Awesome experience, will definitely go back!
The entire safari experience was great. Our guide, Matthew, from African Safari Guru, picked us up in Johannesburg and made sure we had everything we needed (including helping us to get a local SIM card for our phones). During the transfer to Arathusa, Matthew provided tons of interesting information about the area, the people, the economy .. the country in general. After 3 days at Arathusa, Matthew picked us up and drove us to Lukimbi. He took us through Kruger National Park, took us to the top of a "koppie" to get a 360 degree view of the park, which was amazing. My husband finally understood what I meant when I said "the bush" ... After our stays at the lodges (6 nights total), Matthew drove us to Nelspruit airport where we caught a flight to Cape Town where we spent another week. The lodges (Arathusa and Lukimbi) were very different but both amazing in their own way. The food and service was excellent all around. I can't think of anything negative at all. It was a great experience and we plan to go back. African Safari Guru did not disappoint and we will use Matthew again.

Simply perfect.
Quite honestly, I was a little hesitant to book with Wito Africa because I had trouble finding online reviews, but I couldn’t be happier that I booked our family safari through them. We had the pleasure to have had our whole trip personalized just for our family of four by our travel agent, Abdullie. Our specialist was very flexible with our budget and needs. Planning this trip was effortless and fun! Abdullie came up with an amazing recommendation for our two-week dream vacation to Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Zanzibar. We were happy that the company gave us a full breakdown of what to expect each day from each place that we visited - they even sent us a nice little safari kit with information on tipping and list of things to pack for the trip! Truly it is the natural hospitality and all the personal touch that made our dream family vacation memorable! If anyone is thinking about going on an African safari or beach vacation in Tanzania, this company is the way to go!

perfect budget safari
Me and seven of friends had a great safari together with Kiliholidays. We went for seven days with two super drivers and one cook. We slept in tents with mastress and duvet. We visited the serengity, ngorongoro crater, tarangire, lake manyara, lake eyasi. It was wonderfull, beautiful landscapes, delicious meals, great explainations of the wildlife by the drivers. It was also very affordable. I recommand kiliholydays because they are lokking for perfection even at small price and they have succeded to make this week one of the best of our lives. Thanks Mack, Edward, Steven and Innocent.

Very Good experience
We were 4 adults for our trip in uganda. Our guide was Hannington. I really recomand this guide and the compagny crystal safaris. We had a nice stay in the gorilla safari lodge. The hike with the Gorillas was unique. We will keep very good memories if this trip.
Hannington was very polite, calm and I felt like he wanted us to have the best trip possible.
Thank you

Wonderful safari tour
I joined 4 days Massai Mara tour and Nairobi National Park safari.
In Massai Mara, I saw a lot of lions, a leopard, two cheetahs, three black rhinos and many other animals.
Allan is very kind and sends me email so quickly.
Driver guides know about animals very well.
I'd like to visit Kenya again!

Great safari trip!
We had a great time at our Safari trip arranged by Castro! We went for a 3-day tour in June and they did their best to make sure that we had a great time and got to see as many animals as possible. Our driver was Patric who were super nice to hang out with, and our chef (don’t remember his name) made the most AMAZING food. It was probably the best food we ate on our whole Tanzania trip.
The only negative thing was that we wasn’t informed to bring our own towels and toilet paper to the camp (we had a tent). So a checklist of what to bring before the safari tour would be nice.
Overall, you should definitely book your safari trip with Castro! We had a was great communication before arriving and he answered all the questions we had. Very reliable and kind.

An experience you have to go through at least once in your life
The overall experience was really incredible and I might do it again later on in life. If you're on a budget I would recommend going to Kenya between August and October, because of migrating season and going at least to Maasai Mara. We did a 7-day safari in 4 different national parks
in Kenya and have seen more than we could have ever expected to see. A lot of it is thanks to our driver Stanley who was really the best driver we could have ever wished for. The only real complaint I can think of is that there is rarely any hot water in camps with tents, other than that I think everything was organized really well for what we paid and I would do it all over again.
