Unbelieveable photo lesson in the most unbelievable African setting- loved it! Thank you!
The personal service, communications and follow up were all fantastic and appreciated. The safari was like a movie scene- unbelievable!! Would highly recommend to photographer or beginner amateur like me!

Up close and personal
An afternoon spent on the Pangolin safaris boat on the Chobe River is the best possible way to spend time in Chobe National Park. Every consideration is given to light and position when placing the boat in the best spot to photograph the wildlife and birds that are so abundant here. Thanks for a fantastic trip :-)

Wonderful experience, one that should not be missed.
This is a one-of-a-kind experience and should not be missed. Being able to get so close to animals on the river was incredibly special, the visit to the elephant bunker breathtaking. Being an amateur, relatively inexperienced photographer, I didn't feel intimidated at all amongst some of the highly experience photographers that were also there. The information, tips and insights into animal habits provided many wonderful photographs. The Pangolin team offer a professional product with the personal touch. I would love to go back.

Friendly and helpful safari company
From the moment we were picked up from the airport to the moment we were dropped off, Kenya Walking Survivors Safaris took great care of us! When planning our safari, all emails were answered quickly and they worked with us to make sure we saw everything we wanted while staying within our budget. The food prepared for us was delicious and all staff were friendly and personable.
I would recommend Kenya Walking Survivors Safaris to anyone thinking of a safari!

A truly extraordinary experience
Safari is a Swahili word which means journey. For me this safari turned out to be a journey of self discovery as well as a study of the native wild life. I also gained an understanding of the day by day struggle in a rapidly expanding African country to develop an ecologically balanced understanding of the relationship between man, the native birds, animals, and aquatic life and the earth which we all must share.
The Open Heart Safari website contains a section entitled “who should go?’ This is Tom’s list of what or who makes a good fit for an Open Heart Safari. Each item on the list is “right on” and the trip is designed to make sure that the experience is one that will have a significant impact on the participants. You will be cleansed of preconceptions, your values will be challenged and changed, your emotions will be jolted, there will be tears and laughter, and possibly some sheer terror depending upon your reaction to up close and personal encounters with Nile crocodiles, full grown six ton elephants, and a hippo named Lucas who may just sleep outside your door! And believe me, your heart will be opened.
And perhaps best of all, you will become, as I did, close friends with and share some unforgettable experiences with a group of like minded people who care deeply about the enjoyment of nature and wildlife and the preservation of one of the last truly wild and natural places on our planet.

Amazing adventure... Amazing Tanzania...
Me my friend decided to book the 5-days safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with Safari Trackers Adventures. Although at first we were a bit concerned since the price was quite lower than other tour operators offered us for the same itinerary, things came out great!
Very friendly, helpful and efficient staff, with lots of information for both animals and places visited - a real pleasure to be with. The accommodation was mostly basic camping but good (we fell in love with the Simba public campsite in the rim of Ngorongoro Crater where we were on New Year's Eve!!).
I would recommend this company to all people with a sense of adventure and fun, who don't want to spend a fortune but want to get the most out of such a trip.
5 day camping safari
We have just come back from a 5 days camping safari to Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara and Tarangire national park. Despite some bad weather we had an amazing time and were able to see everything we hoped for. Our guide Emanuel was very knowledgeable and always happy to help; food was prepared by Gabriel and was always tasty and plentiful... despite the thieving BABOON! (Cheeky creatures)!
Trip was very well organized from our first email……. A credit to Mike and his team! We would certainly recommend NORTHERN CIRCUIT ADVENTURE!
Asante Sana!!!!!

Perfect allround service and care
After our wedding at the south coast of Mombasa we spend a week on Safari in Amboseli and Tsavo. We were a group of 27 people and Aslan Adventure Tours & Travel organised the whole trip for us and took care of us during this period. The group ranged from experienced traveller to the "never been in Africa before" person and we only experienced great accommodation, perfectly planned trips and very friendly service in every regard. Since then we booked several more trips, flights and accommodation. The communication via email is sometimes a bit delayed, telephonically Aslan helps you around the clock.

Excellent and Very Accommodating Safari Company
Two friends and I went on a Safari with Kenya Walking Survivors Safaris Ltd in December 2013 and we are very happy with their service. We only had a short time to see as much as possible and the company designed a tour specially to suit our budget and what we wanted to see. We toured through the Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, The Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater in 6 days. A change of guide was needed with the change of country but we were able to keep our cook, which provided some continuity on the trip.
The guides were professional, friendly and adapted their guiding to our needs and interests. We only had small cameras so they worked hard to get us as close as possible to the animals. We were able to tell them what we wanted to see and they both focused on finding that for us.
Food was provided for most of the trip and the lunch stops as well as the food prepared for us was again adapted to our tastes and diets. It was also delicious.
Everyone involved with the company was polite, friendly and suitably relaxed with us. I would highly recommend the company to anyone with any budget.
