Fantastic Service & Safari Experience
A group of us required round-trip transportation from Johannesburg to Kruger National Park (about a 7 hour trip each way) and the vehicle was very comfortable for the 5 of us. Glen was extremely prompt, friendly, and offered a lot of information about the region during the drive. During the 40+ minute journey to and from our lodging within the park, Glen spotted many animals and shared a wealth of information about the animals and vegetation.
When I return to South Africa, I will absolutely use Go Safari again and continue to recommend Go Safari to colleagues as well. Thanks Glen!!!

Fantastic day safari
We went on a day safari to Pilanesberg with Glen and what a fantastic day we had.
From the minute Glen picked us up at the hotel the day was filled with information. Everything went like clockwork and Glen even managed to find us somewhere to stroke two cheetahs-what a treat that was!
All in all a great experience, I can’t wait for the next one.
Thanks Glen.

Best experience!
My experience through Go Safari was amazing! Glen and Susan were very knowledgeable and were able to book us on a well-organized, interesting and overall fun guided safari drive! We saw a lot of animals and the park guide was excellent. I wouldn't book through anyone else!!
Short visit, but big on fun!
I was in Joburg on business and only had a day to see some of the beautiful countryside. Thanks for organising such an efficient and enjoyable day trip to Pilanesberg, it was excellent to get a taste of some of the amazing natural beauty South Africa has to offer.
Next trip will be longer for sure!

Go Safari
I highly recommend anyone who has a busy holiday schedule in South Africa take the GO Safari one day trip. Glen is a very knowledgeable and patient man who will go the extra mile to ensure you enjoy every expect of the game park.
He is also a great historian who will tell you almost everything you need and want to know about South Africa's geological history.
Lastly, He is well connected with the other Big One (the Diamond) in South Africa where you will finish the whole South Africa journey with a big smile!!!
Glen, thanks for the great experience.
Cheers

A memorable trip of a lifetime, with arrangements made seamless by Go Safari
We had the best time - thank you again for making the arrangements, and to you and Susan for all of the help with getting
The tents were lovely & such a unique experience. We had a porch that overlooked the watering hole perfectly, so most days we saw groups of elephants, giraffe, cape buffalo, and zebras coming for a drink and a splash. I'll share the folder of our photos - we have some amazing ones, including a family of lions eating a new kill (zebra), two white rhinos hanging out together, and more.
The best part, beyond the animals, was actually the biggest news of the trip - a total surprise to me, but James picked our porch, at the end of an amazing day of drives and relaxing, as the moment to pop the question after dinner. We were flipping through photos on his camera of the day, then there was a photo of an engagement ring...and the rest is history I suppose :). We got to spend the rest of the trip celebrating our engagement.

Never thought that safari can be so fun!
It was my first trip to Africa.
Telling truth I had neither safari, nor mountain climbing experience before in my life, so it was quite scarry for me and my son.
Now I am back home after almost 2 fantastic weeks spent in Tanzania. And looking back I can confirm that this journey was absolutely awesome. I enjoyed everything: well organized program, prices, food, lodges, kind and lovely managers that helped me with trip planning. My 15-years old son even wished to merry with manager Valery in the future :))
Our guide did his best to give us full and wide picture of wild Africa and now I can state that trevelling with Altezza company was amazing experience for me and my son.
Hopefully to see you soon again, guys!

Fantastic Game Drive in Nairobi National Park
We started out early. Lenny from Tayiai Safaris picked us up at 6am so we could enter the NNP at 6:30am as the first guests on this day. There was a bit of rain in the morning, but right from the gate we started seeing loads of animals.
Lenny is a fantastic guide and we have used him before, and will use him again. His vast knowledge of the local Flora and Fauna is amazing and he takes his time to enlighten us all. Unfortunately we didn't see any big cats this day, but we saw more than 10 different rhinos and a whole lot of Giraffes, Zebras, Antilopes and birds.
Except for the lack of cats, the safari exceeded our expectations, and we got more than our moneys worth. :)

Small and personal company with excellent service.
We went on safari to Serengeti with Stainbok some weeks ago. Their service, briefing, guide etc were all perfect. We've been travelling in East Africa for almost 40 years and have used several different companies. Stainbok is among the best of all of them. Gideon, the manager, held a very good briefing with us the evening before the safariand even though we've been to Serengeti around 15 times before he found some new places to go to. Good, as we saw a kill, a group of hippos blocking the road, lion cubs in a tree and a civet cat with a newly killed lizard.
Perfect safari.

Incredible One Day Private Kruger Safari
Where to begin... Our Private One day Kruger National Park Safari, was absolutely incredible. It began by seeing two lions who had just caught breakfast and were eating it near to the side of the road, and a leopard with a baby cub just a few metres down from the Lions! We saw all of the big five and got so close to a Rhino and Cheetah that words couldn't even describe our excitement at seeing these beautiful animals so up close and personal.
Bernhard our Guide was unbelievable... We honestly couldn't have asked for a better guide, his knowledge of Kruger was impressive and not just of the animals, but the vegetation's and plantation throughout the park. The guides have radios so they are able to communicate and tell each other when they have found certain animals which those on there own drives wouldn't know or be able to see as Bernhard had the most amazing eye for seeing animals that we would never have seen on our own! Bernhard has a huge passion for photography and so does my partner so he really does have the eye for getting those unforgettable pictures and my partner was incredibly grateful for this. Unfortunately our battery ran out after seeing some lions mating and Bernhard offered his camera to my partner to take photos and even SENT us the photos a few days later!! Amazing.
Thank you so much Bernhard for making our first trip to Kruger so unforgettable and allowing us to see all of the big 5 and getting so up close and personal with them, it's a trip we will never ever forget so Thank you, you're doing a great job!
