The experience of a lifetime.
I was in Tanzania from September 23 to 29 for safaris with our French speaking guide Imani Shoo.
It was a fabulous voyage. The food was very good, all the lodges absolutely confortables and magnificients. From the Laiboni camp, sleeping with the Masai to the beautiful Sopa Lodges, they were so different but all were unique! The last three days in Serengeti were just paradise. The Kati Kati Tented camp is just unbelievable!! The Tanzanians are so nice, we were treated like queens! All the National Parks were no less than nature at its best. The nature is so beautiful without human in it...
Finally, let me tell you that Imani was for a great part of success in this voyage. He speaks very good French, he has answers to every questions, he knows all the animal's names and behaviour, he did everything he could to please us and everything he could in order for us to see the animals at their best. But last but not least, he is very nice, very patient, very professional, very tactful for women that we are!!! I would certainly go back to Tanzania for another safari with Imani and if I ever know someone who plans to do a safari in Tanzania, I would refer Imani as the perfect guide for an unforgettable voyage in Africa!
Every step of the trip was well organized by East African Voyage, for our first night in Tanzania, our reservation was not booked for the Planet Lodge as it was supposed to, but our guide solved the problem and we were re-located to another Lodge near by, little less nice but still fine. All the safaris were very well planed and we saw «The Big Five». Even this flight in this little plane from Serengeti to Arusha was exciting!
Thanks to East African Voyage and its chief Julie Veillette
Was a great way to truly experience the Okavango.
Our guide Benjamin was awesome. Lovely personality, always answered our questions and tried hard to make the experience all we wished for. For me, there was a bit too much driving. I would have liked to have spent more time at a water stop and waited for stuff to happen there. There were not many animals around, I am not blaming anyone, and the endless driving looking for something was a bit too much. But we are birders, so I guess this would not be every ones choice. Otherwise the service by staff was excellent in every way. The food was really good and we enjoyed ourselves.

Great experience and a wonderful 9 Days Kenya Safari !
I and my 2 friends had booked a 9 Days Kenya trip with Tropical Vacations starting with a night in Nairobi on arrival, then to
Masai Mara game reserve, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasaha , Amboseli National Park and finally drop off a at
Watamu.The tour was well organized. Our flight landed at 8 p.m. and Mathew and the driver met us with a car as agreed for a transfer to our hotel in Nairobi.
The car was a mini-van. It is quite decent, the seats are comfortable and there were no major breaks. Wilson could use the maximum the car can provide! :))
and we must say everything was excellent from planning to execution....first of all, our emails were responded to in time,
with all the answers we sought and at some point we had to change our initial itinerary..but it still worked out perfectly.
The Guide Wilson was a nice professional who was keen to show us around and drove carefully...he was also punctual on time
...the accommodation options we chose were booked and were perfect, staying in lodges, (Amboseli Sopa Lodge was nice, but a little far from the park!)
We were lucky to see most of the wildlife, with at least 4 of the Big 5 and to sum it up, Mount Kilimanjaro!
We were generally happy with the services and would for sure use this company again...also recommend to our friends....

Great Tour!
Went to Kenya with my wife for our honeymoon after our wedding in Beijing and had an awesome time. My wife always wanted to travel and see Africa especially the animals and when our safari tour stopped and we actually got to see giraffes up close we knew we were making memories that would last a lifetime. My friend recommended Kenya Bush Excursions from when he went and they delivered.

Great experience, flexible and helpful team
I had a chance to book my Maasai Mara safari via the Lilac Adventures team. Entire team was very flexible and helpful while organising this on a very short notice. It was unforgettable experience to see Masai Mara park and all the wild life.

Awesome Safari
Thanks to Peter for putting together a memorable safari. We contacted several companies and only Gosheni Adventures was responsive and made an effort to keep within our budget. Accommodation was top notch and our days were filled with up close experiences with the Big Five plus many more. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to our family or friends. We will be back to repeat the experience.

Trip of a lifetime
I booked my tour with Kiah. My trip exceeded my expectations. The price was fair, the lodges AMAZING, transportation timely...the trip was flawless with zero unexpected problems or delays. I spent 8 days on safari on the Eastern Cape at three lodges, all unique. My first lodge was River Bend Lodge. The guide there was knowledgeable about all species including birds and there were many. The best experience there was the elephants. The food there was gourmet and the service outstanding. My second lodge Kariega River Lodge had a traditional feel. The guide there went out of his way to please. The food was good. The setting beautiful. My favorite of the three was Pumba River Lodge. It was a "designer" lodge with an amazing room, unbeatable. However the main reason this was my favorite was the abundance of game....I saw all of the Big 5 and more. It was also a beautiful setting. I would like to commend Kiah for a flawless and wonderful trip. She went out of her way to meet my specific needs.

Nature's Wonderland Safaris is an excellent safari company - it will meet your expectations, and mor
Our safari with Nature's Wonderland Safaris was, right from the beginning, full of adventure and surprises - all of which were outstanding. The safari was well-organized, and well-designed for our needs. It ran very smoothly. Joseph Mwangi, our Excellent Guide and Excellent Birder, sent us an itinerary outlining what we should expect to see, and where we would be staying. We travelled to a number of different areas of Kenya, all of which proved to be good wildlife viewing sites. The food and accommodations were very good, the leadership and expertise of our guide, Joseph, and our driver, John, were excellent. I highly recommend taking a safari with Nature's Wonderland Safaris.
Serengeti, manyara and Pemba
Thank you to Rose for organising a fantastic safari and beach itinerary for us especially I ally as we got started late and many places were booked out. She helped secure some great spots and built it around our needs. We absolutely loved Serengeti Lamai and Fundu Lagoon at Pemba was so a treat, beach, jungle and luxury all in one. Rose help us prepare for the trip and all the transfers and plans worked perfectly.
