Great experiences
When I made an inquery, I Always got a reply fast. Everything was arranged very well, drivers were in time every time, the excursions were great. By arriving we decided to do an extra activity what was arranged immediatly and also fitted in our program. There were 2 things I would give to the organisation. The first is that we, by arriving at the Livingstone room, were confronted that there was a dress code of which we didn't knew. That caused a awkward moment. I would suggest to mention this carefully to people who book this. We never take more than casual clothes with us on vacation. Second thing was that during the best game drive we had (the one one the Chobe River, what a great guide) was that the lunch was in an beautiful restaurant with great view, only the lunch itself was the worst we had during our whole stay. Just 2 small things, but just the difference between good and excellent.

Incredible experience that exceeded our expectations!!
This being my first time in Kenya and first safari, i had such an amazing and memorable time, which truly exceeded my expectations. Sylvester was so helpful in planning our trip and creating a customized tour because there were certain places i wanted to see. I have to thank him for being so accommodating in allowing us to postpone the trip by a week because i was really sick, which gave me enough time to recover so i could enjoy the trip. Our 8 day trip took us from mt kenya to masai maara with stops inbetween. The accommodations were all excellent and comfortable, and seem to get better as the trip went on. Nicholas was our driver/guide, who was friendly, helpful, and patient (especially since we were slow moving in the mornings) and whose knowledge and passion for what he does, definitely made the trip a great experience. He tried to make sure we didn't miss out on anything, and being my first safari, it was unbelievable that i was able to see the Big Five. Thank you for a well organized trip and even accommodating a last minute tour of Nairobi. I would definitely recommend Seven By Far Travel and look forward to using them the next time i'm in Kenya.

The beauty of South Africa was awe inspiring. Also received fascinating and eye opening glimpses int
We were impressed with how well our trip was organized in regards to flights, hotels and safari. The Portswood Hotel was lovely. Excellent service in the best part of town. The Safari was excellent. Again very well organized. We were a little bit taken back when we got to the Outlook Lodge in Joberg. There was no one who really took the lead on telling us how things worked. We had to ask questions about everything and they seemed irritated. In the end we got on fine but would have preferred an upscale hotel after three nights in the bush.

3 day safari in February
Me and my wife had an amazing time on this trip to kRuger national Park. We got to see a lot of animals including the big five it was such a fascinating trip and well worth the experience much greater than I expected the food that Ryan cooked for us was also excellent .my wife and I enjoyed every moment we got to see lions feasting on a buffalo A pack of wild dog giraffes elephants and even a leopard. The views were astonishing and Ryan was a excellent tour guide and he was very knowledgeable he explained to us the history and the nature of the wild animals . I definitely recommend to book with this tour operator to anyone that is interested in a safari!!

Review about Etosha National Park by Anna Wikman
Among the park's we visited, Etosha NP was by far the best. A lot of animals, long drives and many options of waterholes, many spots of the Etosha white goast Elephants and lion cubs.
An experience everyone should do!

For sand lovers <3
Driving from Windhoek to Sesriem entrance gate was one of the most liberating things I'v done in a long time. We rented a 4x4 Toyota Hilux in Windhoek, packed out things and drove into the wild. No guide, only our guide book.
First stop was Desert camp in Sossusvlei, just outside theNamib Naukluft National Park entrance . The camp has a gas station next door equipped with cold beer, ice cream, bbq stuff and outside the store by the camping tables a mist raining over you when you're eating your ice-cream. Big plus in the heat.
Gates open between 6.00-6.45am (depending on season), but be at the gate at least 15-20 min before. We came just 5 min before and had a whole caravan before us waiting at the gate.
The morning drive was just amazing, no pot holes, red dunes, a few oryxes running in the sun rise. We drove to the Sossusvlei area to do the morning desert drive, prepared to do it ourselves in out powerful 4x4. Arriving to the end of the tarmac road though we spotted the first 4x$ stuck in the sand, we quickly decided to take the park service. No doubt would it been fun to drive around in the sand, but the heat comes quickly and if you want to save time and energy, take the service.
Hiking in the sand is tough, bring water, sun screen and a hat. Arriving to Deadvlie we spotted a beautiful fashion shooting taking place, which says something about the scenery. If you are planning to hike up the Sossusvlei dune, do that in the early morning.
Solitaire is a great stop on the way, great coffee and apple cake and a lot of vintage cars having out in the back ground makes great scenery.

Had a great time on a we really well organised Safari
The details of the safari were communicated very clearly and informatively in the build up to the safari. We were met in Arusha by Mike who talked us through the fine details and was always around to help. Our guide and chef for the 3 days were excellent and a pleasure to spend time with. As for the safari, well I don't think you can have a bad experience visiting some of the best safari destinations in the world. Thoroughly recommend!

Massai Mara tour
John was very helpful and more than open to any questions regarding the tour. He also helped us purchase stuff since our bags did not arrive at the airport, The downside of our tour was that our car was completely full, while others seemed to be in a more comfortable position for watching the animals and take photos. This also proves that many people choose for ACZ too! Also, we went for the option of staying at a Masai village for a night, but it had an additional cost of $60 for two persons; this seems a bit steep for what you are getting in return. Sure it is interesting learning from these people and experiencing this way of life briefly.
