Recommended tour operator
It all felt very professional and organized. We lost a flight connection and they rescheduled our tour promptly. Our guide Isaac was always motivated, respectful and with amazing eyes. Many times he brought us to places to see fantastic scenes and we were the first to arrive. He would wait sine minutes before letting other drivers know about it by radio :) It was suberb!

Great Safari with good driver/guide and c his helper
I had a safari in april. And my experinces with this Company are great.
They met me at the hotel before the safari, and we had a great time together,
The safari was excellent. We saw the big five and a lot of other animals.
The guide/driver showed a lot of knowledge and gave us all a good safari.
The cooker made very good food.
If/when I will have another safari with my daugther and grandchildren I will defently use this copany.
It was nothing to coplain about. I was 100% satisfied.
Your sincerely

general overview
Botswana is one of the last wilderness on earth and I have visited the country on four different occasions in the last five years. I always used the services of Adventure Safaris to organise the itineraries which they carried out in a very professional manner. My trips have ranged from luxury lodges in the Okavango with transfers by plane to a self drive safari covering Chobe, Savuti, Linyanti, Moremi, Nxai Pan and the Kalahari. In all instances the trips were very well organised and properly booked. What I like about the company is the combination of a thorough knowledge of the country and personal service. The owner, Mrs Carla du Plessis, has lived in Botswana for over 25 years and gets personally involved with every client. You can always call her for a question or a specific additional service. It makes you feel like you have a friend in the country that you can rely on.

Budget, but yet complete!
Kenya Budget Safaris (Esther) was extremely attentive and helpful. She responded to my enquiries swiftly. She assured me that she’s monitoring every step of my trip. Kenya Budget Safaris work with experienced drivers/ guides. Patrick has been leading safari trips for 10 years. He knows all of the corners of the park. He brought us to these amazing wild animals; he made sure that we got the best view while respecting the wilderness. What makes it even more memorable is that he let the stories of these animals unearth not only through his recollection but also by letting us witness the scene that unfolded in front of our eyes. It takes great intuition to stop the car so that we could see animals playing, fighting, hunting, and even paying respect to the dead.

3 Spectacular Weeks of Adventure
Wow! I just wrapped up nearly 3 weeks of unbelievable adventures in Uganda all meticulously and expertly planned by Speke Uganda Holidays. My safari covered nearly every corner of Uganda and everything in between. What I truly appreciated about the team at Speke was that they were keenly interested in what I wanted to see and what adventures would be of interest to me. The planners at Speke frequently consulted with me as they were designing my safari to make sure they were in-line with my expectations. Not only did they meet my expectations, but they exceeded them. My safari was a clearly not a "canned, off the shelf" safari and that it was designed to my likes and ambitions. My driver/guide, Michael, was very courteous, informative, knowledgeable, punctual and easy to converse with. What a gentleman he is. All of the accommodations throughout my stay were perfect and each one was unique in its own way. The memories created on this safari will never fade from my mind and I genuinely look forward to the day I return. Uganda has so much to offer and yet few people know about it.

Wild and Beautiful
The Serengeti is one of the most famous National Parks in the world. The savanna is beautiful and truly special and is the home to a rich wildlife population. You can spend days and days travelling inside the park and you will always see something different and unique. The wildlife is healthy and offers excellent opportunity for videographers and photographers to capture great images.
Ngorongoro Crater is a microcosm of African Wildlife in all its beauty and wonder.
I have visited Ngorongoro Crater twice in my life - thirty years ago in 1985 and then again in 2014. It was beyond my expectations both times, although this past year I took a big long lens and had the time of my life photographing all the magnificent wildlife. It was beyond spectacular with lions stalking zebra, cheetah at the rim, a rhino in the distance, Elephants blocking our path. Our guides - Cheeseman Ecological Safari could not have been more accommodating. I came home with thousands of photographs and self published a book entitled "Tanzania". I would go back to Ngorongoro Crater in a minute.

Review about Tanzania by Patricia Bates
Tanzania is a beautiful country and actually fairly easy to travel for the first time tourist. The people are very helpful and there is so much to see. The national parks are truly magnificent places both in beauty and wilderness. It's a paradise for photographers. Can't wait to come back again!
