Safari was efficiently and professionally organised without issues.
Indigo Safaris acted as agent for Chameleon Safaris in Namibia and Bushways Safari in Botswana. Both Safaris were fantastic and represented true value for money. Communication was excellent with Indigo and the comprehensive itinerary provided by them was excellent. Both Safaris were camping, with Botswana only having bush ablutions. The food on both was really good camp food well prepared and plentiful. The guides were incredible insofar as their knowledge and spotting abilities. All equipment was clean and functional.

Matthew was patient, wise, new all the good spots to go, and created the Perfect Safari/Beach Vaca!
I worked with Matthew for over 18 months creating the Perfect Kenyan Safari + Chale Island Beach vacation for my husband and I. He was so very patient with me, answered every single question of mine (and there were a LOT of questions - as neither my husband nor I had ever been to Africa!), and gave us all the tips of traveling in Africa, where to go, where NOT to go - and worked with us in such a kind manner while also keeping our budget in mind. I would HIGHLY recommend Matthew as a tour operator to anyone that wants that Perfect experience in a different land, while also keeping us very safe as well!!!!

Attentive to details and very accomodating
My sisters and I took my 80 year old mother on safari for her 80th birthday. We worked with Shannon Maclean from Indigo who was very patient with us in the coordination and planning. She listened carefully and helped us work through our specific challenges. She was a wealth information and created an itinerary that worked seamlessly. We started in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe and then made our way to Xanetseni in Klaserie Private Reserve, South Africa. Travel is typically full of unanticipated twists and turns, but with Shannon's guidance and careful planning, the entire trip went off without a hitch!

Excellent itinerary and information.
Indigo Safaris drew up a fantastic itinerary for our travels through Namibia. It was evident from the first day that they had placed us in the best camps and resorts in every place we visited. The information and GPS maps they provided were accurate and informative and made reaching each destination easy. Full marks to Indigo Safaris for planning an amazing trip for us.

Michele listened, developed tour required which exceeded our expectation, communication excellent.
Michele listened to what type of safari we were looking for and the dates were very specific to our travel needs. Michele organised flights, transfers and gave much needed general info on the area and cultural requirements. Umkumbe Bush Camp meet our expectations and all travel connections ran smoothly.

Excellent!
Michele was wonderful to work with. She was patient with our large group while we changed dates and plans. She was able to guide us through the process and ultimately planned the BEST vacation for us. Every detail from transport, to celebrating my Mom's birthday at every turn, to accommodations, tours and more was clearly thought out! I would highly recommend Michele and Indigo Safaris! You will not be disappointed.

An Unforgettable African Adventure: Exceptional Experience with Indigo Safaris
We had an outstanding experience with Indigo Safaris! Kerry crafted our Kenyan trip to perfection, tailoring every detail to our preferences. Our adventure included game drives through Masai Mara, Nairobi National Park, Amboseli, and Tsavo West. In the middle of our journey, Kerry seamlessly arranged a visit to my aunt who lives outside of Nairobi. Kerry's advice was invaluable, particularly her suggestion to visit Lake Naivasha, which turned out to be an incredibly unique and worthwhile stop.
Every lodge we stayed at was exceptional, offering perfect accommodations, delicious food, and warm, welcoming staff. We truly appreciated Kerry's reliable guidance, sound advice, and excellent recommendations throughout the trip.
Our guide and driver, Jimmy, was phenomenal. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him—he was funny, down-to-earth, and made us feel completely safe. His driving skills are exceptional (navigating Kenyan roads is no small feat, lol), and he consistently demonstrated professionalism and punctuality. Jimmy also amazed us with his impressive animal tracking abilities and extensive knowledge of the local wildlife and bird species.
Overall, I cannot recommend Indigo Safaris highly enough. Although it was a significant investment for us, the trip truly delivered incredible value. When I consider how much many American families spend on a Disney World vacation, I’m confident that our African adventure was worth every penny as a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater & Tarangire combined Safari
Dickson our driver is a true gentleman and has been driving Safari trips for over 20 years. His knowledge about animals and the Reserves is hard gained and invaluable.
Other Safari drivers acknowledged him everywhere we went and it is obvious he is well respected.
We are a family of 3. My wife, my daughter and myself. We set off from a unique lodge in Arusha and travelled some 6 hours into the Serengeti.
Dickson made sure we saw animals and loads of them. Our Campsite was very remote but very comfortable and the staff were exceedingly helpful. The dinners were excellent. Congrats to the chef.
After 2 full days in Serengeti we moved to a lodge above the Ngorongoro Crater. It was clean and the restuarant /Canteen was big and spacious. Again staff were really helpful.
Dickson is such a safe driver. The Decent into the crater is steep and takes driving skills. We again saw a lot of wildlife within the crater.
The lodge at Tarangire is to die for. Wow the views worth the whole safari trip.
Would I book with Indigo Safaris again. 110%. Another country and another experience.

Created a memorable itinerary that exceeded our expectations
We gave Ines a budget for 6 pax and asked for an itinerary that included safari and beach in South Africa. The tour she created was amazing with 4 nights safari and 3 nights on the beach at Ballito. It exceeded our expectations and was great value for the budget we set. All transfers were included and perfectly reliable. Would highly recommend.
