Wild Africa planned an excellent trip for us, responding promptly to all questions and changes.
The planning takes time and lots of email exchanges, but communication was always prompt and helpful. The whole trip, over 18 days, and visiting Victoria Falls, four wildlife camps and touring the Garden Route went without a hitch. The people involved throughout were always on time, very friendly and always available to help in any way. We saw an amazing number and variety of animals and birds, and consider this to have been the best trip we've ever done.

Wonderful day at Amboseli National Park
I booked a day trip to Amboseli from Nairobi and I had a fantastic day. I saw all of things I wanted to. My guide Joseph was so knowledgeable and lovely. He knew so much about the ecosystem, animals, birds and even plants

Friendly, professional, patient and superb.
We began planning a year ahead of our trip and Heidi with Pembury tours was truly exceptional. She helped us plan what we wanted to see (and even things we didn't even know we wanted to see). She helped flex the trip to fit our plans as well as our budget. The trip went off without a hitch and it was our smoothest international trip ever. The transports were on time and we felt pampered on the whole trip. We also felt safe from start to finish. Midway into our trip, Heidi even sent me a PDF with our South African Airways boarding passes, so I could print them off at the hotel which really made the airport experience much less stressful. We have traveled extensively all over the world both on our own and with tour groups and Heidi and Pembury Tours was outstanding (the best). We can recommend them without reservations.

Awesome Pilanesburg Full-Day Safari
My friends and I did the Sunrise Safari at Pilanesberg with Mmilo Tours. Our safari started super early in the morning where our driver Willem promptly picked us up from our hotel in Johannesburg. Willem was fantastic! He was knowledgable and provided great communication throughout our tour. He did his best to get as close up as he could to as many animals as he could. We saw 3 of the big 5 as the cats were not out during our safari, but seeing all of the other animals was just as great. We got so many nice photos and video. It was well worth it and I really enjoyed my overall experience. I would highly recommend this to others. Also, Mmilo Tours provided great communication before and after the safari. We had no issues throughout the entire process.

Amazing safari experience! Kenya and Tanzania - 9 days.
Me and my friend choose 9 day Kenya and Tanzania budget Safari tour with Baboon Budget Safari in June (2019). We choose Baboon Budget Safari based on our own web searching. We were looking for a budget safari and other than the price, deciding factor was Dennis. Denis’s super-fast responses and detailed information to our questions, helped us in deciding to go with Baboon Budget Safari.
From the time Bonfears picked us from Nairobi airport until we were dropped off at the airport after the safari, everything was superbly organized and our time was well managed and spent throughout our stay. Our overall experience was beyond our expectation. With very friendly and professional nature of all we encountered in Kenya and Tanzania, we felt at very ease and comfortable during our stay in both Kenya and Tanzania. Special thanks to Bonfears in this regard!
Added bonus for us was the migration just started in Masai Mara with animals in abundance and as far as we can see. Experience in Masai Mara in Kenya was a unique one with variety of animals with some of rare views thanks to Amnbrose who took us for game viewing in Kenya. He was always on listening on radio for interesting situations and rushing to provide us with the best possible viewing. Thank you, Ambrose!
Based on the web reviews, we expected some challenges in Tanzania but may be thanks to our perfectly aligned stars it was a smooth sailing. Silvia who coordinated in Tanzania side was always in contact with us ensuring all our needs are met and had perfectly coordinated the trip from the start to the end.
We had unique experience in Serengeti, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Cater with the beautiful scenic view and unique game viewing experience that will be with us for years to come. Thet were very different and we recommend all three. Deo who took us for game viewing in Tanzania was extremely professional and friendly and our sincere thanks to Deo.
Our experience was not limited to game viewing and it was a learning experience to know the culture of Kenya and Tanzania and its amazingly friendly people. We will certainly go again and until that time thanks to all who made us the trip so amazingly worthwhile.

Safari for father and son
I booked a 12 days trip with Skywide, communication was great, everything was crystal clear and the itinerary was followed strictly so we had now surprises during the course of the trip.
Safaris were great, our driver was friendly and respectful, he made his best to show us the big fives and he had a very good knowledge about the area.
Absolutely recommendable.
