amazing service provider for travel photography
20 days traveling through Tanzania with "it started in Africa" allowed me to photograph people, landscapes and wildlife in fantastic environments and with low budget I had.
I recommend this operator to all who seek to know the tanzania, with an optimal price / quality ratio.
I liked very much, and repeat all over again.

Family Safari Extravaganza
At first we were a little apprehensive booking such an expensive holiday over the Internet but Ute was responsive and knowledgable and gave us confidence things would go to plan.
We chose three safari experiences, all with And Beyond including Ngala, Chobe Under Canvas and Xudum lodge in the Okavango Delta. We separated Ngala and Chobe with a short stay at the Royal Livingstone Hotel in Zambia which was well worth the stay, a little qwerky, old worldy and had great access to the Victoria Falls.
Each safari park gave a different experience, Ngala with its variety of animals (we saw the magnificent 7 within 2 days) and the real benefits of a private park, Chobe with the sheer numbers of wildlife, and the Xudum with its variety supplementing drives with boat trips and traditional "mekoro" canoe outings.
And Beyond impressed with its quality service and attention to detail, well worth the money paid.
All in all a great trip we will all remember for the rest of our lives.
Experienced and Dependable
This is the third time I have used Somak for a 'special' holiday (having been, with them, to Tanzania, Kenya, Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Zanzibar and Mauritius). Somak are experienced in their field and 'know their stuff'. They will advise as appropriate and also research and arrange any bespoke requirements their clients have - I usually have something I've read about that I'd like to do and they've never failed to disappoint. All of our holidays have been multi-centre but the experience is seamless - when we travel to a new destination, without fail there is always someone to meet us - which is invaluable when you are in unfamiliar surroundings. The only thing I would recommend to Somak is that they build in a courtesy call when their clients return from holiday - I usually have some constructive feedback where improvements could be made and I feel they are missing a trick by not doing this. But, in terms of recommending Somak as a tour operator, I wouldn't hesitate.

Fantastic Trip to South Africa
We booked our Cape Town and safari experience with Ker & Downey Africa after a recommendation from a friend. The properties selected in Cape Town and the winelands were spot on, just the right mix of luxury and simplicity. Babylonstoren in particular was a stand-out for us. In the Kruger, we visited Kapama Game Reserve. The guiding was exceptional, we managed to see all of the Big 5 in our 3 days there.

Wonderful Wild Wind Safaris
This was a last minute booking to Namibia with my wife. I am a professional photographer with National Geographic and was looking to take photos around Namibia. I really don't think I could have picked a better tour operator. Philip and Martha (the owners) made the whole process so easy, even though this was last minute. Our guide was Martha, who I have to say is one of the nicest, most kind and helpful woman I have ever met. Her knowledge of Namibia, its cultures, history and wildlife are amazing. Martha was unbelievably helpful to us in trying to get the best photos throughout the holiday. Martha was always trying to be available whatever the time and place I needed to take shots. In terms of bookings of accommodation, Wild Wind safaris went out of their way to secure the best spots for me, even at the late stage of booking. And in terms of photography, Martha really was so flexible and knowledgeable in helping me find and photograph all the main species. Thank you so much, I WILL be back very soon! :-)

Quite simply the best safari tour operator out there
The Aardvark team live and breathe the wildlife rich parts of the African continent, knowing where to go, when to visit and what will best suit your budget. You couldn't be in better hands when it comes to organising your first or your tenth safari......

Wonderful time on Masai Mara Safari
My friend and I had a great 3-night stay at the Olo Shaiki lodge. Ashton, our safari guide, gave an incredible tour. He really went out of his way to make sure we saw everything we could possibly see. Olo Shaiki is an amazing place, much better than how it appears in the website. The service was incredible. The best trip of my life! The Mara is unlike any place on earth. Very grateful to have gone, will remember it forever, and I hope to return some day. Highly recommend Bush and Game Safari Company to anyone visiting Kenya.
Highly professionally organized and run mixed camping/lodge safari through five Kenyan parks
