Andrew Sinclair was excellent, and also helped me out of a tricky situation in the Kruger N P.
I visited three safari Lodges in Zambia. Anabezi Lodge Lower Zambezi, and Luangwa River Camp and Kafunta in the South Luangwa Game Reserve. Had to cancel the Kruger Park section. The game viewing was exceptional. The accommodation was great and so was the food. The guiding was brilliant. Previously, most of my safaris were done with family. You can not beat having a knowledgeable guide, who knew what to look for. The rhino was the only one off the big 5 I did not see. However, going to Kruger would’ve solved the rhino problem. At Anabezi, I saw wild dogs for the first time ever, plus an actual kudu chase and kill they had made. Also, did a days tiger fishing on the Zambezi River.
There was an abundance off all animals, lions, leopards,hippos and buck etc. Value for money was better than expected. On top off all the game viewing, I was given a partial refund for the cancelled Kruger section to be used on a future safari trip. Hope to do this later. I can not recommend Safari365 more highly. They went well above what I was hoping for. Andrew, my contact, did a magnificent job. Well done Safari365.

3 weeks - Family of 4 travellers - First time in South Africa/Zim – Easy, Organised and memorable!
Our holiday with Safari365 was amazing. We will never forget our experiences. It was a trip of a lifetime.
Andrew organised it meticulously and worked with us over 2 months to guide us to balance our holiday between bush camps, cities and game reserves.
All accommodation, internal flights, transfers and hire cars were organised for us, which made travelling with a young family easy.
Andrew was very responsive to queries and checked in with us regularly throughout our trip. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he tailored our holiday to suit our family and budget. We couldn’t recommend Andrew enough.
Each of the places we have stayed had their own style and charm and we loved them.
The relationship and the educational experiences the guides provided for the kids and us adults will be remembered for the rest of our lives. The determination to see a leopard or lion cubs will be a lasting memory. The consistency of having the same guides really made the experience personal and allowed our kids to comfortably interact with the guides and wildlife.
We were able to relax when we needed too and the game drives at never got too much. The accommodation booked during the breaks from the bush camps allowed us to catch up on washing, have some down time and go sightseeing without feeling rushed.
It's not a matter of if we will visit Africa again but when! We wouldn't hesitate to call on Andrew and Safari 365 to help organise the next trip.

Best vacation ever - thanks to Andrew and Trevor-
My experience with the Safari365 Africa tour operator Andrew Sinclair for my vacation to Africa was absolutely incredible! From the moment my sister and I contacted them to inquire about a vacation we were impressed with Andrew Sinclair’s professionalism, thoroughness and attention to detail.
Andrew crafted a customized itinerary for us that perfectly matched our interests and preferences. He suggested the best places to visit, activities to do, and accommodations to stay at, ensuring that every aspect of my trip was tailored to our liking.
During our time in Africa, the concierge Trevor went above and beyond to make sure that everything ran smoothly. They were always ready to answer any questions. We felt safe and well taken care of throughout my entire trip.
Thanks to safari365 Andrew and Trevor , we were able to explore the stunning landscapes, vibrant cities, and rich culture of South Africa and Zimbabwe with ease and comfort. I cannot recommend them highly enough for anyone planning a vacation to beautiful Africa . Thank you for an unforgettable experience!
There should be more that 5 stars very deserving

The only tour operators I would recommend for Southern Africa.
Our family hadn't been to Southern Africa before (I had) so they were a bit nervous. Therefore, I wanted this trip to expose them to all the wonders of this part of the world but to always feel safe. Our wonderful consultant Andrew listened to our preferences and then added his own local knowledge and expertise and crafted the most exciting trip. He even joined us for a beer when we were in Cape Town. He fitted in with Australian time zones for phone calls and shaped up the itinerary into a wonderful two-week indulgence - there is nothing like local knowledge that you can trust. We went to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe (yes, my son bungee jumped 111metres off the old bridge!); Chobi National Park, Botswana; and Kruger Game Reserve & Cape Town, South Africa. We were picked up at airports and hotels/lodges always on time, we were indulged by the most beautiful and hospitable hosts and lovely venues, we ate amazing food, we saw beautiful natural panoramas and yes we saw the big five! I can't describe lying in bed at night and hearing lions roar within earshot! Cape Town blew us away and the trip down to the Cape of Good Hope was extraordinary. This has been an amazing experience we still talk about often. We will never forget it. We are definitely going back and most certainly organising it through Safari 365 (they aren't paying us to say that). Our Australian friends think we were brave and adventurous but little do they know we were in 5 star comfort and did not feel unsafe at all - except maybe the first time a lion walked past our open topped jeep! Definitely do it!!!

