Great Experience on our first Africa trip
My wife and I booked a three week tour with Craig and had a great time. The itinerary was excellent as we enjoyed Joberg, Blyde River Canyon, Kruger National Park, St. Lucia Wetlands, Swaziland, Drakenberg area, Capetown and its surrounds as well as an add-on to Vic Falls and Chobe Game Reserve to the North. Craig designed the itinerary to meet our desires (lots of wildlife and outdoor activities mixed in with a sampling of the Capetown area without spending too much time shopping or in city centers). Because of the personal nature of the tour with Craig driving us almost everywhere, we saw the country through the eyes of a native South African and without the cumbersome nature of a larger group tour.
We were allowed to choose the general quality of the lodging (midrange) and we're pleased with the accommodations at every stop. Craig was always willing to do more. We were the ones who had to say that we were ready to rest up and relax a while.
We saw almost every type of animal you can think of, including all the big cats. Tasted wine in the Stellenbosch area, climbed Table Mountain, viewed more beautiful scenery than we could imagine and met lots of truly nice South African people.
Craig's company is relatively new but he is bonded and enthusiastic about his subject matter. As he is the owner, I imagine at some point very soon he will have to use other guides to cover the areas outside of Capetown but he seems like the kind of guy who will monitor the quality carefully and see to it that you get the experience you want. I actually think it might be better to have more than one guide so you can get diverse outlooks and information.
We were amazed by our first trip to Africa and appreciate Southern African Tours' role in putting everything together.

Great safari experience
We travelled with African Comfort Zone safaris in April - the guide picked us up from our hotel in Nairobi and we drove to Masai Mara on the first day with a stop along the way for a tasty lunch. The accommodation was all we needed, delicious hot food every meal, hot and cold showers in our tent and very friendly staff. The safari was great fun and I highly recommend it! We got to see a variety of animals including most of the big 5, including a picnic lunch with the giraffes!

Review about Lake Manyara National Park by Sina Wiedemann
Thick bushes where the animals can easily hide, so you don’t see them much:(

Amazing experience!
Masaii Wanderings was amazing right from the get-go. Donna was able to deal with all my bookings and silly questions (it was my first time to Africa so I had plenty). She was incredibly helpful, professional and courteous! Even with the changes I had, she was able to accommodate me first, and then 2 friends and their slightly different schedules as well!
The camp at Naona Moru (and Diana who runs it) is also amazing and I could go on about the camp but i've left a great review on trip advisor - https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g293751-d9830857-Reviews-Naona_Moru_Camp-Serengeti_National_Park.html
I'm told that this camp is use almost exclusively by Masaii Wanderings so I can assure you that it's an amazing camp!

An unforgettable tour from Johannesburg to Capetown.
In october 2014 we made an organized trip from Johannesburg to Capetown in 4 weeks. Our guide was Kobus de Jonge from the Jewel of Africa Safaris who showed an enormous knowlegde of the country, all the different people and their history as well as the animals we saw in the different parks we visited. Kobus was serious when needed and he could make us laugh when on a lot of other occasions. He was very helpful when one of the women broke her hip. He also organized a lot of things when we had free time. I think I can speak for the group when I say that he made this trip an unforgettable one !
