A wonderful time
Very good organization. The guide, James, was very nice, with great knowledge and love for nature. He talked very interestingly about animals and plants. Whenever needed, he was happy to help. Thank you very much and I hope we will meet again.
I recommend it with all my heart ❤️

Amazing
I contacted the organisor in March 2024 for some pricing plans for my trip in April 2024. They gave me different options, and I decided to go with the budget option: a 3-day Maasai Mara experience.
The company was very professional and responded to me very quickly. I was able to get all the necessary information, and my questions were answered promptly.
The travel was well-organized, and our driver was amazing. The roads were in poor condition, especially in the villages around Maasai Mara, but our driver (Richie) never got stuck and did his best to maneuver the bad roads. He was also very funny and gave us a decent explanation of everything. Thanks to his experience, we were able to get very close to the lions and could literally smell them. The driver (Richie) also had a radio that was used to communicate with the other drivers so that they could share the locations of the animals. Be aware that not all drivers have this radio, but ours did.
The accommodation was good, and the food was plentiful, albeit limited in options. Water was free during the tour, but drinks were paid for (this was also communicated upfront by the company).
Overall, I would rate this a wonderful trip, and I definitely recommend Jungleroam Safaris as your go-to. My next safari will also be with them!

most helpful operator I've came across
From the start I can not fault any communications we got with Enjoy Rejoice, all information was provided very accurate and exactly what we want, very reliable and trustworthy.
Excellent value.
On our tour to Serengeti Park we got minor car break down, and it could be not handled any better(replacement car was immediately arranged and our one was repaired in no time).
Very recomended

Excellent Honeymoon trip During Easter
We organized our honeymoon trip (Safari + Zanzibar) with Penuel Tours and safaris and didn’t regret it for a moment!
They put our trip together with a very short notice before the actual travel dates and still everything was perfect! It was amazing to be fully taken care of and to not have to worry about everything: transfer, accommodation, food. We only had to sit back and enjoy the ride in our beautiful honeymoon caps that we got as a gift from the company :)
Safari was of course the highlight of the trip, for both me and my wife it was an experience of a lifetime. And it all thanks to our amazing safari guide - Lucas. And having a good guide on a safari is the key to having a great time - as you literally spent all the time together.
During the whole trip he did his best to ensure we had a great experience without anything to worry. Even though it was a low season, he managed to find sooo many animals! He was always super polite, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about not only the animals, but also about the parks itself. He also always knew when to give us space and let us enjoy watching animals just in a peaceful silence. And it goes without saying - his driving skills were impeccable! Thank you Lucas!
We would definitely recommend Penuel Tours and safaris for your trip! Thank you guys!

Perfect match!
When expectations exceeded…
From the start you feel in good hands. Clive, the owner of Firefinch, has a long history of providing outstanding tours in Namibia and beyond.
The whole process of individual trip planning, payment and traveling was smooth and highly professional.
The trip itself was outstanding with the right mixture of sightseeing, driving, game drive and lodging.
I can fully recommend Firefinch.
We were traveling as a family of 6 members, aged from 12 to 79.
Also our very experienced guide and driver Stefan made the journey unforgettable.
We‘ll come back - for sure!

Off 2Africa made it perfect
Off2Africa was highly responsive from first inquiry, listened carefully to wants and needs in order to propose 8 day trip to safaris in Botswana and Zimbabwe as well as interlude in Victoria Falls. The remote and rustic safari camps fulfilled our expectations; the accommodations and food were terrific and the staffs were kind, helpful and friendly—loved both unique sites. What overwhelmed us was the coordinated transfers and transportation which involved at least 10 drives and 2 bush plane trips—every step was highly coordinated and synchronized. Many thanks to Sian at Off2Arica for making everything perfect and memorable.

