Savannah Woods is easy to work with and responds quickly and completely
Savannah Woods has been great right from the start. We did a 1 night 2 day safari to Amboseli National Park. Lucy, the organizer has been very communicative and quick to answer. She gave us several options of hotels of varying price ranges, for this tour . The information she sent in her proposal was very detailed and complete.
Our driver Anthony arrived on the dot at the time specified. He was great, sharing lots of information. We did 2 game drives and saw amazing things including a pride of lions eating a buffalo. Anthony has a wealth of knowledge to share. He was unhurried and went the extra mile in every way. I give him 5 stars. Thanks Savannah Woods.

Incredible safari experience
We have booked a 6-days budget safari with Jocky Tours and everything was beyond our expectations. Absolutely great value for the budget price.
We have spent the first two nights at the Sankale Mara Camp outside of Maasai Mara. The tent was spacious for two, we had our own bathroom with hot water and also a mosquito net around each bed. Food was fine as well. We have spent the third night in a nice hotel in Nakuru town, which had a pool and even a rooftop bar. The last two nights we were accomodated in the Manjaro Tented Camp very close to the Kimana Gate of the Amboseli National Park, which was excellent. We have received an entire modern house to stay, Henry and his entire team was so welcoming and took a really good care of us. I will never forget those delicious fresh mangos!
Our jeep was a 4x4 Toyota Land Cruiser with 9 seats and pop-up roof, very comfortable for the safari and even for the big distances (in 6 days we drove cca. 1000 km-s). Bottled water was provided during the entire trip.
We were lucky to have two driver guides during our safari, both Kikitu and James were just amazing. Main features: well organisation, punctuality, safety, knowlegde and of course fun. They both know a lot about the african animals and were always ready to answer all our questions. Most of the time we could drive very close to the animals and could admire their beauty and make fantastic shots. For the final two days we remained just the two of us in the jeep and enjoyed a private safari - we just felt so lucky. To be able to watch the sunrise at Mount Kilimanjaro was awesome. We are just so grateful to Kikitu and James, who made our stay in Kenya unforgettable. Asante sana, guys!
The only negative thing to mention is the fact, that the jeep was not fueled before the trip, so we have spent a half an hour at the petrol station, as oil and the air at the tires had to be fixed as well. There is always space for improvement :-)

Best Safari businesses of Tanzania
The safari organised by Serengetti Smiles has exceeded my expectations. Communication with Erick via WhatsApp from the beginning has been fluid, looking for the best route for the requested dates. They adapted to the changes we had to make due to changes in the airline's flights. The price has been super competitive, one of the best I found, but with the same park and hotel services as other companies, even more. I paid for a reservation a month in advance by transfer and the rest was allowed to be paid upon arrival. That gives you great peace of mind when spending so much money with a company that is not even from your country. They wait for you at the airport at any time, ours was at dawn, and from there they accompany you and manage everything until they take you to the airport on the day and time of your flight. They are very reliable and the value for money is amazing. Special mention and eternal gratitude to our guide Champion, who has made this trip the best possible trip and has made a dream come true. Champion is kind, pleasant, fun, decisive and knows the parks in an incredible way. He drives carefully and skillfully, both on the highway and on the difficult roads in the parks. He is attentive to everything you need and does not stop until you see as many animals and landscapes as possible. I cannot thank him enough for how safe and happy he has made us feel, in a wonderful country, but in a new environment for most travelers. With Champion you will have the best trip of your life. I will recommend this company to all my family and friends and to have Champion as a guide.

Very friendly and professional staff gave us an outstanding experience
We have had the very best service from Peaks & Safaris from our first contact til the adventure was over. We where picked up at Nairobi Int Airport and from that moment we had full attention for the next 6 days. The driver Harison was very polite and caretaking, also he had good knowledge on the safari-tour and was good at finding animals of all kind. We where 4 persons who had booked everything for us privately and that was very good and gave us value for the money. The accomodations was also very good and the food was excellent.
We can absolutely recomend Peaks & Safaris as an organicer of your Safari

Super knowledgable, friendly and efficient company
Just returned from our 2nd safari trip once again organised by Tammy at Pembury Tours. This was a complicated itinerary, visiting Zimbabwe, Zambia and Sabi Sands, which ran perfectly due to Tammy's excellent knowledge, planning and organisation. As soon as we arrived in Johannesburg, we felt we were safely in her hands. All the lodges she recommended were great and the transfers ran like clockwork. Amazing viewings everywhere, we couldn't have asked for more. Tammy is always available should a client need her, both before and during the trip and we would highly recommend her services.

Absolutely incredible!! Planning our next trip with them soon!
I just arrived from my first trip to Kenya a couple of weeks ago. I have traveled plenty all around the world, have done safaris before, and work in travel so it is really difficult to surprise me at this point. However, I want to congratulate Helen and Nico on what they have created here, because the level of care, dedication and absolute devotion they put in their work and their customers is truly rare to see.
From the first moment I spoke with Helen all the way until we arrived, she has been thoughtful, has listened to what we wanted and what our priorities are. Our group included a person with celiac disease and our 80 year old grandma, so we had to be careful with certain things. She made sure our necessities were covered from minute zero, and also made sure we had the best possible guides I could fathom for this trip. We saw EVERYTHING we wanted to see, had the most insanely comfortable 4x4 (really, we couldn’t believe our eyes on what other people were travelling on while safariing), and got upgraded on accommodation categories not only once but twice!
She kept and eye on us and got in touch from time to time to make sure everything was going smoothly. Every request or change of plans we had was received with open arms, and our guides would go out of their way to be helpful and make sure we were enjoying ourselves.
I still can’t believe how the trip we have made could have cost what it has. I spent weeks trying to find the most cost-competitive agency, and I can certainly say, after some days to think about it, that this is probably the best value for money I have ever paid on any trip. Safaris are really expensive, but AA has managed to put a luxury trip on a budget, which is absolutely insane. I can guarantee I will travel again with them (hopefully next year for Tanzania!!).

The best Safari Experience
I recently returned from an incredible 3-day adventure with Deluxe Vacations Uganda, exploring the breathtaking Queen Elizabeth National Park. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of amazing! I really recommend Deluxe Vacations for their great Service but most especially the Surprises!
I will surely come back again and Choose the Same guide Emma.

I would travel with them again in the future. Good value and I felt comfortable.
