Incredible experience, had the best time!
We had the best time with Tanzania Wildheart Adventures. They were very responsive, punctual and offered flexibility. We were really happy with our guide Harry, he knew exactly where to find the animals, did an amazing job getting us around, he knew the parks by heart, we saw 3 leopards and rinos!
We saw that many people that went with other companies paid double than what we paid with Tanzania Wildheart Adventures, so we knew we got a good deal with them and will recommend to everyone!

A once in a lifetime adventure
A great tour at a great price. Food and accommodation were exquisite and the guide was relentless in getting us close to the big five. Highly recommend.

Wildlife Safaris provided us with an exceptional safari experience.
When I first contacted Wildlife Safaris, I was unsure what type of experience would be suitable for our liking. Jonathan was very helpful in responding to my endless questions and helped to narrow down the best options for my wife and I for a Kruger National Park safari. The end result was an exceptional safari experience. Nick Snyman was our personal guide and driver for our five day safari. He provided excellent information and commentary without overwhelming us with too much detail. He is a very knowledgeable guide and has a keen eye to spot wildlife. Nick is a very personable guide with whom we enjoyed spending our five days. He was very good at looking after us and making sure our needs were addressed. We spent a night at Sabie River Lodge which was quite nice and comfortable. Then spent a night inside the park at Skukuza lodge. Though a bit rustic and dated, the hut was clean and adequate. We ended our safari by spending two nights at Mohlabetsi private lodge which sits within Balule private game reserve. Mohlabetsi is an outstanding boutique accommodation with large well appointed huts and attached outdoor private shower. The staff our outstanding and the grounds are beautiful. Meals are served in different settings including an outdoor dinner around an open fire. The food was very good at Mohlabetsi though not outstanding. We were fortunate to see the Big Five as well as numerous other wildlife, often up close. The open-air safari vehicles provided a nice safari viewing experience.
I highly recommend Wildlife Safaris and would love to use their services again.

Fun, interesting info given, saw SoOo many animals!
Our driver from hotel to Pilanesberg was great; he drove safely, was courteous and informative. When we arrived at the Park, our driver was T. He made sure we had good views of all the animals, he let people in private vehicles know where the lions and cheetahs were, he pulled out his phone to give us information on birds we saw and made sure that we all had a great time!!

Great experiences and tour guides
We had a wonderful 4 days safari tour with Max and Salim from Suricata Safaris. Everything went smooth, the food and accommodation was amazing and we saw a lot of animals.

Really well-organised, responsive, friendly and helpful operator
We booked an 8-day tour with Divulge Adventures - climbing Mount Kenya, then visiting Ol Pejeta, Lake Naivasha and the Masai Mara. It was an incredible experience and very well organised. We contacted a few operators for the holiday and Divulge Adventures were by far the most responsive. They tried to get to know us, offered a lot of help and were very well-organised. For the hiking part, we provided with a good amount of equipment and the team who came with us on the ground were absolutely fantastic. For the safari part, our guide really tried to allow us to have a good time which is much appreciated. Overall, all of the different parts of the tour were well connected and the communication was great. I would really recommend this operator.

Very informed and amusing character with an immense knowledge of wild life.
Firstly, David has a great sense of fun - you will enjoy much laughter, and you will hear hyenas laughing too! You will see beauty in every direction; from kingfishers on the river banks, to lion families lazing on the rocks.
The sounds of the
David knows the terrain, he knows the natural habitat of every animal. David can identify from the tracks, which animals had been passing by earlier. His eyes are always searching for signs of movement in the bush or the trees. David will tell you which seasons are best to see certain animals, which safari books to recommend. You will enjoy the beauty of kingfishers making their nests on the river banks, baby elephants out walking with their mothers, lions lying under the ledges of the cliffs, at rest (for the moment...), and he is skilled at slowing the Land Rover down, keeping it quiet, so that you can hear all the sounds of life around you.

Fantastic 2 day Nyerere safari
As a solo traveler I was a bit nervous that there would not be options available to me (especially at a reasonable price) but huge shoutout to Winnie who held my hand through the process including when some flight issues meant I had to shorten from 3 days to 2. Isaya was an amazing guide as others have noted and we made the most of the shortened time. Would note that drive to Nyerere from Dar was only around 4 hours each way as I saw some sources mentioning a much longer transit time. The road isn’t great but wasn’t as bad as I had feared.

Professional, flexible, excellent communication
Myself and a friend took a day tour to Hells Gate NP and Lake Naivasha with Moran tours. I chose Moran as the company was recommended by an acquaintance and I would now recommend to others. Both Moses and Daniel our guide were friendly, professional and accommodating. Communication was excellent. We had a fantastic day. The boat ride on Lake Naivasha and the walk on Crescent Island were the highlights. The bird life on the lake was fantastic, the guides were very knowledgeable, and Crescent Island was amazing, to be able to walk amongst zebra and giraffes was a dream. Beware that you need to pay the $30 fee for crescent island in cash, you cannot pay by card. The cycle in Hells Gate was cool but quite hard work, particularly on the way back (but that may be because we arrived late so only had 2 hours). Overall it was a great day and I would recommend.

Amazing 5 day experience with Suricata!
With my partner we had an amazing experience with Suricata. We did 5 days. From the first moment, we were impressed by their exceptional service, delicious food and impeccable punctuality.
Ezekiel, our guide, was a genius, his passion and knowledge of wildlife left us in awe every step of the way. They met all our expectations and more.
In addition, we are grateful for the assistance they gave us in obtaining the visa to enter Tanzania, which made our trip even more hassle free. Thank you Halimaat for being so attentive and helpful!
We highly recommend Suricata to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure with great service.
Thank you Ezekiel, Halimaat, Daniel, Musa, Mandela and all your team!
