The trip of your life
Our safari was amazing! We enjoyed every moment of it. Accommodations and food were pretty good and we could see lots of animals in their natural habitat. Rockie was a fantastic driver and guide and I have the honor of calling him Rafiki. I would totally recommend suricata for doing a safari

Brilliant safari
Had a fantastic experience from start to finish with Going Green Safari. The personalised package reflecting what we wanted to do was spot on. Great advice on which parks to go to and where to stay. Loved the combination of game drives, boat safari, walking safari and hiking was just right for us. We wanted to avoid the mass tourist route and still see Tanzania’s wildlife and stunning nature. Massive thanks to Alfonso our driver and Paschal our guide who looked after us so well, super knowledgeable and most of all lovely people to spend our adventure with. I would have no reservations in recommending this company to anyone- good value, good service, good communication and good fun. Thankyou - a trip to remember!

Amazing activities and romantic hotels!
I spent 11 amazing days in Namibia with my girlfriend doing incredible activities and stayed in very nice hotels with all the comforts one can ask for and amazing views. Each activity/hotel was organized by Nature Travel Namibia well in advance and for a fair price overall.
My contact person for NTN was Pepi Kern. She was very professional and helpful in tailoring our itinerary in Namibia according to our requests and informing us about cool activities to do once there.
My tour guide for the whole trip was David Mlambo. He was very knowledgeable about the nature and the history of Namibia. He was always keen and reliable at driving us to so many amazing places and picking us up from the activities we did - we really appreciated that.
I would definitely recommend exploring Namibia with NTN! :)

Very prompt response and clear communication.
Pendo from Tales of Tanzania has been very responsive since the start. All information was communicated clearly through email. Booking was easy and all the transaction were done without much issue.
Our guide, Naiman, was very helpful and the best we could ever ask for. He was kind and always gave his best effort to ensure we got to see all the animals, including the wildebeest migration.
Despite there was some miscommunication about the hot air balloon arrangement during our trip in Serengeti, Pendo and Naiman had given their best effort to manage and ensure we got to enjoy this amazing experience.
We definitely strongly recommend both Tales of Tanzania and our guide.

Absolutely Unforgettable Experience with Emmkamp Tour!
I had the pleasure of joining Emmkamp Tour for a 3-day adventure in Uganda, and it exceeded all my expectations. From the serene boat cruise at the source of the Nile to the heart-pounding thrills of bungee jumping and white water rafting in Jinja, every moment was unforgettable. The highlight was exploring the lush Mabira Forest, where we witnessed incredible wildlife and the tranquility of one of Uganda's last tropical rainforests. The entire trip was seamlessly organized, with every detail carefully planned, making it a truly memorable experience. For anyone seeking both adventure and natural beauty, Emmkamp Tour is an absolute must!

Wakanda Forever!!
Operator Name: Wakanda Safari Tours
Contact/Planner: Aishwarya
Guide: Basheer
Day Trip Guides: John and Ben
Tour: 6-Day Serengeti Migration tour including game drives in Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater, plus a day trip to Materuni Falls.
Overall Experience:
Our experience with Wakanda Safari Tours was nothing short of exceptional. We embarked on the 6-Day Serengeti Migration tour and were treated to unforgettable moments, including witnessing a thrilling river crossing with a crocodile hunt and the rare sighting of a Rhino. The variety of wildlife—from Elephants to Lions, Cheetahs, Leopards, Hippos, and countless exotic birds—left us in awe. The picturesque views of the migration, with thousands of zebras, wildebeests, impalas, gazelles, and topis, were truly breathtaking.
Accommodations:
They arranged for very comfortable stays, mostly in mid-luxury range sites where cozy beds, private hot showers in the morning and evening, comforting food, and great sunrise and sunset views were standards. Aishwarya meticulously prepared us for each stay, setting clear expectations about what to expect and ensuring every detail was taken care of.
Day Trip to Materuni Falls:
We also took a day trip to Materuni Falls, which was an amazing experience. The hike up to the falls was enjoyable and not too challenging, making it a pleasant experience for everyone. The views along the way were beautiful, and the falls themselves were well worth the effort. We enjoyed a lovely lunch prepared by the Chagga tribe, followed by a visit to a local coffee farm where we had a great time learning about traditional coffee-making processes. We ended the day with a dip in the Chemka Hot Springs. While the springs were refreshing, we expected the water to be warmer.
Special thanks to John and Ben, who made our day trip even more memorable. They went above and beyond by diligently coordinating the transfer of our luggage to a new hotel when our return was delayed, saving us a ton of time and energy late at night. This is yet another example of the exceptional team culture fostered at Wakanda Safari Tours.
Planner (Aishwarya):
Aishwarya understood our preferences perfectly and crafted a flawless itinerary. Despite being vegetarian, our dietary needs were impeccably catered to, even in the remote Serengeti where she arranged delicious spicy Indian meals. Her dedication was evident throughout the two months of planning, always available to address every detail, even beyond regular hours. Her proactive communication ensured a smooth and worry-free experience.
Guide (Basheer):
Basheer was an outstanding guide, combining deep knowledge with exceptional hospitality. His friendly demeanor and patience in explaining every detail enriched our safari experience. His sharp eyesight and expert driving skills ensured we always had the best wildlife sightings, navigating amidst other safari vehicles with tact and consideration. From coordinating with camp staff to packing lunches and setting up meals, Basheer's dedication and sincerity were exemplary. Watching him do what he does from dawn to dusk, I now have a newfound respect for all safari guides. He also extended his care to fellow guides and stranded vehicles, showcasing a true spirit of camaraderie.
Recommendation:
I wholeheartedly recommend Aishwarya, Basheer, John, and Ben of Wakanda Safari Tours to anyone seeking a top-tier safari and adventure experience. Their commitment to excellence and the supportive culture at Wakanda left a lasting impression. Wakanda Safari Tours has undoubtedly set a high standard in the industry. Wakanda forever!

Excellent
Incredible! Our Letaka mobile safari was extraordinary from the start.
First night, just as we had barely sat down to dinner in the bush, a pack of wild dogs raced through camp and killed an impala right in front of us. The wild dogs were followed by a hyena and a jackal. That was a spectacular start to a brilliant trip.
Our guide was excellent, on the morning and afternoon game drives, he tracked lions, leopards, hyenas and more wild dogs with amazing skill, we saw so much wildlife.
The mobile tented camps were in beautiful locations. The camp staff were great and cooked us lovely and varied vegetarian meals and were an awesome team.
Can't recommend the trip highly enough, this was our second safari with Letaka and it was just as good as the first. Thank you Letaka.
