Amazing, worry-free unforgettable honeymoon!
We had an amazing two weeks honeymoon in South Africa and Mauritius. Few telephone calls with Wayfairer Travel and all trip was tailored specifically for us, providing the real expertise and tips on where better to stay / why / planning our activities and preparing very detailed plan. First we had an amazing safari experience at Timbavati park.
Then we had luxury relaxing holiday sat St. Regis Mauritius. Accommodation was superb and the food was fantastic!
Both experiences were outstanding and exceeded expectations. Everything about that trip was excactly as described in the travel package that was prepared for us. We would highly recommend this tour agency for anyone planning African safari adventures or luxury honeymoon experience.

Best experience Ever!
I had an excellent experience climbing Machame route for 7 days in January 2015 with Martha and Orongai Safaris. I contacted Martha and found him very Helpful with everything and also very flexible as I was unsure of my climbing dates. She told me about his company.
Her price was very competitive; I found other companies more expensive who did not offer any additional services.
She Helped me with renting gear for my climb, such as a Down Jacket, warm summit trousers and poles. I considered buying these before my trip but it is expensive gear. In the end I am glad I rented it as the quality was very good.
I liked the little things that Orongai Safaris offered; they picked me up from the bus station in Arusha and brought me straight to my hotel (which was very comfortable). The bus stop in Arusha is a little crazy so you will be glad of this!
Also on the trip you are provided with a portable toilet so you
don't have to use the toilet at the campsite. This is a luxury you will only realise when you are 4000m up on the mountain, trust me!
My guide was Andrew who I got on very well with. His English was perfect and, as I was the only climber in the group, we got on very well. She Helped me in every way She could and made the trip very enjoyable.
All meals were excellent quality. The porters could not have been more Helpful.
Only one thing to be aware of is the cost of tipping, especially if you are a solo climber like me. Martha gave me recommendations and I tried to match them as best I could, but tips are very expensive so make sure you include these in your budget.
I had trouble getting down from the mountain due to altitude sickness, where I had trouble walking down from the summit. Andrew my guide did a great job in assisting me to lower altitude and gave me oxygen to ensure I was ok. He did a brilliant job.
Overall my experience with Martha and Orongai Safaris was 10 out of 10. You will be glad you booked with them.
Feel free to get in touch if you need any more details about Orongai Safaris or about the climb.
Thank you Martha.

Amazing weekend!
Really quick at replying to all my emails before the trip.
Raymond was a great driver! He was very knowledgable and really went out of his way to make sure we saw as many animals as possible (we were super lucky and saw all the Big 5 in the first 4 hours of our game drive)!

Great safari experience with Savannah!
We (a couple) had a great experience wiht Savannah Explorers!
We started with 7 days of private safari in the central and north parks and then other 8 days by relaxing on Pemba island.
The organization has been really good, the guide very keen to satisfy our needs, Roberto and his staff very professional and ready to assist and take care of you!
We appreciated the accomodations, expecially the Mbugani Tended camps, both the one in central Serengeti and the migration one in the north of Serengeti, surrounded by wild nature!!
We would recommend everybody to book a safari with Savannah Explorers ....we are already thinking about another safari with Savannah :)

Our Seven Wonders safari for two, was wonderfully adapted to our needs and interests.
Communications from the start and over many thousands of kilometres, we are based in Australia, were great.
We called into the office in Arusha the day before we started our safari and as a consequence were able to express our individual interests ( big cats and birds). This resulted in us having a brand new copy of Birds of East Africa on the trip. We were also able to change a cultural day to an extra day in the Serengeti.
I had no preconceived expectations but was thrilled with every day. Definitely, to do the areas (Lakes Natron and Manyara, Ngorogoro Crater and Serengeti) justice, you need at least 7 days.
We were just 2 single women and had 2 Seven Wonders staff to look after us- Isak, our chef, and Hozza our guide and driver. They were the best!
It was a visual feast - of animals, birds and events.
We tried to stay away from large numbers of people-taking the paths less travelled,we were served our meals at the Serengeti camp at a table outside our tent, we didn't have the regular, environmentally-unfriendly picnic lunch boxes and in general it was so much fun. Awesome! Thank you Seven Wonders.

Amazing 11 day safari- well organized and uncomplicated
Grassrootz offers taylor made tours in Uganda. After considering different options that Sander planned for us (all of them were very detailed and well visualized), we decided for a 11 day safari incl. gorilla trekking. Before the trip we got a very well plan of our trip and useful information.
Thanks to grassrootz, we had 11 amazing days in Uganda. We did not need to worry about anything. Everything was well organized and the accommodations were well chosen. All this was crowed by our very skilled personal guide/ driver David. Thanks a lot!

Amazing and unforgettable moment
Serengeti National Park represents the African imaginary. It is the best place to experience the African wildlife spirit. It was a wonderful moment.
