Definitely like to do it again.
Plenty of wildlife to enjoy. Scenery was great. Weather cool in early morning and evening -great during the rest of the day.
Accommodation was spot on for authentic feel rather than luxurious.
Food was great - guide was great if a little rushed at times.
Transport was fine though a little hard on older bones, but to be expected in that environment.
The animals were the highlight for us and more than made up for any little inconveniences.

100% Amazing every day!
We spent four nights and five days in safari in South Africa and it was 100% amazing!
We chose to break it up and spend time in two different places: Timbavati at Simbavati River Lodge, and Balule at Ezulwini Billy’s Lodge. They were both fantastic and I would highly recommend each one. On our trip, we saw more animals at the first park, but that was beautifully complimented by all the things we learned about the veld (birds, trees, animals etc.) at the second park.
Each of the lodges were very comfortable and beautifully appointed, the food was delicious and abundant, and the service was outstanding!
I would highly recommend Simbavati River Lodge in the Timbavati reserve, as well as Ezulwini’s Billy’s Lodge in the Balule Reserve.
I would also recommend Tammy at Pembury Tours for her outstanding organization of our Safari!

My trip with Fair Travel Group was the experience of a lifetime.
I enjoyed an incredible experience visiting the Hadzabe in Lake Eyasi, made possible by Fair Travel group, and my wonderful guide, Musa. I was fortunate enough to spend 3 days and two night alongside the Hadzabe. I slept in a tent under a baobab tree, 100 meters from the Hadzabe’s huts. With Musa, who speaks English, Swahili, and the Hadza language, I joined tribe member for several activities.
One experience that I will remember for the rest of my life was when Musa and I joined three tribe members for a day of hunting. It was a privilege and honor to witness their skills, and spend those hours alongside the tribe members. With Musa’s translation skills, I was also fortunate enough to conduct an interview with the local chief. The three of us sat together and had a conversation. The time and kindness they afforded me was appreciated and indelible. Thank you, Fair Travel Group!

Perfect safari without any glitch
Everything was perfect and I can only recommend Tazama. From the communication with Anthony while planning the safari and before the arrival to very last day, everything was so smooth I couldnt believe it. Our driver/guide Charles was great, he showed us the big five and was very knowledgeable about the animals which we really appreciated. And we were usually the fastest car on the road outside the parks;)
The only little negative was, that Charles-guide/driver was obviously in different time zone, but after a couple of days, we synced. He was on African standard time (usual time + 15 minutes ;)), but we got used really quickly and used his time even after we left Kenya :-D
I recommend Tazama very much!

Best Safari
After getting in contact with several agencies, we chose Leadwood expeditions due to the great reactivity and kindness of Elias, who really helped us to choose the best destinations and accomodations within our budget and wishes.
Everything was perfect and went far beyond our greatest expectations : during our 5 days safari, we could see all the animals that we wanted in Tarangire, Seregenti, Ngorongoro, Manyara Lake.
Our English speaker guide John contributed significantly in the perfection of our experience : he is such a nice person and told us a lot of stories about the animals. He is also a great driver. Thanks to his professionalism, we managed to get very close from amazing animals that we dreamt to see.
Kudos also to the great food that was provided to us for or meals and pic-nics among the monkeys and giraffes.
All the great work performed by Leadwood expeditions for us to have great times and a trip that we will never forget.

My experience with Luitours and Safaris
When we first contacted Ibrahim we had some ideas on where to go and what to do, and without imposing his opinion, Ibrahim gave us precious advice on where to stay and all lodges were booked by him at a reasonable price, how to prepare for the trip and what experiences to chose taking into account our preferences.
We had amazing 7 days in Northern circuit, and we are so glad we trusted Luitours and Safaris for preparing our itinerary! Every detail was arranged, we fell in love with our guide Nico and there are no words to thank Ibrahim for taking care of all our needs from the very beginning to the days after our trip was over.
The trip was more than my dreams could imagine...luxurious lodging, delicious food, good drinks and wonderful animal viewing. If you go to Southern Tanzania the Ruaha is a must and Ruaha hilltop lodge is the place to stay. This was so much more than I expected and I had high expectations. But it’s been just fantastic. Thanks again Ibrahim and your team.

Amazing safari with Suricata Safaris
I just came back from an amazing Safari trip with Suricata Safaris. I went with my best friend and we had such a great time.
We booked the tour online and Hilary was so fast to respond on what-app and answer all of our million question.
We went on a group tour which was so nice. We had the best guide/driver and our chef made the most delicius food to us everyday.
We went on a 4 day safari to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. And each nationalpark was amazing in its own way. We saw so many beautiful animals and took thousands of fantasticly photos.
Suricata Safaris maked our safari to the best experience ever. Thank you so much. Asante sana.
