AWP knows no impossibility when it comes to service.
I used a travel agency platform for finding a provider who would serve my rather special travel demands as I only wanted a short stay and could not accept long journeys to the wildlife I was so much interested in watching. AWP eventually was the only agency who responded to my requests and made sure that I had a terrific experience even though the obstacles only started to mount once we entered the planning phase. Plus, it all happened in a matter of days but it wouldn't had it not been for AWP's Phillips relentless search for solutions including awkward financing issues.

Excellent personalized service both before and during the safari - highly recommended.
We've been on several African safaris and really appreciated the specialised attention received in advance and great value on the ground.
In planning, attentive communications and assistance helped us to organise a customised tour on relatively short notice. Esther was far ahead of others in responsiveness and suggestions, and she also helped with great upgrades.
On arrival in Kenya, the handoff to our driver and guide James was smooth and we were in his highly-competent hands for an amazing week that included Lake Nakuru, Maasai Mara, Naivasha and Amboseli - and just as importantly managing the intervening roads skillfully and safely.
James was also great at locating some harder to see animals including leopards that other guides and tourists had only hoped to see.
We'd love to do another tour with Leisure Escapes - and in the meantime recommend them highly!

The tour was beautiful
Great safari Experience
These guys are very good, professional and reasonably priced. The tour guide was very friendly and informative. The car was also new, well maintained and comfortable. Ngorongoro was the highlight of our trip. Amazing landscape and wildlife. Thanks Elipidius and Daniel.

Perfectly organized safari at an unbeatable price
We did a 3-day safari through the Serengeti and the Ngrongoro Crater with this organization, including an overnight stay in a hotel before and after the safari. From the beginning, communication with Humphrey was fast, all our questions were answered in detail and he always tried to make all requests possible. We were picked up and returned on time from the airport of our choice. The Venice Hotel is the only point of criticism for us. The staff were very friendly and the room was nice. However, we had our laundry done there and ended up paying $100 for 2 machines of laundry. An absolutely utopian price. We agreed on 40$, although even this price is absolutely unjustified. The safari was very well organized and the guide had an answer to every question. Above all, the cook Joachim conjured up extremely tasty food, was infinitely attentive and always tried to fulfill our every wish. We spent one night in the lodge and one night in a tent. The lodge was excellent. The camping was very adventurous. You should have done it once, but only for one night at most. Unfortunately, the mattress and sleeping bag were not very hygienic. Due to the fact that we were very satisfied with the entire organization, we spontaneously decided to book a 1-day tour to the Chemka Hotsprings and the Materuni Waterfall. Here, too, we were picked up on time. The guide Nassibu was also very attentive and was able to answer all our questions.
Overall, we would definitely recommend booking through this organization. We are very satisfied and the prices are unbeatable!

Extremely knowledgeable of the area and our safari was organized efficiently with what we needed
Dealing with Michelle at Explore & Travel Africa was a delight. She knows the camps and listened to what we were wanting in our safari to Botswana. The camps we chose from the selection she sent were wonderful, Savuti and Tubu Tree each different in character but run in the best way where we were treated so well. Michelle, had a face time talk with us which was very helpful, ensuring she was suggesting the camps that suited our preferences. In both camps the guides were excellent and the game viewing wonderful. Thank you Michelle for making this safari great, everything worked according to plan.

Excellent, Caring, Professional
Nalange Mobile Safaris was unforgettable experience. Tebla’s team did their absolutely best to care for all our needs. The tents were cozy, the camps were safe and the safaris were amazing. The meal plan offered a good variety of food, was ten out of ten and met our dietary requirements precisely. The team even provided a fascinating entertainment programme for each night including breathtaking stargazing in the middle of the bush. Tebla was not only an excellent guide but a good organizer who planned the whole trip for us. Totally recommended!

Well planned and executed
We traveled with People Tours and Safaris for 12 days. Our experience was really good on most places. The route of the tour is planned so you are able to see all varieties of Namibia, from the Namib desert, to Etosha and all in between. Food, activities and accomodation was included in our price which we thought was a good deal. We mixed camping and lodging which was really nice, it was very comfortable and you get a lot for your price. Our guide was really friendly and hepful, most of all, because of his good knowledge of the sights we visited, we were able to arrive before the big tourist groups which made the experience overall really great. To be able to enjoy the namib landscape in peace and with a great amount of flexibility is what you want for this trip. After the 12 days we rented a car to do a self drive the last part of our trip. We were really happy that we went with a tour operator before the self drive, we had much less stress than if we would do only self-drive. We also managed to see more with a tour operator which we also liked. Overall great experience!

The whole trip was easy as the team was communicative and reliable.
My husband and I took a Safari with Awuor Escapades in August for our honeymoon. Everything was clear and easy to set up as the team was very responsive through email and WhatsApp. Everything was taken care of for us so e we didn’t need to worry about anything. We saw all the big 5, felt that we had an excellent trip. The most significant part of our safari was our guide, Philip O. He was a man of integrity, polite and respected the land, people and the animals. It was so nice seeing a man who relied on safaris for a living to still make sure we didn’t make the animals feel stressed and that no one fed the animals do they could be as natural as possible. The safari was amazing but I think the guide can really make or break the experience. We were very fortunate to be paired with Philip.
