Dream African experience
My wife and I had an excellent experience once again. It was our third visit to Tanzania. Although it was not the best time of year for game viewing, it was a great time to experience the Rufiji river in all its greatness. The bush was lush and green and beautiful to see.
What a great experience.

Wonderful, very scenic, diversified = tropical forest, savannah + beautiful beaches. People friendly
See above written. As a sole female traveler, no problem. I strongly suggest that one interact with the people; enjoy authentic interactions by taking a ride on the back of a motorbike on a beach or village road, go fishing with a local fisherman, interact with Masai outside of organized tourist events, go eat at local restaurants. And take a 6-day, 5-night group/shared safari , especially of Serengeti and see the “big five” and make new friends, including camping and hear a lion every now and again at night grunting. Truly a lifetime experience.

A dream come true!
This was my first time in Tanzania so I didn’t know what to expect, but I was amazed by the beauty of the Serengeti and by the amount of wildlife I got to see ! They were right there, next to the car, so close I could almost touch them! I couldn’t believe it.
The accommodations were wonderful and beautiful and the food was delicious .
Everybody was kind and helpful and I can’t wait to go back!

Review about Lake Manyara National Park by Jeannette
Beautifully green and much vegetation, forest. There are very many Baboons alongside the road and in the trees. The other animals remain to bug extent hidden due to the dense vegetation .

Review about Serengeti National Park by Jeannette
Simply the best. We saw so many lions within 2-4 meters of our vehicle as well as elephants , but the lions were the most awesome. Unlike other visitors, we unfortunately did not see any lions chasing prey. The number of herds of gnu and zebra was also astounding

Our first Safari Experience the Kruger Safari Co organised was spectacular and flawless highly reco
We are travelling from Australia to SA Safari for the first time.
Wayne assisted to organise the most amazing safari experience. It was very smooth. Wayne was very responsive within an hour you’ll get a response for any questions you have. We dealt with him via email and then whatsapp while we were there. This is a very trustworthy operator. You will be taken care of, customer service is flawless!!
I will definitely be arranging my next safari through him! When we decide to go next time.
We stayed at Kapama which was amazing an amazing resort.

Fantastic from start to finish
As experienced travellers and always designing and booking our holidays, putting that trust into someone else to curate a memorable “once in a life time trip” is a big thing! After ALOT of research, we eventually landed on Compass Odyssey to book our safari. Darren and Kate did not disappoint!! Communication, attention to detail and the personalised service was simply outstanding and nothing was ever a problem.
Our 8-day itinerary consisted of Victoria Falls – Hwange NP – Chobe NP. Right from Victoria Falls airport pickup to saying our goodbyes in Botswana, local guides Ruth and Mortimer were fantastic and all transfers, activities and border crossings went to plan. Ruth was kind enough to take care of our dinner reservation at the Lookout Café and was more than happy to drop us off and pick us up (there is a small extra fee for this, which was outlined in the itinerary from Darren).
The Hide in Hwange NP and the Chobe River Lodge in Botswana were both amazing properties, with great staff, guides and wildlife viewing, and delicious food!
Thankyou again Darren and Kate, for the amazing trip and personalised service, we hope to see you again for another African adventure!

Great service
A great tour company, very easy to organise with and accommodated all my requirements. Our guide Moses was brilliant, this is my 2nd time using him, if I do another Safari, I will only use him.
