James & Jimmy are really helpful in planning and executing the safari and communication is prompt.
All the accomodations are great.
Jimmy is super skilled as a driver on really difficult roads and his animal spotting skills are excellent along with information given about animals. All safaris start on time and are wonderfully and safely executed.
My only issue was with the food options at the camp in Amboseli. And the food given on budget safaris is less too. Carry snacks if you are a big water.
Memorable Tanzania Safari For A Solo Traveller
From the very early stages of our communication, Mary from Gilmag Safaris was a professional tour consultant who understood what I wanted and designed a few packages for me to choose from. Frequent contact and continuous feedback in order to deliver the best possible itinerary was the reason I trusted Gilmag Safaris for my safari experience.
Not only did Mary provide an excellent and comfortable trip, but she also stayed in touch with me in order to make sure that everything went as planned.
The guide, Prosper, who picked me up on arrival was incredibly knowledgeable and gave an amazing start even prior to entering the park. I was given vast knowledge about the area, the animals, and the experience that fueled my imagination.
The three accommodations (Moivaro, Maramboi and Kubu Kubu) that Gilmag Safaris arranged for me were fantastic. The staff were wonderful and attentive. I had the same tour guide each time - who was extremely knowledgeable and very nice. Everyone I met went the extra mile to attend to me.
By the end of the trip I was already planning on returning to Tanzania! I highly recommend Gilmag Safaris no matter what your trip purpose is. I will definitely use them for my next adventure!

An excellent tour provider - every effort made to ensure a wonderful and trouble-free holiday
We made a return trip to Zimbabwe 25 years after last going there. Our research suggested that this time we needed to partner with a tour company and Mana pools.com proved a good choice. A whatsapp call with Ant Bown established an itinerary which was refined with a further call and messages - 4 nights camping at Mana Pools and a further 2 days sailing on Lake Kariba. Ant provided us with a fully equipped 4x4 vehicle and linked us with a driver who would also manage the logisitics of travel, setting up camp and catering and generally trouble shooting. This worked very well. We were able to relax and watch the countryside roll by while our driver negotiated the potholes and traffic. At Mana Pools we camped by the Zambezi in a comfortable tent with basic but adequate amenities near by. The camp is unfenced and we were visited by an elephant investigated our dinner table on the first night and every night by grazing hippos. We also had to watch out for monkeys stealing our food and belongings. We woke at dawn each day to go for a game drive and we would go out again at the end of the day. The game was plentiful and we saw most of the larger animals in the park, inluding many elephant, a pride of lions, and a pack of rarely see wild (painted) dogs. During the middle of the day we relaxed in camp, watching birds and the life of the river. As we visited in early March, we were ahead of the main safari season and had the camp almost to ourselves. It would have been more crowded in subsequent months. We also had hotter weather than during the winter months, with temperatures well into the 30sC during the day. For the last part of our trip we transferred to Kariba to spend 2 days sailing on the lake in Greg Hall's catamaran Biriwiri. Being on the water was cooler but we had to watch out for sunburn from above and below (reflected off the water). Highlights of the trip included camping on an island with dinner on the beach and barefoot walks, game spotting from the boat with wonderful sightings of a baby elephant with it's family group and a parade of bull elephants crossing from an island to the mainland ahead of us, a swim in the lake (well away from the crocodiles) and sleeping under the stars on the deck of the boat. We spent a night at each end of the trip in the Sunbird Guesthouse in Harare, headquarters of Manapools.com, the first night incuding an alfresco dinner with Ant and our driver to run through the itinerary. Manapools.com did a great job for us.

Minneh is great! very patient and just the right amount of interactive. Very good time
We did the midrange 3 day Jambo tour. The safari was wonderful and the accommodations were great! loved the hotel and the food they served. Our tour operator was very nice and made sure we saw the big 5, except the Rhino but he did look for it for us!

The best
Six years ago we went to Tanzania, where we met Mollel. We had a great time and build a good connection togheter. We kept in touch and dicided to go back, back to all the good memories.
We arrange everything with Mollel by WhatsApp. We told our wishes and budget. A few weeks later, Mollel came with a complete schedual ( activities and accomodations ). We change a few things togheter and then we where good to go!!
The reunion was special and heartfelt. Mollel picked us up and stayed the next days with us. We also had a private chef who travelled with us and gave us 3 good meals a day!
The last 3 days we should travel 'alone', but we asked Mollel to be also our gide for these days (hard and too early to say goodbye already). Mollel arranged it and completed the wishes we had.
It was again hard to say goodbye, so hopefully we get the chance to go back one day!❤
Book the trip, it's the best experience!

Perfect personalized safari
This safari tour was an experience I will never forget- it was by far one of the best experiences of my life.
Everything was quite well planned for us down to fine detail! The food and accommodation was lovely. Our tour guide for the Safari (Amani) was superb; always checking that we were OK and helping us to see all animals we had on our list!
The overall service was excellent and so I was very happy with Kanje Grand Tours!

Amazing 8 days in Rwanda
Just came back from an 8-day Rwanda Gorillas and Wildlife Safari with Engagi Safaris and this amazing trip was nothing short of extraordinary.
Before my journey started, Ruthie was patient and knowledgeable in helping me tailor my itinerary. And from the moment I set foot in Kigali, Robert's warm smile and extensive knowledge of the country's history, culture, and wildlife instantly made me feel welcome and at ease. Throughout the journey, Robert went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of this safari was seamless and memorable.
The itinerary curated by Engagi Safaris was a perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and cultural immersion. Highlights included gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park, where Robert's expertise and passion for conservation added depth to the experience. Witnessing these majestic creatures in their natural habitat was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I will cherish forever.
Additionally, my visits to Nyungwe Forest National Park, Lake Kivu, and Akagera National Park provided a diverse range of experiences, from thrilling chimpanzee tracking to serene boat cruises and adventurous game drives.
Throughout the tour, Robert's professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for my well-being were evident. His enthusiasm for sharing Rwanda's beauty and heritage with us was infectious, and his dedication to providing top-notch service truly exceeded my expectation.
Engagi Safaris proved to be a reputable and reliable tour operator, with seamless logistics and well-planned activities. From comfortable accommodations to delicious meals and efficient transportation, every aspect of the tour was thoughtfully arranged.
Overall, my 8-day Rwanda tour with Engagi Safaris and guide Robert surpassed all expectations. I highly recommend this unforgettable journey to anyone seeking an immersive and enriching experience in the heart of Africa.
Thank you, Engagi Safaris, and a special thank you to Robert, for creating memories that will last a lifetime.
