South Africa is a beautiful country for a holiday
For wildlife, Kruger Park is highly recommended. Private game drives (such as at Tomo Lodge) are also highly recommended. With an expert guide, you can see the Big Five; and many other animals. You can eat delicious food in South Africa - the prices in restaurants are relatively low. People are generally friendly. However, there are areas that you should not visit as a tourist, because you may become a victim of crime. The use of trains and buses is also not recommended.

Organized and reliable
Solo Traveler 14 Days Kenya - Tanzania Safari. Great from the beginning to the end, they delivered as agreed in their offer. Excellent driver/guide, with a lot of experience and knowledge about Kenya and the fauna. For the Tanzanian part they partnered with an excellent operator. They helped me with everything I needed during the trip. Thank you Daniel (operations manager) and Shaddy (driver/guide).

Kilimanjaro ascent - Lemosho route adventure
Jackson organised for me and my two friends the Kilimanjaro ascent tour on the Lemosho route. He was extremely helpful from the start, friendly and patient with our many questions about the tour and the organisation.
His offer was the best price out of the various operators we researched before choosing. He set up our adventure, picked us up at the airport, introduced us to our chief guide Bony and made us feel immediately welcome and at home. The trek was organised and led by Bony and was an incredible experience. The team put together by Bony was fun, friendly and helpful and made us enjoy greatly not just the mountain but our time with them too. The night of the final ascent, reaching Uhuru peak with our guides and then coming down to base camp to find the rest of the team waiting to celebrate with us was an experience I will treasure forever.

Amazing safari
We had an amazing tour with our rider Juma who was extremely helful, skilled and patient. He was not only our driver but also our guide, very prepared about animals and very anke to spot them. We were lucky enough to be alone on the jeep even though we did non book a private tour because we went on June which is low season. Temperature was perfect, no insects, we saw a lot of animals, including a Leopard and thanks to Juma Who brought us straightly in the right place even Lions. Every lodge was beautiful and we even had the walking safari and the night safari. It was our first Safari trip so we did not know we would have liked it so much otherwise we would have booked for much more days. The car was comfortable and they gifted us a bottle of water. One thing to keep in mind: you will be having long journeys in the jeep between the lodges.

Amazing experience, highly knowledgeable and patient
BG went above and beyond to allow enough time and to give us the best chance to see the animals we wanted to see. Highly recommended!
Price comparison for what we wanted, was the best and service terrific
After going with a different company for what turned out to be a terrific week long safari, I comparison shopped for this one day Nairobi three stop tour, and Cruzeiro won out. Our excellent and knowledgeable driver picked us up from our hotel promptly, took us as planned to the Sheldrick Wildlife Sanctuary, Kazuri Beads and Giraffe Sanctuary, all pretty close to one another near Nairobi, never rushing us but also offering additional in-depth information at the Giraffe sanctuary, All in all, I'd definitely recommend them as would my 16 year old granddaughter who was with me.

Trip of a Lifetime!
We did a 10-day safari in Uganda with Kajie Safaris, and it was an absolutely incredible experience. Our guides, Simon & Simon (we had two cars for 9 people) made every aspect of the trip amazing. Seeing the mountain gorillas had long been a bucket-list item, and did not disappoint- but we were also blown away by every other part of the trip as well! Chimpanzee tracking, game drives, seeing the big 5 - everything was beyond our expectations. The lodges were lovely. Our group was mostly vegan/vegetarian and Kajie made sure we had good food options everywhere we went. Ronald answered all our questions before the trip and helped us get together everything we needed to arrive, and once there Simon & Simon made the trip seamless. I can't imagine having done this trip with another group and would whole-heartedly recommend Kajie Safaris!

Caren, the face of Nashibe, was attentive, thorough and prompt, leading to a superb experience
It was a trip of a lifetime for my 16 year old granddaughter and myself. The week long safari which took us to 4 different destinations and involved a lot of driving, was worth every pothole en route and Kenyan shilling. Once I finished launching my endless planning questions at Caren, which she patiently answered, the details, including wonderful accommodation (I researched and she booked) and daily program was executed beautifully. As well, despite delay and being incommunicado while flying there, Caren went out of her way to fetch us from the airport as promised. There were plenty of game drives which we never tired of, an eye opening visit to a genuine Masai village (I had feared an artificial touristy set up) and even short but needed free time in between. So planning as far as time management, was well done. I had tried to arrange for a group trip but at the last minute the others, whoever they were, cancelled and in the end we concluded a private trip was advantageous.
Our driver, Charles, was a careful driver and even managed to fix the vehicle when it broke down in the middle of nowhere. We very much appreciated both these skills. I would not however, describe him as a guide in terms of depth of knowledge and ability or willingness to communicate same.
I would have no trouble in recommending Nashibe, but emphasize the importance of planning in advance, and then sitting back and just enjoying when you set out.
