Excellent professional but warm staff. Trustful, nice people with a deep knowledge.
I can highly recommend this staff. Their knowledge about nature and the sites are perfect. Also sensitive about ethical tourism. Wonderful, helpful tourguides!

An overtly informative and yet amazing outdoor experience, gives me nostalgia at its best.
After doing extensive research to pick the right safari tour to go with, we chose Safari Bookings... and we were overjoyed that we did, just to be clear before you read on, I was not hassled in the slightest to leave a good review. I chose to do this because our day was fantastic. There is a reason they are number one.
We did the full day tour with Mr Ben as our driver/guide. We wanted to maximise our potential wildlife experiences. We were the first ones in the park and saw a lion straight away standing majestically on the top of a rock. Most of the morning was focused on finding lions, hippos and rhinoceros. We eventually saw two male lions and 5 females (one of whom a mother with her four cubs at about 5 months old) a beautiful time to view a pride in the making, which was more than i could've hoped for, I was hoping just to get a glimpse of one lion and maybe see a antelopes as i understood it is quite rare and having worked in eco tourism myself, i understand there are never any guarantees with wildlife. We saw everything else too... elephants, crocodiles, hippos, water buffalo, rhinoceros, monkeys, endless beautiful exotic birds. We witnessed a very special moment between a mother elephant and her calf, Ben predicted which waterhole the elephants were heading to and parked us there in advance despite another companies driver not appearing to agree with his decision. After waiting patiently for about 15 minutes, the mother and calf arrived and bathed for 20 minutes right in front of us... it was so beautiful to witness this loving moment between these to wild free and happy animals.
Lunch was delicious, we brought some extra snacks but what they supply would've probably been enough for most people, we just love snacking and it is a big day! We brought extra water as well and a water spritzer bottle (which I highly recommend) to help us keep cool during waiting periods which there were many ... but it is wildlife you need to be patient in order to get the pay off!!

Never had a greater experience EVER! Don't take a chance, book with Twist!
From start to finish, there was never a missed step. Communication was prompt, courteous, and always helpful. I worked with an incredible lady, Dorothy, who was always quick to replay. I was coming from America on a missions trip, and 12 hour time difference seemed like would be difficult to overcome. NEVER! I'm not sure if she walks with a laptop on her hip or next to the side of her bed, but she always got back to me quickly. Now the Safari itself.....BREATHTAKING! I have done many an excursion across the world, but never a Safari trip, so I was very excited. And Twist Africa lived up to the expectations. No I take that back...they SURPASSED my expectations. Wildlife, birds, scenery like I have never experienced were phenomenal. Accommodations were outstanding, service at the places we stayed was so hospitable, and the food....wow I didn't want to come back to America and go to McDonalds ever again! Just incredible culture, food, people! The people were the best part I think. So gracious, giving, and reaching out to talk and discuss and share of themselves. Twist has set up a great network of people to handle their customers. I will return, hopefully on a yearly basis. And I will NEVER use anyone other than Twist Safari.
Regards and a pleasure to write this review.

Magical wildlife experience
I had an amazing time with Twist Africa as they helped plan out our magical honey moon to queen Elizabeth National park. The tour was great, our guide has good communication skills, very knowledgeable about wildlife and ensured we reached our destination points on time. My most exciting moment was the boat cruise across kazinga channel and witnessing the big five at the park. My fiancée loved the crater lake visits all made possible by Twist Africa. I’m definitely coming back another time for the gorillas.
Thank you Dorothy

A Revelation once uncovered is hard to stay away from
Communication was spot on, the service was exactly what you expect from safari tour, for the safari itself, i am even speechless, where can i start from,where can i stop because it was just awesome from the word go. If anybody is out there wandering who to trust and count on for a safari experience, Twist Africa is right at the tip,call it the top if you choose to, look no where else, my oh my, what an experience
