Memories for life
Went to SA in 2014, through goxplore who works with jewel of Africa safari, and I can't describe the great service we received and the unforgettable moments they took us on! We had a guide tour with Neil in Kruger national park and we had so much fun during the safari but also at the wild life bush experience at the lodge we stayed at :-) definitely something I would like to do again!

A dream came true!
The experience was much better than we expected. Safarihub was from we started planning very easy to discuss with, and help us build the perfect itinerary. Safarihub was flexible and made us feel safe around our choices.
Said(i) was the driver guide. He was easy to like, and we had a lot of fun, and good conversations. He seemed to know all the people we met, and the animals too.
The only thing that was less than expected was the car. But it would not have made anything better with our safari, if the car was never.

Dunas Safari we very helpful with the car rental
When I was organizing a self-drive trip in Namibia, I was struggling to find a car rental company that would rent automatic drive cars for people under 21 years old. I messaged Dunas Safari asking if they rented or knew a company that would rent a car for someone who was under 21. They got back to me within a day and gave me a list of car options. They also suggested what type of car I should go for (2X4 or 4X4) when I told them where I planned to be driving. I communicated with the Domingos Ferros entirely over email and was able to book a car for the trip.
At the airport, Domingos and one of his co-workers waited for me and my friends at the airport arrival gate. They were both very friendly. It was nice to have the same representative who I had been emailing the whole time. One thing I loved about renting the car through Dunas Safari was that the company provided us with a GPS, internet plug in, and mobile phone for the trip!
Dunas Safari rented the car through Dollar Thrifty. At the start of the trip, I had been driving behind Domingo's and his co-worker car when I got stopped at the the Windhoek city boarder check. The authorities wanted to inbound my car because the car Dollar Thrifty gave me had outdated paperwork. Had I rented directly from dollar thrifty I would have had to figure out a solution. Domingos and his co-worker took care of the issue so that I did not have to stress at all. Despite the fact that it was holiday and that offices were closed, the two of them were able to get temporary paperwork issued for the car so that the car would not be stuck at the check point.

Review about Solio Ranch by NSStone
Beautiful! Lots of rhinos, beautiful views, scenery can change quite a bit with views of Mt Kenya. Baboons, monkeys, lions, Impala, vultures, etc...

Review about Samburu National Reserve by NSStone
It was incredibly hot and dry when I visited, but what I saw made up for the weather. We spotted a leopard in tree and saw its mother bring back a kill. I stayed a Elephant Bedroom camp - simply stunning accommodation, great views and the odd elephant wandering through camp. Listening to lions at night right by camp was awesome.

Review about Aberdare National Park by NSStone
A beautiful area but harder to spot some wildlife as the jungle is dense

Amazing abundance of animals, including both black and white rhinos, to see in Ol Pejeta Conservancy
Kenya had had quite a bit of unseasonal rain when I visited Kenya so I was lucky enough to experience Ol Pejeta without a lot of dust flying around. The area was quite green and lush with stunning views of Mt Kenya. Great open vistas with the mountain as a backdrop. I expected/hoped to see a few rhinos but did not imagine to see the vast numbers of both black and white rhinos that we did see. Of course I would love to see that there are far more in numbers surviving... We saw rhinos bathing in mud, plenty of babies. Lots and lots of zebra put on a show and didn't run from the vehicle. A fantastic pride of lions with various aged Cubs, giraffes, Impala, jackals, warthog, etc... I stayed at Rhino Watch and cannot recommend it highly enough - beautiful gardens, views, accommodation, food and people! I travelled with a group of fellow photographers with Chris Bray Safaris. Their knowledge and experience amazed me. I could not have asked for anything more from our brilliant driver guides, Musa and John. Visiting Kenya has been a highlight of my life and I will definitely be going back.

Review about Kenya by NSStone
I went for the wildlife and birds and that's what I saw! Such amazing colours in the bird life. The landscape is beautiful and changes so much - from dry and dusty, to rainforests and lakes..
