Nairobi Day Tour
Matea Tours was very easy to work with - I was coordinating a day trip in Nairobi from overseas, and Georgette was very helpful, quick to respond, and offered good suggestions. We ended up having an amazing itinerary: Morning game drive in Nairobi National Park, visit to the Elephant Orphanage, the Giraffe Centre, and a visit to the Karen Blixen Museum. To make this day trip even better, we had an amazing tour guide named Patrick - he was very informative and has a great sense of humour. I would highly recommend requesting Patrick as your tour guide if you decide to do a similar or edited version of our itinerary. Everything was smooth, safe, and 100% memorable. Great company!

Customer service excellence; fantastic recommendations; no hiccups; awesome trip
I used African Encounter based on a recommendation and am so glad I did. They took away all the headaches and their first hand knowledge of where to go and stay based on the time we had were all spot on. They suggested a meet and greet at joberg airport which was great to get us through immigration and customs; then the option to fly or drive to the safari parks was also fantastic. Their communication exceeded all expectations - quick replies to email queries and nothing was too much trouble. Very professional itinerary and the price was extremely competitive. Then the trip: We loved every minute of our 10 day safari at 4 different lodges. Our transfers were always there on time and very professional and each lodge was unique and had its own highlights. It was my dream to go to south africa and i couldn't have done it without African Encounters. I am hard to please but in this case i couldn't fault anything and would highly recommend this company. Upon our return was a followup Email asking for feedback☺ - just brilliant.

Great Safari Experience
As a single female, i decided at the last minute to change my travel plans and include Tanzania on my 8 days East African Tour. I emailed Amy at Africa Remote Safari to see if she could assist me with planning an 8-day all inclusive trip. Within an hour, i received a quote and itinerary that was exactly what i was looking for. Amy also assured me that she would get the best guide to make me feel more comfortable. Africa Remote Safaris far exceeded my expectations and not only put together the most amazing tour of Tanzania and Kenya, covering everything in 8 days, but also everything worked within my budget. I have traveled to over 37 countries now and i can say, without a doubt that Africa Remote Safaris is the only tour company that has ever exceeded my expectations and done so with a quality of customer service that is very rare. Thank you Africa Remote Safaris.

Not bad, but it doesn't feel like it is the trip of the life time
We had an OK time with our tour guide Anwar. He was good when we first meet him. He was explaining things while driving on the first day. From the 2nd day onward, our guide was more interested in looking at his phone . Instead of guiding, he would most just answer our questions.
The Olea Lodge and Kati Kati camps are the good choice for our 4 nights stay. We were delighted to see the Olea Lodge is actually a lot better than the photos. Kati kati camp was an interesting experience. They have a good crew to make sure the food is hot and good. Our guide changed one of the full day game drive to go back to camp for 3 hours lunch and then tried to drive fast to catch up in the afternoon. We were not impressed as we have a five year old girl in the car and would prefer steady driving.
We were there in the low season, so there are some animals here and there but didn't have the "Wow" factor.
We are not happy that we almost missed our flight on the last day as the guide was late for about 40 to 50 minutes to pick us up from the hotel. Maybe our experience would be better if our guide was more Enthusiastic and not focused so much on his phones.

Alex Marti of Larga - the most capable, caring & knowledgeable guide; loved his stories!
This was a tour of a lifetime. Alex Marti and his crew took us to excellent areas where we truly felt in the wild of Tanzania. He knows the locals, the parks, the animals and habitats. He understands and works to preserve the culture of tribal life and has a deep reverence for the land and wildlife. I felt safe and cared for-- and had many amazing encounters with elephants, lions and many others. I cannot say enough about Alex and his crew-- at the end of our time, I felt I made a dear friend and would recommend his company to anyone.

Nice service
In early November, we startet our trip to Kenya The preparation and booking process with Safarihub was excellent. I always recieved an helping answer to my (many) questions within 24 hours. The service and the experience in kenya was by far the best, we've ever had with a travel company
