Excellent customer service, amazing experience
Patricia and her team did everything possible to give my friend and I a wonderful and unique safari experience. She thought of everything - even small details - and ensured that this once-in-a-lifetime experience will never be forgotten. If you want an affordable (relatively, because safaris are not cheap) experience with a company that will look after you, do not hesitate to go with Travel for Change Africa. I can't thank them enough for the wonderful communication, attention to detail, and the care they have shown throughout my entire journey. Highly recommended, indeed.

They provided a full service safari that was incredibly well organized at an affordable price.
My wife and I just returned from an amazing week long trip to Kenya, that was entirely arranged by Patricia from "Travel For Change". She took care of all the details from air reservations, to arranging our lodging and meals as well as providing us the worlds best guide and driver, Max. Every detail was perfectly attended to, and they receive our very highest recommendation. You are going to be spending A LOT of time with the guide/driver, so this is a very important component of the trip. We couldn't have been happier all around.

Really nice experience, recommend it!
Travel For Change Africa was recommended to us by a friend who travelled with them in 2016. We did a ten day safari in Kenya and Tanzania. I must say we were impressed by the level of professionalism exhibited by the company. Email response was really fast, and Patrick our Kenyan driver was very knowledgeable and fun. We learnt so much about the animals and the people of Kenya. The journey to Isebania border was a full day game drive. As a cautionary tale, clients should be careful when crossing from Kenya to Tanzania through the Isebania border because in our case the drive was very long and hectic and the roads were no good. Anyone who doesn't fancy long drives can request for a flight even though it's a little bit expensive. We did not have any extra money for a flight so we opted to go for the drive. The Travel for Change sales team advised us to either fly or spend a night in Lake Victora to reduce the driving distance but we were very eager to get to Tanzania so we did not agree to either of the two options. Our Tanzanian driver James was not only knowledgeable but also fun as well. In short, we tremendously enjoyed our stay in both countries and we couldn't have asked for more. Asanthe Travel for Change team for the wonderful experience.

Best Tanzania Safari Ever!!!!
Being a student in Canada and doing a safari in Tanzania with my college buddies was a once in a life time experience for us. We did 8 days safari at Serengeti, Lake Manyara, Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater. Serengeti was by far the coolest park I have been to! Our driver Jimmy was excellent and the vehicle that was provided was awesome!! The side windows had flaps and it was like we were using an open sided land cruiser. Thank you so much Travel for Change team for taking good care of us and we will definitely travel with you again and recommend you to our friends and family.

Amboseli National Park Tour
These guys were fantastic. They went above and beyond to ensure we saw the big 5. They were very knowledgable about the area, park, wildlife and fauna.
They provided all accommodation & food and it was all excellent.

Great experience!
We went on an 8 day safari with Travel for Change and couldn't have had a better experience. During the initial process of setting the itinerary they were very informative and took our requests and also provided suggestions. Email responses were prompt and we felt like they had our best interests in mind. Once in Kenya our driver Patrick picked us up at the airport and always went the extra mile to make sure our experience was a memorable one. His knowledge of the animals and terrain were remarkable and we were continuously learning new things each day. He also knew exactly where to go and when to see lions and other animals at the right time which only added to the experience. The accommodations they booked for us exceeded expectations an we would highly recommend Travel for Change to anyone!

Excellent planning and execution by Patricia
We have considered four different travel operators for the private safari tour for our group of 4 adults for 16 days in March of 2017. Patricia from Travel for Change Africa proved to be the most professional of them all, with an admirable attention to detail, flexibility, and great communicational and organizational skills. She offered us a truly luxurious safari experience within a still competitive budget, and she managed to execute it all in style. Any hiccups, while only expected in Africa especially during such a long trip, she resolved flawlessly, even managing to upgrade our accommodations a notch higher (as in the Four Seasons). Traveling in Africa one needs to be prepared for the unexpected, but it was comforting to know there were professionals one could rely watching over us to help smooth the ride. We had traveled hundreds of miles throughout Kenya and Tanzania, oftentimes hazardous to say the least, yet we would all come back to do it all over again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended. Cheers to Patrick (our guide in Kenya)

An amazing experience; real value for money.
I am definitely grateful that I chose to go with Travel for Change Africa on my Amboseli Safari last January. My visitors and I have all the good things to say about the experience from the first inquiry, through to the bookings and the safari itself. The staff were well on time and knew exactly what would make us happy. They have considerate drivers and vehicles well and truly suited for Kenyan roads. They made us feel safe at all times on the roads and in the parks; a great peace of mind. I look forward to choosing Travel for Change Africa on my next Safari trip to Kenya.

Excellent Tour company
I and Charlie visited Tanzania between 4th Feb. and 10th Feb 2017. From the planning stage to the real journey, everything went well. visited Ngorongoro, crater , Ndutu and Serengeti. The experience was amazing, never seen so many lions in my entire life. It was a real pleasure to plan the trip with Patricia and the entire crew. The camps and hotels that were recommended are of very high standard.
Overall we had a great trip. Special thanks to our guide Silvia and Elias who were with us up to the end of our trip. They were knowledgeable, friendly, helpful. We will surely travel with you again
