Wonderful trip
Kiliholidays gave us a wonderful trip. Staff is nice and thoughtful, trip was well planned. Accommodation in Hippos Camp and Swiss-Tan lodge was great and food was good. Good choice of parks. I highly recommend Kiliholidays.

Fantastic, well-organised experience.
My wife and I went on a 7-night safari with Amani Afrika to Tarangire/Serengeti/Ngorogoro national parks. The hotels that were booked were all great and the trip was well organised. Our guide was fantastic - we were among a group of about 5 land cruisers watching a pride of lions. After about one hour, the other cars all left. We asked out guide if we should leave too, and he said "no - these lions are definitely going to bring down that buffalo". Sure enough, they did, and it was amazing to see a hunt. Definitely a highlight of our trip. The only hitch was the car breaking down on the second day. They dealt with this really well, however; they dropped us off at the nearest Serena lodge where we had a buffet lunch with a view whilst waiting for the car to be fixed. The issue turned out to be dirty fuel that had been sold to them by a petrol station that was apparently a bit shady. At the time this was a bit annoying, but over the next few days we saw at least 20 vehicles all broken down around the national parks, so I guess this problem isn't so uncommon.

Awesome private safari - highly recommendable!!!
We (four adults) did a 5-day safari with Charles (Safari Porini) in December 2014 and had the best time ever. We spent one day in Moshi to relax and recover from the overnight flight before heading off on safari. In Moshi we met with Charles and Anuary, our personal chef on this tour, to discuss the plan for the next days as well as meal and dietary requirements. Then we spent ½ day in Tarangire National Park, ½ day in Ngorogoro Crater and 2 days in Serengeti National Park. Charles was a fantastic guide. He has a great knowledge of his country and the animals. His animal spotting skills are just amazing. Furthermore, and quite important is that he a fantastic driver which means a lot in Tanzania. Especially as we have seen other tour companies which were speeding quite a lot on the dirt roads to and from Serengeti. Our chef prepared delicious meals and guide and chef were flexible with meal times. Heading off to the parks at sunrise and having a picnic breakfast there – no problem at all. Charles did the planning and booking of our whole trip including domestic flights and a week on Zanzibar after the Safari. We found him extremely friendly and professional. Also not to forget, we learnt quite a bit Swahili.
Charles, thanks a lot for this great adventure. We enjoyed every part of it.

Terrible!
It was terrbile experience. I missed my flight from Nairobii to Kilimanjaro. I was trying to contact anybody from AfriGalaxy on hotlines (and sms and e-mail), but nobody answered (other turist did not have any problems with their companies). There was no contact with the company, only few days later they... asked me where I am. I paid a deposit, but they did not want to return it. Do not travel with AfriGalaxy!

An amazing, enjoyable and informative trip.
This was a definite highlight of our holiday in South Africa. We hadn't been sure what to expect from a camping safari but were swayed by the excellent reviews of Pilanesberg Safaris &tours, so decided to go ahead and book. We were so glad we did - Ryan looked after us so well and did everything he could to help us to get sightings of a whole range of animals and birds - he never tired of sharing his knowledge, nor of making sure we were fed and watered. The experience was just as described on the web site, and although we were a bit worried about not being able to secure our booking with a deposit this was totally unnecessary as Ryan met us exactly as arranged. We came away with lots of photos and happy memories.

Very efficient and responsible
Terminal tours was a good choice for an African safari. The tour organisers were quick to arrange the tour in short notice. The driver was a nice guy who also gave good information on the way about the geography such as rift valley and also was expert to take us to right spots for the animals to be seen closely and also explained a bit about them. The food was served well on our way to masai mara and as well as at the camp. It was good to meet many friendly people even though I made a solo trip. Overall the safari was up to my expectations and am driven to book with them in future for a bigger safari.

Fantastic 5-day safari to Tarangire and Serengeti
Thanks Selma and Ngomi for organizing a perfect trip and Tuma, the guide/driver, for great company and a professional performance! We saw literally hundreds of elephants in Tarangire, we didn't know so many could fit in one 360deg field of view! Game viewing in Serengeti was excellent, with several prides of lion, cheetah, hyaena and even a close encounter with a leopard. Also all the other animals - gazillions of gnu of course, grazing from horizon to horizon on the green plains, topi (a new sight for us), dik dik and many others, birds such as ground hornbills, the colorful buffalo weaver, a secretary bird, kori bustards, various birds of prey, and others we still need to identify from photos. Tuma got excited with us over a busy dung beetle, and was always happy to stop for anything that tickled our fancy. I even got (painlessly) sucked on by a tsetse, also a novel experience (!?!) The accommodation was excellent. A booking glitch at one lodge was instantly resolved by Selma (while over-seas herself). The best thing about Makasa? The two delightful and professional owners.
