Kilimanjaro 6 days
We had an amazing time on the Kilimanjaro trip. Ilmaasai were very friendly and professional from the start. Best price we could find in Arusha and no pressure selling. They helped to hire the right equipment for the climb. The entire team who helped us up the mountain were amazing, very attentive and the guides were fantastic, very patient and encouraging. I would definitely recommend this company for booking any excursions.

I wish I had the chance to go back and change my choice of tour company.
Very poor guide, very old car. We did not feel welcome at all. Unsatisfaction from the beginning to the end. Tanzania is a heavenly country and deserves to be explored with a better company in professional hands.
It was a fantastic service offered.
No communication was made to Rainbow Hotel in advance

An indescribable experience
We did the 6 days Kilimanjaro trekking. We choose the Machame route and the landscape along the way was incredible. It was an amazing experience and that is mainly because of the guide Charles and his crew. Many years of experience and a good sense of humour made us safe and happy all the way to the top.

Beyond expectations !
We, a family of two adults and three teenage kids, recently took an two week safari and beach holiday that we booked through Safari Infinity. Short summary: We could not have made a better choice.
From the initial website enquiry (less than two months before departure) through many ‘could we just change’ emails all pre-holiday planning ran extremely smoothly. There seemed to be nothing Lucia could not arrange or rearrange. All emails were answered quickly, sometimes within minutes, which was exceptional given the time differences between Tanzania and Bangkok. From landing at Kilimanjaro to getting on the plane at the end of the holiday in Zanzibar there was not one, even slight, hitch. Lucia and Simon even took the time to come to our hotel in Arusha to see us off on safari, a nice personal touch.
The accommodation on safari was very well selected, the variety of lodges, permanent camps and tents was ideal; waking to the sounds of lions roaring in the night, sitting around the bush ‘television’ and gazing at the vast number of stars were experiences we won’t forget. Stone Town was an extremely interesting cultural delight with the restful few days at the beach on Zanzibar proving to be a wonderful change of pace and an excellent ending to the holiday.
The safari itself (Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, Central and North Serengeti) was superb. We saw everything we could have asked for; the ‘big five’, multiple cheetahs, many families of elephants, huge herds of zebra, gazelle and wildebeest. Though everyone agreed that the two prides of lions with cubs were the highlight. Osbert was a fantastic guide and driver -- even stopping to help someone else who was stuck in the mud, something he swears would never happen to him ! He was very knowledgeable on both the wildlife, the flora and the history of Tanzania – I don’t think we had one question he could not answer. He had an excellent sense of humour, was great with the kids (15, 16,19) and adults alike and consistently got us into fantastic positions to view and photograph the game. It’s one thing spotting the wildlife it’s something else to have the knowledge to predict where the prowling cheetah or lion will move to so that we can be in the best place to watch it pass within a few metres of our jeep. Osbert also chose some fantastic places for breakfast and lunch picnics – one that ended up being in the middle of the great migration! He was happy to vary the plan for the day so we got the most out of the safari and even volunteered to get up early on our final day for “one last game drive”.
We would happily recommend Safari Infinity to our family and friends.

wonderful trip
I had a flawless trip from start to finish, and feel I got a very personalized approach from Planet Africa. I wanted to see lions, and Leah was super throughout the planning. The two camps were a dream come true.

The experience of a lifetime!
Our trip could not have been more perfect from the moment of our arrival. Giraffes crossed our path from the jeep trek from the landing strip to our beautiful accommodations at Phinda Mountain Lodge, and my husband and I felt like kids all over again in our excitement. The friendly staff greeted us from the moment we arrived with a refreshment and cool towel. Our room was spacious and beautifully appointed; and the meals we had were simple and delicious during our 5 day stay. Ian, our amazing guide, was extraordinarily knowledgeable and the passion he has for his work was contagious. There were so many photographic opportunities that I was starting to feel like the paparazzi of the Animal Kingdom, and I came home with some incredible moments to treasure forever. I cannot wait to go back!!!

If you want the best - choose Savannah
I take a group to Tanzania each year as I run a Project there. We have travelled extensively in Tanzania and Savannah have looked after us on every occasion. I cannot fault their attention to detail and their care and consideration is exemplary. Their drivers are reliable, friendly and caring. Their knowledge of wildlife and the ways of the country are second to none.
I cannot recommend Savannah highly enough.

Absolutely amazing!
We did a three days budget safari to Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Charles as tour guide. The safari car was the best we have seen, and we had so much fun camping at the most beautiful campsites. Charles was an excellent guide, everything was so professional and he knew so much info about the animals and he spotted several cheetahs and leopards from a distance, it was an absolutely amazing trip!

Fantastic 3 day 2 night camping safari in Chobe
We would absolutely recommend Africa Zim if you're coming to Vic Falls and are looking for things to do and want to hop over to Botswana for a safari! We booked fairly last minute (2 weeks notice) and they were very accommodating and booked our safari with their Botswana sister company Kalahari Tours. They thought of everything for us (we took them up on their very reasonable airport transfers) and they always responded in less than 24hrs. Pretty and Harrison met us at the airport and also arranged for us to do the bungee jump (took us to the border, booked it for us, and handled all paperwork. When it came to the safari, Blessing drove us to and from the border and walked us through immigration and customs. Our safari guide Sinka picked us up from there and we were on our way to the river cruise. David and Isaac were our river guides and were extremely professional and knowledgeable. Camping and the safaris were incredible and totally as described (although be prepared to only bring one small bag to camp, we missed that memo). Can't thank Africa Zim enough, we loved it.
