Alex was informative, responsive, and enthusiastic about making sure we had a great experience!
We had a great experience traveling to the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli with Jocky Tours. From booking to going on our Safari, the team was incredibly responsive and helpful when we had questions. The trip was truly an unforgettable experience that good luck and our guide, Alex, helped create with his expertise on the animals and where to find them in the reserves. We stayed in some very nice lodges with great amenities that allowed us to relax after a long day traveling or going on game drives. Overall, I'd highly recommend Jocky Tours and Safaris and would contact this company again if I were to make plans for another safari!

Top notch from start to finish
As first-time travelers to South Africa and Cape Town, Go Town Down provided a "no worries" travel experience. Excellent personalized service, great accommodations and amazing food. Because Table Mountain can be fogged in, our tour guide, Tony, monitored the conditions and was able to get us up on a beautiful clear afternoon. The boutique hotel, Belle Maroc, was great, staff felt like family and food was wonderful. We had 3 full days in Cape Town which was perfect, plus the pick-up and drop off at the airport made it worry free. Absolutely recommend Go Touch Down.
Petras dream to be in Uganda
We have to say thank you for this trip! It was my dream since I was a little girl to visit Uganda and of course to see the Gorillas in nature. We picked up by Sam and he was 12 days our private guide, driver and helpful hand.
All lodges and people we met were so friendly and we wouldn't miss every time we spend there. We will come back to visit Uganda again.
My special experience was the last big tour to the Gorillas.....hard work for myself and I will never forget in my lifetime.

Trustworthy, committed and reliable tour operator
We've climbed in October 2024 with Zanzi trekking and safari's in Arusha. The crew is very committed to get you to the top. Everything is in done in order so that you'll make it, that made us a bit emotional at the end of the trip as well (in a positive way). The guides George and Lazaro are experienced guides, who behave professionally. We would easily trust our lives to them again.
Don't forget to ask/request a packing list beforehand, if they haven't sent it to you yet when you booked a trekking.

Isaac was a fabulous guide and made our safari one of the best experts my life. Beyond 5 stars
Africa has many hidden gems. Authentic Africa Safaris created a custom adventure that surpassed my wildest dreams. From trekking with gorillas and chimps, to going down the Nile seeing a waterfall and getting chased by hippos. It was epic! If you want a trip to make your dream of Africa come true, Authentic Safaris will make it happen

Education, excitement, and full-on exhilaration, all in one package.
Thale Kolhus put together a great lodging package. Each lodge was unique to the park's varied areas. She then matched us up with knowledgeable drivers who educated us on not only the wildlife and their habitat but also an inside on the people of South Africa and points of interest. Thale added the Moholoholo Rehab Center to help raise awareness of how endangered these animals are. I would not change a thing and would recommend Wild Planet Safari to anyone, and any family looking for a trip of a lifetime.

Unforgettable experience - excellent guide
Me and my partner had the pleasure of going on a six-day private safari with Destiny Explorers at the beginning of September, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! From start to finish, the organization and attention to detail were exceptional. We visited stunning locations including Tarangire National Park, Lake Natron, the northern Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater. Each stop was breathtaking and offered unique wildlife encounters. The itinerary was well-balanced, giving us ample time for game drives while also allowing for moments of relaxation.
Our guide, Gilbert was always friendly and fun, making the journey even more enjoyable. He is an impeccable driver, ensuring that we always felt safe on the roads. He is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about wildlife and ecosystems, and we were amazed by the incredible variety of mammals, reptiles and birds we spotted. He provided fascinating explanations about each species and it was great to learn so much about the local ecosystem. Gilbert made sure we got the best views of the Big Five and wildebeests migration at Mara River, sharing insights about the animals and their behaviors. His passion for nature is evident and really enhanced our experience.
Issa, the company manager, was helpful in planning our itinerary and selecting accommodations that suited our mid-range budget. He was also flexible and made a small adjustment to our itinerary during the safari, allowing us to visit Olduvai Gorge and its museum, which was a highlight for us.
The accommodations provided by Destiny Explorers were comfortable and offered stunning views of the surrounding landscapes. Each location was well-chosen, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the beauty of Tanzania. The food throughout the trip was delicious and catered to our dietary preferences, which was a nice touch.
We chose Destiny Explorers mainly because they are a local Tanzanian company, and we believe it's important to support local businesses in our travel choices. The dedication and commitment to providing a great experience were evident in every aspect of our safari.
Overall, we highly recommend Destiny Explorers for anyone looking to explore the incredible wildlife and landscapes of Tanzania. A special thank you to Gilbert for making this experience so memorable; your kindness, peaceful nature, expertise, and driving skills made all the difference. This trip exceeded our expectations, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that everyone should have at least once!

Robert was professional, kind, and enthusiastic. I will definitely call on his services again!
I highly recommend anyone to have a ride or Safari with Robert. His knowledge and expertise is beyond compare. He is polite, well spoken, and funny. He is an excellent driver and we felt very safe with him. We enjoyed our time in his van and knew we were in good hands. It was great to feel so comfortable and well cared for when we were so far away from home. I will definitely call upon him for transfers and Safari the next time I’m in Kenya! I highly recommend you do the same!
