Exceeded our expectations
5/5

On our most recent trip to Botswana, Walter, our wonderful agent, booked us with Belmond properties in Chobe, Okavango Delta and Khwai River and they exceeded our expectations. The highlight of this trip was definitely getting out of the car and doing a water safari in the Okavango Delta. The sunsets, scenery and wildlife were amazing. As there was so much water in Khwai River, our airstrip was under water, so we had to be helicoptered into the camp, which was an added bonus! Despite there being less wildlife than normal due to the water, we did manage to see a pack of wild dogs, owls, kudu and our guide took us further away where we ended up seeing the elusive leopard. All in all, we have booked a few safaris now with Safari Online and we keep using them as they are always quick to respond and our holidays have been amazing!

Once in a lifetime trip; VERY well planned 5 day safari
5/5

We had a friend of ours recommend Charles at Tanganyika for our Tanzania honeymoon adventure. Charles worked hard to make sure everything I wanted to do was incorporated and fit into the budget. So much coordinating must have gone on behind the scenes because everything went very smoothly. Charles has a trained eye for spotting wildlife, and a fun personality to spend 5 days with. He communicated very well, and was extremely professional in every way. Glad to call him a new friend after this trip.

Nature did not disappoint either. Charles is very well connected and can get on the radio to find out the best spots, so we were never far away from something exciting. March in the southern Seregeti seems to be a good time to go to this part of the world with the Great Migration. With newborns beside their mamas, there's some exciting hunts to catch. Unlike Central Serengeti, you can drive off-path to get up close and personal with the wildlife in Southern Serengeti, where the Great... Read more Migration is at this time of year.

My only feedback would be to accept some sort of electronic payment (ie PayPal, Venmo, Google Wallet, etc.) instead of needing to wire most of the money ahead of time.

Expensive trip, but a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Thanks Charles!

An experience like no other
5/5

I visited Tanzania with my partner and had a beautiful holiday together with the Footslopes & Tours team. They were very attentive people and provided excellent service during the safaris, both food, lodging and guide. Our guide was Becca, who gave us all the information we needed regarding animals and their customs and others. We visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara..and we saw the big five !!! Among other species such as zebras, giraffes, impalas, etc.
I recommend this tour company a 100%. It was the best vacation of our lives !!

3 days on safari in Masai Mara
5/5

There are so many options when selecting a safari company in Kenya, and my friends and I were so happy with our choice with African Suburbs Adventure. From the prompt communication with Lamech when organizing our trip to when our safari came to an end, we for sure never regretted going with African Suburbs Adventure!!!

Samuel our guide was prompt and reliable, and quickly put us at ease and went over all me and my friends could expect and would need to know, and while he had things amazingly under control, he was always open to being flexible with the plan.

Samuel has many years of experience and knows the roads, the parks and all the people we came across. Besides that Samuel is also amazing with animal spotting. It was him finding most of the animals, giving us some time, and then calling other guides who were not having as much luck. We saw everything we hoped to including leopards, and both white and black rhinos.

A big thank you to Lamech and Samuel - me and my friends had such a wonderful time, and we will be in touch when we will be back in Kenya, and we will not hesitate to recommend you to our friends and people we know!!! Thanks for a great and wonderful time in Kenya!

It was an amazing experience in all facets
5/5

I found the Africa on Foot camp so wonderful. The staff were fantastic, I liked the fact that we blended into the surroundings (the cabins and layout)without the five star fanfare. And the food was very good without being lavish, satisfying and plenty of it. The size of the groups was also very enjoyable.

I saw four out of five of the big ones, no elephants sadly but I had seen them on my previous trip in their natural habitat.

I did a walking tour which was amazing, I learnt so much. No one else wanted to walk so it was just the guide and myself. We didn’t see any big animals, I had already seen them the previous day, but I learnt a lot about critters, the trees, the patterns of the animals.

I really had a wonderful experience with nothing to criticise.

Our crew Godie and James did a great job showing us the beatiful north of Kenya. Our personal highlight was going through Chalbi and Lake Turkana. Also the food was super delicious amazing African meals and fresh fruits every day! We will be back for one of their other trips!

Great Budget Masai Mara Safari
5/5

Arrived on a very early flight and was able to start a 3day Masai Mara safari the same day. Airport pickup, was brought to a house nearby to rest for a couple of hours and shower, then driven to the centre of Nairobi to join the other tour members. Communication was excellent prior to my arrival and everything ran smoothly. The safari itself was amazing, lions, leopards, cheetahs, hippos, elephants, cape buffalo, wildebeest, ostriches, hyenas, jackals & many other animals and birds our driver was able to somehow spot and identify. As it was low season I had my own huge tent in our camp for two nights, the food was also excellent & there was plenty of it (buffet-style).

The only downsides were a German couple in our van who stayed at a more upmarket camp far from ours, we spent a bit of time making the bumpy journey over there to pick them up every time, but our driver made up for lost time by staying longer in the park. Also beware that the last 70km or so in the van to get to the camp are on probably the worst road I have ever been on in my life, but for the price of this tour it's worth putting up with.

Very good experience
5/5

Great experience at a quite affordable price. They pick you up at the border. They are very responsible and help you with everything, from equipment rent to hotel booking. I strongly recommend to count with them!
