A magical experience
When researching our trip to Botswana, I found the advice provided by Safari Specialists outstanding. Over a period of several weeks, they patiently answered my many questions in a friendly and professional manner. Nothing seemed too much trouble, their expertise was evident and their response time was impressive.
We enjoyed the most wonderful holiday, experiencing for the first time the variety and excitement that is Botswana. Our camps were ideal for our needs, the guides, trackers and other staff were outstanding and everything worked as it should. The memories of this trip will last forever, but we're not finished with this super country yet. I look forward to seeking advice from Nadine and her colleagues again soon regarding our next visit to Africa's best kept secret.

Extraordinary Kilimanjaro climb & Safari
We climbed to Kili as 6 pack group in 2006 and visited Manyara, Ngorongoro and Serengeti plains. This time I will go with another group again from Turkey on January 2015 with the organization of Afrigalaxy. I hope it will be OK again.

Awesome trip
I had the pleasure of meeting Emmanual while on safari in August of 2004. Emmanuel offered me the highest level of customer service and was the one member of our crew who saw problems and without being asked took action to solve them, including whittling a tent peg that would anchor my tent more effectively. He speaks English very well and understands what travelers need to be comfortable and safe. He is thoroughly knowledgeable of the animals and plants of the country and knows where to explore and how to make your safari the best success. Imma also has excellent connections in Tanzania and doesn't hesitate to do whatever he can to help everyone on his trip. I highly recommend him as your guide and will some day call upon him to be my guide when I return to Tanzania.

walking safari
Walking near rhinos was a great experience. Our guide was Courtney. He could answer any questions and made us share his concern with the preservation of these astonishing animals. An important moment in our visit of Zimbabwe

Memorable! Fascinating! Life changing! Thrilling! Perfection!
I had the most positive experience with Mable vanderMuelen, Lauren and Philip of Journey Beyond!
The itinerary they planned for me was flawless.
This trip was everything we wanted and from the moment we arrived the entire journey including flights, transfers to the lodges and tours were well coordinated.
The accomodations were luxurious, the food outstanding and the game viewing was indescribable.
Our entire trip from Botswana to Zambia to South Africa was way beyond our expectations.

Go2Africa will help you organise the holiday of a lifetime.
We travelled to South Africa with our 16 year old grandson for a special birthday treat. We discovered Go2Africa quite by accident and were so glad we did. Our dealings with Ashley at Go2Africa were excellent. All our queries were answered promptly. The overall cost of the tour that we put together was very good when compared with identical quotes from travel agents in Australia. Nothing went wrong on the whole trip - drivers for our private transfers were waiting to collect us from airports and hotels on time, (although we had to change our transfer time from Tau Game Lodge when we realised we would not get to the airport on time). The safari lodges chosen were fantastic! Pondoro had the most amazing food, Kapama Southern had the most amazing accommodation - would highly recommend the luxury family suites, and at Tau the rooms overlooked the waterhole (very close) and we had amazing sightings of wildlife. They even upgraded our grandson to his own room. All three lodges had excellent food, rooms, staff and game drives. The family room at Cascades, Sun City was probably the biggest disappointment. The room was smaller than the bathroom in our suite at Kapama! Also the water park at Sun City is pretty tame compared with water parks in Australia. However we played golf on 2 days on the Gary Player course, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The cost of a private lesson from the caddies was incredibly inexpensive and our grandson's golf improved a great deal. We would highly recommend Go2Africa to any travellers wanting to plan their South African holiday.
