactions. This in part was due to the determination of the wonderful guides we had at both lodges Safari Online helped us select. I would not hesitated to book our next trip to South Africa with Safari Online or recommend them to anyone else!

We loved our trip. Johny Jackson was our guide and he was amazing. I would highly recommend him
Our guide was Johny Jackson. We started as a professional tour and ended like family. Our tour exceeded expectation. We learned so many new things about Kenya and we would definitely recommend this tour to our friends. People are the most important part of any journey and we met the nicest people and felt safe and happy all the time

Absolutely amazing
Axis African Expedition and Safaris was amazing from the start. Lennox was easy to communicate with and helped us organise our trip taking into account all our requests. He was flexible with changes and assured us a good time.
When we arrived, we were handed over to Johny Jackson who was introduced to us as our safari tour guide. He was amazing from start to finish and always went that extra mile to make sure that we were all comfortable, happy and safe. Our game drives with Johny were incredible. He made sure that we had the best view and spots for great pictures and videos. He ensured that we made the most of our time in the National Parks and that we saw everything that Kenya has to offer. When transitioning between parks Johny’s music was on point and our safari jeep was always full of warmth and laughter. Johny’s now a part of our family, we had the best time with him and I could not recommend him more.

Extremely professional, friendly and welcoming
Highly recommend MoAfrika Tours. They take the hassle out of planning your trips and ensure you are well taken care of.

Amazing 5 days safari. I really suggest Suricata Safaris. Special thanks to our guide Jimmy, a true expert of animals and Tanzania culture!

Disappointing experience
We booked a 2 day safari tour and stayed at Ivory Tree Lodge. The rooms, food and open game drives provided by the lodge were excellent. The transfers from Johannesburg provided by MoAfrika Tours did not meet our expectations. Although we advised we would be travelling with 4 suitcases, no provisions had been made on the outbound transfer so the suitcases needed to be stacked in the aisle. The outbound transfer was a disgrace. Just before checking out of the lodge we received an email, offering us a choice between being picked up at the arranged time 11:30 AM) and spending time in Pilanesberg on a closed game drive. Or spending time in the lodge and being picked up at 2:00 PM. We chose the first option but ended up spending 3 hours in the reception area for our transfer. The people at MoAfrika Tours kept telling us they did not know why the driver did not pick us up but he would be there within 10 minutes. He arrived a little before 2 PM and was met by a group of angry people (7 in total) who had been waiting since 11 AM. And 2 people who had chosen the second option, to be picked up at 2. The driver told us that the people of MoAfrica were well aware that he would not be able to pick us up before 2PM as he was in the park woth another group of people. So obviously it had been the intention of MoAfrika from the start to pick us up at 2. They just were not honest about the situation and kept us waiting for 3 hours without food as they had us believe the drivers would be there any minute. To make things worse, the driver was supposed to wait until 3 PM to pick up 3 more people. After we refused to wait any longer (5 of us had flights to catch), he decided to leave the other 3 behind and drove us to the airport. The driver was not to blame for this mess up, solely the people at MoAfrika office.
After returning home, we sent a complaint to MoAfrika, but we have not received a reply or apologies.
I would not recommend using MoAfrika Tours, just book the lodge yourself, nearly every lodge and hotel offers transfers. No need to book through MoAfrika or any other operator.
