Amazing experience
5/5

I had a once in a lifetime experience at bwindi national Park trekking gorillas. My company was very professional and insured all the necessities were done. I highly recommend this trek and company. Book early and feel free to forward all your questions and concerns to them.

Abiy tours took care of all of my needs including those I didn’t anticipate
5/5

I had an outstanding experience with Abiy Ethiopia Tours. Abiy did an awesome job managing every detail of my trip. We covered the cultural highlights of Addis Ababa, but the real standouts were the Danakil Depression and Harar. Danakil is like the 'Yellowstone of Ethiopia' but frankly, it blows it away. Sleeping on the side of a volcano and feeding the hyenas in Harar are memories I will keep forever.
What sets Abiy apart is his attention to detail. He took the time to truly understand my specific needs and incorporated everything I asked for—including arranging cots for better sleep, diverse food options, and specific cultural considerations. If you want a guide who is as attentive as he is knowledgeable about Ethiopia’s most rugged terrains, book with Abiy.

Amazing Masai Mara Safari with Bontel Adventures
5/5

Our Masai Mara trip organized by Bontel Adventures was exceptional from start to finish. Everything was well planned, the guide was knowledgeable and friendly, and the game drives were simply unforgettable. We enjoyed seamless logistics, great service, and truly memorable wildlife experiences.

Highly recommend Bontel Adventures for a professional and authentic safari experience.

A wonderful group of people who make your safari experience fabulous!
5/5

I did the 5 days safari with this company. Everything was perfect! From the moment we booked it, Helena was there to assist with anything we needed, and even managed to get train tickets for us. The safari guide was a very kind and experimented person. The cook was great. I definitely recommend taking African Hub Serengeti’s service. It is not just a company, they are wonderful people who will make your safari experience unforgettable.

Unfortunately, we did not get what we were promised: a calculated and cynical move by Knap Tours
1/5

Hi,
It's heartbreaking to share this story, but I feel fellow travelers need to understand how Knap Tour operates - and communicates.

November 2, I was contacted by Knap Tours after I asked for a quote on Safaribookings.com
November 3, I talked to their MD on phone to make sure we were on the same page. He confirmed everything in writing.
November 4, I wired money for the 3day trip with Knap Tours
November 5, the trip, with accomodation was confirmed in writing

So far.... so good. But what was supposed to be a dream trip with my 12 year old daughter turned out to be a nasty surprise as we arrived to the lodge. Our guide received a phonecall 1 hour before we arrived. He said that the lodge was full, there had overbookings and standard procedure was to pass on guests to an Ostrich Farm. We refused as the plan was to stay at the lodge. We were offered another place, turned it down, and offered to be driven back to Cape Town with full reimbursement (6 hours drive... don't think so) and my daughter started crying.

I called the MD and asked what was going on and he told me he'd just been informed about the non existing Luxury Tent at the lodge. I found it all very suspicious.

During this converstation with the MD from Knap Tours, I was offered 10% reimbursement.

We had to stay at the new accomodation but upon arrival to the lodge the day after I talked to the MD and booking manager at the lodge who found it all very odd, so they checked.
Nov 3, Knap Tours asked for a reservation
Nov4, the lodge replied that they had no tents or any accomodation for NYE.

So... Knap Tours sold me something that was not theirs to sell. They lied about the process (the lodge confirmed this and told me they would never refer any guest to the Ostrich Farm) and they knew very well that we could not go back to Cape Town. They made a bet we'd accept it without a fight.

Fortunately the lodge was helpful and let us stay in one of their tents (just had a cancellation) for NYE.

When I asked for the 10% reimbursement once back, the MD was most rude to me and then ignored me and my messages.

So: be aware - these guys promise you things they cannot keep, they bet you are not willing to fight for what you have been promised and they are cynical and most rude.

Stay away from Knap Tours and make sure you chose a serious agency if you do a once-in-a-lifetime- trip

Honestly,

//Jakob

Well-organized safari from start to finish
5/5

Booking our safari with Overland Safaris was a great decision. The booking process was clear and straightforward, with honest advice and quick responses. Everything was well organized on the ground, from timing to logistics, and the guide was experienced and knowledgeable. The safari delivered exactly what was promised, with no stress and no surprises. We would confidently book with them again and recommend them to others.

Great experience!
5/5

Everything went really well. We had to get on multiple boats to reachh the area, since you have to enter with a small boat. We had a great view of the birds. I thought our guide was very knowledgeable and I definitely recomment their company.

unforgettable
4/5

My fiancée and I had an exceptional experience on a four-day Christmas safari in the Masai Mara with Epic Horizons Safaris. Everything was very well organized, and our stay in Zebra Valley was peaceful and unforgettable. Our guide, Lukas, was professional and highly knowledgeable, which made this adventure even more special. I highly recommend Epic Horizons Safaris to anyone wanting to experience a memorable safari.

Fantastic Safari Experience with Steve and Richard Safaris
Jan 2026 • Couples
From the very beginning, the communication during the booking process was great and very prompt, which gave us a lot of confidence. Everything that was promised was fully delivered by Steve, with no disappointments at all.
We did a 1-night Tsavo East safari, and it was perfectly organized. We were assigned a top-notch driver and guide, Hasan, who truly made our game drives fantastic. He was knowledgeable, attentive, and made a real effort to ensure we had the best possible wildlife sightings and overall experience.
Overall, it was a fantastic safari experience with Steve and Richard Safaris, and I would highly recommend them to anyone planning a safari.without doubt.
