Amazing
I loved the days we spent at Kruger Park and Buffalo Camp Rock. The safaris were amazing. We managed to see the big five in just 2 days. The accommodations were excellent and the food was delicious.

An amazingly well organized Safari operator.
We (a group of seven people) booked our safari via Amazing Tanzania.
From start to end everything went as smooth as smooth can be.
All communication was done in a very easy and personal way.
Clear answers to our questions, correct information and in the end everything turned out to be well above our expectations.
Great lodges, a wondful tented camp, with great staff and excellent food.
We felt like the cast of "Out of Africa"

Attention to detail and service was impeccable! Don't think twice, Encompass Africa are FANTASTIC!
Andrew and I just wanted to sincerely thank Encompass Africa (EA) for coordinating an amazing and great fun holiday adventure to Africa.
This was a 50th birthday surprise for my husband Andrew - however as the excitement grew within me after booking the perfect itinerary, I couldn't help but tell him that he was going to Africa. He was stoked! Especially when he was to learn that we were going to one of his bucket list places, the Okavango Delta!
Working with Danica, Laura and the team, it took us 7 x attempts to finalise the itinerary - mainly due to the many options available and for me to try and determine along the way what would be our must-see's and must-do's. I am so grateful for their patience and guidance to ensure that we settled on an itinerary that fitted exactly our taste, interests and budget.
I am fast to admit I am a control freak when it comes to planning our travels. After finalising our itinerary, I spent countless hours on the internet trolling through YouTube videos and travel forum reviews about the places and lodges we were to visit. To some degree I felt I had already traveled the entire trip many times before we left – so I anticipated to not be surprised during the trip (unlike Andrew who was not involved in the planning) – but wow, how wrong I was!
How naive I was to not consider the wondrous and ever changing surprises mother nature can dish out at any given stage! Not to mention that EA and the lodges each had delivered us little surprises along the way to ensure we felt like we were more than just a number in their books.
We were greeted by EA tour representatives at every stop and guided through airport processes with great ease. We were super impressed at how much attention to detail was put into the entire coordination of our trip. Truly, the trip was faultless from beginning to end – and for us, that has to be a FIRST!
I cannot highly enough recommend Encompass Africa to anyone planning a holiday to Africa. EA made our trip not only personal, but extremely stress free as newcomers to Africa.

A unique and wonderful experience
Everything about my visit to Cape Town and Kapama Southern Camp was amazing. As a solo female traveller in my 70s I was warned to “be careful” but at no time did I feel anything other than welcome and safe. Sevin my guide at Kapama Southern Camp was spectacularly accurate in finding and tracking the game and has a wonderful understanding and empathy with his surroundings. The trip of a lifetime which I would recommend to anyone

Photo safari in Ngorongoro
After driving on the track, we reach overhanging the crater. It is about 20 kilometers in diameter, roughly the size of Paris and 610 meters deep. This crater millions of years is surrounded by walls of several hundred meters high.
Several springs flow along the sides to form Lake Magadi. One can find a yellow acacia forest (Lerai forest) where we can find elephants.
This crater is home to over 55 species, there are buffalo, wildebeest, gazelles, rhinos (very shy and difficult to observe), there are also lions, cheetahs, porcupines, etc.
The Maasai are allowed to come to graze their cattle, which is surreal, given the presence of cats.
An exceptional number of wildebeest (over 1 million) through this area during the annual migration and calves in the plains of Ngorongoro.
A natural phenomenon of a truly exceptional beauty.
To preserve this wonderful Garden of Eden, it is forbidden to build.
If you do a safari in Tanzania, the Ngonrongoro plan is a must.
The camera equipment used during my stay was two reflex enclosures, each equipped with a 70-200mm and a 100-400mm.
The guide who accompanied us had a piercing gaze , seeing the beasts hidden in the tall grass , or the rhinoceros safe.
The people are very welcoming , parks and reserves are all very clean.
The food is always very good and generously served.
Wherever we were , we found that the cleanliness was perfect and always professional and welcoming.

Best safari ever, great experience!
Kanuth was very patient and still friendly although we had some really bad luck. From getting picked up to being dropped off we felt totally safe. The food was amazing: Best pancakes we ever ate!!! The safari was so great - we saw lots of animals even though it is rainy season. Our guides tried everything to catch the lions. The park was full of giraffes and impalas. We saw elephants, hippos, Zebras, gnus, monkeys, lots of birds, crocodiles, waterbucks, pumbas and many more. Everything was good organized and the people very friendly at Hippo Camp. The communication was easy via email, phone and WhatsApp. It was surprising for us how much trust the people had into us and we could trust them. We would recommend kanuthsafaris and the Hippo Camp to everyone who wants to experience great 3 days of safari in Selous!
