Above and beyond customer satisfaction, highly recommend. You can never go wrong with them.
My son and myself had traveled back home from abroad and was looking to do couple of safaris.
We ended up choosing twinkle star tours, little did we know it will be an experience of a life time. James the director, was charming and affable. I Love how you can turn even the most simple situation into something fun.” . He came out efficiently, broad minded and artistic. Better than a triple-scoop ice cream cone…with sprinkles.” Nakuru being our place of choice, we wanted to do a whole day tour at lake Nakuru. He made all the necessary arrangements. The whole time keeping intouch.
Micheal our driver/tour guide was remarkable. This dude was Amiable and knowledgeable of all kinds of animals, and where to look for them. From morning till evening he kept us entertained. We could not have asked for anything better.
Thank-you James for making our time at Lake Nakuru, memorable and Amazing. We appreciate you. Will sure come back for more. Next time we visit. Cheers.

Unforgettable experience thanks to Meru Slopes
We are a couple and booked a 6-day private camping safari with two nights Serengeti, 1 night Ngorongoro, 1 night Tarangire and 1 night Lake Manyara. We had such adventurous, interesting and wonderful 6 days. Of course, a big part play the national parks with their beautiful landscape and all the wild animals living in them. However, what made our journey exceptional and why I am also so glad that we chose Meru Slopes as a tour operater were our guide Robert and chef Buga. They both made it their mission that we have a great time.
We loved that Robert chose rather lonely paths and calmly spotted animals there instead of chasing other jeeps (of which there can be a lot in Central Serengeti). Also, we really realized how much fun he had on the safari and that he really is a friend of the animals - which is always nice to see that the guide enjoys the wildlife too. Robert called the Serengeti his „second home“, and we really realized that. He knew every street and navigated perfectly (which is not obvious!), furthermore he drove very well making us feel always very safe even though we saw a lot of accidents and breakdowns during our journey. When there was a small problem with the car, he quickly repaired it by himself. Also, when we had questions about specific animals or whatever - he gave answers like Google would. When he was overwhelmed by a question of ours, he was not too proud to take out his „African wildlife“ book and search for the specific information - not just saying something vague like other guides would. And - as it can be supposed - his English was superb, in some discussions even better than ours. As a surplus, he was super funny!
Buga, our great chef, always ensured that we have a delicious hot meal for dinner as well as lunch (a lot of other companies do not offer this). Compared to other adventures like this where you have to be afraid of diarrhea, with Buga, you can even eat the raw stuff like salads or whatever - which was great. He even spoke English and was always in a good mood, which lifted us up even early in the morning.
In conclusion, we had an amazing time on this safari and would recommend it to anyone! Thank you !

Our tour operator was very knowledgeable, answered all questions and left nothing unturned.
This was a trip of a lifetime! We had such a remarkable time each day, each adventure, each meal, each safari, each sight seeing tour we took.
We were busy from the rising of day, until dusk most days. Oh, the shopping was an adventure all of its own:) It was breath taking.. We are planning to return.

We enjoyed a perfectly planned, wonderful tour with perfect guide, leader and driver!
We have little time to spend on holiday, so our expectations were high. Alltogether we are extremily content with what we got from that tour. Our guides were polite, reliable and flexible. We enjoyed their company during the hole time. On our Safaritour in Uganda and RUanda we saw all the wild animals we hoped to see, even lions, jaguars, crocodiles, rhinos, girafes, elefants... The communication was in english and we got plenty of explanations about animals, people, religion, countryside and whatever we wanted to know. The lodges are picked well, great service, good food and inidvidual extras always possible. Our dirver had a neverending power and an enormous flexibility if needed. The value for money was fair, you would never ever get anything like this for the same money in germany. So, we are happy, content and recoment travelling with All In Anfrica Safaris very much!

Exceeded expectations
Our South African adventure was way better than we expected it to be. Johannesburg is amazing and our tour guide James helped us navigate what we wanted to see and showed us how the locals enjoy their city as well. Our guide Bill took us everywhere and shared stories about each amazing destination. There were stops on the tour that were simply incredible and really showed us how diverse South Africa is. The Humala and Tshukudu game lodges were beautiful and very clean. The food is very good and they offer food for everyone's tastes. The game drives were more than we expected and we saw everything. Winter is a great time to visit because the animals are easier to see. Our guides and hotel team were like family and were equally excited for us for seeing so many species. Special thanks to Blessing at Humala Lodge and Shaddy at Tshukudu Lodge. Wonderful. We finished our trip in Cape Town where Jonathan, our guide, was simply amazing. He was knowledgeable, fun and made our tour of Cape Town so memorable. We cannot wait to return. Go Touch Down Tours did a great job helping us have the adventure of a lifetime worry free. We saw everything including the Big Five, we visited Kruger National Park and so, so much more. Excellent vacation for sure.

