Friendly, knowledgeable, attentive and committed to providing the best for us.
We booked onto a 3 day safari in Selous Game Reserve which consisted of a full day game drive on day 1; a bush walk with local Masai and herbalist doctor, a local village tour with a local guide and a sunset river Safari on day 2; and a Masai village visit where we learnt about the village life and were able to join in some the activities on day 3. All of our drivers were very punctual and friendly and our guides were fantastic! So many brilliant stories from their lives here in Tanzania and facts about the different elements of life and nature here. Our accommodation was good. There had been an issue with our room before we arrived which rendered it out of action but they put us into another room which had been newly built and was clean, had a ceiling fan and good amenities including a constant supply of bottled water. As it was newly built there were a few teething problems but the staff were very quick to put anything right. The accommodation had a clean pool and food was good and plentiful.
Game drive day 1: Our guide Mr Martino was absolutely brilliant! He made us feel at ease the whole time and made sure we always had a good supply of water and there were bottles of soda too to drink. His knowledge on the animals was excellent and there weren’t any questions he wasn’t able to answer. The way the driver and Mr Martino found the animals in the vast park was incredibly impressive and we saw so many of the animals, up close and the whole experience is one we will remember forever.
Day 2: All guides on this day were brilliant. And we enjoyed each of the parts for different reasons. Our highlight was the river Safari where we got to enjoy sunset on the beach of the river, watching the hippos bathing and playing.
Day 3: the Masai visit was truly brilliant. The chief of the village took us around and immersed us into the village life for a few hours.
Overall, a visit we’ll never forget. Thank you so much!

Great staff and Great experience!!
I had a group of 11 friends and family.
We had a great time with Viva in Kruger NP.
We saw all of the Big 5 plus many others.
The staff was extremely nice, and we even made some new friends. Patti is the best to work with, setting up the trip? We loved the whole experience, and this will not be our last visit!!

Very supportive and always responsive
It was a very well organized trip for us. Thanks to Hyrax, we had absolutely no trouble in any bookings or payments. Irene especially makes a good agent for any queries at any time during the entire day.
Also, the safari was very well organized by a good guide who knew about the animals and also the best areas for spotting.

Thank you for all, hope to be back soon.

Highly recommend this tour group and can't wait for our next adventure together!
I had a wonderful time with Worthwhile Africa Safaris touring Murchison Falls on my last visit to Uganda. The tour included everything: transport to and from my hotel in Fort Portal, overnight accommodation with meals, a boat ride & walking tour of the falls, plus a safari ride. Reasonable prices, great tour, an absolutely "Worthwhile" experience for sure! Where are we going next? Can't wait to return to Uganda!

superb, everything is good
Personally recommended by the IELTS teacher: The price of this hotel is reasonable, the speed of replying to emails is also fast, and the hotel given is also relatively good. Our guide Allen has first-class driving skills and is full of thoughtful details: he compared the parking of other vehicles, the only thing that made it easier for us to store our luggage, and specially radioed other drivers to take pictures of us when watching cheetahs

Best Travel Experience Ever!
Giltedge and Nikki Theron helped us navigate years of Covid delays to provide us with an amazing two week stay. The accommodations and food were excellent. The food was probably too good! We loved every guide and every tour and safari drive. We met so many kind and patient people on this trip. Transfers were flawless and Nikki kept in touch throughout the entire trip.
I can't recommend Giltedge and Nikki highly enough!

Efficient, Kind and caring! Such a pleasure to book through.
We had a lovely trip. We were picked up on time in a lovely spacious vehicle. Driven safely to our destination and booked into a Greta place in Kruger.
Thank you so much for the great service! We will definitely be booking again.

Wrapped up an "outstandingly organized" trip to Zanzibar / Serengeti in Tanzania
Our family of 4 just wrapped up a 2-week trip to Tanzania, including 5 days in Zanzibar and 7 days criss-crossing Serengeti National Park. What a trip of a lifetime it turned out to be, one that we will reminisce over for years to come. ALL THANKS TO ROB MORLEY AND HIS STAFF AT TAILORMADE AFRICA. We settled on Rob organizing this trip after having scouted at least 10 other agencies across the U.S., the U.K. and in Africa. The reason we picked Rob and Tailormade was he showed a genuine concern and a full-throated ability to tailor the trip so it was customized for us, not an itinerary he would want us to pursue because it was easy to organize. From the first dialogue we had with Rob until when our trip actually materialized, Rob displayed extreme flexibility as we worked through re-schedules, firstly due to COVID and yet again due to a sports injury one of my kids endured. Every accommodation, every stop, every meal plan was meticulously picked, so it worked wonderfully for us. Rob and his team were always available to answer questions, propose alternatives when we needed those, and work with us as we got ready for the trip (vaccinations, visa, what kind of clothes to carry etc.). Our trip turned out to be hugely successful for our family - what a fascinating place, what abundance of wild-life, what diversity in landscape, and what superlative a service every hotel, lodge, campsite Tailormade booked for us!! I am certainly working with Rob in coming years as and when we are ready to do our 2nd trip to Africa!
