Excellent and amazing safari experience!
Our safari with Viola Tours & Travel was more than amazing. They listen very well too our wishes and do what is possible to make it happen. Our guide was a very nice man, good company to be with, speaks very well English, has a lot of humor and, last but not least, has a lot knowledge and experience about Tanzania and the animals. He has put a lot of effort in making our trip one we never will forget. The guide is an important factor of the success of a safari, we were very happy with our guide from Viola.
The vehicle was a new and strong one with everything you need. Very safe as well.
We will definitely come back one day with Viola. They offer value for your money, arranging and guiding the whole safari. Asante sana!

Everything was taken care of in an excellent manner.
The service was excellent and exceeded expectations in all areas. The accomodations, safari tours, guides, flights, transfers and everything could not have been better.

Super Safari recommended to everyone
I was a little skeptical at first because I had planned nothing myself. So we had to rely completely on the planning of free African Tours. We stayed in 4 hotels, each hotel had its own charm and our tour guide Silas always gave us the feeling that someone was there for us. Also with a 6 year old boy it was not a problem. We look forward to the next tour with Silas.

A 5 Star Safari Experience!
The Luxury Safari Company was recommended to me by two separate friends who had already been on holidays booked with the company and they had no hesitation in telling me to email Rose Hipwood! Rose and her team were fantastic and responded very quickly (practically instantaneously) to emails. The lodge she recommended after we had discussed our preferences (and budget!) -Singita Sweni in Kruger National Park in South Africa - was fabulous. Service, food, guide (Walter) and tracker (Howard) for the game drives (we saw the big five), lodge manager Dave Waddington, ALL the staff and the room were excellent. The room had two toilets and two showers (one indoors and one outdoors) - useful when rushing for the early morning game drives! Safari vehicle was very comfortable. We felt very well taken care of and safe. The second leg of our holiday to Cape Town and staying at the Cape Grace Hotel with day tours organized was equally good. During the trip, we were met at all times whenever there was a transfer to be done whether at the airport/hotel etc as per the itinerary. The whole process of organizing the trip was seamless and we would definitely book another holiday with the company.

Wonderful Safari with best driver Kenyatta!
The 4 days safari went around very fast, we saw a lot of animals and had the best rider (Kenyatta) you can imagine!
We were 4 in a Bulli for 8 people so we could spread out, had enough water all the time, which was even ice cold. Previously, we were worried about uneven roads and possible back pain, but the fear was unfounded, even though it was not a Jeep, the Bulli was very well sprung.
The accommodations were also good to even dreamlike (AA lodge at Amboseli).
Kenyatta answered each of our questions with infinite patience, explained us some and discovered animals before we could even guess a shadow from them.
We would definitely recommend it again and next time with kt & safaris book / drive!

Trip of a lifetime
I cannot say enough about Go Wild and their staff. It was a bucket list trip of a lifetime with my family as I turned 50 in Africa and they made every detail incredible! From the first communication, they followed up with timely updates and things we needed to do along with different itinerary options based on what we wanted to do and see. Once in Kenya, we were treated to so many different and wonderful experiences and people. I cannot say enough about Mathew and the guides we met. We left Africa feeling like they were part of our family. Truly a one of a kind experience with every detail taken care of for us.

Best experience ever!
Overall the entire experience exceeded expectations! The booking and communications were both fluent and prompt & there were no concerns or queries upon arrival at Victoria Falls airport to start things off.
The first lodge Ilala was beautiful & such a great start. The staff & services were exceptional, and the food amazing. The free time here was easily filled up with tours and walking about the falls & we loved the relaxed nature.
The connection to Botswana / Chobe was seemingly effortless. Upon arrival at Bakwena Lodge we were treated like royalty. The location and level of service was outstanding. The food again was absolutely class! We had the honeymoon lodge arranged & this was like a dream. As soon as the staff knew it was our honeymoon they went even further out of their way to make things more special by service up an amazing intimate dinner by the water. The safari experiences were breathtaking, including the cruise along the Chobe River. All in all it was a dream experience.
The transfers & flight connections were again prompt & fluent. The next lodge at Machaba Camp on Khwai River lifted the bounds of amazingness even more! This place simply was out of an African dream! The service & food were that good that we both felt humbled. We have never stayed anywhere like this - just thinking about it gives me goosebumps! Imagine a luxury tent where you drift off to sleep to the sounds of hippos literally 30 metres from your pillow, and wake up to the chorus of bird life ( and more hippos!). The safari experiences were like nothing we had ever imagined - words simply do not do it justice. Machaba Camp is like a dream, this was the icing on our African honeymoon.
To conclude, we understand now how difficult arranging connections must be in Africa, but Ute @ Roho ya Chui made the whole experience seemless. It was definitely worth the money for the memories we now have. I would whole heartedly recommend booking a special safari experience through Roho ya Chui to receive a level of absolute class. Many thanks for reading to the end!
