Relaxed and Experienced
We had a fantastic experience seing Tarangire-Ngorongoro-Serengeti-Manyara. Peter, our guide willingly shared interesting insights on the way, and was a really pleaseant person to spend these days with. We saw all the big five except for leopard, and a lot of the animals were only a couple of meter away. Our chef Innocent also provided us good meals throughout our tour, and was also a very nice person to spend time with.
The communication with Focus in Africa went really smooth. Although we were unused to do reservations and bookings via Whatsapp, they always delivered what was agreed. Keep in mind that for a budget safari, one have to have realistic expectations regarding accommodation. We slept in tents for two nights, but this also allowed for wildlife experiences during night time. We think that the Focus in Africa delivered exceptional value for their price.

Amazing Safari with Suricata!
What an unbelievable experience we had with Suricata safari!! Special thanks to our tour guide Mandella who made our experience very special with his dedication and knowledge of the Tanzanian wildlife.
The food was delicious and prepared for us on a daily basis opposite to what we saw in other tours that they were having lunch boxes with sandwiches.
I would fully recommend to book your safari with the for the quality of the service and the options to adapt to your needs that they provide. It is a small company compared to the huge tour operators and they are growing thanks to doing things the right way. 5 stars for them!

Stress Free Adventure in Tanzania
Going with Gecko Adventures made our vacation stress free. They organized for everything from the moment we landed in Julius Nyerere Airport - transport, accommodations, park fees, permits, meals and other activities like the boat ride in Rufuji and the guided walking tour. Issa, our guide was knowledgeable about Selous and the best spots to find wildlife, great views and water birds. I would be lying if I said that this trip was not full of adventure and special encounters with wildlife, because we every turn of the game drives revealed amazing views.
Accommodations were nice, well serviced and comfortable. Food was also delightful.
If we are ever to return to Tanzania I will definitely be using Gecko Adventures

Competent, reliable and Felixable
Daniel of Oride tours and travel, informed us precisely competently and always very promptly during then organization of the safari,
Amos then guided us through uganda in alond cruiser 4x4. We experienced him as avery reliable, professional guide who always. Knew comprehensively about the country, its people life and history. He also knew alot about nature and great life. The lodges suggested and booked by Oride tour and travels also surprised us very positively, very good service, extremely friendly people, good rooms and last but not least the fine food convinced us. The highlights of gorilla and chimpanzees trekking will remain in our memories forever sure wil recommend Oride tours and travel for organizing your safari to uganda

A trustworthy and quick-responding operator.
I did the 7-day- safari and I am more than satisfied. The communication was always fast and uncomplicated. The price-performance ratio is very good. Our safari guide (Kikitu) is a very nice guy and has always tried very hard to show us all the animals and explained a lot. I would do this safari again anytime and chose Jocky as an tour operator.

very good before and during tour
Excellent value for money especially as a solo traveller. Accommodation in Kruger was excellent (bumpy roads but otherwise no problems!) food and hosts were wonderful. Communication between myself and company (thank you Zelda) was also wonderful. Can highly recommend booking with Mzansi. Thanks again for a perfect trip.

THE ABSOLUTE BEST CREW EVER!!!
Words cannot express our utmost satisfaction and gratitude for the exceptional service provided by the Kilitwende team during our recent trip. Our guides, Bobbie, Peter, and Daniel, went above and beyond to ensure that our experience was truly memorable.
From the moment we embarked on our journey, it was evident that we were in capable hands. Bobbie, Peter, and Daniel together with the whole porter team demonstrated an impressive knowledge and history of the route and quickly gained our trust with their professionalism and expertise. They not only guided us safely but also took the time to educate us about the surrounding environment, adding a valuable educational element to our adventure - Peter especially.
The team of porters deserves special recognition for their outstanding commitment and dedication. Their effort in ensuring our comfort and wellbeing was truly commendable. The delicious 2-3 course breakfasts, lunches, and dinners they prepared were a delightful surprise, adding an extra touch of luxury to our trek. Additionally, the small things like provision of hot water bottles at night proved to be a thoughtful gesture that made our restful sleep possible amidst the challenging conditions.
What truly stood out to us was the boundless enthusiasm and sense of humor displayed by the whole Kilitwende team. Their ability to keep us motivated and entertained throughout the journey was exemplary. Even during the toughest parts of the trek, they managed to infuse our adventure with laughter and genuine camaraderie, making the experience more enjoyable and memorable.
Lastly, we were incredibly fortunate to have had favorable weather conditions during our summit in July. It is a testament to the careful planning and expertise of your team that we were blessed with such perfect weather. It allowed us to fully appreciate the unparalleled beauty of the Lemosho route and create lifelong memories.
Once again, I would like to extend my sincerest gratitude to the entire Kilitwende team for their exceptional service. Their passion, skills, and commitment to providing an unforgettable experience are truly commendable. I will not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone seeking an unforgettable adventure on Mount Kilimanjaro.
Thank you for an incredible journey,
