Legendary kenya !!!! By justtravels india
There are very few moments in life when the timing goes in favour . I had initially planned my trip to kenya in late September but the excitement got the better of me and wanted to go immediately. Dr Saumitra and his team at justtravels india made it possible in July it self . About the trip 'Fantastic' is a small word to describe . We enjoyed the migration and game safaris to the fullest . The itinerary and travel was meticulously designed by him . Hats off to Dr Saumitra and just travels . The driver was very patient with us and he made sure we didn't miss any of the animals in masai mara . We witnessed the migration and the crossing .
Finally thank you Dr Saumitra and justtravels india for making this trip a wonderful and spectacular one . Hoping to plan one more trip with you guys .

Excellent
If you are interested in a safari in Tanzania and having the best possible experience start to finish - look no further than Rupia Adventure. From the moment we sent our initial inquiry everything was handled with the utmost professionalism and knowledge. Voice was invaluable in helping us to plan our personalized safari, to ensure we got to see and experience everything we wanted to. Cosmas was an incredible guide - his knowledge made our trip 10x better than we had ever anticipated. It's like he had a sixth sense knowing exactly where the animals would be! Truly a trip that we will be talking about forever. Thank you Voice, Cosmas and the entire Rupia Adventure team!

Great detail - Astonishing safari
Safari Lifestyles were by far the most responsive and knowledgable of the 3 tour operators we looked at... they were the only one local in Botswana and it was clear from the outset that they stood head and shoulders above the rest... Very happy we chose them.
Firstly we wanted to go to Chobe... where the other two operators just provided lodge recommendations, Roger asked us why we wanted to go to Chobe, stating that it was a very busy area... he was right as we just wanted to go for the name and have since found out that there are much quieter areas... The rest of Botswana was simply unmissable
We took Safari Lifestyles advice and ended up having the best 9 nights imaginable. Unbelievable wildlife experience.
Information was very quick, payment was safe and feedback superb... backed up with a comprehensive website with all the lodges.
Already planning a trip in 2019 and will definitely be using them again.

Six day safari booked at the last minute but still professionally organised impressive itinerary
My initial search made on "Safari Bookings" was followed up promptly with a can-do attitude with the tour being put together booked and confirmed within ten days! We were picked up promptly at eight from the hotel by Ben our driver/guide and Victor handed us our itinerary this had all been confirmed the day before by "WhatsApp" and in person by Victor. This was a mid-range tour and we were not let down our first stop on the road for buffet lunch was really tasty as were all other meals in the camps and picnics.
All accommodation was as expected and to a high standard in good locations although some tricky to get to but well driven by Ben.
The safari itself was full of animals the big five plus plus each of the three locations for specific animal sets, Lake Nakuru for Rhino, Maasai Mara for most things including leopard and hundreds of elephants at Amboseli
Thanks to Victor and Ben for a memorable trip

Great cross-country experience (Dar to Ruaha and back) with knowledgeable and thoughtful guide.
We chose Grassroots Safaris because we liked the idea of a journey across Tanzania rather than touching down on the coast and national parks only. We traveled from Dar Es Salaam through Morogoro and Iringa to Ruaha, stopped for a great hike in the Udzungwa mountains, visited Ruaha NP for several days, and then drove back with a stop in Mikumi NP. The drive in the safari vehicle is long but totally worth it! Every stop was planned carefully, but allowed our intergenerational family group (which included grandparents and teenagers) enough flexibility that we never felt pressured or rushed. We loved seeing the variety of the Tanzanian landscapes, from mountain ranges to highlands to baobab forests, villages, road-side markets, Masai herders, etc. Both in Ruaha and Mikumi we saw tons of animals including lions and a leopard. Our guide, Fikiri, was THE BEST. He was knowledgeable, thoughtful, flexible, patient, and we truly enjoyed getting to know him on this trip. He was always happy to answer our many questions on his country, its history, the variety of its cultures and languages, as well as the animals we saw. You will be lucky to have him as your guide.

One Indescribable Experience
Thank you Lucky, Gideon, Wilson and Dadee for an absolutely INCREDIBLE safari!!! The 12 days spent with you and the animals seen were outstanding. The accommodations were great, the food delicious and the experience unforgettable. I have only been home for 4 days and I am already itching to return. THANK YOU for a life changing experience and I can't wait to see you all again on another safari. To anyone reading this review, these folks provide an excellent safari and experience. You can not go wrong if you opt to choose African Jacana Safari for your Botswana safari.

Great safari
We enjoyed our safari trip into Serengeti, Ngornogoro and Terengeri parks. I did not go to the north part of Serengeti/Maasi Mara, but I heard it will be amazing to watch the migration. I think I will try to make it as far north in the Serengeti park in next trips

Exceeded expectations!! Amazing experience with an incredible guide!
Everything about our trip was incredible; from the start of planning with Deo to the very moment we departed. Deo was great at suggesting places to go and which activities to enjoy at each location. Our safari was heavily centered around spending as much time as possible out in the bush and to experience a taste of a variety of ecosystems and landscapes. We visited Arusha Nat'l Park, Lake Manyara Nat'l Park, Serenti Central and North, Ngonrongoro Crater Nat'l Park, and Tarangire Nat'l Park. Each one offered a new experience and a new understanding of the animals behaviours in each park. We spent an average of 10 hours out in the bush each day, the days were long but so worth it! Daniel, our guide, had a vast knowledge of each park, the animals, birds, and natural behaviours. Being very interested in African conservation, ecology, and culture, the conversations flowed easily with Daniel and the long days felt like mere hours. He was an incredible, not only guide, but human. He is a very intelligent, compassionate, logical, and geniunely kind person and he made our trip all the more incredible. We loved every day spent with Daniel!
We saw the big 5 which everyone hopes to see. But we also saw a lot of amazing smaller species, such as Dik Diks, monitor lizards, pythons, antelopes, cheetah, mongoose, jackals and many many more! An incredible experience with incredible photo opportunities. Daniel would always find the best positions for the jeep so that I could Gert the perfect shot. Again Daniel was amazing!
Each accomodation we stayed at offered something new and unique. We stayed at mid range lodges and they were the perfect combination of rustic african while offering modern comforts, i.e. toilets and showers.
We ended our trip in Zanzibar where we didn't do any expeditions because we were so tired from our amazing safari. We spent 4 days laying around the pool enjoying the sound of the waves crashing on the rocks.
Earthlife Expeditions and all their amazing staff helped to make our trip to Tanzania a cherished memory that will last a lifetime! We will definitely be coming back!

Awesome safari!
The experience in Tanzania was fantastic!
Everything was amazing, my guide was young but very professional! There were some problems with our car, but he have been processed in a short time, so that our trip is not affected. And the food was good, even we have half vegetarian in our group , the chef also made a lot of delicious food!
