Best safari ever!
Excellent, extensive and friendly communication before, during and after safari. Flexible in customizing the itinerary, although that was hardly needed since the route and parks suggested as well as the accommodations suggested were perfect for us! Accommodations are all in the best location, luxurious and comfortable. Transportation is very good, clean, spacious, comfortable and well-maintained. Service and guide are excellent! Aside from the trip being very well organized they also add value with thoughtful personal touches, like a personalized bottle of wine for our anniversary and a fridge in the car with our favourite drinks. No surprises. A lot of value for your money, so we can highly recommend!

Amazing experience with Yasin
We had an amazing experience. 100% recommended. Our guide, Yasin, picked us in our hotel in Nairobi, and took us directly to the Masai Mara after a brief stop for lunch on the road. Even after arriving in the afternoon, Yasin was able to show us 4 of the Big 5, including an incredible close look of a Leopard. And we were there for just 4h. The Next day, we started much earlier in the morning, and we got to see a female cheetah with 5 newly born cubs. That same day, we got to see another one more closely to the point It walked Next to our car. Also, later on, we had the amazing experience of looking, in two different times, lions in action trying to hunt. Overall, we got to see all the Big 5 very closely, and many more species. Regarding Yasin, he has been an amazing guide for us, explaining in details all of our questions, always looking for the better atttaction, and always tacking care of us. If you have the option of choosing, I would definetly recommend him.

Amazing safari! Everything I wanted and so much more!
We recently got back from an 11 day safari of Kenya and Tanzania. Specifically, we did the Masai Mara, Central serengeti, ngorongoro crater and tarangire parks. I researched many companies but chose Africa Safari Classics and am so I glad I did! Maurice, who organized the safari was outstanding in creating an amazing itinerary and executing it seamlessly. He was extremely responsive to all my questions throughout the process. We specifically asked for all tented camps because we wanted to be completely immersed in the nature and they were amazing! And the food, wow! We flew between parks for Masai mara and Central serengeti and Maurice handled all the logistics and always had someone with us for all transfers. About our guide. I can not say enough about Authuman our guide. He made our trip! His 27 years of experience really showed. We saw everything! I mean everything! He knew where to find the animals and always positioned us perfectly. So many times, it was just our jeep looking at lions or elephants or rhinos. Right in front of us, no need for the telephoto lens. Any question I had, he knew. Do yourself a massive favor and ask for him if you book a safari with this company. I can and have highly recommended this company to friends and family already. Just go, you will l love it!

An unforgettable, 10/10 trip that exceeded every expectation
Let me start by appreciating you all for the effort you put in to make our trip such a memorable one. The pick-ups were right on time and the drivers were so friendly, helpful and patient with us. We enjoyed every tourist sight and everything went so smoothly. Not to forget how patient they were with us despite our constant lateness😊
Thank you so much, everyone!
@Joyce thank you so much, dear for organizing such a lovely vacation for us, especially despite our last-minute booking. Thank you also for being so patient, understanding and available throughout. We actually started planning this trip back in April, and despite the several cancellations along the way, you never gave up on us. You kept picking our calls and helping us through everything. We truly appreciate you. ❤️
Nice time, We truly enjoyed ourselves and hope to send many more bookings your way. ✈️🥰

Organized
Candis curated a wonderful experience for us that started with four nights in Cape Town, SA. A driver was waiting for us at the airport despite a delayed arrival. We spent two days visiting wineries and a third exploring the city.
The next stop was Kruger National Park and the Hoyo Hoyo lodge which consisted of only six huts and twelve guests. Despite arriving in a chilly rain, the welcome was warm. Over three days, we completed six game drives and saw four of the big five. The staff was attentive, the food was beautifully presented and the property was very clean. The only negative is that the property is a bit dated and needs a refresh. Our guide, Morna, deserves a big thanks!
We then departed Kruger and flew to J-burg for a one night layover. We stayed at a charming property, the African Rock Hotel. The hotel is a renovated home in a gated community. It was an ideal selection for a one night layover.
The following morning, we flew to Victoria Falls for a three night stay at the Wallow Lodge, a new facility in a private game reserve. The accommodations were beautiful and very comfortable. Our only minor complaint is that we did not always enjoy the food offerings. Behki was our primary host and guide for the three days. He was outstanding and a pleasure to be with. In addition to visiting the Falls and touring the private game reserve, we did take the one day tour to Chobe National Park in Botswana which was another great recommendation from Candis.
We will be going back to Africa again and will certainly work with Candis and Safari.com. We had great comfort as the drivers were on time, the hotel and lodge reservations were secured, and we always felt comfortable.

Fantastic
Safari was excellent! Airport pick up and drop off were smooth. We saw all of the big five. The lodgings that Meijo arranged were incredible with Maasai warriors standing guard. When I walked out the front door Zebra were grazing two meters away.
I’m sure that all of the guides are good but Abdul was very helpful and knowledgeable. He knew all of the spots to find hard to find animals like cheetah and leopard so request him as your guide.

An Amazing Safari Experience – Highly Recommended!
Everything was perfectly organized from the very beginning, starting with a smooth and punctual pickup. After Ivan explained everything to us, we set off on the really long journey to the national park.
Even though the long drives must have been exhausting for him as well, Ivan was always in a great mood, friendly, and helpful whenever we needed anything. We really appreciated his positive attitude and dedication throughout the entire trip.
The game drives in the park were fantastic! We were lucky with the weather and, despite travelling during the rainy season, we didn't get any rain at all. We saw so many amazing animals and had some truly unforgettable experiences.
The food was excellent throughout the trip, and the restaurants were always well chosen. Everything was well organized, and we felt well taken care of from start to finish.
All in all, we can highly recommend this safari! Just be aware that getting from Kampala to the national park involves spending a LOT of time in the car, so be prepared for some long and tiring drives. But it's absolutely worth it!
Great experience, amazing wildlife, excellent food, and a fantastic guide. Definitely worth the money!

Organized to perfection
We were a bit anxious about booking our Safari through an online agency, however, Safari.com turned out to be an excellent choice. They helped organize every step of our trip to South Africa. Everything went off as planned. The resort we stayed at was fabulous. All our connections went smoothly. Safari.com was easy to communicate with and I would highly recommend you using them to plan your trip.

It was the best adventure that we ever had!
What an adventure! Our safari guide, Elisante, was incredible. We always felt comfortable, and our wishes were always accommodated. We saw all the animals. Communication with the safari office was excellent. We recommend Serengeti Green Tanzania 100%.
