Review about Sabi Sand Game Reserve by Emily Ward
Sabi Sand seems to have a really high density of animals without a lot of other vehicles. It's so nice to be able to go off-road in pursuit of the big 5, and I think that that makes for better sightings of things like leopards on the move who aren't going to stay next to the roads. I also like the open-air vehicles and the fact that there were only ever a max of 3-4 vehicles at a sighting. Our traverse area was relatively small but it didn't feel limiting. Being able to leave the vehicle for a sundowner was very nice and one of the highlights of the experience.

Review about Kruger National Park by Emily Ward
Kruger is enormous, and the size of the park and its openness to all kinds of vehicles makes for more potential animal sightings. It also makes for more potential traffic jams. Sightings rely on animals being close to the roads, but there is more area available to traverse. This is helpful in the case of hippo sightings; we could go right to a watering hole where there are usually hippos. Some of the more "exciting" sightings are a little frustrating if there are a bunch of cars. The landscape and natural beauty in the park is phenomenal though. The rock formations and landscape are very pretty.

Five of the most amazing days of my life!
This trip was incredible! I came into it with low expectations, as I didn't want to be disappointed by being focused on the big five. The wildlife blew me away though, and I was pleasantly surprised with multiple leopard sightings. I'd heard that February isn't a great time to visit because the summer foliage makes it harder to see animals and they aren't concentrated at watering holes, but we saw lots of animals and the bonus of it being summer is that there were so many babies! The weather treated us well too. It was very hot during the day but we didn't get rained on (luckily; it rained like crazy and flooded many rivers in Kruger right after we left). The accommodations Tydon Safari Camp were rustic but fine. At Umkumbe they were phenomenal. I would 100% book this trip again.

good experience
We enjoyed most aspects of the trip. Would have liked to spend a little more time when we saw a male lion, but driver was not interested.

Prefessional guides, best lodges and nice people
Sino Africa arranged best guides to us. Professional and make jokes during our safari. We could not imagine that our guide could even sing! Amazing! About our lodges, they selected the best lodges for us to view animals easily. We saw big 5 Special 4 ( total 5), and we enjoyed Ballon Safari. Sino Africa called us everyday to make sure we are alright. Thanks to the team and we would recommend Sino Africa to any body!

Wonderful experience!
Difficult to describe in a few words this incredible safari. Excellent organisation ...thak you Uhuru Travel agency. We've seen impalas, hippos, zebras, elephants, crocodile, buffalos, king lion and many other animals in the middle of a beautiful nature. Fantastic the location at Bastian Camp.
We asked to modify our tour with final destination Kiberashi instead of Dar...this gave us the opportunity to discover more about this wonderful country (Tanzania) out from touristic circuits.
Really special thanks to our guide, Mr. HENDRICK N MINJALE ...great guide, fantastic driver (cannot imagine how long and in which difficult road conditions he drove), ALWAYS helpful and open to our request. Hendrick, thank you for your fantastic human appoach, we are very grateful.

We are coming for you Sino Africa Safari
We visited Africa four years back, and we absolutely travel again with Sino Africa for sure! Their company is professional, nice people, rich experience. I didn't feel like booking a safari with an agent, but feel like visiting an old friend in Kenya. My husband and I fully tailor-made our safari and exceeded all our expectations, best memories in my life! Trust me, pick them!

An unforgettable Ugandan adventure with Ben!
From beginning to end our trip to Uganda organised by Homestead Tours was spectacular. We went for our honeymoon and it really was a trip of a lifetime. Our guide, Ben, did everything he could to ensure our holiday was comfortable, fun and memorable. Nothing we asked was too much for him. Ben has amazing knowledge of Ugandan wildlife, geography, history, conservation- the list is endless! When you travel with Ben it is the same as having an expert with you! Our highlight has to be gorilla trekking in Mgahinga National Park. Ben recommend Mgahinga as he knew that one of our priorities was to capture the experience with photographs of the gorillas and here the visibility is great as the undergrowth is not so dense. We spent an hour with the gorillas watching them unobstructed and in awe! We wouldn’t change a thing about our trip except that it would be longer!
