Amazing 5-Day Safari Experience with a Fun and Knowledgeable Guide
We had an unforgettable 5-day safari with Serengeti Morning Dew Safari covering Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. Everything was well organized from the beginning, and the experience exceeded our expectations.
The parks were all unique and beautiful. In Tarangire we saw many elephants and enjoyed the peaceful scenery. Serengeti was incredible with endless wildlife and stunning landscapes, while Ngorongoro Crater gave us the chance to see many animals up close in one day.
A special thanks to our guide, Bartolomeo, who made the trip even more enjoyable. He was very fun, friendly, and knowledgeable about the animals, nature, and local culture. He always made sure we were comfortable and worked hard to give us the best wildlife viewing opportunities. His positive energy made every day exciting.
The accommodation, food, and transportation were all good, and the safari vehicle was comfortable for long drives inside the parks.
Overall, this was a wonderful safari experience, and we would highly recommend Serengeti Morning Dew Safari to anyone visiting Tanzania.

Amazing
We had such a great day at the safari with Danford. He was doing the most to make sure we could see all the animals as much as possible! We saw a lion, giraffes, zebras, herd of elephants and even a leopard which is so rare at this time too!
So very grateful for this opportunity and everyone was so lovely! Lunch was amazing too! Thank you again!

Excellent service
We just finished an 8-day private tour with Liyu tours and had an amazing time. We contacted a few tour companies based on some reviews we saw and decided on going with Liyu Tours because Yhun helped us create our own itinerary by combining a few trips and he was always quick to respond to any of our requests or questions. Yhun made amazing plans and took care of everything based upon our requests, including all hotel bookings and airport transfers in addition to the tours in each place. We didn't have to worry about anything and the only extra costs were lunch/dinner, souvenirs and tips.
During our trip we visited Addis Ababa, Harar, Awash, Debre Libanos and Wanchi. We loved all the places but the highlight of the trip was probably feeding the hyenas in Harar.
We were 3 women travelling together and felt extremely safe the entire time. The guides and drivers provided by Liyu Tours were all great. Our trip took place during the current fuel crisis and as a result some adjustments had to be made to our original plan. Despite the challenging situation Yhun delivered on everything that had been promised and we were able to visit all the places we had planned. How the unexpected is handled is what truly makes for a great experience and Liyu Tours handled everything perfectly and we felt we were in great hands the entire trip.
We are already thinking about visiting Ethiopia again in the future to see the places we didn't have time to visit this time and when we do we will definitely be contacting Yhun at Liyu Tours again!

Excellent hospitality
Hoyo Hoyo safari lodge has exceptional hospitality and the staff are extremely friendly, knowledgeable and aim to please!
The experience was amazing and trip of a lifetime. The rooms are as seen on website! So cool!
The only negative I have to say is the smell in the rooms (musty smell) needs to be addressed! I’m not sure if it’s due to all the rain recently or if that is the way they are due to the bamboo walls!

excellent guides and well-organized trekking arrangements
My friends and I had an unforgettable experience on the 4 Day Trekking Simien Mountains National Park Tour with Danakil Depression Tours.
The trekking routes were absolutely breathtaking, with dramatic mountain cliffs, valleys, and panoramic views everywhere we looked. Every day brought a new adventure, and we loved spotting wildlife like the famous Gelada baboons along the trails.
Camping and hiking together in such an incredible environment created memories we will never forget.

Amazing 🤩
We had an absolutely amazing 3 days / 2 nights Maasai Mara safari arranged by Mara Wanderlust. A special thank you to Naiomi, who planned everything so smoothly from start to finish. She was extremely helpful, responsive, and made the entire experience stress-free and memorable.
Our driver Felix, did a wonderful job throughout the full day game drive. His knowledge, patience, and sharp eye for spotting wildlife made our safari truly unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Kathi was responsive, organized, and dedicated to making our honeymoon incredible!
Our honeymoon with African Welcome Safaris was amazing. We were referred to Kathi by friends who raved about their trip, and we were not disappointed! We started in Cape Town and the winelands (Babylonstoren) and closed out with a safari in Kruger. Everything was incredible and extremely well-organized by Kathi - the itinerary was well-planned and clear, and we didn't have to worry at all about transportation or what was next, while also having enough time at each place to not feel rushed. If we tried planning this ourselves it probably would have been more expensive and very complicated, so we can't recommend Kathi and African Welcome Safaris enough!!

Perfect in Every Way!
Anya, at Pembery Tours, planned a three week holiday in South Africa. From our initial contact, Anya listened carefully to our desires and dreams for this once-in-lifetime tour. Since we had never visited SA or done a safari before, we had a ton of questions and were quite daunted by the process. Anya’s experience touring herself, as well as years of planning for others, cut through the confusion easily and we were soon presented with some amazing tour options. And these weren’t cookie cutter tours, but ones that included some less common options, especially Swartland, a newer and less visited wine region that my husband had been reading about. Anya reached out to wineries that don’t often accept visitors and other desired experiences, such as a visit with some specialized nonprofits in Cape Town - every request we made was met with a helpful and enthusiastic response. We loved EVERYTHING about our trip and, upon reflection since we have been home, would not change a thing. The itinerary, the two safaris, the hotels, the flights, the restaurant recommendations…. all top-notch. I could go on and on… A final comment - Pembery works with great partners. Our many drivers and guides were so knowledgeable, helpful, kind, and fun. We learned so much from each of them and and they made each day memorable and rich. We left SA considering them as friends. If you are like us, wanting a memorable experience but confused about how to make it happen, or even if you have done this before but want some expert advice, contact Anya. Anya and Pembery tours are the Gold Standard of African travel!
