Amazing, well organised and delivered our dream holiday.
An amazing holiday, professionally organised and run. We saw everything there was to see. Our guide knew every location we traveled to and where we could potentially find the wildlife. He bent over backwards to make our dream holiday come true. Every place we stayed was top class and the food was amazing. Sunworld was recommended by Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage and after contacting Sunworld they asked all the right questions to ensure that this once in a lifetime experience was more and it was. So much so we want to go again and we would definitely go with Sunworld. The vehicles handled the conditions well and compared to some vehicles we saw whilst on safari, theirs was perfect. Carolyn in the head office made sure we stayed at least two nights in each location which is a must, because single nights reduce the chance to see things because nature makes its own timetables. The whole trip was developed around our time frame and budget two years ago and disrupted by Covid. For the last two years we have had to delay and Carolyn has rescheduled without complaining and each time has made sure that everything remained available for us when it was ready to go. Wilson our guide was amazing and has had 15 years with Sunworld and knew so much about animal behaviour and information on every bird and animal you could possibly see.
The greatest holiday ever and at the end of 20 days we were not left wanting to see anything, but we do now want to go again.

I highly recommend Greg Adventures for a lifetime experience.
I was a female solo traveler camping for 9 days in National Parks that spent the first 2 safari days alone with the guide/driver and the chef and can say that I felt extremely secure. Deo (guide/driver) and Pol (chef) were amazing, they were respectful, polite, professional and fun, I couldn´t have asked for a better company and experience. Deo knew how to find all the animals, we saw the big 5 more than once! He realized all of our “wishes”. Pol made magic with his food, I felt quite spoiled there!
On the road I could see many other safari companies, for that I can say that I made the right choice by travelling with Greg Adventures. While the other companies´ cars were going to the same place, Deo took us to see much more. His safari knowledge was crucial for this lifetime experience!
Camping in the middle of the national park with no fences was incredible, you could really feel the experience. Staring at that magical sky with no lights around and sleeping listening to the animals´ sound was for sure a lifetime experience.
Thank you Greg Adventures for giving me more than I could ever imagined! What a trip! An unforgettable experience!

Great experience with African Savannah Trekkers!
Great experience with African Savannah Trekkers! We spent 12 days in national parks and Zanzibar. It was great to have safari to Serengeti,Tarangire, Manyana lake and Ngorongoro crater. We could have a uniqe safari experience ; thanks to Philo and Elisante’s expertise. We had a chance to see wonderful animal sceneries including big 5. Elisante was knowledgeable about all aspects of the safari; he could find animals that many other guides could not.
Camps were comfortable and everyone was very friendly and helpful. Staying in the bush listening to animals in our tent was wonderful.
We spent 3 days in Zanzibar. The island is spectacular and the people was very kind and nice. Our hotel Langi Langi Beach Bungalows was very good. Rasta is an amazing chef and manager, Food was fantastic ! Philo arranged local tours (Safari Blue picnic, Stone town and Prison Island tours, Dolphine tour) which were really great!
We highly recommend African Savannah Trekkers. It is a great company to use in Tanzania. Thanks to Philo and the team..

It Was Great Tour Worthy It!!
We were students from Germany on a month long program. In between we decided to go for a short trip 3 days to maasai mara. The budget tour was awesome. We were able to see many animals including the Big five. The camp provided was okay and self contained. Thank you and we shall definitely recommend.

A unique and unforgettable experience
Okavango was on our bucket list and on short notice, Sekanka Safaris was able to organize and tailor an incredible camping safari from Maun to Xakanaxa and Khwai. Although we are seasoned safari-goers, this was our first minimalistic camping experience in the wilderness, as previously we slept in safari lodges or hotels.
Our guides Thalo and Ben delivered their services in an extraordinary, pleasant, and friendly manner. They made us feel at home, taking care of all aspects that would make our safari unforgettable. Everything was well organized from the onset, safe, with excellent guidance, explanations, and storytelling of the endless wildlife, flora, people, and local culture.

