Memorable experience
My girlfriend and I found Backpackers Safaris friendly and very congenial. Our tour guide Anthony and the cooker Ben were very instructive and helpful. The hotels were clean, comfortable and served hot breakfast within our limited budget. We had seen what we expected to see in Africa. We will certainly recommend this tour to our friends.(:

Sunny greeting from Africa!
This has been a wonderful journey you have compiled for us. The Rivertrees was great - the Tloma Lodge even greater! Actually you shouldn't just travel through, it's too good for this! Such a luxury, a wideness and so friendly people... and the coffee was awesome!
And the Next Paradise excels everything we have ever witnissed... You can really recommend that!

The Gorilla trek was out of this world
I was looking for a tour operator to help me go to Uganda to see the amazing gorillas. My experience with Kenya Walking Survivors Safaris was amazing. Transport were arrangements were top notch and the guides the were very friendly.

Adventure!
Peter is an incredible guide. Loves people, wont let you down. He has had so much experience. He is from the tribe of the masai, so he fully understood how the game works.
We went on a 3 day trip in December and saw everyone we wanted to see except for the Rhino (which was not seen by any of the tour guides that trip). Incredible place.I recommend Peter or the Experience anymore than I have!
Thank you.

A very enjoyable challenging experience of life that cannot be forgotten
Excellent and prompt online communication for booking our tour. Very good arrangements and services made by tour leader and tour guide, both of them know their job very well. The tour of Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti were beyond our expectations. It was really marvelous.

Amazing experiences for a short trip!
East Africa Wild Adventures coordinated our Safari as part of a visit to Kenya for a wedding. We only had 4 days to spend before making our way to the final destination and were on a budget. They helped make sure we saw a tremendous amount in that time. We visited Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Masai Mara. Each offered their own varied experience of wildlife and surroundings. Our tour operators were friendly, knowledgeable, and always on time. The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and well maintained. East Africa Wild was great to work with. They gave us a number of options and helped determine what was best for our group. That really set the experience apart.

Cape Town/Victoria Falls/Zambezi Queen/Kirkman's Kamp
My daughter's Bucket List had one item, ride an elephant in Africa. I contacted my local travel agent and she, along with Dave from Great Safaris, put a trip of a lifetime together for us. Our guide, Adriaan, in Cape Town made our days memorable with historical information and yet fun for a twenty-something and her Mom. Tickets were purchased in advance so there was no waiting for Table Mountain or Robben Island. Each and every transfer was seamless and every driver professional and cordial. I felt as if I stepped back in time at the Victoria Falls Hotel where the service was exquisite. We had an amazing afternoon with the elephants, trainers, and staff and even made friends with Sylvester, the resident cheetah. The Zambezi Queen was above my expectations and although we saw a larger variety of wildlife at Kirkman's Kamp the opportunity to watch the elephants play in the Chobe River for literally hours was a highlight for us. This is evident by the sheer number of elephant pictures we took! We felt a bit underdressed at dinner but no one paid us any mind and the food was fabulous. Finally Kirkman's was the perfect end to our two week travels. We saw so many animals and birds on our twice daily drives. The ranger and tracker we had were incredibly knowledgeable and so personable with everyone. Cynthia, our 'butler', was a real hit with my daughter and was part of the surprise birthday party we had for my daughter celebrating her early 26th. To be honest, I cannot think of any staff member we encountered that was not courteous and friendly. The confirmation documents from Dave were always accurate and I especially appreciated the Field Guide and Journal that I used daily highlighting what we had seen, referring to it with the ranger, and keeping my daily notes. Dave even contacted me while we were in Victoria Falls to see how things were going. My daughter and I discussed the order of the places we visited and honestly beginning at Cape Town and engaging in the history first was best, then living out the dream of riding an elephant followed by the floating on the Chobe watching elephants and hippos and relaxing, and ending with the Big 5 and early morning drives at Kirkmans was the perfect sequence for us. I highly recommend Great Safaris, Dave, and his cadre of knowledge when booking your amazing African adventure. Congrats to Dave and his team!

Everything about the trip was high quality and great fun. From amazing wildlife to awesome food and comfortable accommodations, the safari was great. My thanks to Brian and his crew for one of the very best experiences I can imagine.
