If you are planning a safari, The Luxury Safari Company is unbeatable. You'd be mad not to use them!
We have just returned from Safari in Tanzania and were lucky enough to have had The Luxury Safari Company recommended to us. I cannot rate them highly enough. From our very first contact I knew there was something different about them and the care that you get, the attention to detail, combined with their exceptional knowledge of Africa is what sets them apart from the rest. They also really understood us and what would work for us, so the trip was tailored perfectly to meet our needs. All arrangements were made efficiently and all communication was brilliant. The accommodation was top notch all the way and everything about this holiday exceeded our expectations from start to finish. Our private guide was brilliant and it was quickly apparent that he was one of the best in the Serengeti. Our safari experience was thus further enhanced by having a guide who got us to see everything, up very close, and was so knowledgeable that we learned a huge amount about the geography, the climate, and the people and culture of Tanzania as well as about the birds and mammals. It has been awesome. We are already thinking about "where next?" and I wouldn't even consider using anyone other than The Luxury Safari Co. A HUGE thank you to the team for a life-changing holiday.

Pleasant stay at Chogela Camp-Ruaha NP
We visited Ruaha NP and stayed at Chogela Camp. It is a nicely setted tented camp with camp fire in the evening and very delicious dinner. The tour was guided by a very enthusiastic nice tanzanian who gave a lot of information to the park and the anaimals, so it was an interesting day throughout. Also all other poeple in the camp were very pleasant
Several but very minor details prevent me from giving 5 stars (Tent not closing properly, no light in the toilet or shower, sparse toilet paper, well, can live with it and prepare myself). I would definetely go go and stay there again, the next time we will visit.

Awesome Tour from VIVA Safari, Bad customer Service from Booking agency
The tour ist just great. Awesome staff at the Camps, good Guides, lots of animals. 5*! You can book it from a Lot of booking agencies.
What was really bad is the fact that we were not informed about our late Pickup. The driver was there around 11 instead of 8.30/9. We could not reach anyone at the booking Agency, the south african representative told us that he did not work there anymore.

Makasa fantastic
We had a fantastic safari including visits to the locals and Masai tribe. Everything was perfectly arranged. We had some beautiful domestic flights over the Serengeti and we saw the Big 5 in just the first 2 days. Everything was very well taken care of. Thank you Makasa for a journey that was very beautiful to us. It was one BIG adventure.

Review about Kenya by Ray
It has everything from the greatest concentration of animals, to incredible scenery with a lot of variety. It also geared for tourism, which makes it that be easier to get around.

Beautiful scenery, great wildlife viewing, and really caring & personalized attention from the crew.
Our trip was spectacular, thanks to our amazing guides and caring bush camp team. We saw amazing wildlife, made new friends, and learned a lot about the Bush in Botswana!

Naenda was here for us
I went to Tanzania with my friend (up to Moshi) with the wish of climbing the Kilimanjaro. We are students so we needed to find something affordable. We went to "naenda agency" (a fake agency) and they offered us to climb de Kilimanjaro in 3 days and for 400$/person. We agreed. Once we arrived at the gate, we found out that this agency took us completely for idiots and that they just stoled money from us. Actually, we had to pay more then 300$ more for services, fees... We were just remaining with a few tanzanian shilling in the pocket. The guide wasn't friendly at all and he had no respect, we didn't feel safe at all. Actually it's a very long story. But at the end, once we went back from the Kili, we wanted to speak to the responsible from Naenda agency to get our money back. With a lot of hazard, we spoked with the real naenda people and we understood that the agency with who we went on the Kili was pretending to be the real "naenda safari". Shortly, this agency was pretending to be Naenda safari. So everything was false, the papers, insurance... Once we met the real staff member of Naenda, they helped us with everything. They came to pick us up near the gate of the kili, and brought us back to Moshi. We went together at the police station to complain. And they helped us financially so that we can take a bus to go back at the border of Rwanda.
I really want to thank them for everything and I wish them all the best.
Johanna.
