Amazing Tour of Victoria Falls with Kuda
We did an amazing day tour of the Victoria Falls last July. Kuda, our tour guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. He picked us up, took us to the tour, showed us around, gave us tips to avoid crowds, and went out of his way afterwards to help us. We needed to buy rafting shoes and he not only recommended a place, but he actually took us despite it not being part of the tour. I can't recommend Kuda as a tour guide enough! Thank you for an amazing experience, Kuda!

We took a 2 day tour to Tarangire and Ngorongoro. Amazing even for a 4 year old kid.
Beside Safari, we also booked a city tour and Swaleh helped us see some nice parts and local areas around Arusha.
Also he was helping us a lot with shopping to be prepared for cold in Ngorongoro.
Thank you guys you are doing an amazing job.
We will for sure recommend you to all our friends coming to Tanzania.

Great Kilimanjaro experience
We had a day hiking trip to Marangu hut on Kilimanjaro and it was a great experience. Everything was good organised, the premeeting, the drive, the hike, the lunch and the aftermeeting. Saladini was a great guide. Thank you Robert and Saladini for this experience.

A journey like in a fairy tale - instructive, full of excitement and enchanting moments
Our driver Kassim picked us up on time in the morning, to start the trip from Victoria Lake to Kibale Forest. First positive surprises - sufficient drinking water was provided, the car was comfortable and spacious. From the first moment we felt optimally being cared through Kassims friendly and engaging manner. 6 hours ride went by in no time at all. We had an interesting conversation about the country and its people. Our needs were well catered for.
The first accomodation, Turaco Treetops, was a brilliant highlight - extraordinary friendliness, aesthetics and excellend food in overwhelming nature. The chimpanzee trekking, in a group of 8 people, was an unforgettable hike, criss - cross through the rainforest, up close on the trail of the chimpanzee. A competent, admirable guide there too, with whom we felt absolutely safe.
Queen Elisabeth National Park, Katara Lodge - unbelievable view into the distance, beautiful garden and swimmingpool. Sovereign game drives with Kassim, a skillfull driver, who took care about everything very respectfully and reliable. The boat safari was another highlight, full of great animal motifs.
To crown the event - Lake Mutanda, nature like a magical fairytale world.
It was a brilliant, colourful journey and a wonderful time!

Well organised, amazing and professional.
We decided to book our honeymoon with Safari Soles Tours and would do that again. We had an amazing trip and really enjoyed the safari. During our trip we were able to see many animals and learn a lot about them from our driver Isaac. The accommodations were also nice and comfortable. It is definitely something else to sleep in the middle of the Serengeti. The day trip to Materuni waterfall as well as the coffee tour was informative and impressive.
The whole trip was really well organised ans we can definitely recommend it!

Shinzelle Safaris is a reliable tour operator who provided all promised services extremely well.
We booked the "4-Day Essential Greater Kruger Park and Panoramic Tour Combo" for a party of 5 people. Our liaison person at Shinzelle Safaris was Ms. Danielle Smith, who throughout the planning of the trip was very supportive and efficient. She also regularly checked in on us by email and phone/text message during our safari trip, to make sure that we were OKI and address any problems, which we did not have.
Shinzelle put us up at the “Leopard’s Lair Bush Lodge” in Hoedspruit. The early morning transfer from Johannesburg Oliver Tambo International Airport (JNB) to the lodge in Hoedspruit was very well organized and smooth. The driver, André, was very dependable and friendly, and he drove very safely. The lodge where we stayed at was very comfortable, and clean; and the staff very friendly and attentive.
On the afternoon of our arrival in Hoedspruit the first day, we were taken on our first evening safari tour in a private game reserve, very close to the lodge—complete with sunset drinks in the park—which we enjoyed very much.
Early the next morning, we set off on a full-day safari trip to the main Kruger National Park, which was an absolute treat! Our tour guide and driver, Goodman, was a very responsible driver and great safari guide, and he made every effort to show, and explain to, us all the accessible places and animals. We were very lucky to see a lot of great animals, large and small, including hoards of elephants, giraffes, impalas, zebras, leopards, lions, crocodiles, hippos, beautiful birds, and many more. Goodman definitely made our Kruger safari trip a special experience for all of us to remember, and we commend him highly to any and all of Shinzelle’s guests.
On the third day, we headed off on a delightful tour of nature, including gorges, waterfalls, and spectacular views of mountain and valley landscapes, as part of the Blyde River Canyon tour, in the capable hands of Vincent.
On the fourth day, after a delightful early morning safari tour guided by Helmo, again in the adjacent private game reserve, and a hearty breakfast at the lodge, we were picked up around 11 am, and driven back to JNB, where we arrived around 5 pm.
Looking back, all our excursions and trips were conducted by professional and courteous drivers and guides, and everything was completed very much in line with the advertised plan and schedule, as promised by Shinzelle Safaris. All I can say is: "Well done and keep up the good work!"

James is THE BEST!
James went over and beyond to make our 9 day safari experience the most incredible vacation ever! His attention to detail and constant check-ins to make sure everyone was having a good time was so appreciated. We learned so much about Africa, the people, wildlife conservation and had quite a few laughs along the way! If you’re looking for a memorable safari vacation James and Jemu Expeditions is the way to go! Will definitely be back!
