What a Wonderful, Stress-Free Trip to Africa!
Darren and Kate at Compass Odyssey made our trip to Africa such a seamless, wonderful experience! We emailed them a list of our must-see activities, and they made it happen! We saw hyenas stealing impala meat from lions and laughing about it, elephants at their watering hole from our chalet at Senalala, a giraffe being chased by a lion (the giraffe won), two hippos having a disagreement, and so many other amazing animals and the beautiful Victoria Falls. It isn’t like the US, where you go to a national park and may or may not see animals. In Africa, you WILL see animals every trip out! We saw the Big Five within our first two days. We went on about a dozen game drives (on water and land) and flew to several different places within Africa, and Compass Odyssey made it all happen so perfectly. We had NO flight issues whatsoever. My friend had booked a trip with Compass Odyssey about ten years ago and loved it, so we decided to give them a try, and we are so glad we did! I wish there was a Darren and Kate in every country I want to visit! We were very impressed with them and can’t begin to express how happy we were with the trip they planned for us!

Unforgettable Safari in Kenya
An Unforgettable Safari with Antonio Safaris – Big 5, Ugly 5, and Flawless Organization!
We recently returned from a safari with Antonio Safaris in Kenya, and the entire experience was absolute perfection.
From start to finish, the booking process was completely seamless. The Antonio Safaris team was responsive, transparent, and incredibly professional, handling every detail so we didn't have to worry about a thing.
The highlight of the trip, however, was our game drives. Our guide was extraordinarily experienced. His tracking skills and knowledge of the parks were unreal—he knew exactly where to go and consistently spotted wildlife before anyone else. Thanks to his sharp eyes and expertise, we were lucky enough to check off both Kenya’s Big 5 (Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Rhino, and Buffalo) and the Ugly 5 (Hyena, Marabou Stork, Vulture, Warthog, and Wildebeest)!
If you are looking for a reliable, professional, and top-tier safari operator in Kenya, I cannot recommend Antonio Safaris highly enough. Thank you to the whole team for an adventure of a lifetime!

Smooth and safe!
We had a super smooth ride with driver Tiyani. The bus was comfortable, clean and well ventilated. Tiyani was very professional, respectful, and drives super safely you would not notice the length of the ride.

Perfect
We had a great experience with this tour from start to finish.
Communication was excellent. They always responded very quickly whenever we contacted them during the booking process, so we never had to worry about waiting for a reply or being unsure about anything.
The coordination between the accommodation and our tour guide was also seamless. Everything was well organized, and we were able to enjoy the entire trip comfortably without having to worry about any arrangements.
Our driver was also very dedicated to finding the best spots to see wildlife, including some of the rarer animals. He made a real effort to give us the best possible safari experience.
Overall, everything was handled very smoothly, and we could simply relax and enjoy the safari without any stress.

He is calm and friendly
Very meaningful trip while explore, see SA in real time, all the nature along the road
Convenient transport from Johannesburg to Hoedspruit
Tiyani was a safe and effective driver, the views between Johannesburg and Hoedspruit were varied. The pick ups were punctual and rest stops were well timed - at one you can see ostriches/rhino/kudu

Well organised, safe and great fun
A great trip, we went to Hoedspirit and did the 3 day safari option. We saw the big five, slept in a lovely hotel and were shuttled around seamlessly (from our hotel in Joburg and dropped back at Tambo).
Lovely people - especially Nyiko - and a trip to remember!
