Once in a lifetime experience that reminds you why life is worth living.
We visited South Africa as a family trip and are now scheming how to make it an annual event that all in the family can attend. A trip intended to expose my mom and my oldest two nephews to international travel and it was an absolute success. PaperJet Travel and Justin Perumal made our trip everything that we could have ever imagined...and more!! They organized our safari at Kruger which was an amazing time of bonding as we learned new animals and birds, tracked the Big 5 (all of which we saw at least twice), and were surrounded by here’s of buffalos and elephants. Seeing the animals in their natural habitat was breathtaking. Marka, our guide at MalaMala Game Reserve, was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to find every animal we desired to see and to ensure that we fully enjoyed our time. We also spent time in Cape Town and Johannesburg where the people are ridiculously loving and absolutely amazing. The hotels we stayed in were more than accommodating and the staff ensures that we enjoyed our stay by going above and beyond their duties. South Africa is a beautiful place, full of culture and beauty that everyone should experience at least once.

So much to see
This was my third trip to Kenya and it seems to get better every time! We went to four different parks/reserves (Samburu, Maasai Mara, Aberdares (moorlands), and Lake Nakuru.) All were very different. Samburu was the most intimate, with abundant game and fascinating landscape (I'd stay at the Samburu Intrepids again in a heartbeat!). Maasai Mara is so very spectacular (wildebeest migration season), with countless animals in every direction. Entim Camp was perfectly positioned and had great service. In the Aberdares, we stayed in the Kenya Wildlife Service 'lodge' -- a unique spot in the high moorlands (quiet, solitary, a world away). Our final stop was Lake Nakuru where we finally saw rhinos.

Frienship with Rhinos
I don't have too much to say. The walking rhino safari exceeded all my expectations and it was an unforgetable experience. The citytour in Livingstone and the visit to the Chief Mukuni Village were also very interesting thanks to the high professionalism and friendliness of our guide Joseph

Fun and reliable
Our experience with the Chobe safari was excellent. Our guide went out of his way to find all of the animals that we should see in Chobe. We had a hard time finding the baboons, but our guide did not give up and at the end of our safari we found many baboons. There were moms and babies, baboons in trees, by the water, and all over. We saw lions, giraffes, eagles, hippos, antelope, and many other things. We also did the photo tour on the boat at sunset. The highlight was watching the elephants cross the river to an island in the middle. All in all our trip was great and memorable.

Great Safari experience
My fiancee and I used African Coast Travel & Tours for a 6 days Safari in Vic Falls and Botswana. Joseph (out tour guide) was really knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. With his knowledge of the area, we were able to get a free updrade in Vic Fall for our hotel and were able to book extra activities without any problem.
All the guides in the Safari were knowledgeable and gave us a lot of explanations on the animals and plants we saw. Plus, in Hwange, the guide was able to track a lion only with the paw prints on the ground (This was really nice to track the animal to see them).
The accommodations, food and activities were as described and we really enjoy it. I strongly recommend this Safari and this tour company

Extraordinary!
The company is excellent! They made our stay in Masai Mara feel easy, fun and safe. Thank you for all the attention and reliability. I will recommend you for my family and friends.
Kanyezi Delivers the Best
We were thrilled with our trip to South Africa with Kanyezi. Everyone that we worked with was knowledgeable, helpful, and kind. The accommodations were impeccable , the food amazing, and the scenery incredible. If you have ever imagined traveling to South Africa, try to make that happen. Kanyezi also provided the best rates for such a once in a lifetime adventure that I am hoping will not be just this once.

Trans-Kalahari Adventure
Traveled for 20+ days with Kiboko going from Cape Town, South Africa to Vicoria Falls, Zimbabwe. Travel was via a large 16 person truck/bus with two large refrigerators in the rear. Every day fresh fruit was provided. This is a long trip covering over 6,0000 kilometers. Our guide, Misheck Mahonye was absolutely fantastic in providing extra information and recommendations. He made sure our comfort was attended to with multiple rest stops for restroom breaks and snacks. This is a great trip if you wish to see a wide variety of landscapes and animals. It is not a good trip for young children or those who don't want to spend hours traveling from desination to destination.

Excellent safari!
The communication for arranging the safari was great! The price, the times and also the safari, the animals we finally saw, everything was really great and worth the money! Thank you!!!

Amazing wildlife, great Guide (Oswald), hot coffe, cold drinks!
There is a certain hesitation before sending a rather large amount of money to a (potentially dubious) safari operator "somewhere in Tansania"; *BUT*: Lion King Adventures was everything we expected and more!
Airport pickup, tailored program and accommodations right the way we wanted, great nature/wildlife/sights. In particular we can really recommend *Oswald* as a guide!
Contact with Anna before getting to Tanzania worked great, when arriving to the first Hotel we had a handwritten card by her, apologizing, that she couldn't be there that night (but she met us when we came back one week later and then she and her husband drove us to Moshi the next day).
Most tours are relatively similar: same car, same accomodations, same lunchbox. But:
I guess the moment i knew that we had booked the right tour with the right operator was when Oswald unfolded a piknick blanket on the bonnit of the car and prepared a coffee for us while he checked us in at the first park. It was this tiny detail (or the fridge in the back of the car with cold sodas/beer) that made the tour stand out. And the fact that he could spot animals with his eyes that we couldn't find even using binos...
I obviously only met one guide, but he made this tour perfect. Recommend him any time!
