Honest and trustworthy tour operator
After a lot of research on different safari operators I selected travel for change for our safari last year. Patricia was excellent at planning what would have been an amazing safari and beech holiday in Kenya. Sadly due to the pandemic we were unable to go which was a great disappointment to us. However, Patricia was very understanding and we set up a refund agreement to help the business keep going and to allow her to pay the refund at the end of July 2021. This came good yesterday so despite our sadness of a lost holiday we have not lost our money. I can highly recommend this company.

Experience of a lifetime
We went to kenya during covid in july 2021 and it was one of the best experiences ever.. Baboon budget safari were super nice and helpful throughout the whole trip.. They made sure that our itenerary is well organized and tailored, so that we will be covering all the attractions in our tight timeline... The best part of the trip was our guide Anthony.. Truly a genuine guy who made sure we wont miss out on anything during our game drives.. He was always going the extra mile to make sure we encounter all types of wildlife and was very informative and gave an in breadth explanation of everything during the game drives which really took our experience to a whole new level... Definately recommend kenya and baboon safari as a must do on your bucket list

Absolutely fabulous
Sudi was outstanding. He was incredibly knowledgeable, polite, considerate, and focused. He made sure we got to experience local culture in addition to doing game drives. He brought in a local guide in one area to make sure we had the right thing experience. I would use him again and would really commend him to everyone I know. Thank you for such a terrific journey.

Professional, quick to respond, listen to customer need
Kennedy was amazing!
He was responsive, quick to reply to email/whatsapp, and listening to us. We changed our program multiple times and he was always willing to adjust, recommend. He was flexible with cancellation/payment terms which was a great plus in COVID time. Such a stressfree booking experience.
He personally welcomed us at the airport before leaving us with our driver John who stayed with us for the rest of the trip. John was a smooth and flexible driver, very knowledgable about the park and its animals. He always had an annecdot or a joke to tell us. Worth mentioning that we had a private 4x4 car and had no problems on the road, not like other agency that offer minibus options and get stuck in the mud (we saw plenty)
I would highly recommend Kennedy if you want a professional, smooth, out of this world experience

Very enjoyable safari trip
Victor planned a special trip, just for us, so we could go to gorilla trecking and safari in Murchison falls n.p. in one trip. Made sure we got comfortable and pleasant accomodation and good food. Also had drinking water and fruits available any time of the tour. Was not hesitant to rearrange various activities so we could do them all even though we had some traffic jam delays. I recommend High Flying Tours!

Great team, great flexibility
We did an amazing 10 day round trip in Uganda with Standard Safaris, visited Murchison Falls National Park, Queen Elisabeth National Park, Kibale Forest, Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and Lake Victoria. All the destinations are worth visiting, since they offer unique scenery, flora and fauna. Uganda is a beautiful and versatile country to visit in Africa, highly recommended to anyone. If I had a chance to return, I would definitely choose the team of Standard Safaris!

Unsurpassed Service and Support from Start to Finish
Traipsing Africa’s Safaris receives my highest recommendation. During the beginning stages of planning a trip to South Africa and Zimbabwe I quickly learned that it isn’t easy finding information about Zimbabwe safaris, communication can be slow, and booking online isn’t always an option. Enter Sandra from Traipsing who made everything so easy! Firstly, Sandra’s knowledge and expertise helped me narrow down the many options. Secondly, she was able to secure a special rate that allowed us to stay at the 5 star The Hide Camp in Hwange National Park. The Hide is utterly amazing and I would never have considered it thinking that it was out of our price range! Sandra made the payment process as simple and easy as possible. Sandra organized ground transportation and it was a seamless and comfortable journey to The Hide through Victoria Falls. Communication with Sandra was superb and she periodically checked in via email during the holiday just to see if there was anything she could assist with and there was!! There were so many unknowns and we had questions about travel and testing requirements during the COVID pandemic and Sandra being on the ground in South Africa was able to get us the information we needed. I have no doubt that our holiday was more amazing because of Sandra’s advice and suggestions! Having lived in South Africa I thought I could plan and book everything myself - I now would recommend to anyone traveling to Africa that they partake of the expertise a travel agent offers to enhance your adventure. I highly recommend Traipsing Africa’s Safaris and am so glad that we booked through them.

Great safari company!
We had a great time on safari through Shemeji! From planning to to actual trip, it was very well organized and we never felt rushed. Emma was very quick to respond on scheduling and planning before the trip. Very helpful in all the documentation needed to enter Tanzania. Our guide (Adson) and our chef (Godson) were awesome as well. We did end up seeing the Big 5 on the last day of our safari thanks to our guide Adson and his great eyes! Going to Zanzibar was a great way to relax and cap off the trip. It was beautiful and all the locals were very friendly. If you're looking to go on a safari, I would definitely recommend going through Shemeji.

Wonderful vacation and service.
We loved our Africa vacation. Despite the airline schedule changes involved the whole itinerary went smoothly thanks to our travel consultant Matthys Van Aswegan who monitored our connections so we could fully enjoy each destination. Our Sabi Sands Game Reserve Safari and Victoria Falls visit was breathtaking and mesmerizing. Each lodge was over the top with a wonderful staff. Hopefully, someday, we will be able to return!
