Spectacular- A lifetime of great memories
5/5

We traveled as a family of 4, wife, our two teenage children and myself. This was a most amazing trip. We had two excellent tour guides who guided us to all the wonderful sights of Tanzania and Kenya. We got to see the Big Five and many up close and personal.

Despite the roads being quite bumpy, our vehicles were comfortable. The flights between Serengeti and Maasai mara were fun and efficient. We had great accommodations also. We thoroughly enjoyed the 15-day at a fair price. Would highly recommend Swift Travel to anyone looking for a great experience.

Awesome & Wonderful Holidays - expectation exceeded!
5/5

"Flight of the Eagle Safaris & Tours", they cater for any group or family and they tailor-make your holiday to suit you so that you get the best out of your holiday.

Elize & Johan have created a great company that provides an amazing experience. Their services exceeded our expectations and beyond (scenic tours, game drives, catering and accommodation), it was really fun and we felt like we were at home and they also became our friends. We could never get enough of Johan's humor and knowledge, and Elize always making sure everything runs smoothly to the highest standards including self-catering she made sure all our meals are 5 stars standard. Elize, you are Excellent Chef!

It was also an educational and inspirational experience that we will never forget, they both went out of their way to make sure we saw as much as possible. We not only saw the Big 5 and Small 5, they pointed out and shared with us different animals, birds, plants and even the insects.

This was our 2nd holiday in South Africa since Year 2014, we have even talked about a future visit and seeing more of the country and bringing others with us. We will be recommending them to any of our friends who will be traveling to SA!

Elize & "Captain" Johan, Thank You so much for the unforgettable memories we had an awesome holiday and would for sure contact you on our next visit to SA. Cheers!

Fun experience with trusted drivers
5/5

Wildebeest is great, with minor hiccup but nothing that dent the fun and adventure we had. The itinerary arranged was good and flexible enough to accommodate a couple of members delayed flight. Accommodation provided was excellent. We highly recommend Wildebeest.

Amazing Experience with the BEST Staff!!
5/5

My cousin and I were recently on the 4 day safari we had such a wonderful experience. Everything was so well organized by Viva Safari, was very clean and professional and the best part was the staff!! They truly made the experience a lasting one. Everyone was so friendly and accommodating and we really felt taken care of.
From my very first inquiry, Patti and Luke were always prompt to reply with great straight forward and detailed information also going above and beyond by offering us help with accommodation in Jo'berg before and after the tour.
Every staff we came in contact with, were so great. We were so well taken care of on premise by Pretty, Bulgoni, Rex, Victor, Maynard and Azale as well as our drivers back and forth to Jo'berg. The accommodation exceeded our expectations by far. We booked a "budget" safari, but there was nothing budget about the tour. We had such a great time, saw more than we anticipated and enjoyed every minute of the Safari!
I couldn't have asked for a better safari and I will be recommending it again to my friends and family! I will def book with Viva Safaris in the future!!

Thank you so much Viva Safaris!

Great 3 day safari in Mikumi
4/5

I went on the 3 day Mikumi safari with a friend and it ended up just being the two of us on the tour - great price for a private safari!

We got picked up from a Dar Es Salaam Airport hotel and drove to Mikumi with our guide John. We had car problems along the way which was unfortunate, but we still arrived in plenty of time to get an evening tour in.
We saw a lot on the trip - giraffes, elephants, hippos, crocs, wildebeests, baboons, zebras etc. We even managed to see a pride of lions (John had heard there were some off the main road so we headed straight there before breakfast).

The accommodation was basic but fine, and the employees at Mikumi cottages were all lovely. The food was good too, although we had the same every day - pancakes, sausage, egg and watermelon for breakfast, and rice and meat for dinner.

We managed to get in 2 morning drives and 2 evening drives which was plenty as you're generally out in the car for around 4 hours. On the second day we also had lunch/a rest at a lovely place in the park which overlooked the park so you could see animals in the distance as you ate!

I was unsure what to expect of the tour given the lack of reviews, but it was one of the best experiences I've had and i would really recommend it to anyone!

Amazing Operators!
5/5

After talking with some other operators I decided to go with "In Started in Africa" and I didn't regret it for a second.
The company quickly responds to emails and almost all day long, tries to suit the best trip for your needs while gives you a lot of flexibility to change whatever you want.
All the crew in the trip, especially the guides (of course) know english very well and are really kind and supportive.
