Excellent tour to Kruger National Park
Mmilo tours was one of the 3 options we found in terms of good price/offer/recommendation for a 4 day Krueger with Panorama Tour and it did not dissapoint. Transfer from OR Tambo to our lodge was a bit uncomfortable as the minibus was absolutely full but not their fault as it is something controlled by a 3rd party (arrive early to the station to get a good seat). We had a driver waiting for us who took us to Pestana Krueger Lodge. The place is fantastic as it is located near to one of the gates of the park near the crocodile river and you can literally see animals coming for water. The overall stay in the lodge was awesome. Room could have newer furniture and a less noisy AC but overall rested very well. Our game drives were phenomenal except for day 1 as we did not see anything but again, part of the experience as they are wild animals. The panorama tour was great, only con was that our driver was very quiet (wouldve love for him to explain a bit more things) but a really nice person and enjoyed everything. Transport back to OR Tambo was much better as we arrived early and grabbed nice seats in the shuttle. Not the cheapest option but definitely worth every dollar. Would highly recommend it!

Rufus was great!
Onne from Wild Wings was very helpful in planning a very last minute trip. He made himself available after regular work hours for any questions. All my transfers, hotels, tours were top rated!
Our safari guide, Rufus, was great! He was very knowledgeable about Kruger and all the animals we saw. He was very personable and always a great chef.
Shawn, the guide, in Cape Town was excellent. We spent all day exploring Cape Town and its surrounding areas. We covered of ground in one days.
I would highly recommend Wild Wings for your next African adventure!

My African Safari Dream Accomplished
Embarking on a safari with Balu Travel in Kenya was an absolute dream come true! From the moment we connected with Morris, who meticulously crafted our itinerary highlighting the stunning landscapes of Lake Nakuru and the iconic Maasai Mara, we knew we were in for an unforgettable adventure.
Our journey was flawlessly guided by the incredible duo, Jeremy and John, whose expertise and warmth enhanced every moment of our safari. Their dedication to ensuring our comfort and satisfaction knew no bounds, making our private experience truly exceptional.
The accommodations at Sopa Lodges exceeded all expectations, offering luxurious comfort amidst the wild beauty of Kenya's landscapes. Each day brought new culinary delights, as we savored mouthwatering dishes that reflected the vibrant flavors of the region.
But the true highlight of our safari was the wildlife encounters. From witnessing majestic herds roam freely across the savannah to the spine-tingling moment when we came upon a lion feasting, every sighting was a testament to the profound knowledge and skill of our guides. Jeremy and John's passion for the wildlife and ecosystems of Kenya was contagious, enriching our experience in ways we never imagined.
In the end, our safari with Balu Travel was nothing short of magical. It's an experience we'll cherish forever, thanks to the impeccable service, unparalleled expertise, and genuine hospitality of everyone at Balu Travel. If you're seeking an adventure of a lifetime, look no further than Balu Travel for an unforgettable journey through the heart of Africa.

They are professional and skilled in their work
One should experience a Safari at least once in his life. Of course, Serengeti African tour will be the best option for this experience.

Reliable, professional and great fun!
During the preparation phase, it was great having such good communication with John from Kenya Bush Expeditions (KBE). Responses were very swiftly and we could discuss the price and specific details very openly. During the first day of the Safari itself, we were very grateful that the driver was waiting for us outside our hotel and that the rest of the payment was done easily at the office of KBE in town (I had transferred a first payment online in advance, nothing out of the ordinary). The Safari, four days from Nairobi to Mombasa via Amboseli, Tsavo West and East, with three nights in lodges, was outstanding! Of course, April is low season, so to seeing many animals can be challenging, but it was great being there in nature and enjoying all the different and ever-changing landscapes.
Especially, we would like to highlight our driver, guide and great companion Geoffrey. He was very professional with overall good knowledge of nature and animals in the different parks. Furthermore, he was very flexibel in adjusting the program to our needs and in arranging- if necessary - additional things for us. As a reliable and safe driver he was also always in time. He gave us enough time to ourselves in the car, but was always present for answering questions and gave enough information during our Safari. Four days together means something and for us it was a perfect match.
KBE, John and especially Geoffrey, again, many thanks, all the best and hope to seeing you again in beautiful Kenya! Thank you for an excellent journey.

Perfect Panorama Route Private Tour with Lambs
I took the Panorama Route Tour with Lambs from Sekekama Tented Camp. I didn’t know it would be completely private and I was a little saddened to know that it was. However, Lambs made up for it with his companionship, offering fun and educational conversations about the route itself and its varied sights. He took wonderful pictures of me as well and explained everything clearly. He was quite funny and energetic too so there was never a dull moment. We saw the best sights of the beautiful Blyde River Canyon, including the Three Rondavels, Potholes, God’s Window, Lisbon Falls and Berlin Falls. The Three Rondavels was probably the highlight with its amazing landscape views featuring giant mountains and impressive rivers but every stop is a must. And, going off all of that, this tour is a must!

Exciting experience
We did a 5 day safari in early May, visiting Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro national parks. Wildlife was everywhere, so close I couldn't imagine it was possible.
Our guide Damian was great. Super friendly, always doing everything possible to make sure that we have the best experience and see the most.
Accommodation in lodges was nice. Good food, welcoming staff, and picturesque locations.
Daniel keeped us briefed and informed, and Tizia helped us organize the tour smoothly and promptly do last minute changes.
Overall, 10/10 would do again.
