The paradise to see nature
If you are looking for a safe place in the world to see many, many animals in their natural habitat, Tanzania is "the place". People are wonderful and do their best to make you feel comfortable. Nature is really preserved in the national parks.
Choosing a local tour operator is the best to support african people. We were extremely satisfied with Safari Soles operator. We recommend it and we also recommend a budget package (in tents) to be closer to nature. A Big Five safari during a week is amazing !

Magical
Kenya was everything and more. From the moment we arrived we were met with friendliness and warmth and nothing was too much trouble.Our safari was amazing , going to see the wilderbeast migration and of course all the other animals too.We stayed in 6 different locations, Nairobi, Masai Mara, Nakuru,Naivasha, Amboseli and Mombasa all bringing something special.Every place had the same happy smiling faces always ready to help, to serve or just be welcoming.I visited this country when I was 26 years and it did not disappoint then and it certainly hasn’t now . Everyone needs to visit this amazing country and it’s wonderful people .

Safe and quiet country with lots to offer. Absolutely loved it and wished I could have stayed long.
Botswana has so much to offer. From the beauty of its landscape and animals to the genuine nature of its people. Don’t know why it took me so long to get here.

Professional service. Great guide/driver in Namibia.
We communicated directly with our agent (Amber) in regards our itinerary. There was a lot of back and fro in our planning. We were also able to use WhatsApp which proved very useful. The itinerary was out together professionally. Detailed lay out of our accommodation, excursions and activities.
During our trip, our guide and driver was a man named Stewart, a very friendly, knowledgable and outgoing person who made us feel welcome and ensured our safety. He drove very well throughout and told us lots about the history and current affairs of the nation. He helped out with photo taking and accomodated our wishes.
The accommodation we stayed in was a delight. The Gondwana collection was superb especially the Canyon Lodge in Fish River Canyon. We loved the food at each especially at Desert Lodge near Sossusvlei. However, we stayed at Belvedere Hotel in Windhoek and weren’t that impressed with the poor quality of the bed (one of the worst night’s sleep of my life) and there was no dinner served at the hotel. We had to order delivery (pizza/pasta, very average). May want to avoid this establishment.
If you’re thinking of going to Namibia, I would highly recommend visiting Sossusvlei(it’s a must do). Be sure to head up the sand dunes and then down into the pan. We also went to Swakopmund and Walvis Bay. The marine cruise was a huge surprise as we got up, close and personal to the seals and pelicans. The beach braai (BBQ) was also a lovely experience. Highly recommended. However we also went to Fish River Canyon which was a long journey south. I think you could skip this and instead head north to Damaraland and onto Safari in Etosha. We didn’t do these things as we had just come from Safari in Kenya, but our driver said Damaraland was his favourite part of Namibia. The landscape of the nation is stunning. You can drive for hours without seeing other vehicles. There aren’t many tourists around. It’s a great African country for a visit. The roads are in excellent condition.
On our arrival, our luggage was delayed, but Stewart and Amber assisted us and it was on the next flight into Windhoek. Jo’burg airport has a huge issue with luggage and it seems that many travellers do not get their baggage in time. Keep this in mind.
We highly recommend this tour operator for your Namibian trip. You won’t be disappointed.
