Amazing!
Let me start by saying that the Kruger 4-day safari with Wild Wings Safaris (WWS) was the BEST EXPERIENCE of my life!!
Before booking with WWS, we reached out to 6 other tour operators for similar safari options. Most of them were more expensive than what WWS was asking for pretty much the same thing (transport from/to Johannesburg, accommodation in the park, food, and guide for 4 days). We decided to book with WWS due to our limited budget. I didn’t know what to really expect to be honest. Here's what we got:
1- Our guide Sam was simply the best (24 years of experience)!! By day 2, we had already seen 4 of the Big 5. We saw animals up close which was UNREAL! Sam knew Kruger by heart! If you ever get Sam as a guide, consider yourself the luckiest person ever!
2- Jacques (our private cook) was wonderful! He cooked us homemade traditional South African meals every day for breakfast and dinner! I totally did not expect that! I knew that breakfasts and dinners were included, but I though it was going to be something really basic like sandwiches (which I would’ve been fine with). However, what we got was FAR from what we expected!
3- Transport from/to Johannesburg was great! Drivers showed up on time and the cars were comfortable and modern!
This safari was worth every penny spent. Please save your money and avoid overpaying by booking with different tour operators. In terms of cost/value, you can't go wrong with WWS!
Highly recommended!

An excellent experience!
We had three days safari in Amboseli and Tsavo Vest. Our excellent tourguide and schaffeur Sam was so nice, kind and caring. He told us all about the area and the animals. We didn't see all the 5 big, but we saw the leopard and then we were happy.

A great experience with very professional guide
We had a wonderful time and were very impressed with our guide who seemed to have eyes in the back of his head as well as everywhere else. His spotting ability was amazing. His name is Abdulli, and I would thoroughly recommend you to request him if you are booking such a Safari.
The Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Creater were amazing. The food was very good and plentiful. The days were very full with an early start. We were very ready to set up camp when the day was over as we felt we had a very full day. Abdulli was always very keen for us all to have the maximum amount of time in the parks and was very keen to find us all the wild life he possibly could

Incredible!
We had a wonderful time and Jonathan was a very knowledgeable guide - making sure we saw all of the Big 5 and loads more. The highlight was seeing 6 lion cubs walking past your truck!
Ashnil was great, lovely staff and no shortage of good food! The tents were brilliant with a great pool and view of Hippos and crocs in the river.

Wonderful exploration of TZ to Mikumi National Park and throughout the safari tour.
The expertise of the company was greatly appreciated, when we were persuaded to visit Mikumi over Selous due to the rain the area had recently experienced. Our guide Hassan was very polite and provided us with local food options while driving to the park and returning from it. The ride to the park allowed us to see so many towns and take in the views of the countryside. The cabins inside of the park were comfy and clean. As for food, I took advantage of the delicious fish option during my stay. We had the opportunity to see so many of the animals including antelope, wildebeest, baboons, elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippos, etc. The weather was dry and the land rover easily maneuvered over the terrain. The scenery of the mountains in the horizon, the wildlife, and the vegetation were beautiful.

Trip of a lifetime! Wonderful experience! Great people!
Our safari with Tanzania Choice Safaris could not have been better. Our guide, Kakaseii, was experienced, knowledgeable, and fun to be with. There are many places to safari in Africa and many safari companies to choose from; picking the right one makes all the difference. Our Tanzania Choice guide knew exactly where to take us, he knew how to drive the sometimes difficult roads, and he knew how to find the wildlife we hoped to see. Our trip was to the Serengheti and Norangano Crater and we saw literally millions of animals including lions, elephants, zebras, hippos, giraffes, bison, wildebeasts, hayenas, cheetas, and ever a rare rhino, among others. We also saw dozens of varieties of birds that were beautiful. The camps that Tanzania Choice arranged for us were wonderful with great sleeping accommodations and great food. This was the trip of a lifetime, but if we ever choose to safari we would definitely book again with Tanzania Choice. Tanzania Choice was very easy to work with and they went out of their way to accommodate us in every way. A great business to work with. Thank you Kakaseii and Brenda!

Fantastic experience! Absolutely recommend this Tanzanian-owned company!
My partner and I worked with Zohar to design a 5-day safari in northern Tanzania. Lilian was always prompt and extremely helpful in our email communications, ensuring that no request was left unanswered and all of the details of the itinerary were to our liking.
It was important to us to work with a Tanzanian-owned tour operator. This gave us confidence that the money we spent would benefit the local economy. As an added benefit, the recommendations Lilian gave us for cultural activities were interesting, culturally sensitive, and appropriate.
This was my third safari experience and it was by far the best I've ever had. Our guide Ahmed was world-class. He had incredible expertise to share about the ecology and species we viewed, and struck the perfect balance between keeping us safe and ensuring we had a great time! by the end of our trip, he felt like a dear friend. Our accommodations and Land Rover were extraordinarily comfortable.
The entire team went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. We happened to be in Tanzania for Valentine's Day, and they dropped off chocolates, wine, and roses at our hotel as a gift for us. This is but one example of the fantastic service we received.
In short, look no further than Zohar for your next safari experience!

10 day safari
We did a 10 day safari from the 1st to the 10th of Feb 2020. It was a lifetime experience I found matoke tour's online and just crossed my fingers and hoped for the best, they were fantastic from the place's we stayed to our driver everything went so well. Murchions falls was fantastic, we got to do a village walk which I loved and the swamp walk was excellent, all guide's we met and to be honest all the uganda people were so lovely, I have to say the high point was the silver back's you must not miss the opportunity to see them , I can not put into word's the amazing, breathtakingly experience it was do not miss it. Im a woman of 48 not exactly fit but no bother with the walk up. I also travelled in Uganda for 2 weeks by myself and felt very comfortable it really is a safe country. Anyone thinking about going and doing the safari with matoke tour's I would recommend the no problem, my advice to anyone is BOOK IT JUST GO to this wonderful place.
