A wonderful, friendly timely response from all of my emails!
5/5

Dear Esther,
Our safari was wonderful!!! From the moment Ben arrived to pick us up, even 10 minutes early which is a blessing to me, to the customized water bottles you engraved that the grandsons especially enjoyed. They were a hit and considered by them to be so very special!!
Ben was able to give a lot of details on the area we would be seeing including culture, the Rift Valley, the Masai people and the Masai Mara Park.
Ben educated us on points of interest, wildlife and their habitats and how to look for animals far beyond our normal patterns of vision. We saw so many different species of wildlife. Ben was very patient in allowing us to linger at certain close encounters with many of the animals that allowed us to get incredible pictures and mental images that will last a lifetime.
The Enkorok lodge was very accommodating and the food was exceptionally plentiful and tasteful. The sleeping quarters were very comfortable and adequately furnished. It was all a wonderful experience with many memories that will always be cherished. Esther, you were so helpful in coordinating our safari and making it successful. My compliments to you and Ben both.
Sincerely,
Randall

Trip of a lifetime made special by Walking Stick (Philimon & crew)
5/5

Our 11-day safari began at the Maun airport, a bit stressed due to late flights causing us not to get to our first campsite (by canoe!) until nearly dark. Philimon's crew was friendly, attentive and most importantly 100% committed to our safety and comfort at all times. After 2 nights on a island in the delta, we canoed (mokoro) back out and began the long journey to Moremi. Philimon is a master at finding interesting game both on his own and through his CB radio network and frequent chats with other guides. We really saw so much more than anticipated including 4 of the big 5 (no rhino along our route).

We could not recommend Walking Stick more highly. They work so hard without a single complaint and made us feel comfortable and safe and satisfied with our photo journey, we can't wait to book again in a few years!

5/5

It was the most beautiful experience of my life :) I feel like I chose the perfect company because I got accurate, detailed information about everything. During my safari it was sunny time, I felt safe with the driver, he was a very good driver, he knew the answer to all my questions. We saw a lot of animals. I saw the 5 big five, it was an incredible feeling. I can recommend it to everyone, National Geographic live :)) The chef of the Planet Reserve company prepared divine food for dinner. The staff was very kind and helpful. And Mudy, the owner of the company, is extremely attentive and careful. It solves any problem, is reliable and honest. Which is rare in these companies. Feel free to look for them if you are looking for a truly exciting safari.

never travel with this company
1/5

We went to Africa for our honeymoon and I planned this trip for more than 3 months but when we were there everything we have planned was all different. The local agent told me there's no migration at that time of the year(this was the reason why I chose this agency: and they guaranteed this).
The hotel rooms were double (four honeymooners)
the driver of the game drive(safari tour driver) didn't know anything, even directions of the park; it took whole day wondering around the park looking for the resort so wer didn't get to see many animals.
the safari car regularly broke down and we had to stop in the middle of the park or had tji travel far to get the car fixed.
this was disaster.
I complained about this to the agent back in Switzerland but she said it will be taken care of (for 6 months) and she said "STOP email her about it".
There are allot more to tell but I don't even want to spend too much time writing about them.

Memories forever!!!
5/5

My wife, 12 year-old son and myself decided to go for a safari in January and looked into safaribookings.com. It was our first safari and we had no clue of what was ahead besides seeing a lot of wildlife! Bud was awesome at explaining the details of the trip, pros and cons and even suggesting an awesome experience in Lake Naivasha and Crescent Island walking tour which he came to meet us and dedicated an afternoon to share information and culture of Kenya with us!
Our guide and driver Charles was amazing! He is from Kenya and knew a lot about the culture, the parks, the animals and where to find them! He drove us for 6 days from Nairobi to Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara.
I was very happy with the entire experience: the hotel selection was amazing, our dedicated land cruiser, the parks and the games! And the most exciting is the passion that both Charles and Bud have to share their knowledge, the Kenyan culture, the Swahili and the impacting social project Mattaw Safaris sponsors to help orphan kids to develop, get access to education and prosper! I may quote their mission incorrectly but this is what stuck with me: “Mattaw - Safari that gives back”.
Thanks for giving us all the memories! Forever!

Uganda Safari and Gorilla Trek
5/5

We absolutely loved our week-long trip to Uganda with African Adventure Vacations. The itinerary was amazing and everything went very smoothly and was kept to schedule as planned. Our driver Cesar was amazing and the probably the best driver and guide we have ever had. The hotels were great and we particularly loved the Silverback Lodge and the Bird's Nest on Lake Bunyonyi. The gorilla trek was one of the best discoveries we have ever experienced. Amazing!! A big thanks to Robert who was very professional and kind and extremely efficient in organizing everything. Finally, Uganda is a wonderful country where people are friendly and welcoming and the landscape is absolutely stunning. An unforgettable trip!

Willem is an amazing guide!
5/5

If you are on the fence about booking a tour with Mmilo tours, just do it! Willem is a wonderful guide and I would highly recommend going to Pilanesberg with him. He is extremely knowledgeable about the park, the animals inside, and was just as excited as we were to be there. A great value!

Excellent choice for my group tour for a South African Safari
5/5

Go Touch Down went over and above my expectations! I organize group tours in the US and we interviewed several organizations before choosing Go Touch Down as our South African Safari tour partner. They handled everything in the same manner I would for my tours in the US. My group of 14 was informed, entertained and cared for during our time in South Africa. We stayed in the best accommodations and the food was amazing. I will continue to work with Go Touch Down for all of my African Safari groups and any other area in the world we can colaborate together and take people to exotic destinations! Thank you Go Touch Down for being a business I can trust with my hosted group tours!
