We found Indigo Safaris after sending an enquiry through Safari Bookings. Lindie Janse Van Rensburg was our consultant. She made the whole process easy and was always prompt with replies to our questions. Absolute professional. Would highly recommend this tour company. Thank you so much, we had a fantastic time at Thakadu River Lodge in Madikwe game Reserve.
We enjoyed ourselves tremendously. Thank You Indigo Safaris. Thank you specialist Judy Burrows! We reached out to Indigo Safaris via Safaris Booking platform owing to their (Indigo) various interesting itineraries.

As a first-time, solo, female traveler for a fly-in Tanzania safari, I could not have chosen a more professional and easy to work with travel agent. Ines Mooseman proved to be knowledgeable in all aspects of my trip, from securing a Tanzania eVisa, to light aircraft flights within the country, to detailed descriptions of the camps I would visit.
Ines also quickly responded to my questions rega ... Read morerding game drives/vehicles, dining and, in general, what I could expect at the Foxes' Rufiji River Camp in Selous Game Reserve (Nyerere Nat'l Park) and their Ruaha River Camp in Ruaha Nat'l Park. She also listened to what I had to say--something I consider vital in traveler-tour agent relationships.
Thanks to the efforts of Ines and Indigo Safaris, I'm determined to take another safari next year.
Whilst we didn't end up going on a tour with Indigo Safaris I wanted to write a short review to say how amazing and responsive Kerry Wyatt and the team were. We set them an almost impossible task and Kerry was on to it and came back with excellent options. From that experience I would have no concerns booking a tour with Indigo Safaris when we go to Africa.
Lindie from Indigo Safaris was amazing in organising us the perfect safari and seamless transfer from Johannesburg to Madikwe. Lindie was always so quick to respond and advise us so I'd definitely recommend booking through Indigo Safaris. In terms of our Safari, the team at the lodge, accomodation, food and safari drives and guides were absolutely fantastic and the whole experience was definitely ... Read morea highlight of our trip!
We had our family trip to South Africa in Jan 2023 which was so impeccably planned by Kerry Watt with months of discussion and changes to the very close of the trip. Kerry was very professional in managing our expectation and accommodating to heaps of changes that we made. Kerry, we love your patience and cheerfulness in doing all of these changes with a big smile....so amazing!
The whole ... Read moretrip was well designed with care and consideration for the young and the old for the excitement and the relaxation to enjoy the journey. We enjoyed the beautiful Hermanus beach hike and fabulous scenery (wish we had taken Kerry's advice to stay extra day to enjoy more) and the awesome safari experience at the fabulous Kapama Game Reserve Resort and we were so pampered by the service team as well that we did not want to leave the resort so soon! Not forgetting...the beautiful Cape Town, winelands tours, Graskop tours & etc. All in all, we had a fantastic time in South Africa...kudos to Kerry for orchestrating this whole trip so thoughtfully !
I had already recommended my friends back in Asia to make a trip to South Africa and insisted that they should sign up with Indigo Safaris!!
My family of 5 had just completed a two week trip in South Africa, organized by Kerry from Indigo Safaris.
A few things that I find impressive of Indigo Safaris:
-The trip was very well organized. Everything went smooth and there were no delays.
-Kerry was prompt in our communications back and forth, despite us having about 80 emails by the end of the trip!
-Kerry was very flexible in ... Read moreplanning the tour itinerary, we had lots of changes before and even during the trip, and it was not an issue. Kerry made sure to explore all options in order to suit our preference the best.
-The costs were transparent and well-communicated during our discussions. No hidden fees or surprises.
Desperate to be back on safari ASAP after lockdown and with the keywords of elephants, Amboseli, tented camps and driver guide, we asked Indigo Safaris to propose a Kenyan safari for 6 weeks time in June 2022.
2 emails and a day later we had our dream 14-day itinerary from the highly proficient and cheery Kerry, detailing extensive safaris in Masai Mara, Amboseli and Tsavo East. Sadly, we had to ... Read more postpone twice to October but Kerry dealt with our rebooking, questions and prevarications with a smile and speedy efficiency. Thanks, Kerry, you're amazing.
Kerry organised everything perfectly, from the remarkable local driver guide Daniel of Explorer Kenya to the choice of locations and accommodation (for details see www.tripadvisor.com/Profile/138kevanw).
The safari destinations were wonderful in every way, although the mass migration had left us behind by October. A short stopover between the national parks was at Lake Naivasha, including a boat ride and walking with the animals, and a guided bike ride and hike through Hell's canyon.
Highly recommended are the Enkorok Mara Camp, in the Masai run by the exceptional and helpful Faith, and the Tulia Amboseli Safari Camp with stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro, probably the best situated camp ever.
A personal driver guide means that you can watch the wildlife for as long as you want - and we certainly did. We saw hundreds of elephants in total but we could also just sit and observe their behaviour for hours if we wished.
In the beginning, we were a little concerned that Indigo Safaris' claimed expertise and super feedback might just be too good to be true.
I am happy to report that Kerry and Indigo Safaris are exceptional and deserve their accolades and more. A wonderful experience worth every penny.
We are still thrilling to this latest time in Africa, months later, with its marvellous people, scenery and wildlife.
We will be going back again soon - and always with Indigo Safaris!
