The best tour company for Africa
Africa Tour Adventure were simply outstanding in arranging our 8 day tour in Rwanda including Gorilla Safari. They provide amazing service especially when we had to re-schedule the whole tour last minute due to cancelled flights. Nicholas was able to re-organise the itinerary in a day and we were ready to discover Rwanda when we landed in Kigali.
We had a life changing Gorilla trekking experience!!
We experienced Rwanda thanks to our amazing guide (Julius Tinkamayire) who was very knowledgeable. Julius was constantly striving to make our trip better and would advise us where we could change our plans to improve the experience. He's the type of guide you could rely on in any situation.
Look forward to visiting Rwanda again in the future and exploring more of Rwanda with our guide Julius.

Best Safari experience in Kenya
Myself and my partner had the most amazing safari experience.
Our trip started in Masai Mara and went through all the main Kenyan national parks (Amboseli, Naivasha, Tsavo East and Tsavo West) travelling towards the coast to finally reach Diani Beach (right place to relax after 8 days of safari).
Fina organized every detail so that we could stay in the best resorts and enjoy the experience stress-free. Apart from spending the nights right inside the reserves, making the commuting time very short, the resorts were elegant and unique, merging perfectly with the surroundings. Everything was planned just for the two of us and according to our needs and preferences. The hotel service was always impeccable and Fina was constantly checking on us to make sure that all was running smoothly.
David was just the perfect guide for this trip. He was able to spot all sort of animals (we spot 4 of the big five in one day!) at any time and from very far away. He was able to bring us in the right spot at the right time, furthermore he explained a lot about animals and wildlife. Travelling with him was one of our favourite aspect of the safari as he also thought us a lot about Kenyan history and culture.
We could not be more satisfied and cannot wait to organize another trip with them!

What an amazing Safari with both personal and very professional guiding!
I highly recommend traveling with Wild Planet Safari!
We travelled as a family with our two sons (7 and 10 years old) to Kruger park and Blyde canyon and it is certainly an adventure we will never forget!
Everything was so well organized, with effort put into many details. Like the coffee and rusks we were served (hot chocolate for the kids) while waiting for the gates to the park to open in the early morning!
We saw lots and lots of animals, and our guide Ryan was very knowledgable. He could answer all kinds of questions and give us insights to the lives and behaviours of the animals!
When some bad weather came in with some fog on our last day, Ryan managed to plan around it so that we could still make the most of the foggy hours and then see the wonderful Blyde Canyon when things cleared up. The view was stunning!
The food was really good too, with new favourites for both kids and adults!
All in all, both kids and adults were very happy with the whole trip!
(We also got some extra guiding from Ryan's son. Our kids were very happy to find a new friend in South Africa!)

Great Safari with Super-Benson
Wow what a great safari, not only did we get to see the Big 5, we saw the Big 9 and my son's list of 15 favourite animals! All made possible by the skills and unrelenting endeavour of our driver and guide Benson. This was my second safari in Kenya and by far the best - with some magical moments including seeing a new-born baby elephant, a leopard dragging its kill up a tree and a early morning sighting of a family of Cheetahs. You don't see these kind of things by randomly driving around in a 4x4, it took the skills of a knowledgeable and determined guide, who made every effort to make our experience a magical one.
I'd highly recommend using Into Adventure Safaris, great choice of hotels, nothing was too much and great value for money.

Amazing and Caring! We would definitely book with them again
It was one of the best trips ever for me. We booked the safari on short notice so I wasn’t really sure in advance but the Lion King Staff was so helpful and responsive from the very beginning - they made it so easy and comfortable for us the relax. Besides our wonderful guide Ozzy, the amazing wildlife and nature we saw I want to mentioned two things especially: Lion King adventures is caring about sustainability! We were one of the few people who always had picnic for lunch with delicious food in reusable containers. No waste/garbage!!! Instead of lunchboxes that are usually thrown away afterwards..I loved that aspect, since it contributes essentially to sustaining the parks as they are. And also: we often took alternative routes away from the crowd and were able to see the animals by ourselves with much more peace. This of course was due to Ozzys knowledge…
THANK YOU lion King adventures for making our trip unforgettable and amazing…

Compass Odyssey will exceed all of your expectations!!
I am so glad that I was recommended to Compass Odyssey, operated by Darren and Kate. I had an idea of what type of trip I wanted to go on and an idea of where I wanted to go but didn’t know how to put the pieces together. When I got in touch with Darren and Kate, they gave me multiple itinerary options and recommendations and once I was able to narrow it down, they were able to put the puzzle pieces together perfectly for me! I ended up going on a trip similar to what I had in mind but with so much more!!! I would never have been able to do it on my own. I was able to go to four different countries in two weeks and able to have so many different types of experiences! I met some amazing people and will have these memories for a a lifetime! While on safari, I saw so much more wildlife than I thought I would have! It was the best safari experience I could have had! The boat safari in chobe might have been the highlight for me though! Being in the water and that close to the elephants was an experience I will never forget!! I stayed at four different lodges this hour my trip and they were all spot on! I would go back to any of them in a heartbeat! Darren and Kate were there whenever I needed them and were so responsive! I can’t wait until I can ho back to Africa and have them help me with another trip. If you book with Compass Odyssey, you will not regret it! And you’ll probably get more out of your trip than what you even thought you wanted :)

The tour itself is very nice but be careful with the payment
Basically, the tour is quite well organised and planned and everything worked out. We saw a lot of the country and even more animals. It was really nice.
But be careful with the payment. The organisation tries to take money out of your pockets wherever possible. It starts with a very bad exchange rate and allegedly high bank fees that you have to pay additionally to the tour operator and then again afterwards to the bank. In addition, you often have to pay for two days' admission to the park, even though you only spent one day in the park. However, you do not get the money back.
In addition, they are very uncooperative and unfriendly when you ask them questions about this, put you under a lot of pressure and immediately threaten you with the police if you try to defend yourself.
The tour itself is highly recommended, as long as you pay attention to the payment.
