A masterpiece of organisation, choice of safari lodges and camps, and personal attention.
Off2Africa came to our rescue when we found ourselves without safari boookings at the last minute. Within a week we had an exceptional 10-day safari booked in Zimbabwe and Botswana during the peak season. With their experience and knowledge Off2Africa found us exquisite camps and lodges in the places we wanted to go within our budget, and organised all the logistics. We were so impressed.
At all times Off2Africa stayed in touch with us giving us options and making sure we were all right.
The tours themselves were totally exceptional; the quality of the camps, the guides, the organisation .....
We have no hesitation in highly recommending them.

Incredible safari
Amazing safari. The Masai Mara in amazing how much life there is. Every where you look there is something and you camp right in the middle of it. I've done two other safaris in Africa. Another one in Kenya and one in Bostwanna/Zim.

Absolutely top notch in every way
In June/July 2019 we spent a week in Uganda following 2 weeks in Kenya. We had a strong idea of what we wanted to do from guidebooks and online research: flying from Nairobi to Entebbe Uganda and from there to Kasese for chimp trekking in Kibale Nat’l Park and community and swamp walks in nearby Bigodi, a drive down through Queen Elizabeth Nat’l Park with a boat trip and stay on the Kazinga Channel, then further south through the Ishasha Sector to see tree climbing lions and to Buhoma for a gorilla trek in Bwindi Impenetrable Nat’l Park, then a flight from Kihihi back to Entebbe and home.
I emailed our wish list to half a dozen companies for feedback and estimates. Most of them responded with their stock 5 or 6 day itineraries that had little to do with our interests and research. No thanks!
Wyclef of Gorillas and Beyond was responsive and had the best price so we went with him and we could not have made a better choice - we had an absolutely gobsmacking visit. Everything went smoothly and we loved it all: the flights, lodging, guides, tours, and road trips with Wyclef.
We found Wyclef to be creative, knowledgeable, organized, compassionate, passionate about his country, and really great company. I don't have sufficient words to recommend him highly enough - he's that great. Happy trails!

An unforgettable and amazing experience!
We had a lovely time on safari, exploring the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire National Park. We were lucky and saw the big 5, including lots of other animals! Our driver was knowledgeable and friendly, and so was John, who we booked with.
One small negative was miscommunication with our driver, who suggested some other activities we could partake in, such as visiting the Maasai and having walking tour through a local village. Unfortunately we were quoted the wrong price for the Maasai, and then we were unaware of the cost of the walking tour (other people in our safari enquired and so we went along with it). We felt both were expensive and had we known the full details, we probably would not have chosen to do them. Our driver apologised and offered to make up the rest of the payment for the walking tour.
We would say just be clear on expectations and prices.
Apart from this, we would wholeheartedly recommend going on safari with this company, who were very friendly and made sure we were satisfied.

Spectacular tour through 3 of Tanzania’s amazing national parks with a knowledgeable guide.
From start to finish was an amazing adventure made all the better by guide Francis who was knowledgeable and friendly and immediately on meeting put everyone at ease. He was endlessly patient when asked to stop all the time for photos and enquired all the time we were happy and enjoying our tour. It was my first trip to Africa and first Safari but very pleased I had booked the tour it was everything and more that I was hoping to see and Francis was an amazing guide.

My experience with Kibokoland was just magic as it was far beyond my expectations.
From the very beginning my experience with Kibokoland was far beyond excellent, as people at Kibokoland were on point as to every aspect of the adventure. Once on the ground, thanks to Kibokoland's know how and professionalism, my safari was an unforgettable experience.

Excellent!!
The service from Tanzania Explorer before and during the trip was simply amazing.
The communication with Sondre who planned our tailor made trip. The staff in DES.
Our wonderful guide Sam, who took us to Safari in Mikumi, Udzungwa and Ruaha. Our guides at the turquoise waters of Zanzibar.
Tanzania Explorer was there all the way, and made this a trip with memories we'll never forget. Highly recommended.

Self-drive wildlife tour of KwaZuluNatal
Truly, genuinely excellent - and I promise you I am difficult to please - I guess I give 5 stars at most once every hundred reviews. They took on board and understood exactly what we wanted as a family and organised a trip that fitted this perfectly with a variety of experiences and accommodation, all of them excellent. The information provided was 100% accurate, useful and informative. I wish I could use them for all my travel anywhere in the world.
