Amazing Safari Experience in Tarangire
The safari in Tarangire National Park was well organized, and everything ran smoothly throughout the day. Our driver-guide was very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. He was attentive without being intrusive, did a great job spotting wildlife and positioning the vehicle for good views, and also reminded us to stay calm and keep our voices low to avoid disturbing the animals.
Lunch was another highlight; the use of stainless steel lunch boxes and reusable utensils helped reduce unnecessary waste, which I really appreciated. They even provided coffee, which was a nice touch.
We were fortunate to see a variety of animals, including elephants, giraffes, and even lions resting in trees, which was one of the highlights of the trip. The pace of the tour felt comfortable, with enough time to enjoy the surroundings without feeling rushed.
As a first-time safari experience, it felt very worthwhile.

High quality, experience led operator!
We had a great experience on the 7-Day Masai Mara & Great Rift Valley safari with Mezznan Tours & Travel. Communication from start was clear and timely, everything was well organized throughout the trip.
Our driver-guide, Sam, was professional, knowledgeable, and very patient with our family, making the game drives both enjoyable and informative. The itinerary was well paced, and the accommodation choices were excellent.
Overall, the tour ran smoothly and it was a memorable experience for our family. We would definitely recommend them.

Incredible
This safari experience was absolutely incredible and beyond all my expectations—it was truly outstanding from start to finish!
My driver Medard delivered phenomenal service the entire time. He drove incredibly safely, smoothly and steadily at all times, and always put my safety as his absolute top priority. Every decision he made was for the wellbeing and security of my trip, making me feel calm, protected and comfortable throughout the whole adventure.
Thanks to his amazing professional experience and sharp eye for wildlife, I got to witness so many stunning wild animals in their natural habitat. I was so lucky to see gorillas, bush babies and plenty of other beautiful exotic creatures up close.
This is hands down the best safari experience I have ever had. Everything was perfect, well arranged and absolutely magical. I highly recommend Mudards and this wonderful safari tour to every traveler!

Alfred the guide was excellent! He is highly experienced, deeply knowledgeable, and patience! best!
Our entire family went on safari, and from the very first moment, we fell in love with our guide, Alfred. With his incredible eye for detail and 15 years of rich experience, he knew exactly where to go so we could spot every animal we hoped to see. He could identify wildlife from huge distances!
Alfred was patient with every single question and explained everything in great detail. He was attentive to our every request and made us feel like our trip was the most important thing in the world. He truly turned our journey to Tanzania into an unforgettable experience! We highly recommend him for anyone looking for a fun, professional, and top-tier safar. The best!!!!!

Dixon was everything and more for us, the energy and motivation never dipped. We love him!
The Engagi safari tour was like no other, we were picked up and driven to the jungle which was a long drive but due to Dixon and his team it felt short and full of life. I would like to take the chance to advise people who are considering taking the tour to make sure you have the correct equipment (golves, proper footwear, long sleeves) as these are essentials but the team at Engagi will also have you covered and help you along the way! The experience was a once in the lifetime, I'll never forget it for the rest of my life - Thank you Engagi.

UNFORGETTABLE ADVENTURE
Our safari Serengeti landmark tours was an absolutely fantastic, once in a lifetime experience! From the seamless planning with Raymond to the incredible game drive with our knowledge guide Robart everything was pretty.
We saw the big five including countless lions and elephants, and enjoyed delicious, fresh hot lunch in the bush.

Great guys, great service, great safari
My colleague recommended this company. We quickly reached an agreement with the company and sorted out all the details. They were quite flexible, offering various accommodation options, vehicles, and safari formats (private or group). The car was comfortable, and the driver and guide were very friendly and shared their safari experiences. Even the smallest of our requests were fulfilled. They always communicated with other colleagues and knew where the animals were. We saw every possible animal, even a leopard.

Amazing one day safari experience.
Our time was limited staying in Johannesburg for only 4 days after a business trip to Eswatini, so we wanted to make the most of our time there. We were picked up at approx. 5.45am from the hotel and the mini-bus was fine, comfy and clean. Our driver was really friendly and knowledgeable and told us about what to expect and pointed out places of interest along the way to Pilanesberg. We had a comfort stop and there was an opportunity to buy refreshments.
Once at Pilanesberg, after a few administrative checks, we were met by our safari guide Petrus ( I believe his name was) and we were quickly on the road. He pointed out animals and names of plants and birds, he was very knowledgeable and friendly and very witty.
To name what I can remember, we saw; elephants, giraffe, rhinos, hippos (in the far distance in the lake), a crocodile, a leopard (just caught sight of the back of it), zebras, impala, toilet seat deer thing which I can't remember the name of and loads of birds and other smaller deer type animals. So out of the big 5 we saw 3 - which ain't bad. The lions were there but the grass was too long for us to see them (we know this because the rangers had seen them earlier in the day).
The chase to see the leopard was my favourite part - as we were in a different part of the game reserve when news of a sighting came through - I loved that.
This experience has made me want to experience a full safari holiday. I will definitely visit South Africa again in the future given the opportunity and I 100% recommend Safari Bookings and Mo-Africa. Petrus was fabulous and the communication with Safari Bookings was brilliant.

Review about South Africa by Debbie Caine
We saw loads of wildlife in just one day, so if we had had longer there, I'm sure we would have seen even more.

Ben was awesome!! He totally knew where to go and what to do. Wonderful!
The tour was absolutely positively amazing! Brenda did a super job of listening to our requests about what we wanted to do. The Safari was absolutely amazing, Ben really really knew his stuff and knew where to take us and where to find the animals. We saw the big five and then some! I got amazing pictures which I will hopefully have a chance to Post soon. My only complaint is that I am having difficulty deciding which ones I want to enlarge and frame, there are so many great ones! And then we did a cultural tour which was beyond expectations. And we got to meet some of the local people which was a highlight. The trip was really truly once in a lifetime, and I have all wonderful wonderful things to say about Brenda and our guide Ben and Tanzania choice safaris! Thank you, thank you! :-)