Rogers goes above and beyond your expectations to make your trip amazing - thank you
I looked at various companies with travelling solo I wanted the reassurance that everything would go smoothly. I contacted a few companies for quotes and what was included. Rogers replied immediately with an itinerary and price, he even changed the itinerary twice to suit my needs and requirements. His quote was good value for money for what it included and he explained I wouldn't be sharing the safari truck with anyone else, so my personal tour guide and driver.
I messaged about visas, vaccinations, local schools, what to wear..... each time Rogers replied straight away, even at 1am in the morning when I messaged after work, which I was astonished at.
On arrival Rogers met me on time and we were straight on the road to get my currency in Entebbe town. Rogers negotiated a slightly higher rate, comparing 3 companies.
We stopped off at the garage to get fuel and plenty of water and drinks for the journey. Throughout the 5 days Rogers chatted away, I asked his background and experience over the years. He really knows his stuff and the areas so well, and has worked hard to get where he is now.
I requested to get sweets for the children as we went along, giving them out as they walked the miles to school. Rogers assisted with this, and guided me to which children, so rewarding to do this, the excitement on their faces.
Our first stop was the chimpanzee trek, this was unbelievable how we found a group, then trekked with the group of chimpanzees getting loads of photos and videos. Rogers had organised with my lodge from the previous evening to return early afternoon for a shower and change at no extra cost (Lake Nkuruba lodge). We even sat watching the many monkeys while eating the locally sourced pineapple Roger had got.
Next was the safari at Queen Elizabeth national park. We arrived at 6pm, and were scheduled to go on it next morning, Rogers said the pass was 24hrs, so if I wasn't too tired from travelling we could do an evening safari now. Thank god I agreed, straight away we saw an old elephant so close, then a leopard which Roger spotted, he has great eye sight as I would have missed it. The leopard was amazing to watch, walking through the grasses. We then had a young lion walk right by our truck as we pulled up. Breath taking. We saw more elephants and antelope. Well worth the evening safari. I stayed at Enshama Lodge that night, highly recommend as massive elegant rooms,value for money, full board, views of hippos and elephants on a morning, I was even awoken by the roar of a lion. Our safari drive next day was again spot on, seeing sleeping lionesses in the trees, then watching them climb down with their 2 cubs, truly spectacular to watch. Rogers moving the vehicle constantly to get the perfect view from the open top. Viewing more elephants and baboons, beautiful butterflies in one part too.
Next was very emotional, I bought over a case full of children's clothes, caps, backpacks, shoes, exercise books, pens, pencils, pencil sharpeners, etc... advised by Rogers what was most needed. We went to an orphanage association and met a lovely group of children. They were so pleased to get a small lolly each, they sang and danced for me in appreciation, I was in tears how grateful they were. Rogers then got the case out, their faces lit up. I will never forget this. If you get chance with having 2 cases permitted on your flight please do it, you won't regret it. I have chosen to sponsor one of the children to get a better education, every little bit helps.
Next onto the gorilla trek, words cannot describe this, Rogers had highly recommended a porter for my backpack and assist me up the hills. This was very much appreciated as you have to take your lunch and 4 small bottles of water plus your camera etc... and it's locals, so supporting the local community. We were extremely lucky and our first sighting was just a 20min trek. Within minutes the silverback had brushed past me, leaving me breathless, I never expected to get so close. The guide assisting me with photos and even took my mobile to take more shots while I used my camera. With being a solo traveller this was a major plus for me. Watching the gorillas was absolutely breath taking. I love looking back at the many videos and photos I took.
During the trip Rogers would buy us fruit and food from the local stalls, it was hilarious watching him barter for the best quality and price. Rogers makes you feel totally at ease so you can enjoy the trip to its full. I would highly recommend this company and especially Rogers to be your guide and driver. Nothing is ever too much trouble for him to organise. Thank you for an amazing trip of a lifetime. Happily answer any questions anyone has to assist. I hope to return in a few years for another trip with Rogers.

Friendly
I recently had the opportunity to embark on a journey with Danil Scenic Tours through Kenya, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From start to finish, the trip was incredibly well-organized, and I was impressed by the attention to detail and professionalism of the tour guides.
Throughout the journey, I learned so much about the culture, history, and wildlife of Kenya. The accommodations provided by Danil Scenic Tours were top-notch, offering comfort and luxury in the heart of nature.
Despite the many activities packed into each day, everything ran smoothly, and I never felt rushed or overwhelmed. Additionally, the warmth and hospitality of the local people left a lasting impression on me, making me feel truly welcomed and at home.
Overall, my experience with Danil Scenic Tours exceeded all expectations. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an enriching and immersive travel experience in Kenya.

Simon our Tour Operator was exceptional in every way.
Not only is Simon extremely knowledgable on the wildlife in Kruger National Park he has a deep knowledge about the history of South Africa. But more than that he is a great human being. His warm and friendly, he was exceptionally easy to talk to, approachable and very accommodating. He was more than happy to stop for us to take photos and answer every silly question we had. This is the only way to tour Kruger National Park. The whole process from start to end, booking the tour, the three amazing days we had in the park and our transport back to the airport was incredible! We could not recommend Simon enough and we will be back as soon as we can. Thanx again Simon you were the BEST!!!!!
