Amazing Agent
Mazingira safari is my Tanzania based agent for all my Tourist going to Tanzania. Jacob and Moses are the best guide ever. I had opportunity to accompany for our 21 days Tour in Kenya and Tanzania. All the clients were that happy even during the departure time some shred tears of happiness. The company vehicles are luxury and in good conditions. All the guide are very jovial and well familiar with parks.

Trip of a Lifetime
We had the most amazing trip, it was even better than I had hoped. South Africa is such a complex, diverse and beautiful country from the scenery to the people.
Everything went extremely well thanks to the meticulous planning of African Welcome Safaris.
Every transfer went without a hitch, our one day tour in Johannesburg was with one of the best guides we have ever had, and all the accommodation was excellent.
Victoria Falls was breathtaking and it was such a treat to stay at the Victoria Falls Hotel, it felt like stepping back in time to a more relaxed and refined era.
We really loved Blackheath Lodge in Sea Point, it had a special feel about it. The highlight was Tanda Tula,
what a great adventure. The staff were so welcoming, the accommodation was very unique and we saw the most stunning sights we have ever seen. The sunrises and sunsets were beautiful.
African Welcome Safaris thought about every detail and our trip flowed seamlessly. There was also plenty of documentation provided and contact numbers for each phase of the trip so we had a back up plan if something went wrong. The itinerary that Kathi put together for us was just right, we felt we spent the right number of days in each location to enable us to see the sights we wanted to see.

Wonderfully executed itinerary, recommendations, and responsiveness from Kerry!
Our experience with Pembury tours was wonderful. We took an 11 night trip to Capetown, Sabi Sands, Hazyview, and Victoria Falls (Zambia). The planning and timeliness of all of our planned activities and flights was excellent. During our preparation for the trip, Kerry answered my questions extremely fast and was very helpful in helping us plan our vacation. I could not have asked for a better tour consultant. Our favorite part of the trip was at the Sabi Sands Reserve at the &Beyond Exter River Lodge; the food was amazing, the staff extremely friendly, and wildlife did not disappoint. We were not prepared for the cold weather in the morning (about 50 degrees Fahrenheit) but the reserve had hot water bottles to help us stay warm! We definitely want to go back in the future and will use Pembury tours to help us plan our journey.
I went to queen elizabeth national park,ishasha sector and watched tree climbing lions,we enjoyed th
The accomodation was abush lodge and it was movolous.

Gosheni + Moses = Awesome
Absolutely amazing experience with Gosheni and our guide, Moses. He was an unbelievable combination of professional, hard-working and talented. Each morning, he was up at the crack of dawn ready for us whenever we were. He took care of all the little details such as making sure to clean the truck each evening, getting our lunch ready and keeping an eye on the weather. I was blown away at his ability to drive us around for 12 hours a day with consistently high energy and off the charts awareness. Whenever I spotted something on the horizon with my binoculars I found that Moses had already seen the animal and identified it with his eagle-eye vision...all the while keeping most of his attention on the road. It was incredible.
I also have to give a shout out to Peter, who did a great job running the business and communicating with us. We were able to set up a customized tour with him via email that was everything we hoped for. He went above and beyond when, as we were driving to the airport and realized that we had left our camera at our hotel, he found a way to get our camera speedily delivered to us at the airport in time for us to still make our flight.
My Mar 2016 trip
The highlight was Laikipia Wilderness Camp which was absolutely amazing but the return trip down the Rift valley was very enjoyable too. As always the arrangements made by safarihub were smooth and efficient throughout.
Altogether yet another brilliant safari experience - the best yet!

Great safari experience!
I went on a safari to Amboseli with Leonard. Leonard was a great guide, knowledgeable, nice and helpful- I definitely recommend going on a safari with him! Peter was good at swiftly answering mails and organizing trips in advance.

Shadows of Africa-An Excellent Choiice
We booked 15 days in Kenya and Tanzania with Jake from Shadows of Africa. He was so easy to work with and gave us many choices of accommodations and parks to visit and then we made the decisions as to where and what we wanted. Jake was always available to answer question about visas, immunizations, accommodations and all the other questions we had. We reviewed the guides/drivers and selected Ken in Kenya and Timothy in Tanzania and could not have been happier with their expertise. Both had great personalities and could spot the animals from far away. They always got us in the right spot for the best picture and we seemed to be the first vehicle at many of the "hot" sights. We had a good vehicle-very clean-even with all the dust and the guides found bathrooms, if needed, even in the middle of the Serengeti. We saw the Big 5 in both countries and many other animals and beautiful birds. We visited the Hadzabe, Dakoota and Maasai tribes for an inside look at how the tribes live and work. We stayed in tent camps, lodges and a Maasai lodge made with sticks, cow dung and straw roof and loved every night. The tent camps allow the animal noises to be heard and nothing like lying in bed and hearing hyenas or lions in the distance. I would choose Shadows of Africa for a great adventure in Africa again.

My worst experience, ever
I have travelled all over the world, and this was not my first safari, indeed. But I never found an operator that avoids its responsabilities in such a way like this one. There were services not provided to us, and when we asked the operator for a solution, he just said "no problem", and nothing else. They will tell you "no problem" to everything you ask, but actually they will do nothing, they will not accept any responsability, they will not compensate you for any service not provided. Maybe others have had a better experience than us, but I would never recommend this operator.

Chobe river cruise/game drive.
My wife and I did the one day Chobe river cruise/ game drive. It was most enjoyable! Our driver, Blessings, picked us up from our hotel promptly from our hotel in Victoria Falls, and we saw African wildlife on our drive to Botswana. Culture, our boat captain, did an outstanding job in pointing out wildlife and gave us a lot of information about the game. The lunch buffet was delicious and was served at the Chobe Lodge. Captain, our driver on the game drive, gave us the opportunity to observe and learn about the elephants and hippos in their natural habitat. We would recommend this tours to others.
