Very relyable and competent
We booked a 7-day safari with "explore & travel africa". It was simply fantastic and everything worked wonderfully. Michelle helped us a lot with the planning and catered to our wishes. We wanted simpler accommodation and Mboma Island Camp was exactly what we had in mind. Michelle sent us some suggestions with very detailed information so that we could really choose what we liked. We then booked 2 nights in a more luxurious lodge so that we could also get to know this side, it was also very nice at "Little Sabel" and the guide was also very competent, but not as familiar as at Mboma Island Camp. We also had a very competent guide at Mboma Island Camp and we saw and observed a lot of animals at both places. Michelle even helped us to hire a cheap hire car for our trip from Durban to Cape Town and when we had some problems with the rental company we were able to call her and she spoke to him and took care of everything. We were very grateful. We would definitely recommend explore & travel africa.

Helped to give us the best experience ever in Namibia.
Secret Namibia were personal, helpful, professional and a pleasure to deal with. From the very first 1:1 zoom call, Johan understood what we were looking for. He designed an amazing tour with accommodation he knew and recommended. He was open to slight changes and provided great insights. On arrival, Pieter was waiting for us with a welcome pack and spotless new SUV.
The accommodation was all excellent, with daily distance to drive not too bad. Some of the venues were truly spectacular.
Highlights of the trip were:
Climbing Big Daddy Sand dune, Deadvlei, Sandwich Harbour tour, Sea Kayaking where we had a close encounter with thousands of Cape Fur Seals, Dolphins and a Humpback Whale, Desert Elephant in Damaraland and Leopard/Rhino in Okanjima.
Best of all Namibia's friendly, welcoming people, and their amazing country.
Thank you Secret Namibia for helping us have the most amazing adventure.

Reliable and personalized safari!
Our safari experience, that covered a 4 day tour across the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire, was very easy to plan. Flexibility in schedule adjustments of the safari due to our flight to Zanzibar was seamlessly facilitated by Eric and Zee. Throughout the entire process, from pre-trip communication to post-tour follow-up, the service maintained a standard of excellence and efficiency.
Our driver, Dulla, was an amazing guide. He is very friendly and truly made our experience on the safari really special! We also got really lucky with a cheetah sighting in the Serengeti and a close proximity of a majestic lion near our vehicle in the Ngorongoro.
We also stayed in Moyo tented camp for two nights and enjoyed the most wonderful staff and talented chef! Every meal was so tasty along with the packed lunches on during our safari
Due to dulla’s expertise and the seamless coordination orchestrated by Eric and Zee, I wholeheartedly recommend Msangai Adventure to anyone contemplating a safari in Tanzania.
Asante sana❤️

Absolutely amazing
We spent a couple of days with William and the whole experience was absolutely amazing! Somehow William was able to spot lions from hundred meters away with his incredible eyesight, without whom we would definitely have missed a ton of animals. Apparently he truly loves animals, and he is super knowledgeable about them. It might have been a normal leisure trip chasing the back of animals but William has made it a scientific tour for me somehow. He fulfilled all our viewing dreams (seeing a lion please, seeing a male lion please, seeing a cheetah please, seeing a cheetah on the tree please, etc). I think this was my once in a lifetime travel experience so far.

An expert in wildlife, nature and culture with a wonderful personality
The African Polecat Safari changed my life!This experience is the most incredible adventure in every way. Our guide, Manfried is the best you can find. He is a true expert and professional. Manfried’s knowledge of wildlife, nature, and culture is amazing. There was not a question he couldn’t answer! His personality is also so wonderful that it felt like saying goodbye to a dear friend.
In the privacy of our own vehicle, we enjoyed so many animals, all day every day. My favorite sighting included a pride of lions teaching their cubs to feed on a recently hunted water buffalo. Luxury accommodations were wonderful. The Jungle Pearl was like a sanctuary on earth, and I’ll never forget the sunrise and elephant just outside my door at the Heritage Luxury Tented Camp. Thank you to all the Maasai people I met working and living in Tanzania. Thank you to Mow and Manfried and Thank you African Polecat Safaris. (I hope Sean and I see you again someday!)This was an adventure that I will never forget.

Kenyan hospitality stands out and shows at every step!
The Masai Mara experience is just fantastic; the sweeping plains and their expanse, the vast herd of animals and their diversity adds to the quality of the game viewing and the far reaching views make spotting easy. Our highlights were multiple sightings of pride of lions, group of elephants, cheetah with cubs, a tower of atleast a dozen giraffes; amongst the hippos, crocodiles, hyenas, countless zebras, deers, gazelles, antelopes & cape buffaloes.
To sum up - the tour planning wa fantastic, overall organisation and coordination of the trip was outstanding. Our tour guide was extremely cooperative and took care of our needs at every step. His knowledge of every detail of the tour, planning and ability to curate to the best possible viewing made us derive much more from the safari. We had a memorable experience; an adventure that will etch into our memory forever - with Axis Africa Tours managing our expectations superbly.

Culture, adventure, beautiful landscapes, welcoming people: that's South Africa!
South Africa is wonderful. Exceeded my expectations. It is a country full of natural beauty, with a very rich culture and extremely welcoming people. I didn't feel unsafe at any point. I loved visiting its parks and reserves, its museums, learning a little more about its history and its great icons. I had the chance to visit Johannesburg, Cape Town, the wine region, Kruger Park, the panorama route. I stayed in the country for 21 days and found it very little. I will be back!!!
