Great planning
Monika at Safari Source provided great information to plan our recent safari in Southern Africa -she had great ideas and worked hard to put together a seamless trip for us. Thank you!

I was well taken care of by this tour company from the game drives to the accomodations.
I was very impressed with the care and detail of my guide Sentongo Ananias Ggunga. His driving along so many challenging roads and going the extra mile on our game drives in Queen Elizabeth NP and Lake Mburo NP made my trip a great success.

Highly Recommend Jackpot!
This was our first safari experience and Yessin did a fantastic job. He was patient, paid attention to the animals we were hoping to see and kept in contact with other drivers to find out about any sightings. He was able to give us information on all animals we saw with basics and fun facts. He was fully prepared, flexible and catered to what worked for us. The whole process was easy and well done from reservation to dropping us off at the airport. Lodging was very comfortable, clean and we loved the buffet meals. It was nice to have a nice mix of familiar and local food choices. There was no lacking of food on our trip, the box lunch was more than enough. Wifi connection was OK, not the best and only in common areas. (Yes, I know, it's better to unplug!) All locals were super friendly and made an effort to speak to us in English because we couldn't get past "asante" and "jambo" in swahili. We will definitely call on Jackpot tours again.

Awesome safari experience!
Me and my wife did a 9 day safari in Kenya with KWSS; our first safari ever. Otieno is a very soft spoken, hardworking entrepreneur. He was the point of contact for all reservations and took care of us very well. He was responsive and answered all our questions. Before landing in Nairobi, we knew what to expect throughout the safari.
All our lodges were amazing, especially the Samburu lodge. Being vegetarians, we were skeptical about our meals but were surprised to learn how delicious our meals were. At several lodges, we were actually consulted by the chefs before preparing the meals.
Our driver/guide Nguta was very knowledgeable and since it was a private tour, he was very accommodative with our schedule.
Overall, I would say we had a once in a lifetime safari experience with KWSS. Thank you KWSS!

For the trip of a lifetime and attention to detail we wouldn't hesitate to book with Zambezi
Having found Zambezi Safari Company more than 10 years ago, we have travelled with them on many safari trips over the years. They have never let us down and their itineraries are always impeccably planned and highly detailed.
Of course wildlife is not at all predictable but they are always able to recommend the best places to visit, at the best times, to maximise your game viewing potential. The guides and safari companies they use within the countries are always of the best, using professional and knowledgeable people who make you feel at home.
The staff at Zambezi are really friendly and happy to listen to your own ideas as well as giving advice and together we have always come up with the perfect holiday for us.
We have travelled to Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Congo, South Africa, Botswana and Zimbabwe with them and are very much looking forward to our next adventure with them in 2015!

Tsavo/Amboseli Safaris & Mombasa/Nairobi/Malindi town tours & Lodging
Having been away from "home" for about 30 years, my daughter wanted her husband to see and share her child-hood experiences. She made an excellent choice with picking this company. Robert was honest and upfront. The tour-guide he picked was one in a million. Kind, knowledgeable and very committed to making the trip a memorable one. He seemed to know where to find all the wildlife and was an excellent driver, besides being very punctual. I would highly recommend this company for a safari of a lifetime!! I plan on going back with a group of friends next year!!

Great experience!
Thanks to Migunga Adventures Tours & Safari, our trip to Kilimanjaro and the safari tour afterwards were an unforgettable experience!
Upon our arrival, we were greeted very warmly by Sylvester Migunga and his team and enjoyed their personal assistance throughout the whole trip. Everything was perfectly organized and could not have worked out better.
We highly recommend the services of Migunga Advetures & Safaris and would certainly book our next adventure with Sylvester again!

Safari and co provided the perfect framework for an outstanding holiday.
As a woman travelling alone to Africa, I needed to know that the details of the trip were taken care of so I called Mike at Safari and Co and he came through with flying colours. My vacation to Zambia (Norman Carr Safaris) Botswana (Pangolin Photo Safaris) and Zimbabwe was a trip of a lifetime with not a hitch, not a problem and this I owe to Mike. Given his knowledge and contacts he was able to stitch together my itinerary using reputable guides and transportation companies. From the moment I landed in Lusaka to the sad moment I left Kasane on my way home, everything was seamless. Without a doubt, Mike will be handling the next trip to Africa....and the one after that.

Wow! Better than I could ever have imagined. Saw the Big 5 by our second ride out! AMAZING!!!
Dave took care of us from the minute we arrived. He is the host with the MOST! He made sure we knew where to eat and arranged a cab to get us there before our Safari even began. Marc was our guide:I never met anyone so passionate about his job! He kept in contact with the other drivers to update animal sightings. He taught us so much about all the animals and answered all our questions. What an adventure! Eating a delicious meal, prepared by Dave and Marc, beneath the African stars, like a dream!
If you want the best choose Flexi Tours!
Thanks again Dave and Marc!!

4-day Gorillas and Wildlife Tour
Everything about this trip was first class. We booked through Nelson who was extremely professional and timely in his communication. Our host for the trip was Bernard, and I don't have enough good things to say about him. The van was extremely comfortable and the budget accommodations they chose were surprisingly great. Bernard was extremely knowledgeable about the landscape, economics and politics of the country, as well as the wildlife we encountered. He made every effort to ensure we had a great trip, including several sudden stop requests for photos or chances to buy a cold pop. The actual safaris they planned were incredible. We were extremely pleased with our gorilla trekking, boat excursion and game drives. We saw schools of animals from lions to hippos to elephants to buffalos. I couldn't provide a higher recommendation for this tour group.
