From very first Email exchange till last one: clear, fast, friendly, proffesional.
Thank you Manapools.com, thank you Ant. As in the title above, all perfect. Booking Mana Pools via ZimParks, only those know who tried it from oversees. Close to impossible. With Manapools.com and Ant's great help I managed to do it. Fast and without any problems. Ant helped me a lot also by answering some side questions, not necessary related to the business we did. Thank you. I will definitely use manapools.com again and strongly advise to get in touch with them in case of Zimbabwe planning. Mirek.

Some people have it naturaly, every body likes them even when they make little mistakes ,you forget about it because you envoy very much there company....It is the case of Twaha .We had such a WONDRFUL time with him.So much laught .Reading all those goods reviews I was wondering if he could keep up to it.So he did trying is best to see the most animals we could see,convencing his colleges to keep cherching for the big 5 even if they were ready to go back to the lodge. Try to get the best seats for us on the cruise . On the road he will makes sure to take us to nice restaurants so we wouldn't get sick from the food.
We were the first one to get to the leopards ,the lions , having time to spend some time taking pictures before the others jeeps arrived.We had chalanging him all the 15 days about his good score in the reviews and how much we should give him teasing him, never gots upset good sence of humour.He loves is country and enjoy to have you discorver it with him .Twaha is only 34 he owns is cie and he is a leader, all the others guides know him, beying so friendly, same thing with the staff of the lodges so it can be very helpful.My husband just love is vintage big Toyota land cruise ......
It was a pleasure to work with Teresa for our itinary ,she always anwered promtly to the numerous emails I sended her.

Perfect tour, well organised and executed, fabulous days
The 9-day safari in a 4x4 land cruiser for us 3 was well organised and fully reliably executed. Many thanks, Patricia and Charles - you made this an unforgettable and gorgeous experience.
During the 9 days travelling to 6 national parks we saw so many different landscapes, sceneries and animald with lots of moments far beyond our expectations. Further we learned a lot about Kenya, its culture and economics while travelling throughout the country. Overall the Safari was fabulous. The most admired camps were Kandili (at the Masai Mara conservancy - it was so pleasant and authentic) and the Satao Camp in Tsavo East. They topped the other good ones.
So: For us a tour with Natural World Kenya Safaris is clearly recommendable.

An excellent tour operator who provided a very good service and strived to make your trip memorable
I was introduced to Seven by Far by a hotel reservation company. From the first email they showed their enthusiasm and commitment to accommodate our requirements . There were many mails back and forth acceding to our requests. We were inquiring about minute details about the hotels. transport and game drives. They patiently and efficiently convinced me removing any doubts. With their flexibility, approach and patience I was fully convinced that they were the ideal operator to organize our tour.
From being met on arrival by sylvestor the young energetic CEO of the company up until our departure from Kenya all arrangements from transport to hotels to game park drives to guides were handled with star class efficiency. Special mention must be made about the very new Landcruiser they provided us for our transport and game drives. Our energetic guide Peter was exemplary and he was all out to run the extra mile to give us the best game drives . All in all whole team including Sylvestor made every effort to make our trip memorable.In conclusion we wish to state Seven by Far is a very professional travel company who will make sure your tour with them is one of the best ever!

Private game tour on Everest day YOU want
After sending an e-mail for getting Some information about a safari we immediately get a reply back from Rwanda Eco Companies and Safaries with a detailed programm with all the tours for the requested 3 days: a game drive during the day, a boat tour and a night game drive. What have we been lucky to see a lot of animals with these 3 tours. At night we even saw a leopard! This is not usual...
The night tour must be done by the ranger from Akagera National Park. But even then our guide Valens was there to see whether everything was in time.
The safari was arranged on the days we requested. We did not have much time because of the work of my husband in Kigali.
The manager Reginal picked us up at the AirPort and brougt us to the hotel.
The next morning at 8 o’clock sharp Valens, our guide for the next 3 days, picked us up at the hotel.
We had a nice stay at Akagera game Lodge. All the food was included, we only had to pay our drinks. Well organized!
After 3 days we went back to our hotel and just 5 minutes before Arrival Fred came in the car. He went to our hotel with us where we had an after Sales talk whether everything was fine. They are really interested in us. Well organized! We have recommanded Rwanda Eco Companies to some of our business relations already: custom made safari, what you want and when will be arranged specially for you!

Superb and professional service, making a Namibian experience truly amazing!
The tour operator is a consummate professional. All the arrangements for housing, travel, logistics, etc. were handled with an attention to detail. Because of the care given to the careful planning of the tour, we had no concerns about anything except enjoying the splendid scenery and wildlife of Namibia. A major bonus is that the tour operator is so knowledgable about the history, culture and wildlife of Namibia. It was very enjoyable to experience this tour with him. If you want to have an incredible, mountain-top experience in Namibia, I encourage you to make arrangments with Evolution Travel and Tours.

Great Safari - budget friendly
My girlfriend & I did a 3 night/4 day tour of Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorogoro crater.
It was the perfect amount of time to cover a range of habitats and see all the wildlife on show.
Fig tree were the most competitively priced safari we found, we expected there to be trade off in quality here.. but there wasn't. We stayed in the same campsites & followed the same routes as most of the premium priced operators. The food was good, and our guide excellent & knowledgeable. Most importantly we got up close with all the wildlife.
I found John very helpful in the entire booking process. He accommodated our request to upgrade to a lodge for one night (which I would recommend as its an amazing experience) and generally the safari far exceeded our expectations.
I was slightly apprehensive paying a sizeable deposit in advance, however this is standard requirement for most safaris and its definitely worth it for having the peace of mind knowing its booked in advance.
One small criticism is that the details of the itinerary moved slightly over time, this did not make much difference in the greater scheme of things… but if you are they type that gets hung up on this keep an open mind to minor changes.
I would have no problem recommending John & Fig Tree tours, and would use them again next time I safari in Tanzania!

Everything we asked for
Communication by email was timely and complete before the trip. The information was very helpful, laying out the details of the trip exactly as it happened. The accommodations were delightful, the staffs were friendly and helpful. There was communication during the trip that showed they the company had been in touch with the camps, checking to see if we had had any problems and that we were meeting our safari expectations. A fantastic trip!
