EXCELLENT
Our experience with Bavuma Wild Quest was absolutely amazing! From the very first communication, everything was clear, professional, and friendly. The team made sure every detail was perfectly organized and always responded quickly to our questions.
The safari itself was unforgettable — we saw incredible wildlife, stayed in beautiful lodges, and felt safe and well taken care of the entire time. The guides were knowledgeable, passionate, and made every day an adventure.
Excellent service, great value for money, and a truly reliable company. We had a wonderful time in Tanzania and would definitely recommend Bavuma Wild Quest to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable safari experience!

Incredible and worry-free safari
We went on a 5-day safari with a group of 7 that include my parents and siblings (ages 30-75). After reaching out to Suricata with our information and rough requirements, everything was so smooth. They responded promptly with a very reasonable quote, helped us finalize the length, dates, and locations and then we were all set. Literally all we had to do from that point was show up at the airport and we were taken care of. Neema was excellent to work with and highly responsive.
The safari itself well exceeded our expectations. Freddy, our guide, was friendly, organized, knowledgeable (about everything even beyond just the wildlife), and was able to tailor the experience to our group’s needs. The lodging and food were great at every stop. We had several vegetarians and were able to have delicious and varied meals.
Overall this trip was like a dream come true. If you want to worry about nothing and simply enjoy an incredible safari experience, book with Suricata.

Exceptional Safari with Willy Philemon – Master Tracker and Guide
We joined Serengeti Wakanda Tours for a private 6-day Fly-In Migration Crossing Safari from Arusha (Northern Serengeti → Central Serengeti → Ngorongoro Crater → Tarangire). Our guide, Willy Philemon, delivered an experience far beyond expectations.
He consistently spotted elusive wildlife—two leopards, a black rhino, and even a serval cat—while other vehicles passed unaware. His deep field knowledge covered not only mammals but birds and behavior; he described each species’ adaptations with passion and clarity.
Willy’s guiding style balances safety, professionalism, and joy. He maintained a spotless, Wi-Fi-equipped vehicle with chilled drinks and gourmet lunches, adjusted itineraries to minimize crowds, and handled radio coordination between guides to ensure everyone viewed animals respectfully. He even managed traffic near the Ngorongoro Crater so we reached our flight on time.
We appreciated his photography skills—he captured incredible DSLR shots and helped transfer them to our phones—and his thoughtful cultural insights, teaching us Swahili phrases and practical safari tips. Seeing the Great Migration crossings, elephants and calves in Tarangire, and lions feeding in peace under his guidance was unforgettable.
Willy Philemon is a seasoned professional and a genuine ambassador of Tanzanian hospitality. Highly recommended: *request him specifically when booking.*

The most perfect experience - stop looking and book now!!
My recent trip to Kenya with 3P’s Travel was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. From the very beginning, the team went above and beyond to make everything seamless and memorable. I worked closely with Norah, who was unbelievably responsive, organized, and kind throughout the entire planning process. She took the time to tailor our itinerary exactly to what we wanted, answering every question quickly and making sure every detail was handled with care.
Once on the ground, our driver and guide was nothing short of phenomenal. His knowledge of the area, wildlife, and culture made the safari so much more meaningful. He had an amazing ability to spot animals that we never would have seen on our own — lions, elephants, giraffes, and even a leopard lounging in a tree! Each day felt like a new adventure, and he made sure we were comfortable, safe, and having the best experience possible.
The stay that they planned as well including the lodging, food, and transfer, felt like 5 star service. I could not imagine anything being different. Norah planned it perfectly and the rest of the 3P team made sure it was executed with luxury precision.
What stood out the most was the customer service and personal attention we received. Every step of the way, the team at 3P’s Travel made us feel taken care of — from hotel pickup to the daily safari drives and accommodations. There was never a moment where we felt rushed or overlooked. Everything ran so smoothly, and it was clear how passionate they are about creating unforgettable experiences for their guests.
The wildlife sightings were beyond anything I could have ever imagined. Thanks to our driver’s expertise and patience, we were able to see every animal on our list (multiple times!!) — often up close and in beautiful, natural settings. It truly felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the skill, warmth, and dedication of the 3P’s Travel team.
I truly cannot recommend this company enough.
Whether you’re planning your first safari or a return trip to Africa, 3P’s Travel is the team you want by your side. They’re professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about making your trip extraordinary. I’ll absolutely be using them again for future adventures.