Great budget safari
This is a great budget safari for those who want a no frills experience where you are immersed in the Masai Mara park and Masai culture. I emailed frequently with the owner Alex before I arrived and he was very helpful! I signed up by myself but was added to a group of 5 others and we had a nice time together. Also, I’m very glad I chose the jeep 4x4 versus the mini van, as we had to help a few vans along the way that got stuck on the treacherous roads!
We spent a LOT of time out on safari-I was pleasantly surprised! Our guide Isaac was very knowledgeable and also did a good job of navigating the awful roads around the park. Masai village tour was included and was wonderful!
Lenchada camp is very basic but fine since you are basically just there to sleep. As a single female traveler, I felt very safe at the camp. Food is nothing fancy but flavorful and plentiful!
Suggestions: don’t drink too much water when you are at the Mara since there are basically no bathrooms; bring cash to the camp to buy beer, water, sodas or snacks. A flashlight is helpful for getting around the camp at night. The animals are noisy-earplugs are helpful at night. Bring layers especially if doing a safari in the colder months of June and July.
A few comments: meal times should be more frequent or we should be told to bring snacks. Most days we would leave the camp at 6am and eat lunch around 2pm, which was too long to wait for most of us. We were all starving well before lunchtime each day. Also, I didn’t like that the camp doesn’t provide any drinking water. The safari vehicle did have water but I also had to purchase bottled water at the camp. That seemed a bit strange to not have water available at meals or in the rooms.
All in all, it was a great experience and first safari for me.

Amazing experience from first email contact, to lots of questions, to even checking in on us after!
We had an AMAZING experience with Into Adventures! I reached out to several safari companies and Ben from Into Adventures was the best one with responses. He followed up with every question I had and I had a lot of them. I customized a lot of our trip and he was quick to accommodate my requests and provide a very fair quote. I felt very comfortable with our decision to go with them even before we stepped foot on ground in Kenya.
We spent 3 night in Masai Mara and then took a plane to Amboseli and spent 2 night there. It was the perfect program for what we wanted to do. My daughter is a photography major in college and both our guides (Ben in Masai Mara and Jackson in Amboseli) were amazing at getting her in the best position to get the most amazing shots. There are a lot of good safari companies out there and I doubt you will pick a bad one. But there aren't as many great ones. Into Adventures is a great one! Ben knows every driver out there and he stays in constant contact with all of them. So if there is a unique animal to see or a kill taking place, he will know about it and will get you there as quick as possible. Jackson was also incredibly patient with us as we spent hours trying to get a picture of a giraffe in front of Mount Kilimanjaro. The positioning of the Land Cruiser was critical and he was backing up, going forward, turning around or staying in position so we could get the perfect photo. We were fully committed and all-in on this trip to take full advantage of this opportunity. Both our guides were willing to get up with us way before the sun came up and get us to where we needed to be to see the most animal movement. Ben and Jackson from Into Adventures made this a trip of a life-time!

Prompt communication and excellent recommendations
We would highly recommend Roho Ya Chui. We just finished our second trip with them. Our first was to Zambia and our second trip was to Botswana and Uganda. Ute is always super prompt in her communication and happy to patiently answer all of our questions. She was especially helpful with regards to travel in our new COVID era - explaining and giving detailed instructions on what documentation and/or testing was required where and if it was likely to change. For our first trip to Zambia we found Roho Ya Chui on safari bookings and so we had more of a fixed itinerary that we found on the site. For our second trip to Botswana and Uganda we went directly to Ute and she helped develop a custom itinerary for us. We told her where we wanted to go, our budget, tentative dates, and what kinds of activities we liked and she came back with a plan that met those needs which was perfect! We originally wanted to go to Rwanda to see the gorillas but based on Ute’s recommendation on the less stringent testing requirements and less expensive permits we decided to change our travel to Uganda and we were glad we did. It was also very nice to have someone arrange all of the gorilla permits as part of our itinerary. All you have to do is book your tickets to/from Africa and everything else is taken care of for you. All of our transfers were seamless and our drivers were always local to the area and very nice. A 50% deposit is required to book which is always a little hard to send so much money to someone you just “met” on the internet but we were able to pay with a credit card for an extra fee which made us feel better. Ute also provides a confirmation right away so you know payment is received successfully. Of course someone was holding a board with our name on it at the airport when we finally arrived at our destination so we knew it worked! I really like the voucher that Ute provides so you have all of the info in one place and know what to expect. When we book our next trip I know we book again with Roho Ya Chui!
