Great Safari with so many encounter with animals
Communication was really fast and good - All questions got answered very fast
4 Day Safari with the Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater was perfekt for us. It was interessting to see the differente landscape. And the best: We have seen all the animals which are possible. :-)
The guide gave us a lot of informations about the animals. He gave us the time to oberve the animals (not only watch, photo and go on...) This was really nice!
The cook was also really good (the food was so tastiness) and helpfull.
We were and are very satisfied and happy with Shemeji-Tour

Tailer Made turned out to be, and feld like Super Fit!
Although we were told by friends about the amazing quality of Tailer Made Safaris, they managed to surprise us and over-delevered to our expectations. Communications, support all allong the journey. Super.
Aspecially the Travelling-package delevered up-front to your house. Fantastic. The book in there was the real tourguide.
The quality and service they promise, they deliver!

Tanzania - Serengeti & Ngorongoro Travel
5 of my friends and myself went to Serengeti and Ngorongoro. In Ngorongoro we stayed in Ndutu Camping and at Safari Lodge. Ngorongoro - we stayed in Acacia camping and Serena Lodge. Our experience with Peter Mc Tours & Travels was very enjoyable. He did his best to put us wherever we wanted. Travel was very comfortable. It was season for birthing. We did see the wilder beast baby birthing while running with its group. Amazing. His price quote was very affordable compare to others. We will select Peter for future travels too.

Great safari
We loved our safari, we saw the big fives and all other small or bigs animals. Besides the animals the Masai Mara is very beautiful.
The Ashnil camp recommended by Beacon Safari is absolutely wonderful, we never thought we could find that in middle of the reserve.
The driver really finds the best place to show us everything, with a total respect of the animals and of the reserve.
What we have really appreciated of Beacon Safari is the flexibility of the driver, we have customized the program following his recommendations and our wishes, and this is very important as it is not possible to anticipate everything. We ended up, on top of the Masai Mara, to visit the lake naivasha and to have a tour in Nairobi.

Unforgettable experience and fantastic trip
Our family (parents with two teenagers) went on a tour in South Africa. We planned to visit the North East, incl. Johannesburg, Panorama Route, Kruger and Swaziland in the first week and the Cape region in the second week. We had the ambition to experience as much as possible within 13 days. Andrea, our tour organizator, planned a great itinerary to accommodate our wishes; she even arranged for a pleasant surprise that delighted us: she booked us in the African Café in Cape Town for the last evening of our tour; a fantastic way to close our jouney in SA!
We started the tour through Johannesburg/Soweto, Panorama Route, Kruger and Swaziland for 6,5 days. Patrick, our guide, is a very engaged guy who knows a lot about the fauna, flora and the traditions of the region; his passion was contagious. The scenery on the Panorama Route is magnificent -the least I can think of to express the beauty of this region. Kruger was an epic. We were so lucky, because we saw much more beyond the „big five“ thanks to Patricks enquiries and willingness to chase after the rangers‘ tips whenever they spotted „rare“ animals (leopards, lions). It’s also a paradise for bird lovers. Swaziland has a great mountaneous scenary... Even though we weren’t lucky with the weather on our last day in Swaziland and couldn’t carry on with our farm visit as planned, Patrick elaborated a plan B and took us on a Johannesburg exploratory day trip. Patrick knows Johannesburg very well and showed us areas we’d never go to if it weren’t with him. Patrick deviated from the „official“ program to make us learn and see more (Pretoria, Apartheid Museum, a fantastic Swazi choir performance), and nicely cared for our well being throughout our journey. At the end, we felt like he was a member of our family.
Then we flew to Cape Town and started touring the region with Derek: Cape Town and the Garden Route within 6 days. The Garden Route tour was a collection of beautiful sceneries. The Karoo landscape with the passes we drove through were fascinating. Knysna, Mossel bay, Vic bay and Conga Caves are absolute gems. We spent one night in an Ostrich farm in Oudtshoorn and experienced a superb sunset and a great quietness. We visited the wine country; adults tasted wine, kids tasted chocolate! We were in the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Point, and the Boulders with the Penguins, and Kirstenbosch. - I could go on and on.
Derek was adventuresome and was willing to deviate from the route to accommodate the different wishes/tastes of the whole family. He took us to climb a light house, walk barefoot on a surfer beach and swim in a tide pool… He even made us chase the ISS station in the starry sky of Knysna! Derek is like the encyclopaedia of the Western Cape! He is amazing.
Overall: what we got exceeded our expectations. We saw much more of South Africa then we could have imagined in just 12 days.
An unforgettable experience and a fantastic trip that we’ll actively recommend to our friends.

Super!
We booked our 4-days safari three month before via e-mail. Emma was very helpful and answered to all our questions. We visited Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It was great, like a movie! We saw thousands of animals and big 5 of course!
Everything was well organized (transfers, program, accommodations).
Our driver and guide Fredy was friendly and cheerful all the time. We enjoyed her companionship.
Accommodations was comfortable especially Tortilis tented camp and decent meals.
We are very happy for this experience.
This is memory forever!
I recommend it to my friends.

An exhilarating smooth experience and completely thought through.
Everything from the planning to the holiday itself was seamless. Extremely helpful and communicative team...the support and organization was beyond expectations even throughout the trip. The Safari itself was excellent...clean and safe and very knowledgeable guides.

Gorilla link tours was incredibly accommodating and supportive in organizing a customized trip.
Gorilla link tours staff was very helpful throughout the entire process. Not only did they customize a trip itinerary to our exact needs but they very quickly responded to every question I had (and I had many questions throughout). The tour itself was well organized and made every thing very easy. Our hotels were beautiful, staff kind and attentive and our guide made sure everything went smoothly throughout the trip. I highly recommend gorilla link tours

Believe what you read in the reviews
What all the reviewers have said matches our experience exactly. Knowledgeable and committed driver/guide. Clear and responsive communications throughout. And "above and beyond" when issues arose (missed flight connection, delayed luggage, communication from home). Every aspect of planning and execution was superlative, and built around our interests and budget.
