Name said it all......... Smiley
Our South Africa safari with Elephant Herd Tours & Safaris was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. From the very first communication, their team was incredibly responsive, professional, and informative. They answered all our questions promptly and provided helpful guidance that made planning our trip effortless.
Service throughout the tour was top-notch. The guides were not only knowledgeable and experienced but also genuinely passionate about the wildlife and environment. Their ability to track animals and explain their behaviors added so much depth to the experience. We felt safe, looked after, and constantly impressed by how smoothly everything was organized.
Value for money was outstanding. Considering the level of personal attention, the quality of accommodation, and the richness of the safari experience, it was well worth every cent. There were no hidden costs, and every detail was thoughtfully included.
When it comes to reliability, Elephant Herd delivered on every promise. Pick-ups were punctual, the itinerary was followed precisely, and all logistics were handled seamlessly. We never had to worry about anything—just sit back and enjoy the adventure.
As for the tour itself—absolutely unforgettable. We saw the Big Five (and so much more!), explored beautiful landscapes, and experienced the thrill of being up close with nature. Each game drive offered something new and exciting, and the guides made sure every moment was special.
If you're considering a safari in South Africa, I can’t recommend Elephant Herd Tours & Safaris highly enough. They truly went above and beyond to create a once-in-a-lifetime experience

Do it
It’s not easy to get to, but once you’re there, you’ll be glad you came. I took a night safari, a full day safari in Kruger National Park, a short tour in Johannesburg, and a few days in Cape Town. I could easily have spent more time in each location. I stayed in a camp (MoSafai), and I enjoyed that. Not luxurious by any means, but well organized with everything in the tent connected to a private bathroom with shower and hot water.

The best tour operator to select for Kenya
It started with a WhatsApp ping to Christine who is so helpful and accomodating to the asks. After multiple conversations where she clarified all doubts, we did the bookings.
She helped tremendously to customise and change the tour according to our needs. It almost felt we had a friend in Kenya doing all the bookings and logistics for us.
When we arrived in Kenya, she along with the safari guide Eli came to receive us. That was definitely not expected and very kind of her.
The tour itself was awesome without a single glitch. All resorts were booked well in advance, all the rides and boating was booked perfectly. It was executed well.
The tour guide and driver Eli was superb! Not only did he drive us long distances without a problem, he also knew the safari routes extremely well. It was due to his tracking and driving that we saw numerous big cats. He was very accomodating to our needs, whether we wanted longer safaris or shorter ones, he managed all with a wide smile. Loved having him accompany us through the expanse of Kenya.
Overall I will 100% recommend Donwel Tours if you are in Kenya.

Perfect safari adventure
Donwel tours and travels made a perfect plan for our trip to Kenya. We were a little apprehensive at first when we heard that we might get some bad weather which could spoil our trip due to “wet season”, but glad we had connected with Christine who assured us that it would not. She ensured a smooth trip even though we had a toddler with us and a vegetarian, not even a hiccup. All accomodations chosen were comfortable and clean as well as safe and secure. Eli was our guide and we have a lot of gratitude towards him for showing us around through the parks tirelessly. His knowledge of the area and animals is outstanding. We all went back with smiling faces and happy memories.
