Great tour operator
5/5

I did a safari to Pilanesberg Park. Initially, the driver arrived 1h late because the previous one had had an issue, but the company was easy to communicate with and update me on the next pickup time. Once at Pilaneseberg (a 2h30 scenic drive from Sandton) , the rangers greeted and the transition was well organized. We got to see many elephants, a rhino, a few hippos and sleeping lions. The trip was absolutely brilliant, and really good value for money, considering how far the Park is to Joburg, that lunch was included, and that we saw 3 of the Big 5.
Would recommend any day!

The trip of a lifetime
5/5

We recently completed a 9-day Uganda Safari. The tour from beginning to end was wonderful. . Elly, our tour guide was so knowledgeable and helpful and went out of his way to make our tour memorable. Sedrick made sure we had the best accommodation and even upgraded our last accommodation so that we can relax at the end of a tiring trek.

The safari was beyond any expectation I had. I would highly recommend Ngoni Safaris.

5/5

Pick-up at hotel in Johannesburg was on time: 05:15 by Arnold, a safe driver.

Other travelers joined the tour in Pretoria.
We transferred to a safari vehicles at Pilanesberg park. Our park guide/driver Martin was very knowledgeable about flora/fauna.
He assisted in spotting wildlife, positioning the vehicle for best view, and helped with photography when requested.

Wonderful experience
5/5

You are a very good guide who knows his job very well... smiling, attentive to his customers, sociable, caring, passionate about his work, resourceful, motivated, very friendly, who goes out of his way to find a solution to each problem.
You allowed us to see things we would never have seen elsewhere, animals and magnificent landscapes. You gave us time to enjoy every moment.

Excellent, fast communication and incredible experience!
5/5

10/10 recommend. An absolute dream trip. Communication is SO easy - just text them (number is here on the website), and someone gets back to you fast with details. There are a few options - van or keep (go with Jeep!!) and type of accommodation (my group stayed at 3 different ones - camping and two mid range places - and everyone liked their lodging). The first night’s game drive was my favorite - absolutely incredible to see the animals and park at sunset. The second day is loonmmggg. Logistically you can’t get to the far reaches of the park if they were to split the day into two separate game drives so it makes sense but it is LONG and surprisingly exhausting even though you’re in the Jeep most of the day (there is a 30ish minute walk to see crocs and hippos). I recommend bringing snacks in case lunch ends up later as the guide finds the most beautiful spot.

Our driver / guide Johny was incredible and a true pro. We all had a great time getting to know him and each other. Other guides were asking him where to find animals - he’s clearly the best!

This is truly 10/10. The ONLY recommendations I have to make this company be even more of a total standout is 1) to bring thermoses of coffee and tea; 2) to bring wine and do a sunset thing or late afternoon cheers at the end of the second day to bring everyone together and celebrate a great safari. Our guide Johny took our group to a local bar (we asked) and it was so fun to see local bar culture and we bought some bottles of wine for a celebratory cheers.

Loved this trip and will never forget it!

The best Ethiopian experience
5/5

We recently had the privilege of embarking on an 8-day tour of Northern Ethiopia with Gamel Tours. From day one, it was clear that this would be a journey like no other.

Samrawit was an extraordinary guide—knowledgeable, personable, and extremely accommodating. She tailored our schedule to meet our interests, ensuring that we could fully absorb the rich history and breathtaking landscapes of Addis, Lalibela, Bahar Dar, Gondar, and the Simien Mountains.

The highlights were plentiful. We marveled at Lalibela's rock-hewn churches, a feat of engineering that ignites the imagination. Bahar Dar enchanted us with its stunning lakes and waterfalls, while Gondar's castles transported us to a bygone era of regal splendor. Our time in the Simien Mountains was awe-inspiring, with vistas that seemed to stretch into infinity.

But what truly set this tour apart was the quality of service. Gamel Tours orchestrated every detail with precision, from hotel bookings to transportation, making our trip worry-free. Samrawit often went above and beyond, arranging special experiences that allowed us to connect with the local communities.

By the end of the journey, we were not just awed by the beauty of Ethiopia—we were also filled with a profound appreciation for its culture and history, thanks to Samrawit's and her network of knowledgeable agents, guides, and drivers' tireless efforts to enlighten us.

If you're yearning for an unforgettable adventure that both educates and captivates, look no further than Gamel Tours and. This trip did not just meet our expectations—it vastly exceeded them, especially considering the state of conflict in the North - we felt completely safe. Five stars aren't enough to encapsulate this extraordinary experience. Highly recommend!

An experience that will stay with me forever!
5/5

Wow, what an incredible safari tour experience! From start to finish, I was completely captivated by the beauty and wonder of the wildlife and landscapes. The knowledgeable guides, Eric and Humphrey made sure every moment was filled with excitement and discovery. The close encounters with majestic animals like lions, elephants, and giraffes left me in awe of nature's magnificence. The open vehicle provided excellent visibility, allowing us to observe the animals in their natural habitat without disturbing them. The accommodations were comfortable and in harmony with the surroundings, offering a truly immersive experience. I can't recommend this safari tour enough for anyone seeking an unforgettable adventure and a deep connection with the natural world.
