Wonderful Safari at a reasonable price
Overall, we were quite pleased with our safari experience and with Swift Travel and Tour Management. Peter was very responsive to all of our questions prior to our trip, and we enjoyed our guide and driver, Bedan. The Safari camps where we stayed were lovely, and the flow of our trip worked well. There were some slight adaptations to our itinerary, and nothing too huge. I would use Swift Travel again, and recommend others to utilize them for a great safari at a reasonable price.

perfect guide for amazing safari.
We booked for Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngongorongo. Because of the season the operator changed Lake Manyara for Tangarire. Accommodation was perfect, good tents, good camps. Guide Gidion was an nice guy and knew everything about the animals and birds.

my first safari experience
luxury accommodation very clean and charm. The rooms are authentic and comfortable with all you could expect. The food was excellent . From the moment you are woken early for you morning coffee and game drive, to the generous breakfast, high tea and evening game drive to the rewarding evening dinner you are made to feel welcome and special. The knowledge of our guide and tracker were second to none and we enjoyed learning so much about the African animals. It was a truly rewarding and memorable experience will defiantly back with my family again

Review about Etosha National Park by Paula Moon
We did not see any of the big five in Etosha - however we absolutely loved the vibe. A very restful peaceful place

Exceeding our Expectations in Every Way!!!
We cannot say enough about the positive experience we had visiting South Africa, thanks to the support of Tailor Made Safaris. This company is small and nimble. They provided excellent service. They are organized and sensitive, able to really help you identify the kind of experience you want and put it together at a very reasonable cost. Every aspect of our 2 week vacation was well planned, yet flexible on a day to day basis. We were able to really see the natural beauty of the Elephant Coast without feeling like we were among a herd of tourist. Our guide was a big reason why we got so much out of our tour. We think of him as the "coolest Mary Poppins" you could imagine. He was very friendly, intelligent and supported our adventure in every way. The food was terrific! We got to experience the local cuisine, and our one vegetarian traveler was accommodated equally well. We really loved the hardbound book we received a few weeks before our trip. It helped us visualize the details before and during the trip and is now a very sweet souvenir. We cannot recommend this company enough and have already talked some friends/family into travelling with their services.

Enjoyable trip. Learned a lot about Tanzania natural resources and people.
Tony was an excellent driver easy to communicate with. The trip planning was good and interesting. Tony was well informed about his country and its wild life. He was punctual and went out of his way to make the experience great. I can recommend Tony for your safari in Tanzania and Kenya.

An excellent trip with friendly people and good service.
The Safari was excellent and our driver was both knowledgable and an excellent driver. We saw a lot, enjoyed the company and had a very fun trip. We were picked up close to the advertised time and dropped off even before the scheduled time. We had plenty of food and loved eating lunch with the giraffe. Our camp was neat and clean with meals on time and quite tastey. We would use jockytours again.

Very well organized safari with great guides.
We had a very nice safari at the Kruger Park with Outlook Safaris. Everything was very well organized, from our cottage to the game drives and the food. The guides were experienced, knew what they were talking about and did a great job.

The staff was well qualified and many animals were observed and photographed.
Overall this was a very good experience, but it was initially disappointing when the staff failed to pick us up at the airport and we had to call the emergency number and wait about an hour. The facilities were good, but not quite as nice as we expected for the price we paid. There were not enough power outlets in the bedrooms. Our room had one free, which I used for my CPAP machine, but the two rooms of our guests only had one for the air conditioner and both men had CPAP machines that needed power. The food was good, but not exceptional. The staff did a great job in finding animals to observe and photograph. We saw the big 5 twice on our outings. The half day optional excursion to sight see was worthwhile, but not quite as spectacular as expected, probably because we have previously seen the Grand Canyon in the USA and Iguassu Falls in Brazil. It was the animals that made this a trip to remember and KrugerPark did a great job in getting us in positions to view and photograph them.
