Unforgettable experience!
Highly and trully reccomend Kilismile to everyone who looking for a real, unforgettable mountain experience with a pinch of Tanzanian humour and music. We've got much more than we'd ever expected. Kilimanjaro with Kilismile was not only a trekking to the top of Africa. It was one in a lifetime experience, wich will stay in our memories forever! Beautiful views, amazing nature, the most spectacular sky at night, sunrises and sunsets. All of these were fantastic, but it wouldn't be the same without the amazing Tanzanian team from Kilismile. They've done their job perfectly with the beautiful, honest smile all the time! They helped us a lot, I've got no words how grateful I'm! They took care of us for six days, but they've done much more than be just guides, porters, cooks or waiters. They've done it in a such way that we felt they were a part of our group. Not as they were at work. They spend hours on talking with us, laughing and singing together. Were always kind and ready to help. Proffesionals with a huge knowledge and skills. But primarily - great people with fantastic sense of humour, massive respect to others and huge joy of life. Massive thank you to every member of our team - Oscar, Selestini, Godwin, Winston, Fred, Evans, Ramadan, Salim and others - you're great people, I'm glad I could met you! You've been strangers, became great friends :)

great safari in Tanzania Southern parks
we enjoyed 5 days safari with family in Selous, Mikumi and Ruaha. The organisation was just perfect, the guide Miriam very nice and the driver an expert despite the roads! they took very good care of us and made sure we had everything we needed. Only downside if I may was the car which already went through many safaris and was a litle old... thanks to the great driver we never felt in danger though!
Margaret who booked all the accomodation for us always made sure everything was going well and that was very much appreciated as we could add a visit in Zanazibar at the last minute!

Memorable 10 day safari & beach excursion!
We had a positive experience with Eyes on Africa and would recommend them as a great company to book your private East African adventures with. Agnes was extremely patient, attentive, and responsive during the process of building our itinerary. She listened to feedback and adjusted accordingly to ensure that our experience was shaped to our satisfaction (and within our price range). Our guide in Kenya (George) was spectacular and I highly recommend requesting him. Our guide in Tanzania (Mohamed) was not as great (but, adequate) and we would not recommend him. We were able to spot all of the big five animals everyday (rhinos only at the Crater, though) and noted around 30 different animals overall. We enjoyed learning and speaking Swahili with the friendly staff throughout our stay. Overall we felt that the variety of our accommodations and sites were very good. There were only a couple negative accommodation issues. We felt safe, well taken care of, prepared, and with everything being handled by Eyes on Africa we enjoyed every minute instead of worrying about travel logistics!

Everything went very smoothly with excellent recommendations.
Very good contact with our agent and good travel details. Wonderful lodges and great personal animal experiences shared just between us and our guide. Our desert island experience on Fanjove was a perfect choice and we loved everything about it. All in all a perfect holiday experience with excellent hosts and guides.

We had a fantastic 5 days safari booked with Lion King Adventures and everything worked out perfect!
Booking with Lion King Adventures went very smothly and they lived up to our expectations al the way. All the accommodations also lived up to their standards, very clean, good food and friendly.
My favorite was Serengeti and the Heritage tent camp, with it's view.
Our safari guide Gilbert did his very best to get close and did not give up before we had spoted all the animals to see : ) Gilbert made us also feel safe during the way.

An extremely exciting, enjoyable vacation we will be talking about for years to come!
Rahab was very communicative and helpful during the planning stages of this vacation, and once all of the details were settled, she continued to answer any questions or concerns, and reached out as our travel dates neared. During the safari week, she would check in and make sure everything was going well, that we were happy with our accommodations, our driver, the schedule, etc. We were able to relax and enjoy this trip to the maximum because every detail was taken care of from the time we stepped off the airplane in Nairobi! Rahab, our driver, John, the accommodations, staff and experiences in Maasai Mara and Nakuru exceeded our expectations! Rahab ensured our vacation was absolutely magical! I can’t wait to go back to Kenya and I will definitely be using Rahab and her group to plan our return trip!

Top quality customer service with great experiences
Simon and his team did a superb job of making me feel welcome and taking care of my needs and queries. My 5 day trip was well organised and each activity delivered what was described. Chobe National Park is stunning and gentle cruises on the Zambezi and Chobe rivers were super relaxing despite the crocs and hippos!
African Beast arranged a croc cage dive for me which was amazing and gave me lots of useful advice and help including printing visas for me for later in my trip.
Great guys who I would highly recommend!

A gem
I lucked out with this one. I don't know if it's Discover Africa or its agent Matthys who is to credit, but the treatment I received was way beyond expectation. Matthys invested a lot of thought and effort in devising a month long trip and customizing it time and again by my comments. Prices were fair too.
I highly recommend them with no reservations whatsoever

Our trip to Hwange, Chobe and Vic falls was another fabulous, magical experience thanks to Tongesai
Cultural Vibes Travel and Tours has proved to be excellent in every way yet again as this is the second time we have used them. Tongesai Mtematsaka (Company Director) is very reliable, professional, knowledgeable and does everything to make your experience a trip of a lifetime. We felt that our holiday with Tongesai was much better and suited us more so than if we had booked through a larger company. His individual tailoring, personal involvement and attention to detail pays off in the smooth running of your trip. We felt completely safe with him which was important to us as we had our 7 year old grand daughter with us.
Wildlife was in abundance numerous lions, hundreds of elephant and a leopard that we had been following as it was walking through the bush eventually came down and sat on the bank beside us! After posing for a few minutes for a photo shoot it got up and walked back up the bank - couldn't believe it.
I have no hesitation in recommending the company for arranging tours in Zimbabwe, Zambia or Botswana - we will definitely be seeing him again.
