AWESOME EXPERIENCE WITH GREAT SAFARI ORGANIZERS.
This feedback is long overdue and well deserved, I had dreamed of this trip for more than 2 years and it did not disappoint! We contacted Gilmag Safaris online and their response was prompt. Our emails were answered back in a flash, we wondered if the staff of this company ever slept . This gave us the confidence to book with Gilmag Safaris.
The trip was excellent and our jeep was in good condition and looked well maintained, our guide Nicholas was phenomenal. Besides his excellent driving skills, he was passionately talking about the parks, the animals and always looking for the best spots to see as many as possible.
The entire trip, we stayed at Serena Hotels in Arusha, Manyara, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Zanzibar.
The food and services exceeded our high expectations.
We also learnt that a percentage of Gilmag profits is channelled to assisting the less fortunate families.
If you are looking for a truly exciting trip to Tanzania, we recommend that you consider going with Gilmag Safaris. We loved their service and will definitely come back again.

Excellent service
Maggie from Bison Safaris provided excellent customer service: readily available, responsive, accommodating and kind. Our driver and guide was wonderful also. So while the budget options all seemed quite similar (we all pretty much go to the same places and even share vans, etc, which is absolutely fine), for me these two aspects of the experience were paramount and a great value add. I would not hesitate to recommend Bison Safaris. A big thank you to Maggie and her team.

Very good organisation and experience, recommended for both those traveling with family and friends
We enjoyed the 9day Safari tour, from the pick up to the drop. Everything ran smoothly, with Stanley being our guide who is really expert in his sector. He’s friendly and a good company for the entire tour. Landscapes and The experience speak for themselves, from the gorilla trekking to the experience in several national parks such as Murchison falls and Queen Elizabeth, it was amazing and moving to see animals in their natural habitat. All the lodges chosen were amazing with really few tourists which made the overall experience even better and unique. The only thing we didn’t like was that 2 lodges out of 6 we booked was unexpectedly booked out, yet we knew this the day of the staying only and we weren’t given the opportunity to choose another ones, which were chosen by the agency instead. While one of these two was maybe even better than the chosen one, the second was not that good instead. This is the only reason we give 4 stars out of 5, but still an excellent tour, experience and people within the agency, really recommended for people of all ages.

Great time and Adventurous trip
Starvel Safaris helped us have the most amazing Kenyan safari experience! Starting from the pickup at the airport all the way to helping out with excess luggage and making sure that we had a fantastic time, Esther and her team were with us from start to finish. David, our guide, was very experienced and told us a great deal about all the animals that we saw in Amboseli, Naivasha, Nakuru and of course Maasai Mara.
We were put up at great places either within or a short distance away from the gates of each national park that we visited. Every little bit of our catering needs were taken care of and everyone we met was friendly and helpful. David is a machine! He drove for 6 hours straight and then with just a short gap made sure that we went on a game drive. He was funny, kind and considerate and it was an excellent experience overall for all of us. Highly recommended.

Excellent & Reliable
Our group of 16 people was scheduled to go to Kenya in March, 2020 which got cancelled due to the travel restrictions in place due to the Covid 19 pandemic. Our booking was a very complex one with people coming from multiple destinations on separate dates to meet up in Nairobi before heading to Olare Mara. The team at Chalo Africa never said no to any of our requests and many changes we requested during the course of the booking. They made sure everything was covered. And i knew they were good because i had gone on a trip to Tanzania which was planned by them in 2016.
I am sure there are a few other operators who can provide such service. But the way they kept in touch after the cancellation and worked out various options for us to either get a refund or credit is a statement of their character in such tough times and is truly commendable. My family and friends will definitely make this trip and Chalo Africa will be our agency of choice to plan the trip.
I would like to thank the all star team of Sangeeta, Smita and Malavika for everything and would like to wish them all the best.
Best Wishes
