Experience beyond all expectations!
Our 4 day safari with Safari Soul went well beyond all my expectations! So happy we chose to go with Safari Soul. Angel swiftly prepared a proposal for our day which included a pick up from our hotel in Zanzibar and a flight to Serengeti, via Arusha. We were then dropped off at Arusha airport on day four, flown back to Zanzibar and returned to our hotel.
We spent two days and nights in Serengeti, before driving to Negorgoro crater. We then finished our safari with a drive through Tarangire national park.
Our driver and tour guide, Abdullah, made sure we had the adventure of a lifetime by finding so many animals for us to see, many of them very close up. We saw all the big five (four of them on day one!) and countless other animals. We saw leopards, cheetahs, lions, hyenas, jackals, warthogs (Pumba!), elephants, buffalos, all kinds af antelopes, hippos, a tiny crocodile, ostriches and various other birds, and last but not least endless numbers of zebras and wildebeests on a big migration. Seeing two male lions feasting on a freshly caught buffalo, or mother and daughter cheetahs devoting their prey was something I’ll never forget!
Waking up to an elephant in front of our camp was the highlight.

Professional and punctual
We did a one day game tour of TARAGARINE park with DICKSON. He was wonderful, very knowledgeable, extremely punctual, and very accommodating. We had a wonderful time. The lunch he provided was wonderful and and he was able to accommodate our vegetarian lifestyle which we really appreciated even went out of his way and drove us to the airport, which was in one hour detour. Great service. I highly recommend the day trip.

Perfect Family Safari Wildlife, Culture & Happy Kids Everywhere.
This 12 day private tour with the family (4 of us + 2 kids) is the perfect family adventure! 7 Wonders Safaris has everything planned with children in mind.
Start in Amboseli - Children are excited to see the elephant herd in front of Mount Kilimanjaro. Excitement of lion pride, cheetah hunt, and migration in game drive at Masai Mara. Guide Joseph played an animal tracking game for children, teaching them to spot themselves with binoculars. One morning the hot air balloon ride - the children screamed and flew! Visiting Maasai village in the evening - they danced with the children, told stories - this was the highlight. Descended to Ngorongoro Crater and saw black rhino, elephant, lion – had a picnic lunch on the crater floor. Special activities for kids at each lodge, fun options for food. Wi-Fi in the car, charging, and private space – no compromise.
Wildlife, luxury, and culture all came together on this trip. The kids are still talking about it! A heartfelt thank you to 7 Wonders.

They saved me lots of time & effort in trip planning, and my family had a wonderful trip to Africa!
As a person who never uses travel agents, I turned to Africa Welcome Safaris as I found myself somewhat overwhelmed by the prospect of planning a trip to Africa on my own from the USA with no help and a lot of logistical hurdles going to places I had never been before. So following Fodors recommendation, I reached out to Africa Welcome Safaris, and they gave me a great proposed itinerary for the places I wanted to go within a price range that worked for me. This saved me lots of time and effort, and they answered all the questions that I asked during the planning process. They also arranged all Africa airplane transit (of which there was a lot) and tour guides for my family in advance, and everything went according to plan on the trip itself! We loved all of the places we stayed, including the Kapama River Lodge private game reserve next to Kruger and the Victoria Falls Safari Club, which were just delightful and also had delicious food! Overall, we had an amazing trip to South Africa and Zimbabwe, and I am very happy that I used Africa Welcome Safaris and highly recommend them! They definitely made it easier to plan this major trip.

Made our dreams come true - could not recommend more highly!
My husband and I spent just over 3 weeks with Gorilla O'Clock through Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania. From the get go when we were planning our itinerary, Paul was super helpful and suggested some excellent ideas when the only thing we knew we wanted to do was Chimp and Gorilla trekking! My husband and I were very time poor so the fact Paul could suggest such an excellent itinerary was wonderful. Everyone that we spoke with (whether accounts, reps, guides!) were all so lovely and friendly.
From the very start of our trip we felt in such good hands. Khalif was our guide for Uganda and he was super knowledgeable about the various areas, and then about the animals we would see on safari. This was true about Joseph (in Kenya) and Abuu (in Tanzania).
We were very lucky with our sightings and got to see so many different animals.
We stayed at a variety of accommodation types, from smaller camps to bigger lodges and they were all great, we struggled to pick a favourite. Little Zebra Camp in Maasai Mara was a real highlight though!
All I can say is if you won't regret going with Gorilla O'Clock. This trip was truly a dream.
