Great short break to Amboseli National Park
5/5

The communications pre and post trip were succinct and sufficiently informative to avoid confusion. Silvester was present at both the pick up and drop off to answer questions and to take feedback.

The tour delivered everything on the trip notes and more. The driver Johnson was informative, good company and flexible in approach. In addition to driving and guiding he conveyed an enthusiasm and knowledge of the park, wildlife and birds. He recommended an amendment to the itinerary on day 2 in order to venture further in to the park and this allowed me to see a greater variety of birds as well as a pride of lions.

I would have no hesitation in booking again with this company and would ask them to price match against similar tours - if they don't have the same advertised tour - they would be open to tailor made trips.

Excellent organisation of a multi stop safari and beach holiday in Tanzania
5/5

Their booking and administrative staff (Sona) were very organised, they gave us lots of holiday property options and remained connected even while on safari. The driver of our 4x4, Kazungo was very experienced, safe and explained everything really well and showed us a wide variety of animals and fauna.

If I could give it 10 stars I would!
5/5

No words can adequately describe the overall experience!

I booked this trip early 2018 with Kathi from African Welcome Safaris. She was professional, responsive and super friendly. She answered my 50,000 questions quickly and thoroughly and she handled all of the logistics beautifully.

The safari itself was an unforgettable experience. Selati Camp was out of this world. The staff paid such close attention to every possible detail. Ashleigh, the property manager, was so professional and kind. Keegan and Donald were our guide / tracker duo and they were AMAZING! SO knowledgeable and fun to spend hours each day with as we tracked game on our drives. The house staff (Lucy, Chef Dick, etc) were one in a million.

There were literally surprises around every corner! Expect unexpected experiences pulled together by the staff literally took our breath away (not going to say what they are to avoid ruining any surprises!). And there were wildlife surprises around every corner - from rounding the corner on our drive to go shopping to stumble upon a group of giraffe, to finding an elusive pair of lions wandering across the road en route to the airport on our departure day.

Like I said, 10 stars out of 5. Must book! I will be going back!

Great safari
5/5

We had a great safari with KAMar Safaris which covered 3 Tanzanian's national parks in 5 days (Udzungwa, Ruaha and Mikumi). The guide, Henry, was very helpful, and very safety oriented. We had a very good communication with Sylvia on almost all the trip (two of three accommodation places have Wi-Fi). I appreciated the flexibility of the KAMar Safaris team when we set the trip.

Brilliant and diverse safari in Uganda with Gatatu
5/5

Five members of a photography club went on a safari with Gatatu. We had very diverse experiences on that trip. We were driven by Stephen who was an excellent driver, very knowledgeable of the area and of the animals. His assistant Leonard was great company who also knew the area well.

To give you an idea; we were met at the airport and driven to a lodge by Lake Bunyoni, tranquil and beautiful. From there we drove to Queen Elisabeth Park to see the animals, elephants, lions, bock and more. Stephen and Leonard had a sharp eye and an encyclopaedic knowledge. We stayed in Irungo Forest Safari Lodge whilst exploring the park. A great place.

Other notable trips included the trek to the gorillas. That was sensational and well worth doing, brilliantly guided by expert trackers. Also we made a boat around the shore of lake Edward where the animals had come down to get water. That was an absolutely fabulous sight and also expertly guided by very knowledgeable people on the boat.

On the 5th day we were delivered back to the airport. There was great continuity in having the same driver. Accommodation was fantastic and very varied. The food was always excellent and no one experienced any problems with food related infections.

I would say Gatatu delivered a fabulous package facilitating all those experiences. It was excellent value for money and definitely lived up to, and exceeded expectations.

I have no hesitation in recommending Gatatu very highly indeed and would definitely return for more!

Very good tour operator
5/5


We had a fantastic time on our 12-day safari in Kenya and Tanzania. Everything was completely well organized, the accommodations were amazing and the driver guides tried to show us as much as possible during the game drives and, if possible, to respond to our requests. We would always book again with African Paradise Safaris and we can recommend this company to anyone who also wants to do a safari tour.

I had an efficient and very satisfactory experience with Falcon Services.
5/5

My booking was only for a few nights at A Zambezi in Vic Falls, but it was handled professionally and efficiently. We decided to change our booking before we arrived and that too was dealt with quickly and pleasantly.
Our stay at A Zambezi was a very wonderful. Our comfortable room had a beautiful view over the river, the service was exceptional and our breakfast was delicious. If we are ever in Vic Falls again, I will book A Zambezi again.

Great service mind
5/5

We went on a 3 days trip to Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya with Tazama.
This is a newly open company. But I can say, our driver, Anthony, is very full of experiences.

With 12 years of experiences of driving in every safaris in Kenya, our driver knows all the best routes in Masai Mara. We saw a lot of wildlife during our trip. It was one of my best memories in life.

On the way back to Nairobi, the road was full of mud because of the rain. The condition was really bad. We had encountered 6 road blocks because some cars stuck in the mud. But every time, our driver can control his land cruiser and take all of us through the obstructs. He knows all the shortcuts to get us to the city because the traffic is too bad.

In the end, we arrived at our hotel safely and faster than everyone else. We were really impressed by his driving skill and his knowledge of the park. Plus, he still remain calm and happy despite all the traffics, the rain, the 3 days of driving non-stop.

If I ever has a chance to go to Kenya again, I will definitely contact Tazama Holidays. I know I'll never be disappointed.

Great Tailor Made Safari in Botswana
5/5

I came across Safari Lifestyles through safaribookings.com and I'm very glad I did. I corresponded with Roger for several weeks before settling on an itinerary. Roger was a mine of information and was able to supplement and/or correct the information I had researched for myself. The result was that my wife and I enjoyed a superb tailor made safari in Botswana with an extension to Victoria Falls. Thanks Roger - great work!
