Outstanding service
We just returned from an absolutely amazing Safari. Just wanted to let you know that we really loved the trip and especially loved Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater, we now understand why it’s known as the 7th wonder of the natural world! The accommodation we stayed in was comfortable and we felt very well looked after. Thank you so much for a great service and we will definitely be back!

Five star game environment and country hospitality at competitive prices
Every cottage and camp site has a river view. The restaurant food is good and the lounge / pub / entertainment area is spacious and comfortable, always with a view of the river. We had elephant munching the tree next to us at night. Game drives both day and night are available. Zikomo Safari Camp is away from other lodges so the safari bush experience is enhanced.

About Wild Things Safaris
We were very impressed by the smooth booking arrangements and the advice given about options, taking into account our interest in birds as well as game. On this tour (our second) we went to Mikumi and HondoHondo. The accommodation in ensuite luxury tents was superb. Delicious food was locally sourced and the service friendly. We were really pleased to see local people employed and selling their produce to Wild Things. The Guides were all expert in the flora and fauna of the region spotting amazing animals, birds, wild flowers and answering questions expertly. Very impressesd by the whole team. Hope to return.

We had a very good time!
Thank you for a great safari! We had a very good time in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara National Park, were amazing! We liked Ali and Osman our driver and cook. They made the trip extra special. We will certainly recommend Northern Circuit Adventure to others!

We had an amazing time.
Emmanuel took us to places we didnt know how to reach, such as Lushoto a town located in the top of the mountains ,where we had the most extraordinary time, we walked around the waterfalls and met the local folks. Certainly a highlight in the trip to Africa.
We spend time in Tanga ,a colorful city with very nice people . Emmanuel is a good host . Thank you again.

The friendliest camp in Africa!
Zikomo Safari is on a beautiful stretch of the South Luangwa river in the Nsefu sector of the park. The chalets, campsite, restaurant (serving delicious food) and pool all have fantastic views over the floodplain and it's wildlife. The Nsefu sector sees much less traffic than South Luangwa proper, and has just as much wildlife. Seems the camp has everything going for it but for us the winning attribute was the friendliness. As self driving campers we are usually sidelined, but Zikomo welcomed us like part of their family. Nothing was too much of a bother for them and they went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience. I have visited 3 camps in the area - If I am in the area again there is absolutely no contest as to where I will choose to stay at - Zikomo!

Your recommendations were spot on
I wanted to send you a quick note of thanks for your help in planning a fantastic honeymoon. Your recommendations and information were spot-on.
Beho Beho and Baraza were fantastic. During our time at Beho Beho, we had the good fortune of meeting Sarah Bailey, wife of the late Christopher Bailey who originally developed the safari camp as a retreat for family and friends. She was full of stories and added immeasurably to the experience there, where it felt as if all guests were welcomed like family. The quality of the guiding at Beho Beho was excellent, and we enjoyed getting to know the guides and staff better by sharing stories during meals and relaxing in the common area over a game of snooker. We also enjoyed the variety of activities – from the walking safaris to numerous game drive destinations (Beho Beho River, Lake Manze, etc.) and the day trip to Lake Tagalala. We had the distinct pleasure of tracking and, ultimately, spotting a black rhino in the bush while on walking safari with Walter and Saning’o. Other guests had great things to say about their night out at “The Treehouse.” The staff at Baraza also went over and above to make sure that our time there was relaxing and enjoyable. In particular, the beach lunch was a wonderful treat. The experience at Baraza was a great taste of luxury after “roughing it” on safari.
Each location did a great job of trying to address Lynne’s dietary restrictions and was otherwise ready and willing to cater to pretty much any request, reasonable or otherwise.
Coastal Aviation is also to be recognized for their efforts. The flights ran smoothly, but what deserves additional comment is their help on ground transfers. Upon our arrival in Dar es Salaam, we were informed by the staff at the Royal Palm (now called the Serena) that they would be unable to accommodate us due to some government dignitaries who extended their stay. After dropping us off, the representative from Coastal checked back to make sure that check-in went smoothly. Seeing that there was a problem, the driver spoke with the front desk to ensure that alternative accommodations had been arranged and then transported us to the other hotel. Similarly, upon arrival back at Dar’s domestic airport from Zanzibar, the baggage attendant was quick to point out that he had called the shuttle bus driver for us so we didn’t resort to over-priced taxis for the transfer to the international airport.
In general, we were impressed with how seamlessly all of the transfers were handled, including those on Zanzibar. The drivers there took good care of us as well. One thing to note: Zanzibar airport requires paper tickets (or at least a copy of your itinerary) to move through security. The driver helped us get documentation from the Coastal Aviation office, but it might help to have copies of the confirmation from Coastal Aviation for travelers in the future.
All-in-all, Lynne and I came back from Tanzania with memories that will last a lifetime and have already begun thinking about our next safari holiday!

Excellent Tour
Throughout every step of the way, Kruger Flexi Tours made the experience enjoyable from the time I sent the first email until after our tour ended. The tour lived up to our expectations and Dave was a friendly guide. He did his utmost to make sure we saw all we wanted to see and more. I can recommend Kruger Flexi Tours without hesitation.
