Amazing Experience with a Very Knowledgable Guide
Just got back from our trip, we had a great week on the mountain. The team really helped a lot with everything, I don't think we'll be able to make it to the top without them. The food is amazing, can't imagine how they did it in that kind of condition. Our guide was very knowledgeable and experienced. We learnt a lot from him not only about the mountain but also the local society. Enjoyed everyday there, hope we can do it again sometime.
Thanks! Let's view Tanzania

Perfect Kenya Safari Tour with All Time Safaris
My mother and I went to Kenya for a Safari tour during Sep,11th to 18th,2017 with All Time Safaris.
Mr Kimetto is a very nice man with rich experience and patience, I always ask a lot of questions and modify our trip plan at any time, everytime Mr Kimetto can give me a satisfying answer and promt reply.
On the first day, we arrived at the airport very early in the morning, Mr Titus and Mr Gideon waited us outside the airport for a long time. Mr Titus introduced all the detailed infos to me and we discussed about the trip plan.
Our driver Mr Gideon is a very experienced guide with very good driving skill and I think he knows everthing about the animals and plants of Kenya. He made us see the Big Five and other amazing animals. He is very responsible for work, at the beginning two days, Mr Gideon is troubled with a toothache, then, during the night, he went to hospital to get his tooth pulled out so that he can work with better status.
Many thanks to All Time Safaris for giving us a very memorable and amazing safari tour in Kenya.

This was our first trip to Africa and it far exceeded our expectations!
We travelled to South Africa and Zambia in August. We were met at all arrivals making connections and onward travel easy. Cuan’s father Gerald met us at the Johannesburg airport and transferred us to our hotel in Sandton which was much appreciated.
The whole holiday flowed very smoothly without any hiccups.
The camps were exactly what we wanted, small, personal and in great locations. The wildlife viewing blew us away. We knew we’d see animals but the variety and numbers were unexpected.
For us the camps were part of the experience. Low key but high quality. The food, the comfort of the lodgings and the service were all top notch! We had our first game drive at Tafika and what a time we had. Leopard being chased by wild dogs and two lions mating. We had Hippos ho ho hoing on the river side of camp and Elephants wallowing on the other. Although it was busy viewing around Nkwali we saw plenty of wildlife including a large pride of lions all lounging in the grass seemingly oblivious to the game vehicles driving around them. As we returned to camp one evening we heard the most amazing roar down the valley just on sunset. I’ll never forget it!
And Potato Bush on the banks of the great Zambezi. Lion, leopard and wild dog and that view!
We loved the whole experience and hope to return one day. If we do we will most certainly use the expertise of Cuan and his team at Ubuntu Safaris.

Obed was very friendly, trustworthy and helpful throughout the experience.
Communication was not a problem at all because Obed's English ability is great as it was the language of communication. We were both able to easily understand each other. I was really impressed that the tour and assistance can be offered in different local languages included Swahili for those around the region. This is truly amazing! It was on early morning when I was met at the hostel and shown around Kigali including the Genocide Memorial. We then took the bus from Kigali to Gisenyi. Seeing Rwanda's landscape as the bus traveled through hills was breathtaking. The nature across the country is great with an amazing climate. The service was amazing throughout the experience and my expectations were exceeded. Thank you very much Kumbukumbu Tours and Obed for making my experience the best of the best!

Review about Greater Kruger by Jon & Lisa
Appropriately developed for the visitor and never felt overcrowded
Amazing experiences with Botswana wildlife
Had an amazing time with Australian photographer extraordinaire Ken Duncan and his lovely wife Pam (www.kenduncan.com) and a group of fellow photography enthusiasts from Australia, New Zealand and the UK organised by Patrick and Elaine Brakspear of African Encounter tours (www.africanencounter.com.au).
Our guides and their support team from Safari and Guide Services (https://sgsafrica.com/) did an awesome job of setting up our mobile camp from scratch in the Khwai community trust grounds adjacent to Moremi Game Reserve and looking after us so well while we were there. Then removing all indications of our having been there when the camp was over.
We spent three wonder-filled days around Khwai and Moremi viewing and photographing antelope, elephant, fish eagle, giraffe, hamerkop, hornbill, impala, lilac-breasted roller, kudu, leopard, lion and the list goes on. You can check out some of my images at https://www.flickr.com/photos/its_all_about_the_light/albums/72157693627282180 if you like.
Great teams looking after us. And really impressed with Botswana generally and the commitment to wildlife preservation rather than hunting since 2014. Looking forward to returning!

The walking safari was an unforgettable experience, so incredible I want to do it again very soon!
The journey was perfect from beginning to end. The travel agent, Liz Read, was so helpful and kindly answered all my doubts and requests during the planning of the journey. I have chosen to pick a walking safari with Leon Varley, which was the best choice I could have made. The walks are amazing (be prepared to walk approx. 20 km per day). Still, you won't get tired or bored because there is so much to see. The wildlife is amazing, we had the chance to see plenty of lions, elephants, giraffes, buffalo, impala, crocodiles, a huge diversity of birds, rodents and so on. I really recommend this trip if you are interested in exploring the bush in this wild and beautiful environment. This was my first safari and I don't regret doing it by walking. On the contrary, I really want to do it again! I was a lone traveller, so I highly recommend it to who is a lone traveller because all the accommodation is private and the interaction with the rest of the group was great. The camp is a bit rustic, but the tents are great with a lot of space and it has everything you need. Besides, Leon Varley's crew make you feel very confortable. The guide (Leon) and tracker (Obe) are very experienced, they explain everything about the environment, animal behaviour and make you feel safe to observe, take photos and enjoy all the beauty.

Phenomenal experience
We began our South African adventure in Capetown. We met friendly, warm and welcoming people, experienced great hospitality, all while being surrounded by natural beauty and stunning scenery. Driving the route to Cape of Good Hope offered great hikes with magnificent views of mountains and oceans along with some wildlife viewing. Next was the wine route with it's lovely vineyards, where hospitality was un-paralleled.
Our safari experience at Thornybush Monwana allowed us to see the Big 5 up close and personal many times over along with an untold number of other species. The knowledgeable guide provided amazing insight into the life and habits of these incredible creatures while the Chef provided meals that were second to none in a setting that allowed us to be fully immersed in nature with animals mere feet away from our deck.
Victoria Falls is one of the "seven wonders of the World". Having been to Niagara Falls many times, I can attest that Victoria Falls is in a class by itself and the Falls and Rainforest are a sight to see.
Al in all, a Phenomenal trip to a beautiful area with friendly people and diverse natural and animal world that we will remember fondly for years.

The highlight of our trip through Tanzania!
We went on safari with adventure makers this past week for 3 days and 2 nights and really loved our experience. . Stephen was really responsive in emails and friendly. He came to get us from the airport when we landed and brought us to our hotel. We visited Tarangire, lake Manyara and then Ngorogoro crater on the last day. We saw so much wildlife (Lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras) as well as a ton of different birds. Our guide was knowledgable, attentive and very kind. The Ngorogoro crater is absolutely breathtaking- you travel through multiple ecosystems before descending into a beautiful grassland filled with wildlife. Lunches were provided during the day and at night the place we stayed was very comfortable and provided good food. Adventure makers provided an affordable, high value experience and I can't recommend them enough.