Our tour opeator was both knowledgeable, attentive to our needs and easy to work with.
We are two senior adventures. We contracted with Africa Safari Bookings for our trip to Kenya and Tanzana. We planned the details of our trip with the guidance of Edmond our tour operator, The outcome was terrific. We encountered almost face to face the big five and other animals like Giraffes, Hippopotamus, Cheetahs, Zebra, Wildabest, Kuda, Impala, Monkeys, Hyenas, Gazelle and Thompson Gaxelle to mention a few. We felt the success of our advenrure not only goes to Edmond but our guides/ drivers. There many years of experience made this trip a success. A good guide is a must when doing this type of trip because they know how to corrdinate with the other safari drivers to find the aniimals close up. Our trip with Africa Safari Bookings was a life time experiencce and we highly recommend them.
A couple of other issues you may want to consider when booking a trip to Africa, If you go at peak season July and Aqugust there are so many safari's on the road that there are many back ups in getting in and out of the park along with waiting in line in your Safari Van to see an animals cose up for a few seconds. Another issue is goinging a group of 4 or 6 people in the same Safari Van which makes it difficult to all stand and see and take pictures of all the animals at the same time when there are so many Vans at the same sight.
We decided to go with a Van just for ourselves and were able to let the driver know when we wanted to stop to take pictures or just observe the animals. This decision was made ahead of time, During our trip this decision was a good one and was comfirmed as the best way to go for us thrrough our observations and talking with our two driver/guides. It may cost a little more but if you work with Africa Safari bookings it will all be worth it.

Perfect 12-Day Safari through Tanzania and Uganda with Deks Tours
My husband, Winton, and I booked a 12-day trip to Africa with Deks Safaris and Tours in September, and to our surprise, the entire trip was unparalleled! We initially underestimated the company because it had few reviews and was new, but their service turned out to be incredibly professional, genuine, and flawless. From the moment we first spoke with Samuel about the trip until we made the booking, he was incredibly attentive and helpful throughout the entire process.
When we landed at Kilimanjaro Airport in Tanzania, we met him in person, perfectly introduced as a representative of the company. Our guide, Emma, provided us with an exceptional 7-day experience in Tanzania: the safaris in the Serengeti were wonderful; we spotted many big cats, wildebeest, and a wide variety of other animals.
We then continued on to Uganda, where we met our guide, Jamal, who made the gorilla and chimpanzee tracking experience truly unforgettable. Coming face-to-face with the mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest was such an amazing experience that it made us want to plan another trip to Uganda. We sincerely hope to organize another trip with you. We will definitely recommend your services to any of our friends planning a trip to Africa.
Thank you to Samuel, Emma, Jamal, and the entire Deks Safaris team.
With love,
Winton and Ketra

A great trip to the Serengeti with Enoch.
Enoch guided for me during a 3 night visit to the Serengeti. Due to his years of experience guiding he was able to show me everything I wanted to see, from specific animals to two viewings of Great Migration crossings of the Mara River. His animal behavior knowledge made it possible for him to consistently put us in just the right place for the perfect photo opportunities. Enoch designed every day around what I wanted to do and see. Just as importantly, Enoch is a great person to spend your days with. I would be very pleased to have Enoch as a guide on any future safari trips I might take!

Amazing experience, from start to finish
With so many companies offering safari experiences, we didn't know where to start and chose Earthwings because of their consistently positive reviews. We emailed our requirements and received a very quick response with some follow up questions to ensure that our experience fully met our needs and expectations. Every question we had was answered immediately and always with helpful advice and suggestions. The accommodation exceeded our expectations and our Guide, John was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about animals and conservation which we really appreciated. We always felt completely safe during our trip, and had very little to think about as everything was carefully planned for us. The whole experience from start to finish was amazing and I would one hundred percent recommend Earthwings to anyone, without any hesitation. It was a very special experience.
