Best Trip Ever
Hi Lindy,
Just got off the phone to you and thought I had better reply straight away incase the world got in the way and I forgot.
Mum Kevin and myself had the best time in South Africa and would not have changed a thing in the itinerary.
If we had to pick a highlight it was The Hyde. Daryl and Toppers were amazing along with all the staff. Food, atmosphere, wildlife did not disappoint. Even the 5.30am cool mornings in a tent were ok as we got dressed so quickly to meet the car. Hot water bottle was a welcome surprise in the evening bed. We felt we had privacy yet met some wonderfull people.They have the business plan all worked out.
All our pickups were ready and waiting for us throughout the stay and the detailed information given and also the app made checking easy. We loved the small air flights and the longest drive was to Motswari and we saw elephants, Lions, Wild Dogs,and Buffalo on the drive in.
Vic Falls was a relaxing interlude and the helicopter ride was a must to really understand the topography of the falls. It was also the best souvenir shopping in the streets walking back from the falls.
Rissington Inn was a relaxing transition to Motswari.
Motswari was very comfortable and once again would not have changed a thing. Due to the density of the trees and undergrowth animals were a little harder to find, but find we did. The only animal we did not see in our travels was a Cheetah. The accomodation was the most comfortable overall but The Hide won on a lot of little extras eg waterproof wool lined ponchos on the drives. And an almost over abundance of animals.
One again I would just like to thank you all so much for listening to our brief and your attention to every detail eg tipping, weather, what to pack, etc. I can not tell you how many times we easily could refer to all your info.
Please feel free to show future guests this information.
Warmest regards,
Jeannette,Sue and Kevin.

Best holiday ever - made even better by the service provided by Kim W
From start to finish Kim was amazing.
She provided a suggested itinerary, which over a couple of weeks was tweaked to give us a perfect plan for our safari in Botswana and Vic Falls.
We chatted over WhatsApp, which made things very easy.
3 days before our departure date I ended up in hospital with a chest infection. This is when Kim really came to the rescue.
She managed to rebook everything for a week later. She made herself available over the weekend.
I cannot speak highly enough of how Kim helped rescue our holiday. I have travelled extensively over many decades and Kim is by far the best I have ever come across.
And the holiday. Well that was amazing. Every lodge in Botswana was top class and the stay at Vic Falls equally fantastic.
If you want a safari to remember don't think twice about using Safari Online.
The other bonus was the cost was 20% cheaper than the competitors.
Kim we cannot thank you enough.

Unforgettable amazing tour with Dennies from Jocky Tours
Unforgettable amazing experience to meet the wildlife with Dennis. We joined a 6 nights/7 days safari tour from Mara-Nakuru—Naivasha-Amboseli, lucky to see all the big five and hunting of the lions and cheetah , Leopard and rhinoceros, elephants walking in front of the mountains, hippopotamus eating grass at night. We do enjoy our trip very much and Dennies took a really good care to make sure we are comfortable during this trip. He is very gentle and thoughtful, shared stories of the wild animals and culture in Kenya. All the hotels are very nice too with good service and view. We do recommend going safari with Dennis and jocky.

Amazing safari trip with Dennis and Jocky Tours
My wife and I planned our trip to Kenya well in advance. We spent a lot of time comparing different safari options and agencies. Finally, we chose Jocky Safari.
Our driver and guide -Dennise was great. He's a great driver (really important driving from one national park to another), we has a great eye so he caught a lot of animals for us, he was always on time and took a good care of the car. Everything, with one exception, was according to plan and our guode didn't try to make us do something.
While safari, we were lucky enough to see cheetahs and lions hunting, large groups of elephants, zebras, giraffes, wildebeests, and gazelles. Even more fortunately, Dennies always got information, he found a leopard in Nakuru Park and collected all the big five for us. He also shared a lot of information and stories of the wildlife and the culture in Kenya.
Jocky Safari isn't the cheapest option, but as safari is always expensive, it's worth for money to have fun in Kenya.

Thanks to Joseph and George, I had a wonderful Safari tour in Kenya.
I'm really lucky and glad that I choosed extra miles. Joseph really helped me a lot. His schedule was the best and most carefully. He mentioned all the details which makes me easily to understand all the travel plan. He gave me professional advice, reply all my questions in time. He can understand this trip is very important to me. My flight was changed by airline on the day I depart from China. I was so worried but Joseph replied my message in early morning and find the best way to help me solve the problem. Thanks to him that all my trip is very smoothly.
And my guide George, he surprised me because he can speak some Chinese. He is friendly and alway find the animals fast. He tried him best to help me find what I want to see.
Extra miles really helped me to have a wonderful memory in Kenya. Thanks to them I had a very nice trip. I would highly recommend them！

Local, reliable and really friendly
We did the second safari with this company. We like it because it is a small tanzanian company, the guides have a lot of expirience and most of them are working since many years with shammah wonders. Besides that we were lucky to see the boss of the company on our last day. The relationship between the boss and the employees seems like a family.
We would really recommend this company to everybody.
