Warm and personal; perfect match with with Tanzania
Whow, this was good! Not only in terms of the things you get to see, the atmosphere really was the best. Because of the personal and also "small" way Flash operates, you get the feeling you are their queen for the time you are visiting. Not by fancy accommodation parse, but mostly because of the way you are able to communicate and merge into their own way of living and friendships. Magda opens her network (both business and personal) for you to provide the best of the best. When planning must be adjusted, due to whatever circumstance, alternatives are presented and discussed; transparent and honest.
We will most definitely come back and really recommend Flash to anyone who wants to see and feel the real stuff!

Kenners met smaak en inlevingsvermogen
Een fantastische reis! Niet alleen qua samenstelling, de sfeer die je als extraatje mee krijgt was slagroom op de taart. Je wordt opgenomen in een familie van lokale gidsen, wat als thuiskomen voelt. Magda stelt haar netwerk voor je open om het beste van het beste te kunnen verzorgen en regelen. Daar waar de planning door welke omstandigheid ook, moet worden aangepast, worden alternatieven voorgelegd en besproken. Helder en eerlijk.
Tanzania heeft haar mooiste kant aan ons laten zien en met al veel landen in onze rugzak, is zij degene waar we zeker nog een keer terug zullen komen. De bemiddeling van Flash heeft daar een belangrijke bijdrage aan geleverd. TOP!

Just wanted to say thanks for all your help before and during our trip to Kenya. We had an amazing time during the entire trip. Thanks to the Tour Guide. He was awesome, great driver and experienced guide; we enjoyed his company and his knowledge. We would highly recommend your company to all of our friends when they come visit in Kenya. Thank you again!

Great trip to Maasai Mara
Flight & Safaris helped me book a weekend trip to the Maasai Mara, and I had a wonderfully relaxing weekend. The trip was very well organized and we were not short of activities to do during the weekend. I really ended up wishing I had taken a longer holiday. More frequently, Flight & Safaris handles my international flight bookings and I'm never disappointed. I would highly recommend!

Enjoyed the experience with similar minded, keen photographic group.
It was their first tour group to Namibia, their home environment is Kwazulu- Natal. I found that the team was caring, involved and energetic. Communication and service was good.

Brilliant safari experience
I've recently returned from a four day safari experience with Shadows of Africa Tours. From start to finish my group and I were treated to a flexible and enjoyable trek through Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorogoro Crater.
Our group opted to sample a range of accommodation options during the trip, but from the budget to the heights of luxury - it was clear that Shadows of Africa had carefully vetted all lodges & hotels to ensure they met quality standards. Every lodge had WiFi, pleasant facilities, and accommodating staff.
Our driver, Timo, was a font of knowledge when it came to the Serengeti. His keen eyes were a source of wonder for us - he was even able to spot a Serval Cat from a good 500m away! When he wasn't directing our attention to another beautiful animal in its natural habitat, he was quiet and allowed us to chatter away noisily in the back of the car. While Land Cruisers are far from limousines in terms of comfort, we had ample room for ourselves and our belongings, and were grateful for the vehicle once the roads really devolved.
Over the course of four days we saw the entirety of the 'Big Five' and almost every other animal we'd hoped to see, with only the cheetah eluding us. We got some stunning photos of bull elephants, lions, and even a leopard resting post-kill. I couldn't have been more pleased with the sheer variety of animals we encountered.
The pre-trip communication from Jake was great, and it was a real pleasure to get to know him and the rest of the Shadows of Africa team while we were whiling away time in Arusha after our safari. Special mention to the feast that was the packed lunch that Natasha provided for the first day of our trip. More food than I could eat!
The real charm of SoA comes in the fact that they're designing a tour specifically for your group. Even once the itinerary was set, we were free to request later or earlier starts as our mood desired. When Lake Manyara looked like it might not yield great results due to the weather, we were quickly and seamlessly shifted to Tarangire instead. You don't get this kind of flexibility in large group tours.
An experience I'd not only recommend to friends, but one I am likely to repeat someday in the future.
Absolutely amazing experience
When I started planning my trip Uganda, I emailed different safari operators to find out more about the options offered in their webpages. The answer I got from Emma Hill from Go2Africa was fast, complete and very useful. I asked for further information and I always got back very complete answers about all my questions in many many emails. Go2africa made a tailor made itinerary that fit all my needs and demands.
My communication with Go2Africa was by email and it was very efficient. It was very easy to make the payments, and everything during the trip happened as planned. The attention from the local travel operator was exceptional, our guide was absolutely professional. All the lodges where we stayed fulfilled our expectations and we have absolutely no complaint about the trip.

Serengeti is amazing
Serengeti was all I had expected and then some. The animals, including the Great Migration, and the birds were beautiful, accommodations were unique and comfortable, and even at the more heavily-populated visitor centers at the entrances there was no trash or papers/plastic around.

friendly knowledgeable and fun
We had a great time with Enos our guide. He was accommodating, extremely knowledgeable about Rwandan affairs, affable and one of the nicest people I've ever met. Olive was easy to work with and the whole trip was an amazing success. Would thoroughly recommend them - especially Enos.
