Spotless and comfortable accommodation and helpful tour arrangements.
Bongani is a great host and a superior business owner. His lodge is very modern, spotlessly clean, roomy and comfortable. His attention and amenity to guests is top notch. Being in the village instead of an isolated lodge was by far the better choice.
He arranged four game drives and a panorama route tour for me in my 5 days with him.
The only area of improvement I found was that he could expand the choices for guests to include the boat tour available in Blyde River which I wasn't aware of and would've liked to do in exchange for or in addition to one of the shorter game drives even for an additional cost. He did try to get me on a morning bush walk, although it didn't work out, I appreciated the willingness and effort!
Overall, top service, top accommodation, great food and service, amazing experience!!

He was very good and informative about the place.
Our tour to murchsion falls was lovely and the tour guide was very friendly and informative. We got to see all the big 4’s in the murchsion falls national park. The timing was so good in that we didn’t find any handles. Thank you wild jungle trails. Looking forward to working with you more…..

Just one word is needed "PERFECT"
My wife and I had a wonderful time with Yhun and his team on a previous visit to
Ethiopia,so it was without hesitation that we asked him to put together a 6 day
trip to the Omo valley, which was the only part of the country that we did not see
on our last visit.
Yhun and his excellent driver Sisay drove us South on a very special adventure
in which we enjoyed wonderful visits to many special places enroute to the main
objective of our trip, which was to visit the various tribes that are scattered far and wide in the Omo valley.
Yhun and Sisay have been there many times before so they knew exactly where
we needed to be at the right time to maximise the time that we spent in the tribal
areas..
In particular we loved our visit to the Mursi's where the ladies wear their distinctive
lip plates and of course the highlight was the bull jumping by the young men of the
Hamer Tribe to prove their manliness.
This is not an everyday event but Yhun and Sisay went to great lengths to make
sure we did not miss this and had a first class seat.
Another highlight was the dugout canoe trip across the Omo river to visit another
Isolated tribal village hidden away in this wonderful part of the world.
All in all another wonderful trip with Liyu Tours, which we could not fault the organisation in any way.
We could not imagine any other company bettering this service.

Excellent value for money and my guide Evance could tell a lot with enthusiasm
Overall, I had a great experience during this safari. The pickup organised by Safarilink was fine. We made two stops on the way to the transfer point in Hoedspruit. As Safarilink transports people for different safaris, we were collected by the staff of this safari. After a quick drive, we arrived at the tent camp. My travel companion was not on the list, but this was not a problem after the pickup staff member checked with the camp. I think this happened because that person was added to the booking after I finalized the initial booking.
After arriving we had some time to relax until the sunset game drive. The beds were comfortable and in perfect condition. The game drive was done by Moditlo game reserve itself with their guides. They did it with fun and of course the expected caution. I experienced them as very professional with plenty of knowledge about the animals we saw.
Dinner was with all the guests, including people who arrived earlier. They cook original African and they did accommodate my Vegetarian diet.
The next day was early, we left at 5 am to go to Kruger. Our guide Evance (from the camp) did the tour in Kruger National Park. We drove more than 180 kilometres in 9 hours with plenty of time to stop if we saw something interesting. Evance told us some background information about the animals when we saw them. That was informative and nice and not too long. He kept it to nice fun facts and general information. We were free to ask questions about the animals and most of the time we got a nice answer. He talked to other drivers as well to know what they saw where.
The Panorama Tour was nice, we had good weather and the views were amazing, but I think the day in Kruger was the best day of the safari. If I am back in this area, I wouldn't do the Panorama Tour area again but spend more time in the nature reserves. For the first time in this area, I enjoyed the Panorama Tour and it was a nice day.
On the last day, we did nothing except drive back to Johannesburg airport, but if we wanted we could have done the optional excursions.
A relaxing morning was nice after some early starts.
Be prepared as wild animals as impalas walking and grazing around the tents.
After all, I enjoyed this trip. It was one of the best things I did in my two weeks in South Africa. Compared to other tours, it had a great value for money. All the staff was very kind and friendly.
If I have to say something negative, we had to pay to refill our bottles with drinking water if we were at the camp. Plenty of water was freely provided while on the excursions.

Fantastic
My experience with Tai Adventure was excellent 👌 compared to previous agents that I have used before. They organised a 2 days retreat at Lake Nakuru National Park and Hells Gate National Park. The safari van was always clean and the driver ensured we were comfortable answering all our questions during the drivers. Best experience, and looking forward to join them again.

Honest and professional service!
Unique experience that was greatly improved by Ronald the guide! We saw the triple horned chameleon and the rwenzori turaco which was a goal of the trip! Thanks a lot to Emma for coordinating and being flexible to my schedule!
