Great scenery, great guides, great lodges.
The highlight of our trip was the combination of guide/driver in each lodge we stayed in. Guides are trained at College for 3 years and have exceptional knowledge of all aspects of the park they are assigned to. They know not only a lot of information about the animals, but also the birds, trees and history of the park. Their ability to find game is nothing less than amazing. They are also very pleasant company.
In July the weather was good , the accomodation in Foxes Lodges was excellent and the Selous and Ruaha provided spectacular scenery and a sense that you were almost alone in the bush. Both parks are sparsely populated with game so the scenery was important to making each drive special.

Peaceful, quite, thrilling and pleasant.
Tanzania in one of the top places to go for Safari. since the country is doing it's best to protect and preserve the nature. the weather was very pleasant during the time I visited. Accommodation can vary according to your preference and budget, but overall it is clean and comfortable , considering the environment you are in , resources are very limited and expensive in Africa. Food was good in all the places we stayed in, and again it vary from a hotel to another. But, overall it is clean an sufficient. The Transportation provided to us by the Safari company was good and suitable for riding the Safari bumpy roads. The Guid (Zaburi) was punctual , and Knowledgeable about the Wilde animals and its habitat. The Tour operator ( Afrishare Trekking & Safaris) delivered exactly what was in the plan, in fact they provided additional items that were not in the package ,for Free.

Wildlife spotting at its best
We had a great time in South Africa, me and my wife. It was her first time in Africa and we both enjoyed the wildlife there. Such an amazing trip in Kruger Park, saw the Big 5, did the Bush walk which is an amazing experience. The people are so amazing, welcoming and outgoing. And the landscape beautiful despite the fact that it was still winter, dry season. Highly recommended

Sunday is the best
We recently were on safari with Sunday as our guide. He is full of positive energy, very accommodating, and extremely knowledgeable. He has a university degree in wildlife tourism and has extensive knowledge of animals and habitats of Tanzania. He is excellent at spotting wildlife. While we were with him, many times, other guides would come to him for information on hard to find animals. He has ultimate respect for nature and the environment. Beyond being a great guide, Sunday is also a very interesting and intelligent person and seemed to known and be adored by people all over Tanzania. A safari with Sunday will be something you will never forget. Highest recommendation.

Top notch safari tour provider!
The 12 days safari tour organized by Exciting Africa Holidays exceeded our expectations. The safari tour was an amazing adventure especially in the Maasai Mara (Kenya) and Serengeti National Park (Tanzania). We had good experiences seeing the various wildlife. There was no hitch with regard to the arrangements right from the airport pick up on day one to the final day. The team lead by Albert was polite, accommodating and knowledgeable as far as wildlife is concerned. For example, they were easily able to locate the wildlife and also provide useful information Hygiene standards in the lodges were also good. We experienced the best of Kenya and Tanzania wildlife. Thus, we recommend the company to those who are keen on experiencing top notch safari tour!

Best vacation ever! Encourage everyone to experience Africa in their lifetime.
Karina Atkinson is the best! Working afar (US) was never an issue. She booked us the best vacation we have ever experienced. This was our 30 year wedding anniversary treat and it did not disappoint.
Service, communication was top notch. We did not have one issue on our 15 day trip! Says a lot about Karina and Safari Online. Encourage everyone wanting to see Africa and pending safaris, you can not go wrong.

Hard to fault
My wife and I booked a 16 night safari in Botswana, Zambia, and Zimbabwe through Liquid Giraffe. It was the holiday of a lifetime - every camp was different and offered new sights and experiences. The arrangements and transfers wer seamless. We would recommend Glen and Liquid Giraffe without hesitation to anyone planning an African Safari.

Perfect
This company did a wonderful job making all of the logistical arrangements for our safari. Leonora is friendly and was also very helpful with aspects of our trip outside of the safari portion itself. I recommend this company without any reservations.

Trip of a lifetime
I was very satisfied with Safari 2 Gorilla Tours. Already when planning the trip, they were very helpful and adapted the tour to my wishes. I travelled solo and read a lot of good reviews about them before booking the tour with them and I was not disappointed. Martin my guide was great. There was a bit of a mix up with some of the bookings for the accommodations but he always managed to solve them quickly and smoothly. I learned a lot about the people, the different cultures, tribes and animals of Ruanda and Uganda, the two countries we visited. Martin always made sure that I was comfortable and that I had a good time during the trip. I definitely would recommend them if you want to explore Uganda and see the amazing diversity in animals and landscapes this country has to offer. It was honestly a trip of a lifetime (during which I fell in love with Uganda).

Amazing safari in Tanzania
I was worried about booking a safary directly with a Tanzania company, but the experince was unique.
The price for the journey (6 days in a safari - Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crate- and 4 days in Zanzibar) was very good comparing other offers I saw.
Everything was fantastic, and I have to mention our guide (now friend) Ayoub that was magnificent explaining all animals we saw.
Absolutely recommendable.
