Bongan Safaris was everything we could have asked for and more!
5/5

My brother and I had such a great experience with Bongan Safaris. The accommodations were very comfortable and private, and the home cooked food was top notch. We went on the four day safari, which included a sunset tour the first evening, two full day tours, and then a morning tour the final day. We saw a ton of animals every time we went out, including several lions, buffalos, and elephants so close to the car it felt like we could almost reach out and touch them. We had two different drivers, and both were very friendly and knowledgeable, doing everything they could to find us the best wild life viewing and to keep us comfortable and happy.

Communication prior to arrival and our travel experience was great. They offered pickup and dropoff directly at the airport, and everything on their end went perfectly smooth, even when our incoming flight was delayed by an hour.

I would highly recommend Bongan Safaris to anyone looking for a great Kruger experience.

Tanzania safari and zanzibar beach - Honeymoon
5/5

We booked our honeymoon through pure safari with John Graze and can honestly say it was the best trip ever.
I explained what I was looking to John and he made some suggestions before we finalised everything. The whole trip was above and beyond our expectations. Our extremely helpfull and knowledgeable guide Rich from kibo guides was there to greet us at Killamanjaro and from there he brought us on our 6 day safari. Rich was an excellent guide we got to see so much more wildlife than expected. Our accommodation throughout the safari was amazing and staff very friendly and helpfull.
After our safari we stayed at Z hotel in zanzibar for our beach break. Again John advised on the ocean front cottage room as I wanted something a bit luxurious and wow what a room.
We enjoyed every minute and will most definetly be planning our next safari soon.

Very well looked after by Bruce from my initial contact. The holiday trip was just amazing and all of the local aids were extremely courteous and friendly. I would have no hesitation in recommending your services. Our only issue was flight connections and not having one through ticket for our air travel which together with poor connection planning aided is to miss one connecting flight on our return trip which had to be rebooked and paid for. We would appreciate this cost being refunded.

Right from our first enquiry they couldn't do enough to make sure we had the holiday we wanted , within our price range. Even when we had to add another traveller , and then remove her again it was all done without fuss.

Excellent company!
5/5

Everything was perfect - the Selous Impala camp really looked after us and he service was second to none. All the employees were amazing. Echo Beach was the most perfect destination for our honeymoon and the most beautiful setting I have ever seen. Again all the people that worked there, especially the owners made us feel very welcome and really looked after us. The perfect honeymoon destination.

Pure Zanzibar were so helpful in giving us advice on the perfect honeymoon before we actually booked. They made sure we were going to an intimate destination in Zanzibar and also a luxury safari experience that was right for us. They also helped with all our questions before we went and nothing was too much trouble.

5/5

Very knowledgable and helpful with deciding which options would best for us when combining the Kilimanjaro climb with a relaxing week on Zanzibar. Excellent service at each step of the way. We couldn't think of a single element that could have been better. The Kilimanjaro climb and support was superb and then unguja lodge was fabulous; just perfect for what we wanted.

Always excellent. John is a great asset to the company he goes far beyond what other travel agents give. He advises and knows exactly the type of holiday my husband and I enjoy. Would always use John and have already recommended him.

5/5

I was quite particular in my choice of holiday and had high expectations. The ease with which Pure Safari found my dream holiday made me a little concerned that it would live up to my expectations. However I should never have worried the holiday exceeded all my requests. Like all good professionals Bruce at Pure Safari just made it look easy! Thank you so much for creating such a wonderful experience full of wonderful memories. :-)

I had a demanding wish list. What I actually got exceeded everything I asked for and went without a hitch. The accommodation was excellent everywhere we went. The food 1st class. The safaris were far better than I dared expect. The people on the ground did everything they could to make us feel welcome and cared for. A very big thank you to you all we will be returning next year with our family and I can wait to introduce them to an experience of a life time. :-). I can highly recommend you to anyone without reservation.
