Amazing Experience for our Family
Travel Africa Safari Agency is an awesome company. They were amazing to work with from the beginning to the end. Mohamed helped answer our many question through the booking and selection process, Jackline took care of us once we were in the country and Godfrey and Joel were fun, amazing drivers and guides in town. I can’t say enough good things about our Safari guide Aaron. He was amazing! He is experienced, patient and a great person. He made sure we saw the animals we wanted to see, educated us and answered all of our questions. We talked to other families and they didn’t see near the animals we saw. I attribute that to Aaron and his experience and knwoldgenas a guide. Just a great guy and I highly recommend him and the Travel Africa Safari Agency. A++++

Competent, knowledgeable, fun, friendly, safety-oriented guide, great value for money. Top marks!
The two brothers at the helm of Okavango Exploration Safaris are extraordinary hosts. Their purpose is clearly to give clients the very best that the Botswana bush has to offer. This means they expertly track down a wide array of wildlife, they share their vast knowledge of the flora and fauna of the land, their camps are simple and well-run, the food is delicious and they accommodate food restrictions very well, and you always feel safe in their hands.
While planning our family safari, we were in constant communication with our guide, Sox. He was most helpful and very flexible in working out schedules and activities, and always got back to us immediately. Sox was at the airport to meet us with open arms in his well-equipped and very comfortable safari vehicle. He is an excellent driver and spotter, and has a warm and friendly personality.
From the coffees at sun-up to the gin and tonics at sun-down, we enjoyed every minute. We saw grand herds of elephant, giraffe, zebras, antelopes, as well as lions, leopards, cheetah, wild dogs, buffalo, hippos, to name a few. We shared stories around the fire under an incredible blanket of stars, we heard the roar of lions at night while we were tucked safely into our tents. And we experienced a beautiful morning on the river in mokoros, where we came face to face with a herd of elephants taking a drink and splashing around! It was all magical and never to be forgotten.
We have enjoyed seven safaris in the Botswana/Namibia area, two of which were with Okavango Exploration Safaris. We highly recommend this outfit and definitely feel we received good value for our money.

This team know what they are doing.
Elias and his team are amazing. The climb of the Kilimanjaro was my first big adventure, and everything was above my expectations from the beginning to the end. The equipment that I rented was first quality, the food was great. The guides and porters are experienced and will treat you like royalty. Tanzania Elsewhere will do anything for your comfort and making sure you reach the summit safely. This was one of the best experiences of my life.

Lucas is an excellent tour guide, enabling a visit of a lifetime to Tanzania!
This trip was truly a trip of a life time! Our trip included, Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater park. We not only got to see so many beautiful animals in their natural habitat, but also, up close and personal. Literally in many cases a few feet from our vehicle!! I even have video of lion cubs purring next to their mother, taken on my phone camera, that's how close we were to the animals in some cases. From Lions, Cheetahs, Elephants, Giraffes to Zebras, Wildebeests, Gazelles, Hyenas, Hippos, etc - we even saw a Leopard from a distance. We were able to see the animal migration, we saw 2 lions eating a zebra, we even saw a lioness stalking her prey! The reason we were able to see all of these (and much more) was because Lucas is an amazing safari guide!!
I strongly recommend Lucas and his company Lucas African Adventures.....Lucas is knowledgeable about the different animals in the parks, he is a safe driver and professional at all times....we really enjoyed our trip, even leaving Lucas a huge tip at the end b/c of how satisfied and happy all 7 of us were at the end of the 6 day trip....go Luca, Luca!!

the best share tour experience
I went on 4-day safari trip with Serengeti African Tours, and all I can say is that it was awesome!
Our guide was super cool and showed us all the Big 5. He told us all kinds of interesting stuff about the animals and the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. I would recommend to do 2 days Serengeti and then the rest of the parks.
Now, I was a bit worried about the food at first, but I was surprised how delicious it was! The chef had many options and all of them with great taste. He even baked a cake for one of the night dinners and it was very well made.
The places we stayed at were nice and comfy, just what we needed after a day of exploring. Overall, it was a really fun trip, and I totally recommend Lucas, Abu (guide) and Richard (chef), for anyone looking for a budget shared safari!

Perfect Safari for an unbeatable price!
This was a perfect safari!
Unbeatable for that price. I stayed many weeks near the Serengeti before but couldn’t found a better offer than this one.
We saw 27 lions and 5 rhinos and so much more! The organisation was totally uncomplicated and we got the night before the safari and the transport to the airport after 2 days after the safari as well included.
So all in all we totally recommend the tour and most notably our tourguide David!
Asante sana!

outstanding connections with local people
Traveling with Nature Responsible Safari Uganda brings an unforgettable sustainable experience with nature and animals, but also and above all with the people of Uganda. The NRS manager and photographer Isolde Novak knows the best places and time to take unique observations and photos. Since there are only 3-4 people in the cars, we had enough space for our equipment and there was the right place for everyone to take the best pictures. Your carefully selected drivers and guides will help you get to know the country from its most beautiful side and gain an unusual insight into the everyday life of the population. I traveled alone and went home happy with new friends. It was my 2nd trip with Nature Responsible Safari Uganda. Everything was personally and lovingly selected and organized. You can't bring a country closer or better to the holidaymaker.

Outstanding
Selllo was a great guide- and driver. I very much enjoyed his commentary- the itinerary- and the lunch! It was everything I hoped it would be. Great service in terms of the pickup/ drop off. A wonderful day….
