Excellent organisation and effective communication
5/5

We had a great experience with It started in Africa.
Our guide Joel was very knowledgeable on the best spots to see animals, in planning our schedule and in setting everything up everything to provide us with the best experience.
The service our cook David provided was very good, all food was excellent and prepared in a timely and professional manner.
We will definitely recommend these guys to colleagues and family who already asked for contact reference.

Amazing Operators!
5/5

After talking with some other operators I decided to go with "In Started in Africa" and I didn't regret it for a second.
The company quickly responds to emails and almost all day long, tries to suit the best trip for your needs while gives you a lot of flexibility to change whatever you want.
All the crew in the trip, especially the guides (of course) know english very well and are really kind and supportive.

WOW-Safari
5/5

First of all I want to thank manager Luis, who helped me to organize a very specific trip with my special requests and wishes in a very short term: we had 2 weeks only before the trip.
I changed an itinerary about 10 times as I tried to make it work in a best way and Luis helped me with so much attention to my needs: the trip was organized perfectly and we didn't need to think about anything during our travel.
Another great thing about this agency - they have special quotation in some hotels, so you have a chance to get hotel price much lower than via official hotel website or booking/hotels.com etc.

Safari:
We had a good guide Estomih, who did his best to show us as much animals as possible and also followed our wishes (we wanted to see lions most of all). He listened to game radio with attention and could find out animals' location very quickly. He is also a great driver! I can say that because we saw so many cars got stuck and we never had this problem. He was driving very carefully but not too slow.

Thank you very much! I hope to come back very soon!

Best regards, Svetlana

Kilimanjaro trek fantastic
5/5

It's incredible to realize it has been a week since we were in the roof of Africa,. We did the 8 days lemosho trek and can say that the logistics were spot on. Great advises before coming, excellent hotel recommendation before trek (African tulip). Great punctuality on transfers and an amazing team who went the extra mile to keep us motivated and safe until we reached our big dream.

We recommend this company to everyone.

Excelente!
5/5

Great trip through West Africa: Kenya, Tanzania and a small tour of the gorillas in Rwanda. All organized by It Started in Africa with an unprecedented service excellence. All the logistics were handled according to our plans and save one or another small detail, nothing failed. We could not be happier. The highlight was the Tanzania where we visit the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater and Zanzibar.

P.S. I'm using google translator to translate my text Portuguese to English