They were unbelievable.
From the initial contact to arrival back home they were always there to help, give advice and asking how things were going. They put the holiday we were dreaming off together, which can not be faulted. Will not hesitate to recommend them to anyone and certainly will be using them again.

Safari 365 is a remarkable tour operator and only provide the best in every aspect.
I recenlty completed a 10 day Safari in Tanzania with my family organized by Safari 365 and I cannot recommend them enough. The itinerary that Zannon put together was well planned and executed from start to finish. If we had to shorten our trip, it would have been very difficult to decide which area to eliminate. Each safari park offered an unforgetable adventure.
Logistics were perfectly organized that allowed us to relax without worrying in all the details. The accomodations were excellent and provided us different experience. Our favorite was Simbavati Grumeti; the service, people, food, ambiance were extra ordinary.
Trevor Stoutz of Safari 365 was available for us the whole time, he was professional, responsive patiently answering all our inquiries and went out of his way to assist on everything including handling our delayed luggage, made sure it was tracked down and delivered to our lodge.
Our guides (Mudy and Ronald) were the best. They had deep knowledge on the area, the animals and with great communication skills which made our safari experience exceptional. I like how both guides tried to involve our girls who are 11 and 14 years old. I also want to thank Safari 365 for putting something together to celebrate our daughter's birthday. Almost each accomodation had something arranged for her.
I am already thinking of our next Safari trip and would definetely do it again with Safari 365. They have made our first Safari experience one-of-a-kind.
Zannon Rocks! He interpreted the needs and desires of our family of 7 and then delivered!
Zannon James of Safari 365 deserves to be commended for all the effort, skill and talent he put into planning our (7 adults) family safari. We started out in Camp's Bay - hiking, mountain biking, touring the Cape, eating and drinking our way through Cape Town, Franshoek and Stellenbosh. Next we flew to Johannesburg. The accommodations at Arthol Place were PERFECT for our family - very attentive staff and incredible food! The JoBerg and Soweto tour was enjoyed by all 7 of us. Next - Four nights at Sabi Sabi Little Bush was great! We saw the Big Five after only one day, and added the Magnificent Seven before departing for Victoria Falls. Two nights worked well there as we really only wanted to see the Falls and enjoy a night out. Next we flew to Botswana for 2 nights each in Chobe and Okavango Delta. The helicopter ride between the two was a special treat. GREAT animal sighting as well. We loved the sunset Makuro canoe safari with so many elephants.
Each of the camps were well aware of the special dietary consideration of 2 of our family members. It was clear that Zannon had prepped all of our hosts. Every detail, from warm airport welcomes, easy transfers, very caring, friendly and professional staff made what could be an overwhelming process extremely easy and stress-free. Zannon listened to what was important to us and what wasn't and proceeded to tailor-make a most successful itinerary. We've been home 2 months and we're still on Cloud Nine!

Safari365 was outstanding; efficient, caring, friendly and knowledgeable staff.
We used Safari365 in 2016 and again in 2024 for our family adventures in South Africa, and both times, their service exceeded our expectations. We’re based in Australia and initially reached out to their Cape Town office via email. Our consultant, Zannon James, promptly addressed our safety concerns, incorporated our preferences, and organized a memorable South African experience for our family of five, including grandparents, parents, and our 9-year-old granddaughter, Poppy.
Zannon's expertise, combined with Safari365’s strong negotiating power and global reach, resulted in a well-curated journey at a reasonable price. Importantly, the price was quoted in AUD and remained consistent despite fluctuations in currency, and we were able to make the payment in Australia.
Safari365 also provided us with a personal concierge, Trevor Stoutz, who was available for our endless questions and made recommendations for hotel bookings, restaurants, and activities which were spot on. Trevor’s assistance proved valuable, and we enjoyed several dining options he suggested during our week in Cape Town; namely, La Colombe, Kloof Street House and The Chef’s Warehouse Beau Constantia.
During our stay at The Tintswalo Family Lodge in the Waterberg Reserve, we were impressed by the exceptional facilities, outstanding food and the excellent service. We came for the game and the drives were particularly noteworthy; our guide, Riian, expertly and safely showed us a wide range of wildlife from his open jeep, from ticks to majestic elephants. Poppy’s reaction—declaring that the safari experience was “better than Disneyland”—was a highlight for us as grandparents; Mission Accomplished; memories for life and all captured in a complimentary photo album. Thanks Safari365!!
