'Forever cherishing the amazing experience with Nyathi Travel & Tours'
l had an amazing day courtesy of a voucher extended Nyathi Tours which will forever be a source of fond memories. The voucher was an awesome gift l got after winning Miss University of Zimbabwe 2015. Together with my friends, Nyathi Travel took us to Ngoma Kurira which is in Domboshava, 40km from Harare with a cheerful and extremely assured driver, Mr Zambezi. Upon arrival, the activities that we had included mountain climbing, site seeing with impecable views, exploration of caves that uncovered Zimbabwes history as potrayed through rock art and paintings presumed to originate from the stone age era. Not only was this refreshing but it was an enlightening experience, particularly learning the history of Zimbabwe through the art and paintings in caves accompanied by detailed commentary by our guide, who was ever present to address our curiosity. And of course not forgetting the delicious food provided! Thank you Nyathi Tours for the memories.

First Safari, best budget option!
We had an incredible time, our driver was incredible knowledgeable and our cook superb! We had some issues with a rain storm at our camps and the guys went beyond their duties to get us a warm room to sleep, best value for the money overall!! No way to have a better experience on my first safari, everything was great and according to what they described.

An incredible experience richer with Bubezi Safaris.
Your enthusiasm, very high level of knowledge about the birds and the animals and your hospitality was amazing. A definite recommendation for anyone who wants a experience with a tailor-made safari. We will definitely come back one more time . We also have a review posted on your facebook page

Awesome trip, one of the best of my life!
Richard and his team of drivers and guides are amazing. Richard is a very proffesional and nice man who always is worried about their customers. The drivers and guides are amazing and they have a lot of knowledge about all the national parks we visited. All the team made us feel very comfortable and they take care of us in every moment. After few hours together we become a big family. Hongera sana!!!

Quick and sweet with no fuss, and a wonderful surprise gift!
The only time we had been on safari before was in Kenya a few years ago. I was on business in South Africa recently and took advantage of this by bringing my wife along for a trip to the Okavango. We wanted lodges and we ended up being very pleased with the choices given.
Botswana is an expensive destination but well worth it... especially to see those toothy painted wolves. We know we got a fair price from Safari Lifestyles and a great gift! (I'm under a promise not to mention what it is though). Would we use this company again?... that's a resounding yes.

It's been a blessing working with Tomodachi several years go. And would not hesitate to recommend.

An absolutely amazing adventure!
I have nothing but great things to say about this tour company.
I went with a group of six people at the end of October for a five day panoramic safari trip. We saw so many animals! Chris's knowledge of animals is incredible, and he had so many interesting things to say on whatever we came across. Chris's truck was amazingly comfortable, and it was a great way to drive around the national park. He was enthusiastic, friendly, and so organized. The food was quite honestly the best food I have had in South Africa.
Highly highly recommended - book with Armadillo Overland Safari & Adventure Tours, I promised you won't regret it!

It sounds like a cliche but this trip was a trip of a lifetime. Spiritual, exciting, awe inspiring.
The organisation of the trip was exceptional. We were consulted during the planning and all our suggestions were considered and discussed. Once we all agreed with the itinerary, we were happy for African Ubuntu Safaris to finalise the arrangements. The final Itinerary looked great and we were all excited about the trip.
Cuan from African Ubuntu Safaris communicated regularly with us to ensure we were happy with the plans. Our questions were answered immediately.
The Trip was incredible, we were impressed with the ease of transition from one place to the next. Having someone welcome us at each airport and hotel enabled us to relax and enjoy the journey. Everything was organised and went like clockwork....our drivers and guides were always on time. Our guides were professional, knowledgeable, and passionate about their jobs. They were always extremely helpful and accommodating. We felt valued and that this trip had been planned personally for us. We always felt safe and were amazed that each daily adventure offered something special. We experienced 3 weeks of wonderful experiences, rich, spiritual and awe inspiring. When we thought we could see nothing new, something would surprise us. Our guides shared their love and respect for the animals, environment and culture of all the National Parks and places we visited. It was such a personal experience and fantastic that 7 of us were able to share it. 7 women travelling together. We continue to say it was a trip of a lifetime. Loving reliving the experiences as we share our photos with each other. Finishing our trip with a Glam camping experience was magical. We are recommending African Ubuntu Safaris to everyone. A magical trip of a lifetime!

Unforgettable experience!
As a small group of three, we thoroughly enjoyed our trip & we all agree that it one of the most memorable experiences we've ever had. I have highly recommended 'It Started in Africa' to all of my friends & will continue you to do so. From start to finish, the service provided was excellent, with prompt & efficient email replies to advice & guidance in relation to tour packages. Hendre Francisco lived up to his job title as Happiness Manager & did all in his power to make me happy.
The only negative aspects of the trip were the obvious tourist trap stop offs & unfortunately the Masai Village visit. We felt as though we were being rail roaded into buying over priced souvenirs & paying more than needed for the extras. We did not enjoy the Masai Village we visited as we were told to pay $30 entry & were then pressured to buy overpriced souvenirs before leaving. Considering the cost of the trip in general, we found the extra costs to be unexpected.
On the other hand, we were extremely impressed by the accommodation provided during our trip. We stayed at wonderful lodges & campsites throughout our trip. We were also very happy with Martin, our tour guide. He was very friendly, helpful & accommodating. He happily answered all of our questions & sharwd his knowledge & experience. We were lucky enough to see The Big 5 at the Mara & also experienced the migration of the wildebeest, which was truly amazing. We would like to give a special mention to the Punda Millias lodge where we were upgraded on the final night of our trip ;) We had a wonderful stay there to finish off the fantastic Kenyan experience.
I will continue to recommend It Started in Africa to everyone I know & hopefully they will get to experience a Kenyan safari like we did.
