ALL good and beyod the normal call on the transfer from the Hotel through the Zambia/Zimbabwe border
The pick up and transfer from Livingstone airport gave us helpful information.
The arrangements for the helicopter ride were good.
Everything at the Hotel went without problem.
The 'unusual' cross border movement between Zambia and Zimbabwe was handled well and especially as Mrs Lobb left an item in the first car. This item was brought to the Victoria Falls Hotel - for which Thank you.

A safari company that feels like family
I can tell only positive things about World Tours & Safaris, in all honesty. Ranging from their communication through to a professional way of conducting safaris and very fair pricing, to remaining in touch, Richard Kilonzo and company have left a very lasting impression with me and my family. We did a three-day tour with them to Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater area and Tarangire National Park back in 2009 and we are still in touch and I have recommended Mr. Kilonzo's services to friends and will continue to do so. Before we went on a safari in Tanzania, we obviously researched a number of companies but we chose World Tours & Safaris because they were the most responsive and accommodated our preferences fully. Another very positive impression was that Mr. Kilonzo took the time to meet us in Arusha the day before the safari started and we got a chance to also meet our guide, Edgar, whom we found excellent. We felt very well taken care of and with the apt guiding of Edgar, we were lucky enough to see the big five. An added bonus of the safari was the accommodation, which was also superb. If I ever have a chance to go on a safari in Tanzania again, I will surely look up Mr. Kilonzo and recommend that you do too.

Personal, professional, amazing knowledge – simply an excellent service and a wonderful safari!
I want to thank Steffi and Mark of Gondwana Tours & Safaris for their excellent service from the very first email to my final departure. My wife and I had a breathtaking trip to the Victoria Falls and the Okavango Delta and thanks to Gondwana everything went perfectly well. The recommended camps and lodges were all superb, with very friendly service and stunning game drives (we saw lions, leopards, cheetahs, giraffes, wilddogs, buffalos, lots of elephants, hippos, crocs and much more!). The itinerary that Steffi had compiled was totally tailor-made according to our wishes and expectations (walk with Sylvester the cheetah at Elephant Camp in Vic Falls and the Khwai River Lodge as the highlights!). She gave prompt answers to every single question we had previously and she and Mark were available during the trip for 24h. Mark met us at the airport in Maun to welcome us and make sure that everything went alright. He double-checked all the flights and even helped us with the check-in. After all we can highly recommend Gondwana Tours and Safaris as it might be hard to find another tour-operator with such a personal and professional service. First class!

Will come again
Vast information on all the animals, as well as on all the unbelievable birds in the vicinity. Our guide Marc kept us all interested, involving the children at all times where possible. We are going to miss the African bush and the experience, but we will be back.

Perfect honeymoon
We have just returned from an amazing honeymoon organised by The Luxury Safari Company. As first-timers to Africa we had no idea what to expect and were overwhelmed with the wonderful experience on safari in Sabi Sands. Rose recommended Savanna Private Game Reserve and it was perfect - we loved the staff, food and, of course, the game drives. Our guides and tracker were so knowledgeable and really enhanced the experience. We finished off our honeymoon with a few days on the beach of Bazaruto Island, Mozambique. The Anantara was lovely and relaxing, once again with good service and food.
We were also impressed with the transfers organised by The Luxury Safari Company as the drivers were always punctual and extremely courteous. We have honestly never had such a smooth experience with hotel transfers and internal flights.
The communication from Rose was professional and she always promptly responded to any questions, including arranging an itinerary perfectly around international flights that we had booked separately. The lovely surprises like a bottle of champagne, rose petal filled bubble bath or private dinner in our suite organised by Rose made our holiday feel like a real honeymoon. We will definitely use this company again for our next African holiday.

Awesome safari with a company that really cares about the environment, the wildlife and the people.
We had an incredible safari, surpassing our expectations. We saw everything. Our driver/guide James was perfect, had a great nose for sniffing out special sightings and was a mine of information for birds. We saw 181 bird species, 44 animals. Lions and Leopards mating, cheetah cubs, a black rhino, it was just one thing after another and the accommodation was fantastic every night. When Richard got sick and had to be taken to hospital it was no trouble for Simon and James to extend and change the itinerary. Simon looked after all our hotel and bus bookings. The only thing we would not recommend is the Impala shuttle bus to and from Nairobi. They provide a poor service but that was not Simon's fault.

Review about a 5 day safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro)
I was on a 5 day safari including Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro in August, 2014.
I had a wonderful time on the safari. I was completely satisfied with our driver,Hassani and our cook, Pius. They both made the trip unforgettable, with their knowledge, sense of humor and kindness. Hassani proved to be a wonderful driver and guide, who knew everything about wildlife and always found the animals we were looking for.
Pius concocted the most amazing and tasty foods there are!
The luxury tents just outside of Tarangire were fabulous, and i loved sleeping in our tents in Serengeti and Nngorongoro.
The national parks were amazing and we were lucky enough to see the big 5!
Thank you for your professionalism Hassani, Pius and everybody at Northern Circuit Adventure, who made this trip amazing! I would highly recommend this outfit to anybody!
