Outstanding guide (Mananjara Enock), organized a once in a lifetime tour foe us
5/5

We (2 couples i) had the luck to find Mr. Mananjara Enock (via the Internet after reading former positive reviews) .
At the planning phase, he helped up "fine-tune" our special (18 days!) tour in Madagascar per our specific preferences, while keeping the cost attractive.
Since he met us at the airport, till dropping us there 18 days later Enock took care of ALL our needs (replacing hotels, assistance with food, demonstrating various Chameleons and lemors) and even helping me downhill after I've fainted (not his fault..).
Enock also arranged a professional driver who drove us safely during all these long days.

As said, thus has been once in lifetime tour for us.
With great pleasure I (on behalf of my wife too) HIGHLY RECOMMEND Mr. Mananjara Enock and his company - Soul Of Madagascar.

Don’t look any further than Spirit of Kenya
5/5

I booked with Spirit of Kenya (SOK), as their reviews were exemplary and I wanted our safari to be an unforgettable experience. It soon became evident that I had done the right thing.
From my early contact with Tiago, I was helped through the whole planning process. Nothing seemed too much trouble and my questions were answered quickly.
We decided on the “Big Kenya” 9 day safari, in order to maximise our experience and were certainly glad we did.
I arranged a further 6 night stay in Mombasa afterwards and Tiago was able to assist with taxi transfers. We could have booked this through SOK too but I prefer to plan my holidays independently, if/when I can.
On the first morning of our safari we were met promptly at our hotel by our driver/guide Shuma. You could immediately tell that we had booked with the right company as he presented professional in safari attire and the Logo’d Toyota Landcruiser was certainly the perfect vehicle for what lay ahead.

We had a good start when we asked Shuma whether we could make a quick stop to grab some breakfast to go and find an ATM to withdraw some cash for tips etc. He was willing to do this. This willingness was a theme that continued throughout our safari.
We found the “Big Kenya” safari, that we had booked, to be perfect for our requirements. All the safari parks were different and gave us different experiences of landscapes, wildlife and accommodation.
Our first night in Tsavo West was at the Severin park lodge. This was to be an unforgettable one as we retired to the sounds of Hyenas and were captivated by Impala and Giraffes walking past our (Glamping) tent.
The food served at our accommodations varied between a la carte menus and buffets, all of which were of very good standard.
At Tsavo West we were fortunate to see a leopard at close quarters, who was feasting on a zebra carcass.

Amboseli was probably my favourite park due to the variety of wildlife, particularly in the marshes. Hippos, elephants, giraffes, zebra, buffalo, wildebeest etc grazing in perfect harmony.
Our boat trip in Lake Navaisha was another highlight, especially with the diversity of birds that we were able to see.

Finally, at the Masai Mara, we were fortunate to see a pride of lions that had just killed a buffalo and calf. Shuma was able to skilfully manoeuvre our vehicle into a position that maximised our view and photo opportunities.

All in all our SOK safari was an unforgettable experience that will stay with us forever.
Thank you.

Bongani is an amazing tour operator
5/5

I visited South Africa as the guest of a professor who was leading a study abroad course. As part of the trip we spent several days in and around Kruger Park with Bongani as our guide and tour operator. It was definitely one of the highlights of the trip. Bongani is an incredible guide. He knows the park inside and out, knows the patterns of behavior of the wildlife, and is incredibly good at spotting animals that you would never notice on your own. He is also incredibly kind. On our trip he went out of his way to make the experience fun and memorable for everyone. You truly can't go wrong with Bongani as your guide.
