Wonderful experience and great tours!
We went to Masai Mara and Amboseli with Vacay Holiday Deals. The service was excellent, they answered all my questions and met all my requirements before we started the safaris. The guide was great, very professional and always made sure that we had all information and that we were safe. The car was new and perfect for the two safaris. I highly recommend them!!! I travelled with my parents in private safaris and they always made sure that we were all confortable and safe

Amazing trip to Ngorongoro park
I enjoyed this trip a lot and I recommend it if you want to visit Ngorongoro park. The landscape is amazing and you can see many wild animals. The guide was very kind and helpful and provided everything we needed, including transportation from and to our hotel, information and delicious food. Thank you for everything and I hope to come back soon.

Amazing safari trip through Uganda
Our recent safari with Heart of Africa Adventure in Uganda was an unforgettable experience. From the majestic wildlife to the breathtaking landscapes, every moment was packed with awe and adventure. It all started with a full day in Murchison Falls National Park, one of Uganda’s largest and most renowned parks. We began with a game drive across the vast savannah, where we encountered herds of elephants, lions, buffaloes, and various antelope species. The highlight of the day, however, was the boat cruise along the Nile River to the base of Murchison Falls. The sight of water thundering down the narrow gorge was absolutely stunning, and we were lucky to spot hippos, crocodiles, and an impressive variety of birdlife along the way.
After our time in Murchison, we transferred to Semuliki National Park, a hidden gem known for its unique hot springs and dense forests. The drive itself was an adventure, taking us through scenic rural landscapes. Once at Semuliki, we enjoyed a nature walk to explore the park’s diverse ecosystems, which was a peaceful and immersive experience in Uganda’s natural beauty. Next, we ventured to Kibale Forest for a chimpanzee trekking experience. The forest was lush and vibrant, and our knowledgeable guide helped us spot the chimpanzees in their natural habitat. Observing them interact and hearing their calls was a truly magical experience that left me with a deep appreciation for these incredible primates.
The final leg of the trip took us to the Rwenzori Mountains for a full-day hike. Known as the “Mountains of the Moon,” this trek through dense forests, past rushing streams, and towards alpine vegetation was both challenging and rewarding. The views of snow-capped peaks and lush jungle were surreal.
From start to finish, Heart of Africa Adventure provided a seamless experience with thoughtful planning, excellent accommodations, delicious food, and expert guides. I felt safe and well cared for throughout the journey, and each stop offered something unique. If you're looking for an immersive African adventure that combines wildlife, trekking, and stunning landscapes, I highly recommend Ibra and his company. Uganda’s beauty and Heart of Africa Adventure’s exceptional service made this trip truly extraordinary.

Professional and experienced group, treated us like family.
Just left Tanzania, first time in Africa, first time Safari. My girlfriend (30) and I (33) had the most amazing time with Suricata Safari. Our guide was Damian and chef was Salim, I highly recommend them. Damian was super cool and knowledgeable, he was highly experienced in navigating the parks, and seemed to have the upper hand on the other Safari Cruisers. You do need a bit of luck in the parks but with Damian it seemed like we were always getting lucky. We saw lions at 4 different occasions at our first day in the Serengeti, along with the rare Seval cat. The 2nd day we were not only able to track down a cheetah but the cheetah was with 3 - 2 week old cubs, the moment was priceless and we were lucky to have Damian to make it happen.
If you want the ultimate camping safari experience, I highly recommend Suricata Safari. Camping isn’t for everyone but my girlfriend and I are used to, and enjoy the ‘man verse wild’ atmosphere. It is a typical tent, they are waterproof! You get the essentials for sleeping. . Pillow, bed mat, sleeping bag. There are nice bathrooms with showers at each camp ground (bring a towel or 2), along with a cooking area and dining area for the 3 meals received everyday.
The food was delicious, our chef Salim cooked a feast for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day for the group of 6. There was no shortage of food and they were very tasty, well balanced meals. Alcohol was available to purchase at each campground if you’re interested in a beverage during sunset or with dinner.
We did 2 days in the Serengeti, 1 day at Ngorongoro Crater, and 1 day at Tarangire Park. They were all beautiful and unique in their own ways. We grouped with 2 other young couples and we all had an amazing time.
We both absolutely want to relive this vacation in the future and will most definitely be using Suricata Safari again. Also I would not want to revisit without Damian and Salim guiding and cooking for us again.
It would be so cool to find a few friends to join us next time, to make our own group of 5 or 6 and spend a few nights in the Serengeti. We saw so much in 2 days (1 night) in the Serengeti but it is such a huge national park, it is impossible to explore the entire park in such little time.
Visit Tanzania Safaris with Suricata! You will not regret it!

Ronny is a good driver, competent, nice and also punctual
He made a lot of effort to always fulfill our wishes. It wasn't our first tour with him. He asked which animals we wanted to see and showed them to us. He knows his way around everywhere and all this at fair prices. We were always satisfied with everything. We would book him again at any time. The car is also ideal for safari. Thank you very much, it was again a great experience.

The most responsive, and timely operator I have dealt with.
I was tasked to plan a tour with different destinations for a group of 10 people from USA who were coming to visit Africa for the very first time. Eric was amazing with ideas and facilitating the whole process from pick up at the airport, to NRB, Mombasa, Nyeri, and back to NRB and drop off at the airport. It was the most painless trip I had. I have used others in the past and had disappointments but not this time. Already planning for next year. The drivers are excellent in PR, skills, patience and very friendly. We enjoyed every bit. They have new trucks and very comfortable. If you don't want disappointments, pallid safaris is the place. Kudos Eric, Francis, Simon, Daniel and Lee.

Safari to Tanzania and visit to Zanzibar
My husband and I went to Zanzibar and on a safari through Makasa Safaris in February. We had wonderful time. Everything was planned perfectly and our tour guides were knowledgeable and professional. The lodges we stayed at were amazing as well. Most importantly, we had the chance to experience this wonderful country with the amazing scenery and wild life.
thank you for making our trip enjoyable

Fuss free and reliable!
Contacted Julian from Knap tours to arrange:
1. Transfer service from Johannesburg to Hazyview
2. Mid noon and evening game drive in Kruger
3. Transfer from Hazyview to Nelspruit Airport
Communication and service was way above and beyond. He ensured to stay connected at all times, and made sure my group was safe in pick ups and arrivals which were all very punctual and friendly people.
Overall quotes were fair and prices were great. He removed all my worries in trying to find all the different operators to satisfy my logistical requirements.
I will highly recommend!
