Wonderful experience
We experienced a wonderful 8 day Safari (based on Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Great Migration, Ngorongoro offer) with Tansania Roadside Expeditions.
Paul was very helpful, friendly and fast when communicating during preparation of the trip. He was very open to adapt and extend the itinerary to make this Safari very individual and meeting our wishes.
Then, upon arrival to the end, everything went smooth and to our full satisfaction,
Ezekiel was not only a very knowledgable guide who knew how to "find" the animals but also became a friend to us on this trip.
Thanks to Paul and Ezekiel for having made this trip possible !
We can highly reccomend this company !!

First a travel agent, now a friend! Thank you Sandra!
We were supposed to travel in July 2020, however of course due to Covid our trip had to be postponed for two years! Whilst this has been difficult, it has given us the pleasure of dealing with Sandra at Traipsing Africa for two years now and we would now consider her a friend.
From the moment we sent our initial enquiry, Sandra has been absolutely incredible. Full of knowledge and experience, and super keen to make our trip as memorable as possible. She handled our covid cancellations and rebookings with ease, and has always responded to any queries quickly on WhatsApp which is super convenient.
Overall, Traipsing put their customers at the forefront of their business and I am so pleased we chose to book our trip with them. We can't wait to finally get away to SA next year!

An exhilarating experience exceeding expectations!
Deborah (Zimbabwe) and Elizabeth (South Africa) met in Maun for a long-talked about adventure - 10 days visiting the Okavango Delta, Moremi, Khwai, Makgadikgadi pan, and Tsodilo Hills, all under the expert guidance of Philimon and his Walking Stick Safari company. Philimon was professional, organised and thoughtful, with a wide knowledge of flora, fauna, and the terrain.
First up was the peaceful mokoro trip to Boro island where our poler, Dreamer took us for interesting and informative mokoro rides and bush walks. On our return to the mainland Philimon drove us to Planet Baobab, for a surreal night sleeping under the stars in the Makgadikgadi salt pans. This was followed by 4 days at wonderful camping sites in Moremi and Khwai community trust, with exhilarating game drives, rewarded with amazing sights, not just of the large but also small creatures and more than 100 bird species, many new to us. Philimon enthusiastically shared his knowledge of animals, birds and plants and he went to great lengths to find specials. Our last stop was Tsodilo Hills, visiting some of the many rock paintings, accompanied by a snapshot of the cultural history from the good local guide – plus climbing to the highest point in Botswana. At all our camps we were very well looked after by chef Joe and Gift, who seamlessly set up the mobile camp sites. They produced delicious meals on the camp fire, including an unexpected chocolate cake on discovering that Deborah was celebrating her birthday. It was a life-time great experience and we are already discussing a future trip to the Chobe area.

High quality trip to Namibia thanks to Lark Journeys
Namibia is an astonishing country that we could fully enjoy and discover thanks to very professional preparations and good care of Lark Journeys. The 3 weeks self drive through the Namibian nature and safari parks was taken care of down to the last detail. Lodges were well chosen and of high quality, Greg and Claire are very nice people who are always ready and standby for their guests. Absolutely recommended and worth repeating!

Never visited another place with such service like this.
Me, Andreas and friends visited Uganda in September, and after our Safari we proved that it is really the Pearl of Africa since it has it all. Azas Safaris organized our full safari from the Airport to the agreed destinations, and we all was so happy and satisfied about what we got back. We like to thanks all the people who helped us, and we will soon be back as soon as its possible for us.

Excellent tour organiser and guide, Fantastic Experience
Staying cooped up at home due to the current pandemic had left me roaring for an adventure. So, when the borders opened up again, I booked for Kenya. Get in touch with my wild side and douse my eyes with the uninhibited wilderness of wonderful Africa.
And thanks to my lucky stars, I found the perfect partner in crime, Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris. Alfred is a godsend as he took care of my itinerary quite well and paired me with Philip. All I had to tell him was my kinks, and that was it. It was quite an exhilarating experience and Philip helped keep my energy at peak.
The wildebeests were herding together and migrating. The Big 5 games were such a rarity. Taking a break in the wilderness and camping under the stars while listening to the sweet music of the beast cries was phenomenal.
I have heard my friends mention the guides being robot-like, but again, thanks to my lucky stars, that I found the perfect match. You can never go wrong if you plan with Alfred. I highly recommend them. Cheers!

An unforgettable experience
African Polecat Safari arranged a magnificent 6 day safari trip for us, with some of the best accommodations in Tarangire, Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater.
But, what made this trip truly special was our driver Chedi. We had a lot of fun with him, he taught us a lot about Tanzanian and Maasai culture, and we even learned some basic Swahili along the way.
As the cherry on the cake Chedi seems to have a 6th sense for spotting wildlife and always has a story to tell! We have seen the big 5, many (hunting) cheetahs, cereals, and many others!
I would recommend anyone booking with African Polecat Safaris to ask for Chedi, he will make your trip one you will never forget no matter where you stay

4-Day Serengeti, Ngorongoro & Tarangire Safari
I had contacted Bryson before our vacation. He answered all of my questions ad hoc and we stayed in contact for weeks. When we reached Tanzania after a few weeks of vacation, we were able to spontaneously book a tour. Since no group tour for 3 days was possible due to illness, Bryson quickly organized a comparable tour at Meru Slopes for us. He also took care of a transfer from Moshi to Arusha. Bryson is very organized and takes care of everything in a timely manner. In the evening we met at the hotel and were even able to pay for the tour with a card. As I said, he referred us to Meru Slopes. A very good agency and a great 4-day tour.
When in Tanzania, contact Bryson.
