This was the perfect vacation!!!! LOVE IT
We did a 5 day safari with Nkollotours in June for our vacation. Allan offered a perfect service from the very start, answered all our questions and believe me we were annoying, (at least I thought) but he had so much patience, until the end of the tour. We visited 3 National Parks on our trip and enjoyed every single one of them. We were only two people on the tour although we booked the standard tour. The car was in good condition, clean and very secured. Our tour guide, Victor, He knew where to look for hidden animals, he shared his vast knowledge of African wildlife. He even found a private campground were we stayed on our own with all sorts of animals around. Amazing feeling! The tents were new and big enough you could almost stand. We enjoyed to be on a very individual tour. THANKS to Allan for constantly checking on us, we were overwhelmed with his exceptional customer service, assurance and for the best experience in a Safari. I would book again with Allan on a Heartbeat.

Great great great experience!!!
It's not my first safari but for sure it has been the BEST safari ever.
Together with the driver Malaki and chef Action I enjoyed this pleasant 4-days tour.
Ngorongoro crater, Serengeti, lake Manyara were very full of animals and the driver was very expert in finding them. The chef Action prepared typical local food as per our request and accomodation was as expected.
Very great experience.
Highly recommended company.

world class safari with a personal touch
We booked safari in Kenya and Tanzania for two weeks as an intergenerational family trip. Our party ranged from age 7 to 72 and we felt our tour catered to all of our interests and needs. The driver/ guides were wonderful, knowledgeable warm and fun. We learned so much and they really customized each day to suit our desires. We were stunned by the amount of animal life we were able to enjoy and the ability of our guides to steer us to the best viewing experiences. The quality of the accommodations were impeccable . Every lodge was beautiful with excellent food and caring service. The trip was definitely our most memorable and special and we could not have done what we did without the expert logistical support of Asaray tours. Thank you !

Otto's South Tanzania tour
We had with Otto a very good organized tour to the quit south of Tanzania. Ketulo NP; Ruaha NP; Mikumi NP; Selous and at the end a nice stay at the Indian Ocean in the little town of Kilwa. Otto is not only an excellent safari guide with fish eagle eyes, but also a good driver which is necessary in the chaotic Tanzania traffic, specially bus drivers. Otto is flexible with good advices if he thinks the best option is to change the tour. If you need Otto he is there on time, if you don't need him he leaves you alone. In this safari there is a nice mountain walk through the Uluguru mountains. If you don't have a little experience in the mountains , take the same way
back, but go with the local guide Andrew and stay one afternoon and night with the friendly locals there.

wonderful tour and very well done
We very much enjoyed our tour experience with Go Touch Down. Very well done. The idea of small groups was excellent. The accommodations and the various meals at local restaurants was also very good. It was so nice to order directly from a menu and the dinning at the various wineries was fabulous. We really tours to other parts of South Africa. Over all we feel the company did a fabulous job conducting the tour. I have recommended the company to others I have had conversations with. We really enjoyed meeting the company owner as well as the other persons working for the company. Our tour guides were very good particularly "Buckies".

One word - Superb!
Everything from start to finish has quite simply been fantastic.
Melanie from Pembury Tours listened to our likes and dislikes and taylor-made our itinerary to suit. The result? A perfect blend of South African hospitality spread over 42 nights. It really couldn't have been better.
Moreover, it is refreshing to note that the fee to put all this together was more than reasonable. Melanie has been flawless throughout.

Great communication & guides
Prior to booking our safari we exchanged communications with lots of companies but no one matched the cost breakdown and detailed responses from E-Trip who answers questions we didn’t even know we had! This gave a real comfort feel I booking something we had no experience of and on arrival in Tanzania the great service continued. We stayed at Researchers Rest and met Ben who had organised our trip for us in person. We then spent 5 nights on the road with our guide Aladdin who was very informative and did his best to ensure we saw everything we wanted to see (except that pesky rhino which evaded us). The lodges we stayed at we all great, again we took advice from e-trip on this and managed to score some honeymoon discounts. Everything about the whole end to end process was easy and well put together.

Worthwhile experience and an amazing experience
Since my initial inquiry with Axis Africa, they have been very prompt in responding to all my questions and emails. They will ask you for an initial deposit through an African PayPal system, called Pesapal. Do not worry; it's not a scam. If you are a cautious person like me, pay a small deposit and the rest in cash when you meet up your driver.
Our driver and tour guide, Albert, was terrific. We couldn't have asked for someone better. He stopped to explain every animal we came across and even drove us to the furthest point of the Reserve, The Rift Valley, where Tanzania and Kenya divide.
Albert has been very punctual to the schedule, as well. We saw 90% of all the big animals, except for the rhinos.
I am glad that I got to experience a fantastic journey in Africa. It's once in a lifetime moment to see the animals roam freely in their natural habitat.
