Germany to SouthAfrica
South Africa was a place I wanted to go to for such a long time. I finally managed to go there this January and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The tours were exceptionally informative and very well organised. I truly appreciate SA for its diversity, culture and history.
Many thanks to Socioolite for showing me around and taking good care of me! Thanks again and stay well!!

Comprehensive tour services ... well looked after!
Overall, a good tour. Our tour guide, Last, was fantastic and looked after us very well indeed, ensuring that any of our questions were answered and requests fulfilled. The overall package was simple, with lots of gaps in the itinerary, but provided what we had requested. The Dzimbabwe Lodge was basic but clean and acceptable (breakfast was very basic with limited choices or portions), the trip to Victoria Falls was brilliant, as was the zipline and Boma Dinner & Drum Show. Prices for drinks were extortionate at the latter, and while we knew that drinks were excluded at our other Dinner Night at Baines Restaurant, it was really disappointing to be told that we could 'order any food from the menu', but having chosen a starter, main course and dessert each, we were subsequently charged for 2 x starter and 2 x dessert, at a cost of $33 on top of our drinks! Only the main course was covered, and this didn't seem right when we had paid so much up front for the tour. All in All though, it was an unforgettable once in a lifetime trip, and we had a wonderful 3 days in Victoria Falls.

A Truly Wonderful Experience
This was truly an unforgettable experience!
I prefer to spend my money on local businesses, and these guys didn’t not disappoint.
The trip was expertly organized and I was able to see everything I wanted to!
My guide Zack was extremely knowledgeable and funny.
If you’re on the fence, trust that this experience is worth the money and effort.
I spend 4 full days out doing game drives, but you could probably get away with 3.

Amazing, Unique and unforgettable
Fantastic adventure. We saw a wide variety of diffrent animals and lots of animals. Serengeti and Ngorongorocrater were the highlights. Our guide was especially good at spotting the wild animals and got us up close. The diffrent lodges we stayed at were all unique. The staff at big cats safari have been incredibly helpful. I can defintely recommend Africa Big Cats Safari.

Wonderful one week safari with Israel
Having met Israel on my first trip to Tanzania two years ago and having stayed in close contact ever since, there was no question that if I ever brought my family on a safari in Tanzania, it would only be with him and his company. From the very first idea to the final day, this safari was absolutely perfect. The entire process was smooth, highly professional, and reliable, and everything was taken care of with great attention to detail.
The food was excellent – we enjoyed a warm lunch every day, plenty of drinks throughout the day, and most importantly: coffee. The accommodations were carefully selected, comfortable, and very clean, and they contributed greatly to the overall quality of the experience.
What truly made this safari exceptional, however, was Israel himself. His passion, dedication, and genuine commitment to giving us the best possible experience were evident every single day. He went above and beyond to help us see as much wildlife as possible, and thanks to his knowledge, experience, and instinct for being in the right place at the right time, we were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five.
On a personal level, Israel is an extraordinary person. His calm and patient nature, combined with his incredible knowledge and his willingness to answer every question—no matter how small—made our safari truly special. We learned so much about Tanzania’s wildlife, nature, national parks, culture, and the different tribes through him. I can proudly say that our friendship deepened even further during the time we spent together, which was filled with meaningful conversations and plenty of laughter.
My family and I felt safe, relaxed, and in the very best hands at all times. I would 100% recommend booking a safari with Israel to anyone looking for a high-quality, unforgettable, and deeply personal experience. I can only say Shukran, because the safari, our time in Tanzania, and Israel himself will forever hold a very special place in my heart.

Once-in-a-Lifetime Safari — Incredible Experience with John & Top Selected Tours
We truly cannot say enough good things about our 4-day safari with John and Top Select. This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and it exceeded every expectation we had.
From the very beginning, communication was prompt, clear, and professional, which immediately put us at ease. Once the trip started, John took exceptional care of us. He was incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and determined to make sure we experienced everything we hoped for — and more. Thanks to him, we were able to see all of the Big Five, along with countless other unforgettable wildlife moments that we never could have planned on our own.
Every accommodation along the way was excellent, with comfortable stays, great food, and warm, welcoming staff. The entire trip was seamless and stress-free — we didn’t encounter a single problem. Everything was handled professionally from start to finish, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy the experience.
What truly set this safari apart, though, was John himself. He is knowledgeable, calm, and an absolute pleasure to travel with. His easygoing, genuine hakuna matata attitude made long days on the road feel effortless and fun, and his passion for what he does really shows.
On top of all of this, the safari was very reasonably priced for the level of care, experience, and quality we received. The value was outstanding.
If you are considering a safari, do yourself a favor and book with Top Select and John. You will be in excellent hands, and you will come away with memories you’ll carry for the rest of your life

Made our dreams come true!
Can not express enough what a magical day we had on safari with Plex Africa in Selous. From the beginning they were really affordable and the communication was excellent which is why we chose Plex Africa. We booked a private Safari for 4 Adults which included return to our hotel. From the moment we were picked up from our hotel we knew we were in good hands. Special thanks to Starboy for driving us to the airport safely. A short 50 minute flight and we arrived on the air strip greeted by our tour guide Shukran and driver Maneno. These guys were absolutely fantastic a credit to your company. Shukran is so very knowledgeable! there is nothing he didn’t know about the ‘big 5’. He taught us so much and we saw far more than we expected to including the Hyenas that haven’t been seen for quite some time we were told. Maneno knew the best spots around the park to see all the animals and mammals. They were a great team and we were so grateful to them both. Thank you Plex Africa Safaris for a truly memorable experience we will never ever forget!!
