Amazing experience!
We loved our experience in Tanzania. We dos a 4 day safari: Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Tarangire. Everything was really well organized, with perfect timings and our guide, Peter, was so kind, gentle and explained us a lot about the animals and also about the country. The lodges were all very good too (and the food also!). We thank Peter for everything, he really made this amazona experience a perfect one. We just regret not staying longer. Asante sana!

Good safari, average company.
We chose migration venture based on a limited budget, as it was one of the more reasonably priced company’s. We had a great time on Safari and made lasting memories. We will say our experience with the company was not as good as we experienced with other company’s on our trip to Tanzania. Communication when arranging the safari was difficult and slow. Replies often did not answer the questions asked, and the details were missing! They tried to charge for airport collection, when it turned out the guides were coming from Moshi all along, this was disappointing. They also tried to charge a 5% surcharge to the over all bill until challenged. We were told a very high tipping rate for the guide also. They did not ask about dietary requirements before the trip and then had to sort on the morning. If these details could be improved the experience would be better! Thanks to our guide Octavian we still had an amazing Safari seeing lots of animals in the parks! (It may be worth considering generally especially for shorter trips like ours that Lake Manyara is sadly experiencing flooding and therefore the wildlife is effected in the area).

Fantastic Safari adventure
This was my first time to Kenya, and trying to select a safari was initially very intimidating, but I am so glad I selected Savannah Woods Safari for my first experience! Lucy was extremely responsive, and the whole trip was so simple, from pickup to drop-off. My guide, Alvin, was knowledgeable, patient, and made the experience unforgettable. He made sure that I was able to see everything Masai Mara had to offer in my 3-day safari. I stayed at Mara Sopa lodge, and it was wonderful. The cabins were peaceful, the hospitality was amazing, and the food was delicious, perfect for relaxing after a long game drive. I do wish I had paid attention to other reviewers who mentioned having enough cash, as it was difficult to judge how much to bring, and there was definitely a perception as a Westerner that I should have endless cash supplies. That said, I would highly recommend Savannah Woods safaris for anyone traveling to Kenya, and definitely ask for Alvin to be your guide!

A top notch experience from start to finish
I found Nature Travel Namibia recommended in the Rough Guide and, after reviewing their website, got in touch with them about our trip. From start to finish they were incredibly responsive, helpful and professional.
Whilst we had a pretty good idea of what we wanted to do, Petra really helped us hone the trip and offered some great adaptations to our plan, particularly the recommend for Jackalberry camp in the Caprivi Strip. She then handled all the booking and organisation of transport, accommodation and activities, both for Namibia and Botswana, following up with an extremely detailed itinerary document covering all possible information we could need.
Everything ran flawlessly at each stage of the trip - not one issue across a whole month, though even if there were I wouldn't have been concerned, as Petra and her colleagues respond so swiftly to any query or contact.
A particular shout out goes to their choice of car rental company - Warthog 4x4. They were excellent, taking us through everything we might need to know about the vehicle in great detail, and making us feel utterly confident about heading out on our own. NTN clearly check their suppliers and people they recommend, which is of great reassurance too.
Overall, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Indeed, I already recommended them to several people we met whilst on our trip! An excellent company providing great service.

Amazing, fantastic, and incredible
Let's view Tanzania is the best! We did the 6 -days Marangu route with Dennis. Amazing experience! The food was awesome, and the whole team was so kind. Everybody wanted us to reach the top - and we did! :) Great team efforts. Communication is good, they keep there promises and the tents/camping gear looked good. Highly recommended! We also did a 4-day safari with Let's view Tanzania, it’s very convenient that they do both. Never forget this experience in my life

Amazing and unforgettable
Our travel consultant Mwanje is really helpful and always answers our questions quickly and patiently. Our tour guide and driver Jimmy is absolutely amazing! He seems to have a GPS in his brain and can always help us find many amazing wild animals. He is also a good driver who can help you get the best position to enjoy the view! Through Jimmy, we heard a lot of stories about different animals which were really interesting and made our journey really fun! We will choose Image travel next time we come to Kenya!
They are amazing and well organised!
Very supportive, reliable and client oriented
We booked a 7 days private safari tour with Zydee Africa Tours and Safaris (Maasai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha and Amboseli). Throughout the process of requesting for a quote and booking, Jackie and her team were very helpful and patiently answered all our questions. We were warmly welcomed by Jackie and her colleague at the airport when we arrived and escorted to our car. The tour was well organised..the accomodation, the itinerary, the activities all went as planned. We appreciate our guide Francis! He was knowledgeable, experienced and very professional. We highly recommend this operator!

Nice and uncomplicated
We’ve only had a one-day trip. It was pretty good and uncomplicated. Our ranger knew how to drive very well and made sure that we got to see multiple animals.

Very professional and expert operator
My safari with Nungunungu was nothing short of exceptional. From the timely arrival of the guide to the overall experience we completed our safari with only one thing in mind, we have to do it again.
Nungunungu went over and beyond to ensure our comfort and that we got what we were looking for. As a photographer, I couldn't have asked for anything more. We were also thoroughly impressed by how well the guide was farmiliar with the flora and fauna and the landscape in general. They knew where to go at exactly the right time. Call it luck if you may but I strongly believe it was their expertise of the bush that made our trip what it was. Would 100% recommend!

Pembury Tours is the absolute best!
We booked a two week tour through southern Africa including Cape Town, safari lodges in South Africa, Victoria Falls and Chobe National park in Botswana. We have traveled a lot in the past but this trip was incredible and the trip of a lifetime! Heidi at Pembury was extremely helpful in planning the trip, gave great advice and suggestions and was extremely responsive throughout the planning stages as well as during the trip. The accommodations suggested were excellent and all the third party tour companies and transportation services were professional and top notch. We felt the value for the money very was good.
