An incredible experience & trusted travel company!
Priyal and her team organised our trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar in November 2024 for our family - 4 elderly, 2 children and my husband & I.
From get-go, Priyal was extremely proactive, organised & accommodating -- proactive in terms of giving us multiple options & trusted advice; organised in terms of quick turnaround times for requested changes, options etc and accommodating in terms of being very understanding about unplanned changes at our end and doing her best to accommodate for them.
The trip was very well planned and barring a few very minor improvements, overall the service, logistics, people, accommodation, safari etc was OUTSTANDING!
A special shout-out to her and her team for working very hard to help us manage the logistics for an unplanned medical emergency at our end. For a situation, where any other travel company would have washed their hands off the problem, Priyal not only understood and empathised with our challenge, but also went to great lengths to recover some funds with their vendors. This further added confidence, trust and genuine appreciation for Priyal.
While I dealt exclusively with priyal for my trip, I do know her team at SVAI was with her every step to help plan, organise and adjust for our trip.
If you are looking for an ORGANISED, EFFICIENT, ACCOMODATING and most importantly TRUSTED partner to plan your trip to Tanzania area, I would blindly recommend Priyal and her team at SVAI.

Simon is great!
Simon was a great safari guide. He was knowledgeable and friendly. While the itinerary I booked got a little messed up and I was with different groups each day, Simon more than made up for it. In general, the camping safari was good value.

The team at Wildest Adventures is highly professional and well versed in the regional tourism
I found that Wildmist Adventures run a wide variety of insightful and entertaining tours around the East African region, particularly in Uganda.
Bruce the chief guides rock too! He was able to arrange very exciting activities and excursions off-the-beaten-track and their commitment to the local environment and community was incredible. I always have an incredible joyous time during my tour in Uganda.

Excellent communication and provided a brilliant safari for us
The planning stage was easy and communication was great throughout the process. We had a brilliant safari with Christine and Julius and it was just as expected in terms of the animal sightings. We went in Feb and it wasn't too busy in the park and plenty of young animals around. The accommodation arranged for us was wonderful - we loved our time with Arina! Very professional and worth every dollar!

If you’re hesitant, just email or call them. They are 100% legit, and the tour is beyond expectation
I found them in a Google search. They didn’t have a lot of reviews and information. As they gave me and my girlfriend an excellent time in Namibia, where we (from Hong Kong) spent 5 days there and had a customized tour (Average 6 hours of driving per day), I would like to assure you that their service is exceptional and they just nailed everything.
Their before-the-trip service and planning were much better than I expected. The communication was transparent and straightforward, their proposal and quote for the private tour are the best compared with other service providers. They are responsive to changes and accommodate our needs.
Luke our guide is very helpful and with good vibes. He took us to additional sites which we didn’t request, and we had a good time watching sunsets and other animals. He speaks perfect English and there’s no problem with communication. One thing that we really appreciate is he has done a fantastic job of understanding our exexpectation. We would like to visit a local market in Windhoek last minute, and he delivered that. It shows his professionalism and the agency’s quality. Not to mention the quote from them is quite competitive.
It looks like a marketing material but it is not. I spent 5-6 days just to find a good and trustworthy agency to work with. If you read all of this, just shoot them a message and they will handle it swiftly. I just hope that my feedback can save you hundred minutes of research, and have a wonderful trip with them.
Thanks for all the preparation, that's a 100 score trip for me, and I'm out.

Best Safari tour ever
Our group of 7 people did a 3 day, 2 night safari in Southern Serengeti. We flew into Arusha where our tour guide/ driver met us at the airport. We were greeted with nice cool water when we got to our Jeep. The scenic drive from Arusha into Serengeti was eye opening seeing all the locals of Arusha working on their farms. Our tour guide Gilbert went up and beyond for us throughout our trip, from ensuring we got to see all the animals we wanted to making sure we were safe at all times and enjoying our trip. His knowledge of all the animals and the ecosystem of the safari is beyond words. Gilbert made our 3 days in southern Serengeti a trip we will remember for our lifetime.

I recently returned from a 3 day safari tour with Akondo Adventures that was nothing short of specta
Thank you to Laurian, you made us feel so comfortable, we were at first anxious for the experience but your expert knowledge of the animals, knowing the grounds and driving skills through tons of mud made us relax. You guys weren’t just our guides but family!! Hi cousin!!!

This travel agency is fantastic. Kimsy, who has been in touch with me, is very enthusiastic, and I am very satisfied with the itinerary she planned. Our driver and guide, Maina, was very experienced during the game drive and always managed to secure an excellent spot for viewing the animals. Our whole family had a wonderful time throughout the trip. Thank you!
