Good plan, average delivery
Communication was generally quite good as we arranged everything by email and had quick and informative responses to our questions.
The overall safari route is a little different to the typical routes as it includes a few additional parks, which we found to be enjoyable but not essential. The route we thought could have been planned a little better as we had several days where we "doubled-up" on driving instead of viewing each game park in a more logical order.
We had several tour guides over our 12 day safari which ranged in quality from excellent to poor.
The only major issue we had with the whole safari was with accommodation whereby they showed us an example of the accommodation "or similar" for each night and found that when they changed to a "similar" place it was significantly worse than the example we had been showed. We had one night very early on in the trip where instead of staying in a nice guest house we were put in what I can only describe as a half-star motel inside a loud and bright garage. We had paid to upgrade from the basic accommodations to "mid-range" options based on what we saw on Tripadvisor which made this point very upsetting.
Overall we saw a lot of animals and went to a lot of locations which we were very happy with so my only word of advice would be to strongly critique the specific details of the accommodation.

Wonderful experience
We are very pleased with the service during the safari, from the pick-up at the hotel through out the 4 days to the drop off at airport. The guide and rangers were very knowledgeable and competent and were very dedicated to giving us the best experience possible. Wildlife Safaris certainly lived up to our expectations during the tour. Apart from som slow response time while booking and getting confirmation the overall rating is excellent.

Uncomplicated and good value for money
We found Roho Ya Chui online comparing different agencies. After the first contact communication with Ute went very easy and open and we found all our questions quickly answered and we finally booked the safari, Vic-Falls, Cape Town package. Arranging an extension to the trip was also no problem. The trip itself was great, everything was even beyond our expectation. Pick-ups were punctual and reliable. We met nice people in the camps and had great guides. We liked the atmosphere in the lodges especially in Pom Pom with the spacious tents. Going in the rainy season was no problem as we had no drop of rain .... What I missed was a bit physical activity such as hiking or walking, as for safety only drives are being done, but that we knew before and in Cape Town we could finally walk a lot by climbing the table mountain, discovering the city and its surroundings.
We never went on package tours before but this kind of trip Africa it was the right thing to do, especially being there for the first time. I hope to go there again soon!

Unforgettable Serengeti camping trip
Our 2nd time in Tanzania and our 2nd time using Safarionline. Once again we decided to visit Africa at fairly short notice and once again Walter was able to accommodate us with no problems at all. Again communication was constant, clear and once we decided what we wanted, efficiently handled.
We had already done the typical northern circuit on our first trip to Tanzania so this time round we wanted something different, to only stay in the Serengeti as we loved that over other locations. The chosen camp (Serengeti Wilderness Camp) was perfect, a true bush experience. Food was great and it had everything you needed. I always say a flushing loo and hot shower in a tent is luxury already, anything else is just decadence.
Our guide was fantastic and we were in a different part of the park each day and to top it all off we added a balloon trip which was unforgettable.
I have to again thank Walter for his expert knowledge and understanding in organising this amazing trip. So good to know that i have a reliable contact i can use for future trips to africa.

Superb experience in Ruaha
Among my 6 safari experiences, exploring the Ruaha with Chabo has been one of the best. The park itself is outstanding even during wet season and since the first moment I had the impression that Ruaha is Ernest's second home! His great passion, instinct, professionalism and experience has led us to discover the wonders of Ruaha for 3 days that are not related to animals only, but the nature itself. I also would like to thank Ernest because helped us a lot when one of us got sick. Definetely Chabo is a reliable company and Ernest a brilliant guide! Asante Sana!

Native Tanzanians that speak fluent English show you the magic within their beautiful country.
Communication was excellent. Excellent customer service along with great attention to detail. The guides mostly let the beauty of the park speak for itself (meaning they didn't talk the entire time rather they let us enjoy the moments) and were very knowledgable whenever we had questions.
