Going to Pilanesberg with Go Safari was really a pleasure
Dear Susan and Glen,
Thank you for organising an overnight stay trip to Pilanesberg National Park Bakubung Bush Lodge.
I was in good hands. Everything was really fine.
If I come back to SA I will contact you again to get things organised.
Remain as you are.
Kind regards,
Alexander

experience of a lifetime
What an amazing experience! From the start of the emails, Msangi (owner of Bright Safaris) was more than patient and helpful with the myriad of questions we had. It is an exclusive tour, just us, not other people. The lodging and staff at all the tent camps along the way were friendly and helpful. Bright Safaris takes care of everything from the moment you arrive at the airport to your return. All you have to do is enjoy the scenery and the 1000's of animals you will see. The guides have an incredible amount of knowlege, information and ability to see animals. We were blown away beyond expectation. You will be glad you chose this company.

Professional, personal and pleasurable experience
Our tour with Wild Dog Safaris lived up to our expectations; in fact it exceeded them. This was due, in part to our guides, Milton and Steven. They were always professional (even with difficult customers), organized, efficient, personable, fun and with their presence, changed the character of the group and the adventure from special to extra-special.

The whole trip was done in a very professional manner and the communication was very good. I will recommend Ecco Safari to anyone and will myself make use of the services again in the future.

Amazing experience, a life changing adventure that will not be forgotten easily!
The tour was well organised and felt that we were in safe hands at all times. The team was friendly, attentive and ready to serve. Thank you sincerely for the bush toilet and shower - what a relief !! We were fortunate to see so many wild animlas, except for the Leopards that eluded us, the bird life was phenominal not to mention the many bright, golden brown butterflies we saw :-)
The guides were very knowledgeable and ready to provide as much detail as was required. The highlight on the tour was the Mokoro, travelling down the river whilst absorbing the beautiful surroundings and becoming one with nature - unforgettable !! Thank you again for everything, hope to be back soon !!

Amazing family holiday in Southern Africa with Encompass!
Our family of 5 (2 adults and 3 girls aged 15, 13 and 8) enjoyed an incredible 2.5 weeks in Southern Africa (Botswana, Victoria Falls and Cape Town) thanks to Encompass Africa. From the moment we made contact with Jono and his team it was apparent that they were experts in their field and that they paid careful and thorough attention as to what type of holiday would suit us (given our short briefing as to the types of things we'd like to see and do) and how they would make that happen for us. Jono was always available to talk when required and was prompt to return calls and emails. His confident manner and first -hand knowledge meant that I was extremely comfortable relying on his advice as to what would suit our family best.
Our trip was fantastic and just right for us-it's hard to think of anything I would have done differently. Starting off with safaris in 3 camps in Botswana-Camp Kalahari, Kwando's Little Kwara and Kwando's Lebala, we followed on with a couple of days in Victoria Falls and several days in Cape Town. From the choice of camps and hotels to the number of days in each, to the order in which it was structured, everything was spot on. We received a glowing recommendation from a friend to use Encompass and we would not hesitate to give the same.
a well organised Tanzanian organisation, gives you a safe feeling
We travelled 3 times with Antilope Safari.Every time It was a nice experience, no mistakes in the (flexable) organisation. Communication on the planning of our tours was correct and quick. A very nice and well informed guide.

Walking in the wild!
This is my second visit to Africa on Foot and once again it could not have been a more wonderful experience. From the moment I contacted Natasha at Sun Safaris to the hugs all round from our game ranger, Enoch, as we said our farewells at Hoedspruit airport, the whole trip was a sheer delight. The main reason for going to Africa on Foot is to be able to walk in the bush and learn about the flora and fauna. Enoch is a superb guide and he brought us close to lion, elephant, rhino and buffalo. It was a thrilling! His knowledge of all aspects of the bush and the folklore of the peoples of the area is consummate and we came away with a wealth of knowledge and terrific memories.

Ticked off the bucket list
A Safari holiday was always on our bucket list. It was a great experience and we saw a lot of wildlife throughout the trip as well as the migration in the Serengeti which is unusual for this time of the year especially near Seronera and up to Nabi gate. Our driver Eric was a jolly fellow always in high spirits with the knowledge of an encyclopaedia. We have now returned home with some very nice memories and 3 hard drives of pics.

Personalised service and relaxed approach
This was my maiden African Safari and I didn't have a clue what I was signing up for. The pre-booking communications with Mr.Loth gave me the assurance I was in the hands of an experienced & a flexible tour operator. Not being a big tour company, they were able to customise and work on my individual requirements, primarily around Photography. I was briefed on the tour plan in advance and the same was printed off when we started at Arusha. Bryson my Driver-Guide was the actual hero throughout the safari. His keenness to explore places and friendly approach towards other tour drivers enabled me to experience African Wildlife at its best. He along with the cook Gryson, ensured I had a comfortable stay. Though the vehicle looks a bit tired, I was surprised with its performance on the dirt tracks and while ascending the Crater. Whatever your budget, Ilmaasai have the willingness to arrive at a workable solution that's guaranteed satisfaction. Try them to experience Africa.
