Trip of a lifetime!
We had a wonderful time. I have to mention that the services in South Africa (all places we went from Johannesburg to Kruger to Cape Town and beyond) are great. All staff, all people, everyone we came into contact with was so great, nice and helpful. Beyond that, South Africa is absolutely beautiful! This was a vacation of our lifetime and we are already thinking about our next visit. We will be back for sure.
We had a great stay and loved the food. The staff at Winchester Mansions and Kruger park was very helpful with all our questions and made our stay very enjoyable.
Also, the shark dive trip was very nicely organized, we really liked it. Everyone was so knowledgeable and we can tell that they love what they do. Thank you for booking us with Marine Dynamics!
We are going to be back very soon!

Once-in-a-lifetime Safari - THE most knowledgeable guides in Africa!
Bariki is by far the most experienced and knowledgeable guide in Africa!
He is 100% reliable: timely communication, services tailored to your needs, guaranteed safety and exceptional quality/price ratio. With Feline Safaris I did a 4-day safari including: Terengire National Park, Serengeti and Ngorongoro, seeing the most unbelievable things of my life! You witness world's finest spectacle of nature & wildlife: the biggest migration of animals in the world (2,5 mln animals, 800km) and circle of life (those who are born, those who hunt or are hunted). Thanks to Feline safaris we could see the elegant predators in action, but also elephants going for a stroll and feel the scent of Serengeti. We slept in tents close to Ngorongoro crater edge... We gathered around bonfire, observed shooting stars, listened to wild animals roaming in the distance... One of the most beautiful nights of my life!
People I met were fun and friendly. Food was really good! Everything timely organised.
What makes the difference compared to other guides: Bariki seems to have a sixth sense, intuitively knowing where to find hidden gems and quietly tracking wildlife around us and approaching it in the right spots, at the right time. For instance, at 6 am we were the only car seeing a leopard hunting her breakfast - a young wildebeest (gnu).
With Feline Safaris you can be sure to experience an epic spectacle - once-in-a-lifetime experience! Go for Bariki and his team!

Great overall experience!
We booked the 3 day 2 night safari at the Masai Mara. Communication beforehand was excellent and pickup from our hotel in Nairobi was great. The journey to and from the national park was excellent, our driver and guide James went above and beyond to cater to the needs of everyone in the group. The camp site had all the facilities we required and we were able to meet some great people along the way.
Would definitely recommend this safari for anyone looking to see the big five on a budget but looking for a great experience!

Our trip was booked for our family of eight visiting from England. Our guide was Sheldon and he was fantastic. His knowledge of the game park and its animals was second to none. He was patient, good humoured and nothing was too much trouble. We are looking forward to further trips with Tim Brown tours. All of our family agreed that it was the best trip they had ever been part of and the memories would be remembered forever.

Excellent weekend getaway to Murchison Falls
I booked a three day group tour to Murchison Falls and was extremely impressed with the overall quality of the trip. The driver was kind and attentive, the park stunningly beautiful, and the accommodation comfortable and relaxing. The tour was incredible value for money, and has been one of my favourite holidays in east Africa ever.

Rude and disinterested tour-guide - don't book with SafariBook Evolution
Myself and my husband have recently returned from a 3 day safari with SafariBook Evolution in Kenya through the Masai Mara to finish off our 4 months spent travelling in Africa. Having spent a lot of time looking on TripAdvisor prior to selecting our company we decided choose SafariBook Evolution due to their cheap prices and despite their occasional dubious reviews however unfortunately this was a bad decision! Our trip was extremely disappointing and we would advise spending a few more dollars and going with a more trust-worthy company.
Our guide was disinterested, extremely rude and spoke limited English. He didn’t talk to the group and spoke about us rudely to other tour company guides. He needed to be pushed to go into the park and was reluctant to do so, cutting our time inside the park short on all occasions.
With regards to the campsite; it was a tented site however was extremely basic; the tents had holes in them, the zips didn’t work, the mosquito nets were dirty and holed, there was limited hot water and no wi-fi despite this being promised.
Alongside this, and probably our most alarming concern was that our guide had a complete disregard of park rules. He frequently drove off the park tracks, towards animals often causing them to run away in fear much to our surprise. This is obviously wholly inappropriate, not only for the obvious harm it causes animals but also for the future conservation of the park and its tracks.
We have been in back and forth emails with the owner Steve however this has been a fruitless task. We would strongly advise spending a few more dollars and going with a company that is much more trust-worthy. Don’t book with Safaribook Evolution!

Very good organize and affordable Safari
I took 2 days 1 night Safari to Maasai Mara and it was good and according to my expectations. We could see lions, cheetah, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, gazelles, wildebeest and other minor animals in the reservation. Good and pleasant experience.

7 day Uganda Classic Tour
It is my pleasure to recommend this company and wonderful group of people.
I recently came back from a trip to Uganda which turned out to be one of my best vacations.
My trip was arranged by Mark of Achieve Global Safari. Mark and Ajok the guide/driver came to meet me at the airport and we were later joined by Polly at the hotel. The whole team is very friendly and accommodating to my needs. My guide was very knowledgeable and named almost all the birds he pointed out for me.
Their prices are very reasonable and I took the luxury option for a few more dollars. I think it is worth it.
It is too bad I cannot send the fee by PayPal or credit card since the area has a lot of frauds. I did not have any reference before but I took the risk and sent half of the fee in advance by bank transfer. I did not have any problem and got what I asked for.
The accommodations were great and probably the best I could have in this country.
Please make sure that you are pretty fit to go on a Gorilla tracking.
I am planning to visit Tanzania to watch migration in the future and I will be happy to use this company again.
