Lovely Trip
This safari company based in Arusha were responsible for our 8 day safari. Our guide made this an unforgettable experience. The safari was made to measure, we had a wonderful camping trip in Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyare with a visit to lake Eyasi halfway our tour with a wonderful experience with the Hazabe and Datoga tribe.
CARLOS was flexible, polite, safe driver, good host, very knowledgeable, and great to hangout with! He explained a lot about hunts, the animals, area. And he is genuinely nice! Great talks at night at the camp :) He made sure we had the best experience, kept checking in. Found great locations for lunch
If you want a small company, locally owned (i believe its important that local people benefit from int'l tourism) but very well equipped: get in touch with El Classical Adventures

Excellent knowledge of area, nature and culture
We got Seoganetseng Boeng's (Sox) contact through a friend, who had been on an expedition with him before. Sox worked out a tour for us according to our ideas. The communication was very professional.
We went on a guided self drive tour. Two nights wilderness camp in the Moremi Game Reserve. We stayed at a campsite close to a so called Hippo pool. No one around except us, Sox and his team. We went on different game drives and a boot tour along with Sox, at the camp his two helpers gave their best to make our stay at the site comfortable.
Since we traveled with our grandson (10) the aspect of security was important to us. In several situations we where glad to have an experienced guide. We really do recommend Reflect Africa Expedition.
To us it was also important to travel with a Botswana - based organisation.
BEYOND OUR EXPECTATIONS
Our driver and guide Oscar did an outstanding job on our week-long adventure in Serengeti and beyond. We were shooting a television piece on elephants and their collision with villages around their migration paths. It required us to go to some very far-flung places well beyond the national parks. James was always willing to meet our needs, no matter the time of day. When it came to spotting wildlife, he really had an eagle eye and encyclopedic knowledge. Can't wait to come back, this time for vacation, not for work.

The best tour operator i had ever meet in the field
El Classical Adventures team helped us plan a trip that fit within our budget and still allowed us to do all the things we'd dreamed about. We felt like we were in a movie. The food was delicious, the guides were our instant friends, and we learned so much about the wildlife and safari culture. 10/10, would go again.

The tour operator was charismatic and welcoming.
Our tour guide made the long drive to Pilanesberg from Johannesburg informative, entertaining and as comfortable as possible. He allowed everyone to introduce themselves to break the ice and the entire drive was filled with smiles and laughter. Proper expectations were always set and I was informed of what was happening at all times. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Excellent sources of knowledge, patient with the kids and perfect!
Alika Africa is a wonderful company to work with from beginning to end! The communication, feedback and support for planning this trip was invaluable! They service and value for the money of the places they selected for us to stay and visit was perfect! I can not recommend them enough. You get local tours and tour guides on the ground and have an experienced person state side that knows what you want, how to make it happen and loves the continent as it is her own!
