Excellent
I've travelled with Ruan to Botswana and Vic Falls, and everything was absolutely perfect, driving the truck, locations, accomodation, giving us all kind of explanations and stories about places, nature, animals and so on! He is really in love with his job and his Country, and he was able to manage a group of 9 from different nationalities. As I was the only Italian in the group, he has been very patient repeating instructions and explanations, 'cause my english is not so good. I absolutely recommend to travel with Ruan and his company!

Informative exciting fun and love to do again
I loved the variety of our tour staying in luxury accommodation right through to camping out on the Delta. Our guide Ruan really knew the country he was showing us and went out of his way to make the most of what turned up unexpectedly such as animal sightings along the roadside and meeting local people. I never felt afraid during the tour.

Best guides ever
You can travel through Africa, or experience Africa with Shikwaru.
I was also traveling with other organizers in Africa before, but every other trip to Africa I will do only with Shikwaru!
The travel program is not processed stupidly. Wishes are individually addressed to give everyone an unforgettable experience.
Whether land and people or the animals, the knowledge of the guides is impressive. Their contact with the locals is warm and respectful, for the safaris they take a look behind every single stone, making sure not to miss an animal (mostly successful).
With meals, the guides are very resourceful and intent on freshly prepared local dishes. Requests are always considered (thanks again for the lactose-free food).
Thank you for the unforgettable experience!!!

It was a more than excellent tour with Drifters and Ruan Mey as our guide.
We did at that time the South African tour with Drifters. Ruan Mey was our guide. He was excellent, friendly, competent. The tour and the guide were both in one word : AMAZING!!!

Attentive, thoughtful and a wonderful host
We were met at the airport by our host Frederica and she ensured she was always on hand at all times during our tour with her if we had any difficulties.
Frederica went out of her way to make our trip as enjoyable as possible and was always one step ahead with her preparations so that things went smoothly.
In terms of value for money, I could not fault her. The quality of the accommodation was excellent, the schedule went smoothly from the moment we met her until she dropped us off.
My mother and I would not hesitate to recommend her.
