Excellent flexible personalized service
Rosemary and Monika provided us with all the information we needed to make decisions about where we wanted to go and where we could stay. When we had concerns even in the last month, they worked with us to come up with a plan we were comfortable with. The places we stayed were all excellent; the transfers were seamless. When we had questions, the responses were prompt. When we did research on our own, they incorporated our ideas and crafted a program that adapted to our specific needs. We were not part of a group, just a couple travelling together. They created an itinerary which was crafted for our specific needs so we didn't end up traveling with others, but met whomever else happened to be at the same camp on that day. They made the trip worth every penny and then some.

Wonderful honeymoon with The Safari Source
We booked our honeymoon with The Safari Source and could not be happier. Together with Monika we agreed on a tailor-made itinerary that was just perfect for us. Monika send us recommended lodges based on our ideas and wishes and organized all the lodges, transports and extra activities.
We visited three camps in Botswana, the Victoria Falls and Hwange National Park. The camps were amazing and all the flight and bus transfers were well organized.
We had an amazing time and would highly recommend The Safari Source!

Again absolutely perfect Tailor made Tour trough Botswana and Zimbabwe
We booked this year again with Monika and Rosemary at The Safari Source. The journey brought us this time to the lovely Okavango Delta, to Khwai, Chobe and Victoria Falls. The booking process and Service - when we where on tour - was outstanding. The Safari Source has a very good Price Money Value, even you choose the more expensive Lodges. Monika and Rosemary Travel regularly to the Camps and Lodges as you can feel this during your own Holiday. Everything on our Safari was planned very well (as well the Flight and Bus transfers). Rosemary was follow us in the background and checked twice how we are and feel. So twice we meet some travel agents they ask us how everything worked out. By planing the tour, Monika and Rosemary helped us to get a tailor-made Safari trip. They giving us very good Inputs to find lodges that fit our needs the best. Both where just great, even with the distance it was no problem to call or whatsapp. I will definitely recommend them to all people how Plan a safari holiday. Even us, we will book our next Africa Safari Adventure trough them again (maybe soon for next year).

Outstanding Service
The Service of Safari Source was outstanding. A big plus was that I could communicate with Monika in German. We had a whats app call I could her explain what I want. One day later she already sent me offers via email.
I used this company for the first time and I would highly recommend to everybody.

Perfect understanding from the first day
From the beginning, Monika understood what I wanted to do, what sites in Zimbabwe I wanted to visit and what my budget was, so I did not need to contact other companies and compare. Their suggestions were great, a perfect combination of lodges and bush camps, game drives and walking safaris. The companies which she works with are serious, have good professionals and take care of the details. Everything went according to plan and without setbacks. It is clear that you can hire accommodation and safaris directly on the internet, but it takes time and, in my case, to organize all the transfers, thanks to The Safari Source, I was able to get away from all this by leaving it in the hands of Monika and Rossemary. I highly recommend the services of The Safari Source

Excellent service from "the Safari Source", well chosen and varied accommodations and above all nice
We had a successful tour of Zimbabwe, excellently organized by the nice and professional ladies at the "Safari Source". They could not have done a better job.
We met friendly people in Zimbabwe, had excellent accommodations with varied food and loved the wildlife in the National Parks.
It was a ride without any negative events, apart from the annoying border crossings. We have always felt comfortable.
So Rosemary and Monika thank you very much!

Outstanding service!
We used Safari Source for the second time and yet again the service was outstanding. The digital itinerary was new this time and very nice to wet the appetite in advance. The safari itself - in Botswana with 3 locations - ran very smoothly and each lodge/camp was superb in its own way. We would highly recommend this company.

Amazing trip
We knew that it is very difficult to book directly by hotels. But Monika made it easy for us:she built for us an excellent safari plan.We did not have any headache with bookings as she made it all for us. Everything went like we wanted and we had a wonderful time in Zimbabwe without worries. She did an excellent job and she is very pro client.

Monika was extremely helpful in preparing our trip in Zim. Her recommendations were perfect! Thanks
The selected lodges were fine, especially Miombo Lodge with its animated water pool, full of elephants & buffalos. Thanks Monika also for the reservation of the Isuzu Big Horn 4WD at a reasonable price. The whole trip worked out as planned. The Safari Source is a reliable company.

Personal experience with fulfilling wishes beyond expectation
We spent 2 months travelling through Zimbabwe, Botswana and Namibia. Although it was during the most busy season - Christmas and New Year, TSS organized us a lot of lodges we could enjoy all by ourselves. If it was a tent in a national park or a stone cottage with the most amazing view, we always felt like we were someone special. The organisation was terrific, from the time we stepped into the plane in Oslo, there was not a single minute someone didn't take care of us. Even when we had half a day waiting in Harare Airport for the return flight, they arranged us a personal driver who took us into the city for some lunch and last minute shopping. We really appreciated that since we wouldn't leave our expensive video- and camera gear out of sight.
We did a lot of travelling before this Africa trip, but we never felt so safe and taken care of.
We got pleasantly surprised so many times, also since we do a lot of photography, we could take close-ups of the most amazing bird-life, a cheetah walking next to our car for more than an hour, and a baby rhino in a national park. We will most definitely book an Africa trip with TSS again. I personally don't think someone can organize it any better. Thanks again to the girls of TSS.
