Guide super , organisation terrible
2/5

if it were only for the guide (Thomas) I would give top marks(we saw all the big five and several action of animals). super, he made us experience the Serengeti to the full
I will give two star for the company.
Mr Amos, the owner, gave a jeep to the driver with almost 500,000 km
every day was a problem:
radiator broken(the streets are bad that’s true, but also the car), fuel missing. all this wasted 4 hours(almost one day of game drive, who refund me this?)
mr amos made me pay the balance 150 euros (when it was 112 dollars) telling me that for him changing euros was expensive (the rate exchange is 1€=1.10$)
He also charged 5% of transaction fee(other companies make 3%)
what's even more serious: on the first and last day we had different accommodation compared to the itinerary that we paid. (of lower quality)
The last one was awful (ngorongoro inn): no light and electricity for hours.
if you want to live an “hakuna matata" experience don't book with “migration venture Africa”
I renew my compliments to the guide Thomas. super

Unorganized
2/5

Well, we made a safari tour from 22 of august to 24 of August of 2023
And our experience was not that great !
I was traveling with my wife, and Amos the contact of us, since the beginning was very impatient and changed a lot of things.
First of all, it was planned to stay in a particular hotel mid range, and we book 4 months in advance.
And 3 days before we arrive they changed our hotel because told that hotel was full!!!
Very unorganized the company!!
Besides that it’s was arranged that we were going to pay by transfer, and Amos again changed what he had combined and told 1 day before that we had to pay in cash…
After all they told a 3rd different hotel to the guide and we were driven to the wrong place after the first safari !!
The second day the same thing happened and the hotel was told that we were going to stay just one night there ! What was not arranged !

The guide was great ( boni) but I don’t recommend this company because the assistance is very bad !!

Dear Henrique, Hope you are doing great.
To be sincerely we would like to apologize for not satisfying your trip as per your perception.
To clarify on your first complain was that you were not satisfied with the abrupt changes that happened on your accommodation as it was planned. Truely we tried to our level best to find you the best accommodation places but unfortunately they were fully booked we again say sorry for not updating on the last minute changes that happened.

About the payment arrangements we usually advice clients to pay some deposit in order to hold the booking, and the rest of the amount should be cleared seven days before the starting date of the tour. So for this case if the client does not make the payment then we advice that they come with the cash because it normally takes long time for the money to reflect on our account. We again apologize for this Henrique.

To conclude this, we would like to say thank you once again for choosing Migration Venture Africa as your choice. Please we will work on the mistakes that happened and we promise to improve to our level best as its our first time this happened. Thank you!
