Amazing 1st contact with Africa
From the start of my project to go to Africa (around Februray 2014) to returning from the trip my interface, Kathi, has been extremely helpful and proactive in offering advices and support.
She helped to recommend the best journey fitting with my budget, arranged all tiny details to make the trip go seamlessly. So once the trip started I only had to focus on the experience be it observing the wildlife in its natural environment at Chobe or Kruger, having a breath-taking experience at Victoria falls or experiencing the life in the city in Cape Town.

Close encounters with wild and very relaxed animals
If you want to see wildlife and get really close to elephants, buffaloes, lions, hippos, hyenas and several more species of mammals and birds - come to Tanzania! We visited Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro on our four day itinerary with a six person jeep and basic accomodation.
Our guide and driver Godlove was excellent, spotting and explaining a plethora of animals - most impressive for me was his ability to name ALL the many birds very precisely. Our cook Marley created new and tasty four course menues every day and managed to satisfy the wishes of the meat lovers in our group AND of us vegetarians.
It was merely amazing how close you can get to all the animals and how relaxedly most of them watch you back (apart from most of the birds and zebras who would always get a few metres inbetween them and us).
If you come from central Europe and are used to fixed treaties - you will maybe feel more satisfied with your trip if you let some expectations more loose.. We recommend to take a tour operator from Tanzania. We had one from Kenya with a bureau in Arusha. The reasons for booking that special tour were some promises that the bureau in Arusha was not wanting to hold: a visit to Olduvai Gorge was to be included (already paid), two nights in Serengeti were in the description, game drive in Ngorongoro should have lasted till the afternoon - none of this was happening. Adding to the disappointment was that the bureau in Arusha didn't pay for the Lake Manyara camping site through the weeks before we went so at the camp site they won't let us leave on the next morning until payment was assured - making up to a delay of two hours before we started the journey to Serengeti, when we had expected to start with an early morning game drive there. It took a few nerves and some e-mails untill we got a fair refund for the promises not held.
If you are relaxed about basic accomodation I really recommend you book a camping safari - it's so beautiful to wake up to footsteps outside (an elephant in our case) and "talking" hyenas (who will raid the dustbins). And you better get an excellent driver like Mr. Msemo who "rides" the dirt roads like nothing.
If you want to get in touch with your own wild nature - come to Tanzania!

We had an amazing experience on safari in Kenya that we will never forget.
We just finished an amazing five day safari that we booked through Wildlife Sun Safari's, and all we can say is WOW! James, the owner of the tour company was quick to answer each and every email and answer all questions that I had. He quoted us a decent price for a private tour which was much more reasonable than other quotes that I received.
Upon arrival at the airport James and our driver Toya where there to meet us and soon after we began our safari. Toya was knowledgeable about Kenya and proved to be an expert at spotting animals along the way. His English was good and he was always eager to accommodate us in any way necessary throughout the tour. We appreciated his good driving, even on wet roads and in heavy traffic. He was extremely patient even when roads were washed out along the way and he had to find an alternate route to get us to our destination.
The accommodations included in this tour were all first class and the food served at each one was delicious and presented beautifully.
We were thrilled at the amount of wildlife that we saw during our safari and the scenery in the parks was breathtaking. Even though we were here for rainy season, we managed to have good weather with little rain along the way. Our experience with Wildlife Sun Safari's was impressive and we would not hesitate to do another safari with them or recommend them to others. We are already thinking about returning for another safari in the near future since we enjoyed this one so much!
