Excellent!
5/5

Michele was wonderful to work with. She was patient with our large group while we changed dates and plans. She was able to guide us through the process and ultimately planned the BEST vacation for us. Every detail from transport, to celebrating my Mom's birthday at every turn, to accommodations, tours and more was clearly thought out! I would highly recommend Michele and Indigo Safaris! You will not be disappointed.

Good service from agent; poor game drives
3/5

Booked 2 nights (4 game drives) at Xanatseni Lodge in the Klaserie Game Reserve, part of greater Kruger, through this company. Working with the agent was easy, and he was helpful with changing dates/last minute booking. The lodging, food, and airport transfer were great; however, the game drives (you know, the whole point of the thing) were pitiful. In fact, every person I told about my safari afterward was shocked that someone could see such few animals over four game drives, particularly during a peak month such as August, despite paying around $1000 for two nights and suggestion from my agent that the lodge was a solid place for animal sightings (I had expressed concern that it would not provide ample game viewing opportunities, and I was correct). I did not see a single predator—no lions, leopards, hyenas, wild dogs, etc. Only some rhinos and a hippo in addition to very common sightings like elephants, giraffes, zebras, etc. A couple of the game drives were oddly redundant/unproductive and each one started later than scheduled (two of them 30 minutes later because it was “too hot” and did not end any later). I actually saw the same variety of animals and some rarer ones (incl cats) during a single game drive in Etosha (organized separately). To be clear, I understand that a safari can be a game of odds, but it is hard not to feel ripped off after paying $1000 for sightings you could get during a drive from the airport, and this review will hopefully serve as a helpful data point for anyone trying to determine their odds in the future.

An Unforgettable African Adventure: Exceptional Experience with Indigo Safaris
5/5

We had an outstanding experience with Indigo Safaris! Kerry crafted our Kenyan trip to perfection, tailoring every detail to our preferences. Our adventure included game drives through Masai Mara, Nairobi National Park, Amboseli, and Tsavo West. In the middle of our journey, Kerry seamlessly arranged a visit to my aunt who lives outside of Nairobi. Kerry's advice was invaluable, particularly her suggestion to visit Lake Naivasha, which turned out to be an incredibly unique and worthwhile stop.

Every lodge we stayed at was exceptional, offering perfect accommodations, delicious food, and warm, welcoming staff. We truly appreciated Kerry's reliable guidance, sound advice, and excellent recommendations throughout the trip.

Our guide and driver, Jimmy, was phenomenal. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him—he was funny, down-to-earth, and made us feel completely safe. His driving skills are exceptional (navigating Kenyan roads is no small feat, lol), and he consistently demonstrated professionalism and punctuality. Jimmy also amazed us with his impressive animal tracking abilities and extensive knowledge of the local wildlife and bird species.

Overall, I cannot recommend Indigo Safaris highly enough. Although it was a significant investment for us, the trip truly delivered incredible value. When I consider how much many American families spend on a Disney World vacation, I’m confident that our African adventure was worth every penny as a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater & Tarangire combined Safari
5/5

Dickson our driver is a true gentleman and has been driving Safari trips for over 20 years. His knowledge about animals and the Reserves is hard gained and invaluable.

Other Safari drivers acknowledged him everywhere we went and it is obvious he is well respected.

We are a family of 3. My wife, my daughter and myself. We set off from a unique lodge in Arusha and travelled some 6 hours into the Serengeti.
Dickson made sure we saw animals and loads of them. Our Campsite was very remote but very comfortable and the staff were exceedingly helpful. The dinners were excellent. Congrats to the chef.

After 2 full days in Serengeti we moved to a lodge above the Ngorongoro Crater. It was clean and the restuarant /Canteen was big and spacious. Again staff were really helpful.

Dickson is such a safe driver. The Decent into the crater is steep and takes driving skills. We again saw a lot of wildlife within the crater.

The lodge at Tarangire is to die for. Wow the views worth the whole safari trip.

Would I book with Indigo Safaris again. 110%. Another country and another experience.

Created a memorable itinerary that exceeded our expectations
5/5

We gave Ines a budget for 6 pax and asked for an itinerary that included safari and beach in South Africa. The tour she created was amazing with 4 nights safari and 3 nights on the beach at Ballito. It exceeded our expectations and was great value for the budget we set. All transfers were included and perfectly reliable. Would highly recommend.
