Well organized. Everything worked like a clock work.
Kathi from African Welcome Safaris built a 16 day trip for us on the Garden Route (Cape town to Port Elizabeth).
Everything worked perfect. Kathi was very responsive in the process.
My only comment is the company's policy to charge for the whole trip 30 days before departure which made me a bit nervous. I think it is only fair to have more convenient payment terms.

Excellent Tour Organiser
I was very apprehensive when I first made a booking through African Welcome Safari. Except from reading the reviews in the internet I had no way of knowing whether the company was real or not. What a pleasant surprise!! It is not only real it is the best tour company I've ever dealt with. The tour was prepared and organised meticulously and I could not find any fault. From the time we had landed and then left Johannesburg everything went smoothly. The accommodations chosen were the top of the range and the tour guides were professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend African Welcome Safari to anyone who wants to enjoy the best possible safari experience in their lifetime.

Amazing Service! Exceeded our expectations on every level!
Kathi was our agent and she was absolutely amazing on every level. She went above and beyond in accommodating all of our requests….including last minute changes and bookings. I would highly recommend her for booking and arranging your South African vacation. She was absolutely perfect in selecting our hotels and safari. We were beyond impressed with her service and advice.
Kwandwe was an awesome safari experience. We enjoyed all the game drives and we were able to see all the Big 5. The accommodation and service was great!
Victoria Falls was a must see and a great experience. The time spent in Franschhoek was wonderful. It was a charming an quaint town with a great experience. The Rosenhof Country House was amazing! We were thrilled with the service and accommodation. To our surprise, our vehicle was washed while we were at breakfast! A nice touch to the overall experience. Cape Grace was exceptional as well! Definitely an amazing holiday!
An Unforgettable Experience
Kathi, at African Welcome Safaris, was a pleasure to work with in planning our safari. She is quick to respond to any questions you might have followed up an any concerns we had.
Transfers were seamless & the safari itself exceeded our expectations. We chose to visit the Shamwari Game Reserve & stay at the Bayethe Tented Lodge. Words cannot describe our experience. The accommodations, the food & the staff were all 5 star. The game drives were incredible, leaving us with such a desire to return to this magical place. I would highly recommend!

It was a great trip
Everything went perfectly fine. The only thing, if I had to find something was the shark diving experience in Durban which took place on a stormy day and that I found dangerous and the guides in Durban city who were the nicest people in the world but utterly incompetent. The other tour guides we had in Lesotho and Pretoria and Jburg were amazing and we really recommend them warmly.

Excellent in every phase
I joined 3nights 4days safari. During the safari, we saw many animals and learned a lot about them through a ranger. All crew in the tydon safari bush camp were very kind and nice. And the camp was very clean and good. Also all the meal was excellent. Thank you for having me a beautiful experience. Especially thank you for Karah, Joe, Laggie.

Trip of a lifetime!
From start to finish, AfricanSafaris was incredible. Kathi Simon was so easy to work with and created an itinerary based upon our wishes. She understood our best hopes and every detail was mapped out perfectly! It took all the stress away for us and allowed for us to just enjoy our experiences. All of the accommodations and expeditions, safaris, etc went above and beyond our expectations. Every question and concern we had was answered on a timely fashion and we felt so comfortable with our itinerary and plans. All of the companies African Safari's contracts with had such friendly and helpful employees. Nothing but positive things to say!

It was a great reward!
Everything was perfect! African Welcome Safari organised for us a marvelous 10-day safari which allowed us to discover Victoria Falls and the stark, otherworldy beauty of Botswana. It was really one of the best and most luxurious ways to experience the highlights of Botswana and its world-class game viewing!

Reliable and trustworthy - relax in their hands...
A fifth trip organised by African Welcome was possibly the best of all. They've all been the best of all! The patience while we have planned the trips and the working to our requests for style and comfort level has always been exemplary. Excellent communications and practical, pragmatic advice. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a trip to Southern Africa.
