We were happy with our experience with Kiliphat African Safari.
Our guide, Pedro, was very kind and helpful, and showed us all the animals we wanted to see.
The tented camp in the middle of the Serengeti was a gem.
It's just a shame we only spent 2 hours in Ngorongoro Conservation Area, because it's absolutely worth it.
I will recommend this agency and, especially, this guide.

Well organised and experienced team
We recently summited Kilimanjaro with WAP adventure. Manjani took care of the whole trip from collecting us at the airport to dropping us off at our hotel after finishing the climb.
We climbed the mountain via the Machame gate, when we arrived we met our porters, cooks and guides. All of the guys were fantastic and helpful the whole time.
The food was great (portions were huge). Our guides Benedict and Haji were some of the nicest gentleman I’ve had the pleasure of spending time with, when we were struggling near the summit they were there to help the whole time (altitude is no joke up there!). We made the summit on the first attempt, this was only possible with the fantastic guides. Manjani was with us the whole time making sure everything ran smoothly on the mountain.
The porters are pretty much superheroes. It’s impossible without them! Every camp was set up and tea and coffee was ready upon our arrival at camp.
All in all couldn’t recommend WAP any more.

Exceptional guiding, professionalism, and unforgettable safari moments
From start to finish, our experience exceeded all expectations. The entire planning and booking process was handled exceptionally well by Simon, with very prompt and clear communication, a well-structured itinerary, and smooth, transparent payment handling. Everything was delivered exactly as promised. Once on safari, Steven Babu proved to be an outstanding guide—highly professional, reliable, and extremely knowledgeable about wildlife and the local environment. His ability to spot animals, position the vehicle perfectly, and create a calm, enjoyable atmosphere made every game drive special. We always felt safe, well informed, and genuinely cared for. The combination of excellent pre-trip organization and first-class guiding resulted in a truly memorable safari experience. We would highly recommend this team to anyone looking for a high-quality and well-run safari

My family and I had Hamza as our guide on our trip in June. He was the best guide we have ever had. The trip was amazing and Hamza made it special by really going the extra mile. Like after the gorilla safari he offered us wine as a surprise that we had made it. And on the safari he did everything to make sure we had the best experience and saw all the animals we wanted to see. I would really recommend booking a trip with Hamza!
Best regards from Linn and the whole family.

The agents were very reactive and always available, excellent service 👏🏻
The Guid they provide was extremely professional and experienced we spotted each and every animal, he was kind and active has a great experience traveling with FAUNA SAFARIS
I will ask for Lems next time too!
Our guide for the Panorama Route, Lems, knows every secret along the way. And he’s a comedian who will keep you laughing the whole time. He is a man of the people and we were created by his friends at every stop. Hope to see him again on my next visit!

Unforgettable
What an amazing trip I made with my daughter through Tailor Made Safaris.
At the Vakantiebeurs in Utrecht I was investigating if and how my daughter and I — two blonde women (59 and 32) — could safely travel on our own in South Africa, and that’s where I met Geert. His story, and especially the feeling I got from him as a Dutch person living there himself, immediately gave me a sense of trust. And that feeling only grew during the preparation and throughout the trip thanks to Angela, who also lives there with her family. She really knows what she’s talking about and reassured us when people back home questioned whether our trip was responsible.
Our trip of just over 2.5 weeks — a mix of hiking, wildlife, nature, culture, and moments of doing absolutely nothing — was summarised in a beautiful, handy little book that felt like unwrapping daily gifts over and over again. It guided us through each day, knowing that Angela was in the background if needed.
How wonderful it was to receive a South African phone at the airport, to have all the taxis arranged for us in Johannesburg, the transfers to and from the Apartheid Museum, the guided cycling tour in Soweto, and the transfer to our rental car. It felt good not having to explore those areas on our own. Everywhere we went they knew about our arrival and our arrangements — everything was organised incredibly well.
With our comfortable rental car we continued our journey to the beautiful Drakensberg, Ithala, Kosi Bay, Tembe, St Lucia, and as the grand finale, a stunning lodge in a truly spectacular spot in the Makongo Hills. Wow, what an experience — the animals, the beautiful accommodations (each one more beautiful than the next, and we knew that beforehand), the views, the game drives, the food, and not to forget the warm hospitality of the people. And if you get a flat tyre, you simply call Angela in your own language and she talks you through everything. And how special it was when she visited us during the trip with a cake for my birthday, sharing stories from her daily life in South Africa.
We didn’t always manage to reach our daily travel-times because of potholes, speed bumps, animals, and traffic, which unfortunately cut into our “relax-and-do-nothing” time here and there. So adding an extra day at beautiful spots is something we would definitely recommend. There’s still room for improvement when it comes to route marking for self-drive game drives or walks in the reserves compared to the Netherlands, and we experienced the helpfulness of the locals and lodge staff when we got stuck on a sandy road or didn’t dare to cross a flowing river. They truly help you solve it. Such kindness — and most importantly, we never once felt unsafe during the entire trip.
In short: we had an unforgettable journey with an exceptionally wonderful travel organisation.
A perfect way to feel free while everything important is well-arranged and prepared. If we go again, we will definitely book through them. Highly recommended!
