Moremi Game Reserve Camping Safari
We booked with Mogalakwena Safari Tours for Moremi Game Reserve, 4 nights camping, tenting accomodation was excellent, the food, the land cruisers and the tour guides were a top notch.
For the first two days, it looked like it will bore as we saw a few animals, but on the third day, Mr Soloman sedimo the tour guide made our trip memorable as we saw a pride of lions, elephants,warthogs and wild dogs, and enjoyed the mokoro trails in the afternoon.We leave to Germany on high.
Thanks to the whole teama

He does his job with heart and sould and has given us a lot of unforgottable moments during our Safari. Thank you very much. Tanja and Drago

Sucessive trip to east africa - kenya
We had booked a 6 days and 5 nights package to Kenya through mara triangle safaris covering amboselli, naivashu and masai mara.Though it was a short time we pretty much covered the important places of Kenya. We thought that in Africa we would come across some obstacles like language and food but lucy and our driver kristopher were cordial enough to help us out in our difficulties. It was an enjoyable trip of course as well as a valuable and educative trip, knowing the cultures and traditions of the masais was real fun. Overall I enjoyed the trip, Lucy was in touch with us throughout the trip and made sure we were comfortable and so was kristopher.
I will surely recommend this company to anyone traveling to Kenya as they are really committed and value for money.

Very reliable and high level of customer service
The tour itself was very well arranged. The team of guides/porters is very experienced and carry a high level of customer service. (To be honest: This surprised me a lot!) The over-all communication was fast and questions where clearly answered. I would recommend Kilimanjaro Bound to people who prefer to deal with, and support, a local company with a team of mountain enthusiasts.

Fantastic self drive holiday in Namibia and Botswana!
We had previously used this company for a self drive holiday in Namibia and knew just how good our latest trip would be. We were not disappointed, as expected the accommodation was fantastic, the scenery breath taking and the people unbelievably friendly. For anyone planning a trip in any of the countries covered by this company, we would suggest you stop looking for alternatives and use them! We had some issues with one of the lodges and on our return these were dealt with comprehensively and to more than our full satisfaction. That said even these issues could not detract from the holiday of a lifetime. Thank you all so much!

Excellent guide and service made our safari memorable
We could not have asked for a better safari guide than Armand from Wild Wings. He was attentive, good humoured and engaged at all times, as well as being knowledgeable about the animals, birds, plants and everything else we asked about. Armand is clearly passionate about his work, and committed to pleasing his clients. When some of our fellow tourists, who had their hearts set on seeing a lion, missed a sighting due to a cancelled flight, he made every effort to find another, and was openly delighted when he succeeded. When it was just the two of us, he adapted to what we wanted, for example he was happy to stop longer to watch birds.
We also liked having a separate chef to cook for the group. The food was excellent - something which couldn't have been achieved by a safari guide who had just spent a full day on the road, as some safari companies require. It was great to have dishes with a South African flavour.
Setting everything up by e-mail is not always easy, but once we arrived in Africa we were very happy with how our tour was organised, both in Kruger and beyond. The accommodation was more than comfortable and matched what we expected. All the timings worked out, and the range of different safaris provided a good contrast. The bush walk organised by the national park was disappointing, because the rangers were not especially interested, but their night-time safari at Satara was excellent. The WW recommendation to visit the Chobe River in Botswana proved to be exactly right.

Fabulous experience and memory for life
Fully prepared and full of expectations we, mother and son, arrived in Tanzania for our Kilimanjaro expedition and safari organized by African Wildcats. Both surpassed our expectations! The Kili expedition was of course tough but such a great experience. We were escorted by Saidi and his crew and they all did a fabulous job! So kind, caring, experienced, wise and sensible. Amazing food, thank you Paulo. We loved the singing of our crew, especially when they joined us, singing, in the last part of our way back to base camp at the end of summit day. African Wildcats decision not to start summit day at midnight is a really good one. It helps you climbing and enjoying this tough last climb and makes sure that you'll have the whole summit, under the sun in the snow, to yourself. No one else on the summit makes the feeling of invincibility even bigger.
After 6 days on the Kili, we had a few relaxing safari-days with our very experienced guide Ole. He guided us to the right spots. We saw many animals and often really close. The Sangaiwe tented lodge, where we stayed the first night, is exceptionally beautiful; almost a pity we only arrived there at the end of the afternoon.
Thank you African Wildcats, for this fabulous experience and memory for life.
We will highly recommend African Wildcats Expeditions to anyone planning on visiting Tanzania for the Kilimanjaro expedition and safari.

Well-planned 4-day safari through Tanzania's Tarangire, Serengeti, & Ngorongoro national parks.
Fantastic four-days safari through Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro! Perfect, on time service. The accommodations were superb and my driver/guide, Sarima, knew exactly where the Big Five might be and were! I couldn't be more pleased and satisfied. Absolutely a five-star adventure! Look no further. Highly recommended!
