well planned 3 week circuit
We were 2 couples, who wanted to explore South Africa and from our search we found Southern African Tours to be the most comprehensive and the owner, Craig Lucke to be very helpful in changing the little bit we wished to change.
Craig is an excellent guide; he loves his country, which clearly shows in his way of guiding.
He is enthusiastic, knowledgeable and a very pleasant person to be with, which is so important, when you share a car for 21 days.
He went above and beyond, what was expected from the programme, added extra without expecting extra payment and also gave the four of us time alone, when possible.
We stayed in lovely guesthouses and game lodges around the country and thoroughly enjoyed our tour.
We can heartily recommend Craig and Southern African Tours.

Unbelievable experience
We had a small budget for the safari tour, so we were looking for the most smart proposal from the tour operators. Were contacting many companies to discuss the program and to work out the best scheme how to optimize the costs and to visit all places we wanted to. The most value for money proposal was done by Nagi Tours.
After all I would definitely recommend this operator! We spent 4 wonderful days while travelling through National Parks and the atmosphere of the trip was so friendly and cool that I will remember this experience forever!! Gilbert is a perfect teller and driver and we had a chance not only to see all the beauties of a virgin nature and lots of wild rare animals, but also learned much about the manners and customs of Africa! We (group of 3 young women) felt safe, well fed, slept in cosy tents and by the end of our trip had more than 10 gigabites of photos :)
If you plan a trip of your life you should contact to Nagi Tours prefessionals, they will make your trip unforgettable! Hakuna Matata! :)

Excellent personalised safari, well organised and communicated
I was very happy with the service provided by Amazing Tanzania. I got quick replies to my emails with plenty of information, and a nice itenary was made and adjusted according to our wishes. Although a safari costs a lot of money I really feel that we got value for money. The safari guide that Amazing Tanzania arranged for us was very nice and professional. He really took his time to explain us a lot about (the behavior of) the animals, and gave us plenty of time (and even tips) to take pictures whenever we wanted. We spotted a great variety of animal species. I was especially impressed by the Tarangire National Park, with all it's elephants.

Good Safari, bad personal treatment
I personally don't recommend this Company to make a safari. I did 4 days safari and they changed my planning because I wanted to do only 3. The person in charge of taking you to the car, get the money and arange everything treated me as if i were only money and he lied to me several times. On the other hand the safari was fine and the driver and the cook were really friendly.

amazing days with lewis
My friend and I had 4 amzazing days on safari with lewis. He's so helpful and he shows us so many diffrents parts of Tanzania. The beautiful landcapes of africa, the life in the small village, the religion, the massais and the culture. He look for us every day like a father. He organized everything. So we are so grateful to kwon him, he is a perfect guide.
If you want see more then just the big animals, shika tours is the perfect organisation to book your trip in Tanzania.
Best adventure ever,they went beyond my expectations
They were very fast in responding to my request,they took my request quite personally and offered the best adventure ever.

Better than a trip of a lifetime
In booking our trip with African Scenic Safaris we could not be more thrilled with not only the amazing time we had but also the attention that we received before the trip even began. Amanda was unwavering in the high level of service she offered by answering the many questions we had, offering the best suggestion and solutions for what we wanted to do and any changes we wished to make. We were initially a little apprehensive about being in a truck with our driver/guide for six days but this was totally unfounded. Our driver Tom was incredible, he fit in like part of our family from the beginning and made sure that the trip was not only great for us but also for our two girls. It’s understandable that many families he has done safaris with in the past return time and time again to do it all over again. Tom’s knowledge extends to not only animals and the landscape but also to the country's various tribes, the environment, and the many different social and economic aspects of it – this was imperative in answering all of my husbands un-ending list of questions. Overall we were highly impressed with the service we received from African Scenic Safaris, the comfort of our vehicle, the standards of accommodation at all lodges/camp sites/etc and most importantly our driver/guide Tom. We will definitely be back at some time in the future and will look towards this company to help us arrange our itinerary – and of course request Tom!
Our sincerest thanks Amanda, Tom and the rest of the African Scenic Safari team for making our safari as amazing as it was.

A fantastic three-day private tour tailored to our interests
The 3-day tour of the Southern Cape, Agulhas, Safari & Little Karoo was as billed: a wonderful drive along the spectacular southern coast visiting a penguin colony, and viewing many bird species and animals. A stop at Cape Agulhas, southern tip of the continent and stay over at an austere but clean beach house. Day 2 we traveled through historic towns, stopped at the aloe factory and had brunch at the perfect Blue Crane. We went to Botlierskop for a “big 5” safari. The drive covered a huge, gorgeous landscape with a good guide but very few animals. After the safari we continue to the town of Oudtshoorn (via the Robertson’s pass), which is the capital of the Little Karoo, renowned for its spectacular arid landscapes, fossil finds, succulent desert plants and had dinner (ostrich carpaccio, figs and fresh farm cheeses!) and stayed at the incomparable De Denne Country Guest House near the Highgate Ostrich farm. Our guide Derek Keeling was terrifically knowledgeable and flexible, allowing us to skip the caves and tour the ostrich farm, and explore the towns the Route 62 wine route between two mountain ranges on day 3, completing our 800 mile round-trip that started and ended in Cape Town. I would do it all again in a heartbeat!
