Sharing is caring
The tour has been living up to many not t say all of my expectations and I truly feel reloaded with good energy. Maximum respect t our guide/driver/ cook and foster dad David and Martin who made all this exploration of Africa happen.Professional, smiling, caring, 0% stressfyl,well informed and so funny! As passionated as Llyod our guide in Kruger Park I send many thanks and praises t them all. Go and look it up for urselves! Its a one time experience which has built ground rooted links with the local and most of the other passengers who shared the same idea of travelling through out South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia.

Great Safari Experience!
We were extremely happy with our safari. Itinerary was great and we were kept busy while still having some down time. Guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and adjusted the plan based on weather. He also kept us very optimistic considering we had two days of rain!
Tents were clean and dry. Bathroom facilities were fine for us who are non campers and kept clean throughout our stay.
Food was delicious and lots of variety. the chef was also very accommodating with people's various dietary restrictions.
Sharing stories around the campfire with a glass of wine in the evenings was also a highlight.
Thank you!

Amazing and Unforgettable Experience
Going to a Safari with Selous Tours was one of the best choices I've ever made. Our guides were amazing, experienced and very resourceful - we were able to see lots of different animals because of them. They knew what they were doing.
Staying in the campsite at Andover Reserve was also an important part of the experience - we had amazing moments there to share our impressions, experiences and having a few drinks. The whole crew - guides, cooks, drivers - was extremely friendly, good people to talk to and to have a good time.
Last but not least, all the service was done in a very professional way - equipment, schedule, punctuality, meals (delicious, by the way), driving, etc.

Unforgettable African safari experience.
Our 4 day tour including Animal Rehabilitation Centre, 2 day Kruger safari, sunset safari and Blyde River Canyon was much more than we expected and could have imagined. Cannot stress enough how much value we got for our money.
Yes, the animal sightings are based on timing and luck (and an amazing guide) and we had all on our side. The first Kruger day was absolutely unforgettable. We saw the big 5, plus a cheetah and the quality of sightings were amazing! Our guide had been in the industry for over 22 years and he's experience definitely helped us. He's communication with the other guides to find out where animals were, he's driving to give us the best view spots and he's sightings of animals, made our experience the best it possibly could have been.
The living quarters were more than we expected and the food absolutely delicious.
100% would recommend this tour!! Would love to do this again!!

Great safari in Kruger Park with a perfect guide, good food and camp
We participated in the safari in Kruger Park in October. Our guide Loyd has incredible background knowledge about the park and the animals in it. We could always ask questions to the seen. In addition, he has a great sense of where the animals could be. Thank you for the great pictures we made. Big thanks go to Loyd, who found an alternative due to the closure of Orpen Gate and did a great job on two stressful days!
The tents in the camp near the National Park are clean and you can stand inside. The camp in general makes a very good impression. The food was delicious every night and the atmosphere was familiar.
We enjoyed every minute and would return anytime. Greetings from Germany.

Incredible small group tours with amazing people!
I did the 4 days Kruger tour and the 8 days Botswana and Victoria falls tour. On both my tours, we were only 4 people which meant that we got to make really meaningfull connections with the other travellers, our guide was able to adapt the itinerary to our specific wants and needs and we had plenty of space in the bus and the tents! Before, during and after the tours, the communication with Sealous Safari was great. They made sure to remind me by email of the upcoming tour and always confirmed the pick up point and time, the itinerary and the material needed the day before starting the tour. More over, they make you fill out an evaluation form at the end of each tour so you can give them your comments and they actually take them into consideration to improve their tours. All the members of staff that I have met (drivers, guides, cooks and booking agents) were helpfull, friendly and knowledgeable. They were always there to answer questions and help you make the most out of your experience. Accomodations, activities and food were great. Of course, its camping so we had to pitch our tent, sleep on mats and help cooking but that made the experience that much more enjoyable. The only things that were deceiving are that the informations on their website are not updated and the breaks they take while driving are too long. Other than that, my expectations were met on all fronts and even exceded. Great value for money. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is up for a good camping trip in the African bush!
