Experience of a lifetime
All aspects of our trip to Kenya were outstanding. We were well informed with lots of important information from what to expect to what to bring. Our accommodations were at a very high level and our tour guides were excellent. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Great, life time experience - words will fall short
Mr David the tour coordinator (Big Time Safaris) was of real help and was involved right from the planning, coordination and execution of the programme. The tour was a one time in a life experience for our group, we had an excellent guide and driver, never felt insecure. A warm reception at the Airport, comfortable drive, good accommodation for over night stay and to top it all we were guided personally by Mr David to the right place to buy the artifacts which we wanted as souvenirs. Great Trip. Trip to Masaimara was out of the world. Thanks to Big Time Safaris

Amazing company
I cannot recommend a better company for traveling around Uganda. From my first email to my transfer to Entebbe airport everything was perfect from recommendations to bookings. The staff is very helpful and has a knowledge of the area. I have used Encounter Safaris for my 3 trips to Uganda in 2014. I came in February, August and December and they all the experiences was perfect. From Kisoro and the gorillas to Kidepo on the extreme north of the country there is no better company to travel around Uganda. Tolbert Guma was my guide and driver most of the times and I cannot recommend a better person.

3 days Amboseli Safari
Dancom tours is a company that for sure will leave a mark for any trip you wish to have. Of the three safaris they have organised form me none has that has not passed the bar and would recommend them anytime
Serengeti National Park: Tanzania's gift to the world
The people of the planet owe a debt to Tanzania for preserving the Serengeti National Park, and other amazing parks in the country. These beautiful ancient places are a privilege to visit, and I feel my life was enriched immeasurably by being able to view the animals in their natural habitat. In addition, the landscape of the park itself is stunning. I would highly recommend a visit at any time and for any age of traveler. It is my greatest hope to be able to return sometime in my life.
great experience
I climbed Kilimanjaro with a friend in October 2014, followed by a week safari in the Serengheti, Tarangheti and Ngoro Ngoro; the Big Expeditions organization exceeded my expectations. During the climb they were very attentive, helpful and friendly. The food was good and plentiful, the guides very professional and informative. - special mention for chef and for Richard which took such a good care of me when I was ill with altitude.
The safari was great as well: plenty of game and the accommodation and trasportation very good and well organized.
I definitely reccommend BIG EXPEDITIONS for your adventures in Tanzania! Lisa

South Africa - A luxury trip
We asked Martin at Kingfisher to put together a trip for 4 of us travelling from Cape Town, along the garden route & to include a visit to a Game Reserve. We let Martin make suggestions based on his knowledge of the area & of us & did not need to make any changes to his suggested itinerary. Our booking was handled efficiently & we were kept advised of everything at all times. The choice of places to stay & the accommodation arranged for us was beyond my expectations. They were diverse enabling us to enjoy a lot of what the Cape & Garden route has to offer, & all accommodation was top quality. This is the 3rd time I have used Kingfisher Safaris for my travels to Africa & I would have no hesitation in using them again.

Superb planning - we have holidayed all over the world but never felt so 'looked after' before.
We had never travelled to South Africa before so wanted to experience a safari but also to visit other parts of the country. We picked Kingfisher Safaris as we would be dealing with people who had actually lived and worked there. Our experience was was extremely positive from beginning to end, with Martin's suggestions and planning producing a well balanced trip that not only appeared exciting, but in the event exceeded all our expectations. All our accommodation was first class and arrangements fell into place like clockwork.
We have holdayed allover the world but never felt so 'looked after' before, with Martin even contacting us during the trip to ensure all was going to plan.
We visited ancient forests, national parks, intriguing villages and beautiful coastline but the highlight must be the safari section. Superb facilities were matched by an absolutely excellent guide with an encyclopaedic knowledge of his subject. Game viewing was brilliant and even included a successful lion hunt - apparently seen by very few.
Would we recommend Kingfisher Safaris? Absolutely. The thought and planning that went into our trip surpassed anything we have previously encountered. There's no doubt that real local experience and knowledge pays off, and in our case resulted in the best trip we have ever taken

Way off the beaten track
This is a fantastic park to visit if you have already been to other, more popular, national parks in East /Southern Africa. It's not the kind of place where you will see a vast variety of animals (elephants being the main one here), though you will get to see a decent amount of different animals and birds, and not forgetting plenty of wonderful baobabs. What you will get, though, is the feeling that it's just you and your 4WD out in the vast wilderness, exploring somewhere truly remote. The roads are rough with lots of growth so that you often can't work out what is the road in front of you. But this just adds to the excitement.
The scenery is beautiful as well, so there are lots of upsides to this place.
