Great experience
Well organized tour. Our driver Richard was carefull and reliable. His experience and knowledge of the area made it possible that we even saw the big five. This and the selection of beautiful and luxerious lodges made the safari to one of our best experiences in our lifetime. Thank you Vervet Safari Tour. We would choose your service anytime again.

Great value for money, friendly, helpful staff, incredible experience.
We originally booked the safari for 4 people and the team were great about giving us all the required detail. OUr booking then changed to 5, and then to 6 and they were great about accommodating this. Having done safari in Ngorogoro Crater, and Chloe in Botswana, I was really hoping this would be a good one - and it did not disappoint. Everything ran seamlessly, the driver (Richard) was fantastic and very helpful - but without being overbearing/invasive as some drivers can be. We also was felt very safe with him and the whole experience was excellent for everyone (me, my sisters and brother (24 - 24) and my parents (63)).

Simon is the epitome on professionalism
The experience was wonderful. We learnt a lot about the gorges at Hell's gate through Simon. Everything the tour promised was delivered above and beyond. The tour, the food, the information, the resources were all top notch. Keep up the good job Simon. Very understanding and cool person.

Serengeti is one of the 3 the best places in whole Africa for game watching. I love it without any restriction.

My 4th time in Tanzania was the best of all... before the next one
Moodson has been a great guide, as well an excellent game-tracker, and a very nice fellow; all this combination gave me fantastic moments in the unique Serengeti. Waldo, the guide we had in the other places (Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, Tarangire) has been bad: this opinion was shared by everybody. I don't mind about having explanations about wildlife, for it was my 10th experience in this part of Africa, but the other people in the 4x4 always had to ask explanations to that guide, who was without motivation. We all thought we were ONLY money providers for him. Concerning the company I had booked with,i.e budgetsafaris, Olivia and Carlson are very nice people, they only need more experience. In any case, I'll go back to Tanzania. Please keep your wonderful country clean, safe and always fantastic!

5 day Safari
Our destinations were Masai Mara, Nakuru Lake and at the end Amboseli National Park. From the pick up to the return in our hotel in Nairobi everything went on time and smoothly. The overnight accomodation including catering were realy good, the daily safaris varied and interesting With Raymond we had the best driver you could have-Always on time , attentive and always with a good sense of humor.
The price for this tour was fair.

Very knolegeable about the wildlife, trees and vegitation. A pleasant personality.
Best tour I have been on...3rd time in 14 years.
We ran out of gas...the operator added fuel and engine would not start...the engine was misfiring on the way up to the falls. We drifted into shore right on top of hippos and their young.
I noticed only one paddle which I requested... guide would not give it to me... we would have been safer in my opinion on the river than beached in close proximity to the hippos and their young. I watched and the hippos moved up the river a short way. They were grunting, stomping and warning us but their alarm level seemed to be decreasing. So remaining quiet seemed the next best option.
Our rescue boat showed up with another load of guests. Rather than throwing a toe line and pulling us out into the river, the operator pulled along side of us, tied off and partially beached a second boat load of customers. While we were being toed out into the river the other boat was stirring mud and rocks as we moved back into the river...I was totally surprised that they didn't shear a pin and disable a second boat.
I was on a boat with family and friends... a second boat load of people were put in jeopardy... I think that training would be in order for your operators....
Training and drills... how to handle the unexpected.
I am always on the side of the working man...great men, just add training and drills.
Sincerely,

An excellent safari with our guide Harun
We have just returned from a 5 day safari in Ngorongoro and Serengeti which surpassed our expectations We saw the 'Big 5' at pretty close quarters as well as numerous other animals. Our driver/guide, Harun, seemed to have a sixth sense as to where we would find animals.
The accommodation, both the tented and the lodge were extremely comfortable providing really tasteful food and the staff were amazing. You felt you were welcomed as friends.
We cannot recommend highly enough

Outstanding safari with Safari Multiways
We did a five day safari with Safari Multiways and could not fault it. It was amazing from start to finish. Romeo’s communication was perfect, the organisation could not have been better and our guide - Moses - was amazing! Ask for him! The accommodation was so much better than we expected, as was the food. We saw absolutely everything and didn’t feel like we missed out on anything. The best tour company around!
