Morning Star is a big cheater.
Morning Star is a big cheater. They owe me a total refund of $8,372 which hasn't been returned yet. During the process, they kept telling us that they would transfer the money to us, but they kept delaying it. It has been almost a month since the trip ended, but we still haven’t seen the remittance.
I would like to ask if this company still has any integrity and if it is so difficult to bear its own mistakes. Why should tourists pay for your so-called hacker mistakes? This is outrageous.

Awesome
We spent our fabulous honeymoon in Tanzania with Musa of Gecko Adventure Tanzania. Everything about this trip was perfect, from the moment we arrived in JNIA to our departure we were treated like royalty.
Our guide Musa was the star of the trip, he knew the Selous like the back of his hand, he took us on a life journey as we explored different sections of the expansive park. One can hardly believe that the five days we were there were not enough to cover the park. There was harsly any other human traffic and this gave us the utmost privacy and time to enjoy the park without interruptions. The boat ride and fishing outing on Rufiji River were awesome.
There was so much to see and we really had an awesome safari. Thank you Rama for organizing such a romantic getaway away from the crowds.
We will cherish these memories forever!

Reliable
We arranged privat transport via Grassrootz to visit projectorganisations in different cities in Uganda for our work. Our driver was always in time and was willing to stop wherever we wanted it. He drove save which is very important as the roads are sometimes very tough.
I also booked a gorrila and chimpansee track with Grassrootz. I was happy with the Gorilla track. I asked for the same driver and he put me in a group of people who visited the gorilla family who was most habituated. So I was really happy. For the chimps I was slighly less lucky. I only caught them sitting in the very top end of the tree so it was very hard to have a look at them. So for me this chimps trach was not good value for money, but I understand that this is part of nature!

Nothing was too much trouble for Josh Dreamland Safaris
We were a party of 5 from Wales, UK and have just returned from an incredible 5 day, 4 night safari with Josh Dreamland Safaris. We flew into the Serengeti and then travelled back to Arusha through the Ngorogoro Crater and Tarangire National Park. Our guide was Dickson who was very knowledgeable about the animals, fauna & flora. We saw lots of animals and stayed in fantastic lodges.
Angel from HQ arranged everything for us. With all the online fraud and scams it was a bit concerning sending large sums of money to the company prior to leaving the UK. However, Angel was in touch all the way through the process and we were picked up from our hotel for our flight from Zanzibar to Seronera and we were greeted by our guide at the airport to start our safari. Lizbet who works with Angel at HO on reservations accompanied us on our safari to experience first hand the safari and accommodation so that they could all improve the customer experience at the reservation stage. So well done Josh Dreamland for this initiative. Lizbet was a joy to have along on the trip with us.
When we were doing our research into visiting the Serengeti, the end of October didn’t seem to be the best time to visit. However, approximately 40% of the migrating animals had returned so there were plenty of zebra, wildebeest, buffalo and gazelles to see. Furthermore, we saw so many lions we lost count, along with a cheetah, a leopard up a tree with its kill, hyenas, elephants, giraffes and warthogs galore. A lot of the animals had recently had their young, which added to the experience. We saw Rhino in both the serengeti and the crater, albeit at a distance.
Tarangire is the park of elephants and it certainly didn’t disappoint. A herd of over 100 elephants were at the riverside and watching the baby elephants playing and being mischievous was a joy. A pack of 8 hyenas also had a staring role whilst they rolled in a mud pool following a recent kill, taking turns at chasing off the vultures waiting for the last pickings. However, as we were leaving for the day we were fortunate to come across a pride of 8 lions very actively getting ready to hunt. They put on quite the display for us, and came so close I actually closed the truck window! Fortunately the zebras got away on this occasion.
Thank you Josh Dreamland we had a fantastic trip.

Terribly dissapponted by our agent ,from transport,hotel bookings and check in ,he was just off
We were truly dissappointed on our first experience booking with bonfire to Diani Baobab.
1.Transport -
a)On arrival at Miritini 3am ,we had a pickup challenge ,2 different guys having our contacts ,ready 2 pick us up and confusing us .We couldnt reach our agent for clarification.So frustrating .
b)The one transport means we settled for was so old and uncomfortable.This was after making so many calls with differents guys .
3. Checking in-Upon arrival ,we were not able to be checked in since our agent had not communicated to us that the hotel checkin time is 10am and we couldnt access the all inclusive facility as his early communication until checked in .Mind you we reached the hotel 5am ,only to wait at the reception till 10 am.
Having to pay an extra cost to access breakfast yet we could have done flights and got to the hotel in good time with no challenges .Old parents and kids tired after a long trip in the night .Then wait for long hours to check in.
-Clear communication on checking timings should be passed to clients
-Agent should not rush in closing business
- Agent should confirm about laggages and maximum kgs to br carried per person .Some of us had to pay extra for laggage.

Lenny is very kind and helpful!
Going Green Safari Tours gives a really nice experience for a good price! The accommodations were great, with really good breakfast and dinner buffets. Lunches were packed for us the other days, which was great!
The tour guides were kind and seemed like they wanted us to have the best experience. When we had given up on seeing elephants and were on the way to exit the national park, the driver for the safari got a call about elephants. He turned the car around for us so we got to see them after all!

Amazing Bucket List Experience
We highly recommend booking your safari with Wildlife Safaris! We had a seamless experience right from the first contact online. They quickly responded and gave detailed answers to all of my many MANY questions. The online payment system was smooth. Then the safari itself was an unbelievably wonderful experience. Our guide Hoppy was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and we managed to see everything we were aiming to see! Truly the bucket list experience that we were looking for!

Excellent tour operator
I came to Zim to celebrate my birthday, Arthur did a great job ensuring that we have a very memorable stay. The itinerary, the different activities, the coordination with the service providers, the birthday surprises, the great communication with us made this whole trip my best trip so far. I highly recommend ASM and would definitely come back again to Zim through them.
