Garden Route with Safari
We worked with Laurette at Pembury Tours, and had an awesome experience. We came from the US and the communication was great. A lot of planning and details went into our itinerary on their part. They also gave us great suggestions and advice. It really took all the headache and worry out of planning and booking. I would highly recommend working with them to sort out your trip plans!

Your Adventure with Expert Guidance
I usually book my own travel for my wife and I, but I was so overwhelmed with options on this one I turned to Go2Africa, and I am extremely glad I did. The top three reasons why they are awesome: 1) It was my trip. I never felt like I wasn't in control of what I was going to do and they listened to exactly what we wanted to do. 2) They are experts both in the service providers and in Africa. The level of communication ahead of time and during was excellent. All my questions (even the crazy ones) were answered quickly and with an expert response. They worked with us to craft exactly the trip we wanted. 3) They really do want you to have a good experience and are available to make last minute bookings and help out if anything does go wrong. Having that resource really helped keep the vacation mindset going.
Suggestions for those considering booking a trip to Africa. 1) Use a travel agent, preferably a local one like Go 2 Africa. Having somebody to make the phone calls for you, and who knows the specific areas and operators is really beneficial. 2) Do your own research as well. Look into the details of the bookings, verify the locations and inclusions are in line with what you are expecting. Ask questions and be comfortable with your trip far ahead of time. 3) Make the trip your own

Well organized safari!
Well organized and planned safari. We had to change our pick up point just before we arrived in Dar es Salaam but that was no problem. The contact with Kanuth and his staff worked all the time.
Living at Hippo camp was a small adventure with monkeys jumping on our cabin roof and waking us up in the morning! The staff at hippo camp was nice and our cook made great food. Unfortunately we didn't see any wild dogs at Selous but one of the best things we saw was a big family of elephants crossing the river.

An unforgettable journey through a beautiful part of Botswana with a great guide and a good cook
It's a good way to make a first visit in a new country with the guidance of people who live there almost for their lifetime. And Oscar was excellent: a thoughtful guide with respect for the nature, living to share the beauty of his country with his guests. Smart and with a lot of "drive", and very cool in some extreme situations (There are a lot of elephants out there who think that his Landrover must be an unbeatable strong elephant...). We have seen a lot of different animals, the big ones and the small ones. And we enjoyed a landscape abundant of green, lush like paradise. And Oscar endured it stoically when I needed once again more time to make pictures. We enjoyed the tour very much, but also the cooking of "our chief" Setchaba. He was very helpful and flexible and yes, he can cook gluten free! Big thanks for that. Big thanks for everything. It was a great journey and hopefully not the last one in Botswana.

The best expeditioner and tour guide of the South of Africa
A big Mahalo to Malcolm Van Coller (the best expeditioner and tour guide of the South of Africa) for putting together this incredible trip, from camping in the wild in Hganwe and navigating the Chobe River in Botswana to Helicopter rides and bungee jumping over Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, we never thought we would have enjoyed such a good time, great barbecue and infinite amount of laughs. At the end of some trips you just want to go home and others you want to do them all over again, this is one of those. Thank you for everything and especially for the Malcolm Effect!

A Gosheni adventure for life!!
My family of six from Norway spent a five day "Christmas holiday" safari with Gosheni Adventures and visited Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Lake Manyara and Tarangire National Park. We had an adventure of a lifetime ! The guides were very reliable and conscientious, the administration impeccable and the experience outlived our expectations by large.
I will recomend Gosheni adventures to the rest of my family and all of my friends.

Great Experience with Kanuth
Myself and my partner travelled with Kanuth on their 3 days/2night safari. The owner Kanuth was very nice a long with his driver/guide Emanuel. We saw all of the animals on our list and they were extremely accommodating to us when we needed to be back in Dar by a certain time. Be ready for a long bumpy drive to the Selous reserve area and the toilet facilities on the drive are not good. But everything in the camp is perfect and exactly what would be expected. We had an amazing trip-thanks all!!

best safari with Dave!
My family and I spent in total 5 days with Dave of the Kruger Flexi Tour. Three nights and four days in the Kruger and Canyon and two nights in Nelspruit at the Old Vic Backpackers. It was just fantastic! Dave is not only a perfect guide but he is also a wonderful person to spend the time with. We saw all the Big5 every day and he took care of our staying in every little detail. I had high expectation because I read fantastic comments before booking, but at the end it was even better than I thought. Dave, thank you for this wonderful time, we will never forget this holiday and your company!!!
