Great Experience!
I had the great pleasure of spending several days in the Okavango delta and our tour guide was Knowledge. I tend to ask a lot of questions about animals and nature and I was quite pleased that Knowledge could answer all of my questions! He and the other guides took us on several walking safaris. We tracked lion prints for a pretty good distance but when we came to a river the shorter people on the tour didn’t want to try to cross. I really liked walking with nature and while I was a little nervous because it is Africa after all and there are lots of wild animals, Knowledge and his crew reassured us and kept us safe. I would welcome the opportunity to go back and spend more time with Knowledge in Africa.

It was a perfect experience.
Arrangements in Victoria Falls and Hwange NP were perfect. The thorough communication made me very comfortable with the plan, especially being a solo traveler. Transportation to and from airports was timely. My guides at each location were professional, enjoyable and knowledgeable. My accommodations were comfortable and pleasant. I couldn’t have asked for anything more! Thanks to Joseph Mayo and staff for orchestrating a wonderful experience for me.

Wonderful experience!
We visited Kenya last year in December. We booked our tour via Kiboko Kenya Safaris. Clare helped us with the planning, made good suggestions, and was always quick and flexible when adjusting the tour according to our wishes.
The tour itself went like clockwork. Everything (lodges, transfers, flights) was arranged from a to z. Dexter, our guide, and Bill, who took care of some of the transfers, were very helpful and professional.
We had a wonderful and unique trip!
Should we visit Kenya again, then we will certainly contact Kiboko Kenya Safaris!

Our Safari was just excellent.
My mother and me spent 5 days in the Tsavo west and east national park.
We were really lucky with Allen and our safari guide Obama.
He did not hesitated to share his knowledge about the wildlife and also told us many things about the local life.
He patiently guided us through the huge park. We felt really comfortable and happy on our journey together :)
The lodges were just amazing, everything was organized really well.
The only thing for what I would wish an improvement is the staff's behaviour in our last lodge (Ngulia lodge in the west park). The food was ok, compared to the other two lodges nothing special and the staff was not very kind.
But all in all we had an amazing time. Thank you Allen and especially thank you Obama for this unforgettable journey !

3 Day Short Exciting Tanzania Safari
We had an extraordinary experience with connect African Safaris. At first we were hesitant to take this trip due to weather forecasting that it will rain but Sheikha convinced us to do so. We planned for a short time and we just decided to go to Africa!
The day started well because Msago, our tour guide was very early to pick us from our hotel. We had a discussion at the hotel lounge and he was very keen to know what animals we wanted to see and our overall expectation. We had some good laughs and thorough discussion on different aspects of wildlife because John and I adore animals. The lodges where we stayed were fantastic and so was the food. Msago had dinner with us the first night and we really loved the conversations. We are super proud that we booked with Connect African Safaris and are happy to recommend other travels to the team at Connect – Sheikha, Msago, Omar, and Hashim

This company is a scam.
Based on doing an 8-day self-drive tour with this company and subsequent communication afterwards, I have come to the conclusion that this company is a scam.
1) My assumption was that they had made all bookings in advance when I paid my fees. This was not the case. They told me they had gotten the start date wrong despite me getting a confirmation of the itinerary with the correct dates, but my suspicion is that this was to cover up the fact they hadn't made any bookings. Instead of making all the bookings on the day this error was found, the location for accommodation changed nearly every day. In only one case had a booking been made and payment completed before our arrival out of 7 overnight stays.
2) The places where we actually ended up staying was consistently changed to a hotel or lodge at a lower price point than what was advertised on the itinerary we used for booking.
3) Twice we ended up having to pay for the stay ourselves (conveniently the 3 most expensive nights of the trip) and the company still hasn't reimbursed us despite repeated requests over the last month. The stress of never knowing if a booking had been made was a detraction from our trip. If we hadn't paid already, we would have set everything up on our own, but we were trying to get him to pay for accommodations whenever it was possible.
I have filed a complaint with the Namibia Tourism Board about Enrico's Tours and Safari World Tours, since they changed their name but are still the same operation.
All this said, you should absolutely go to Namibia because it's an incredible and magical place. But absolutely DO NOT book through Enrico's Tours or Safari World Tours.

Incredible Safari Experience With Best Day Safaris!
I just completed my 5 day northern Tanzania Safari today, and it was incredible!. I booked via Mohji Travel, who in turn booked me on local operator; Best Day Safaris. Both Mohji and Best Day were excellent! Mohji handled the booking and scheduling smoothly, plus met me at my hotel the day prior to setting out, to give me a 1-on-1 full briefing which didn't just include a review of the 5 day itinerary, but also a review of my packing/gear, and tips on what colours to avoid wearing, to avoid Zhetzy flies! (Note: avoid blues and blacks!). The actual safari itself was incredible. Though i was a single traveller, I joined a fun group of three others and had a great time! Best Day are seasoned operators and they properly know their stuff. Every detail, every meal, and every day was planned well. Our guide/driver, Sixxy, had years of experience in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tangerie, and Lake Manyara. He knew where to spot the animals and what times of day/conditions you would most likely find them in. He was so good with his behavioural knowledge of lions that when we came upon a male and a female on the first day in the Serengeti, he knew to drive on the other road (where all the other operators/trucks were NOT going) because he knew we'd get a far closer and better view of the beautiful male lion, from that point. It completely made my day, to get so close! On day #3 we also got so close to a family oylf elephants that we could see deep into their eyes when they looked our way. Sixxy, and our chef Emmanuel provided for everything we needed, and Emmanuel's meals were inventive and filling, giving us enough energy for every day's animal spotting! We saw so many animals it was hard to believe - including lions rhinos elephants leopard baboons verver-monkeys ostriches hippos and too many more to name here. I would recommend Big Day Safaris and Mohji to anyone who wants an experienced, thorough, and great value Safari in Northern Tanzania.
