Gazella Tours – very professional, attentive and personal service
We attended a motorcycle tour in Namibia that was arranged by a major manufacturer and we combined this with a cross-Namibia sightseeing and safari tour with the help from Gazella Tours.
With Gazella Tours we felt in very good and highly professional hands – they recommended us the places to visit, made a tailored program for us, were always available to listen to our preferences and adjust the plans accordingly. The final program was “tailor made” according to our wishes and paying attention to the smallest detail.
The service of Gazella Tours was very professional and also personal – we felt that they really, really wished us to see and experience the best Namibia has to offer.
Based on our experience, we would highly recommend Gazella Tours to anybody who is visiting Namibia for the first time!

Unforgettable experience
After two weeks spent in Africa we honestly have to say that it was the best experience in our whole lives. With Barak everything was possible, he is so helpful and kind, our trip was problem free and at last but not least we had so much fun together! 😊 Thank you for everything, hope to see you again one day 😊

It was fun. Try to visit when the Falls aren’t dry

Very unprofessional and disruptive to mix different budgets (accommodations) in the same tour
So the feelings are mixed.
We did a 4 day safari with them, including Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire.
The driver David was very good and knowledgeable and we are really happy about him, his skills and the professionalism from his side. 10/10 for the driver himself.
Food was good (our chef was Richard). First night in a lodge was nice. Second night in Serengeti camp wasn't the best (facilities were super dirty and shower was only cold, but maybe also rain had something to do with it), but Ngorongoro camp was just lovely.
However, there were lot's of organizational issues that did significantly bother us.
What they did is they put 7 people from different companies and with different accomodations in the same vehicle - meaning that everytime everyone had to be delivered and picked up at a different location (sometimes literally 1 hour apart), so we lost a lot of time every single evening and then morning for pickups (things also didn't go so smooth with packing up) - very sadly on the account of our precious time for game drives (keep in mind that the best time to see animals is as early in the morning as possible). The 7th person was put in the last minute and so there wasn't any space left for our cook, which made it very inconvenient form him and us trying to find ways to get him to our destinations.
The driver wasn't really aware about plans of different people in our vehicle after the end of this trip - like that half of the group was supposed to continue the tour and that the rest were to go to the airport, and this wasn't communicated and caused some confusion, we also were not really sure about our luggage pickup (we were told to pack light and so we left half of the luggage at our hotel, to be delivered to the airport pickup on the last day).
So as said, the lack of organization did really bother us and we're not happy about this.
We've done many safaris elsewhere and nowhere in the world did "a sharing safari" mean different accomodations (but instead just a mixed random group of people, enjoying the same standard of the trip). I don't know how it seems to be the norm in Tanzania, as if everyone is doing it - we were joined by people from agencies like Serengeti African Tours and another company and they all said that they just share clients all the time.
Now I don't wanna be that "nothing was ok" person, but I just have to mention this -
we ran out of soda and wine on the second day (how can you promise wine, beer and soda with our meals and then provide only 1 bottle of wine for 7 people for 4 days?
The animals and the guide shed a nice light on the whole experience, but I have to say that organization-wise, this was by far the worst experience we've had in any safari. So my advice here seems to be - just take the cheapest tour as it obviously makes zero sense to pay more for a "preferably better company", or maybe make sure that people in your group will have the same standard or accommodations, to make things go smoothly.

The guide treated us like a friend and all our concerns were taken care of
We had a great trip with AGS Travel Africa. We had fun there and saw lots of wildlife like leopards elephants rhinoceros and many more. The food there was unsurpassed and the accommodations comfortable. The guide treated us like a friend and all our concerns were taken care of. I would recommend. You can take the tour if you want

Great value for money. We had the best guide ever！his name is Hasen
I recently had the pleasure of taking a tour with Hasen, and I can't recommend him enough! Our tour guide, Hasen, was truly exceptional. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and personal touch made the experience unforgettable. He went above and beyond to ensure that everyone felt included and engaged, sharing fascinating stories and insights that brought the sights to life.
The itinerary was well-planned, allowing us to explore at a comfortable pace while maximizing our experience. Hasen's passion for the area was evident, and his tips and recommendations were invaluable.
If you’re looking for a memorable tour with a fantastic guide, I highly recommend you get Hasen as your guide!