Red Africa Safaris delivered on everything they promised and gave us a once in a lifetime experience
Red Africa Safaris, and our guide Jaco, delivered on their promise of a trip of lifetime. Having never been to South Africa or on a safari, we were unsure what we were doing or how to make our dreams a reality. Red Africa Safaris took care of everything and put together an experience that was truly awesome. They took care of all the details and delivered on all of them, meaning we were able to relax and enjoy the magic of a safari in Kruger National Park. We couldn't have been happier with this stress free experience that kept delivering the 'wow' factor we were hoping for. The detail and planning that Red Africa put into our trip was outstanding, but what really made our safari the trip of a lifetime was our guide, Jaco. We spend 4 days with Jaco and he was unfailingly kind, fascinating, knowledgeable, reliable and easygoing. He took such good care of us and was deeply invested in making sure we had a fantastic time while also helping us to appreciate and understand what we were encountering. Could not recommend Red Africa Safaris highly enough or express our profound thanks to Jaco for bringing Kruger National Park alive for us. 5 Stars.

Very nice!
We were a group of 3 friends who climbed the Kilimanjaro with the Lemosho-Route in 6 days (normally 7 days) and did a 2-day safari afterwards. From the point of interest to the actual engagement, every worry and question was taken care of by Mangokili Adventures. The organization worked out super well. We had 2 great guides, 11 great porters for the Kilimanjaro-hike and 1 great guide for the safari. Especially good for trips with a budget. We paid in total about 2.400 USD.
Super content.

One of the best Tanzania safari tour
We had a wonderful experience with the Dodo group safari. We had booked a safari for a week. They did all the arrangements from food to stay and location and exceeded our expectation.. This was one of our best vacations ever..
1. They helped us in planning our whole itinerary based on our budget and made sure what to expect and the communications and service started before the trip.
2. We are vegetarians and met our food expectations. We had multiple choices for food and they ensured meals were prepared as per our requirement.
3.The accommodation tented camps are so misleading.. never expected such luxury amidst forest..
4. We had an awesome guide who educated us a lot and made sure we were able to spot most of the animals and endless birds.. If not for him we would have spotted just the elephants ,giraffes, gazelles and zebra…He had a rich source of local information and he’s become our friend
5. Their service was totally hassle free and our change in plans was also well accommodated.
6. Will definitely recommend their service for anyone and it’s a fair assessment
7. Will be back again after few years for the climb and will blindly pick them for our climb too.
Thank you Dodo group for Providing us with one of the best experience

Organized and professional
If it wasn't exciting enough to be going on a Safari in the Serengeti, we had an incredible tour operator to make it more special. Paul in the office was very organized and perfect guiding us step by step through the reservation process. Albert was an exceptional guide that traveled with us from resort to camp to lodge to tent and everywhere in between. We could NOT have had a more knowledgeable guide! Albert has a degree in animal behavior and was a wealth of information on the oddities and peculiarity of each habitat, herd, pride and species interaction behaviors. We learned many interesting facts about each species along with mating rituals and predatory protocols. This adventure was a bucket list fulfilled with the BIG 5 (Lion, Black Rhino, Leopard, Lion, Elephant, Water Buffalo) and Super 7 (Big 5 plus Cheetah and Jackal) all in one trip. We were close enough to giraffe, elephant, zebra and wildebeest to look right in their eyes as they walked within inches of our Jeep. We saw the mating ritual literally in front of our eyes of a male and female lion. We were very near 3 cheetahs resting under a tree, giraffe were fighting from dominance, warthogs are hilarious, hyena are demonic looking, hippos smell awful and crocodiles were typically nearby. Water buffalo, jackal, leopard in treetops, baboon blocking the pathway, black rhino under the trees and many incredible birds. The greatest part of it all, these gorgeous, majestic animals were in their natural habitat, running free and living a protected life!!! HIGHLY recommend this exceptional trip!! Roadside Expeditions will take care of your details with fabulous accommodations, food and staff. Request Albert as your guide!!
