Super Eagles were professional, flexible and good value & guide Alvin was great on birds and mammals
We were a party of six colleagues keen to experience Kenya's wildlife after attending a conference in Nairobi. We contacted Super Eagles after seeing positive reviews on this site. Charity in the office always responded promptly and helpfully to our queries, and was flexible when we gradually increased the number of guests from two to six. Our guide/driver, Alvin, was excellent. He picked us promptly each day, outlined the planned itinerary clearly, and was also flexible to our requested tweaks. He drove safely and competently on some very busy and potholed roads. As well as knowing the mammals, he was also good on birds, both spotting and identifying them. This had been one of our special requests, as several of the group are keen birders. Alvin kept in touch with other guides in the Masai Mara, which meant he was able to use the latest sightings to show us lion, leopard and cheetah, as well as great views of many other mammals and 180 bird species. We spent three nights at the Enchoro Wildlife Camp (a tented camp just outside Masai Mara NP), one night in a hotel near Lake Nakuru, and one night in a hotel near Lake Naivasha. Compared to some other operators, the tour was very good value and delivered as promised. I highly recommend both the company and Alvin.

Checked nearly every box
We had an amazing safari trip with Ian who was our extremely knowledgeable and helpful guide. We managed to see the big 5 and experienced lots of memorable sightings. Communication with the agency was easy. We stayed at the Governors camp which itself felt like a wildlife park and the staff was fantastic. Thank you for organizing a great trip for us!

Our tour guides were top notch, extremely knowledgeable, and seriously so much fun to hang out with!
Our group was in Africa for 2 weeks. Matt helped organize our guides where we had no hiccups at all. We were picked up and taken care of from the very beginning, to the very end. We had long drives to get from one place to the other, but we had some really fun stops along the way to break up our hours in the car. I thought we were doing safaris most of the time, but we did village experiences, hot air balloon rides, an equator stop, gorilla trekking, chimpanzee trekking, orphanage and school experiences, and incredible talks in the vehicles! Our guides were with us every step of the way, and were so much fun to get to know! I was told by so many of my friends, to be prepared to sit and be bored. That was NEVER the case with us. Our guides were entertaining and laughing with us as, and they were just as excited to see the animals as we were, so they would drive with passion to get us the best view point for our pictures as possible! It was better than I ever imagined (and I had imagined amazing things)!!! I told my friends that I don't think I could go back to do another safari trip, because I don't know how you could top this one. Every place we stayed was just better than the last. It was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the people were so kind everywhere we went! I couldn't say better things about Tapestry of Africa Tours and Safaris! If you are planning a trip, this is your place!!!

Incredible memories – trip of a lifetime
Our 7-day Botswana Magic and Incredible Victoria Falls trip with Africa Uncovered exceeded our expectations.
The booking process was very smooth, and Archie replied instantly to any questions we had. When we arrived at Victoria Falls, we were picked up by our guide, Tafara. On our way to the hotel, he recommended that we visit the Victoria Falls early the next morning, offered to pick us up, and even organized a guide for the falls (thank you, Peace, for your explanations!). That was an amazing start to our holiday!
Following that, we had days planned at Chobe National Park, the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans close to Nata, the Okavango Delta (our highlight), and later Elephant Sands. We saw a total of 5 lions, as well as many elephants, zebras, wildebeest, giraffes, flamingos, ostriches and many more animals. Our highlight was the overnight camping experience in the Delta, with the walking safari and the Mokoro ride. Our guide, Ottis, was very knowledgeable and showed us his skills in animal tracking. Thanks also to the entire camping team for the good food and the overall organization!
Our biggest thanks go to Tafara. Tafara always made sure we felt comfortable and shared many insights with us about animals, culture and nature. We cannot thank him enough for how engaged he was and how much he cared about making this a memorable trip for us!
The hotels were well chosen, and all activities were well organized. Tafara accompanied us to all meeting points and always checked in with us when we returned from our activities.
Thank you Africa Uncovered for making this a trip of a lifetime!

reliable
We had a wonderful experience on our safari in Tanzania, perfectly organized by Annie, who assisted us with great professionalism and attention to every detail.
A special thank you goes to our guide, Daudi—a highly knowledgeable and personable young man with whom we immediately hit it off. He speaks excellent Italian, and it was truly important for us to be able to communicate with him easily and fully understand all his explanations. Thanks to his experience and passion, we managed to see the "Big Five" and even witness the spectacle of the Great Migration—a truly unforgettable moment.
We had a fantastic time with him and the entire agency. It is an experience we highly recommend to everyone! 🦁🦬🦏🐘🐆❤️

A professional and caring tour operator that made our Madagascar trip truly special
We had an amazing experience with Soul of Madagascar Tours and are very grateful for the wonderful trip they organized for us.
From the very beginning, the communication was excellent. Everything was handled in a very professional, friendly and personal way, and we always felt that we were in good hands. The team was very flexible and understanding, especially when we had to make some spontaneous changes to our itinerary.
Throughout the trip, we had wonderful experiences with our drivers and local guides. Everyone was kind, reliable and knowledgeable, and we received lots of interesting information about the places, nature and culture we visited. The guides in particular really made an effort to make each experience special and memorable.
Although we unfortunately had to change our plans for Tsingy, this did not take away from the many amazing experiences we had throughout Madagascar. The country is absolutely incredible, and having such a friendly and dedicated team supporting us along the way made the journey even more enjoyable.
Overall, we are very happy with our trip and would absolutely recommend Soul of Madagascar Tours to anyone planning a trip to Madagascar. We felt very comfortable and well taken care of throughout the entire journey.
Thank you so much for making our trip so special! We are already looking forward to coming back to Madagascar — hopefully next time for Tsingy and the east of the country! ❤️

Organized, Knowledgeable led to a trip of a lifetime! Would highly recommend to anyone
Kathi was a major part of why our honeymoon trip to South Africa was a trip of a lifetime! Every step of the way Kathi was organized and so prompt in the beginning stages of planning. She was very prompt with email replies back.
It is clear that she has a deep understanding of the area including the cities and safari, which allowed us to experience the highlights of South Africa and Kruger park. During our trip, Kathi remained in close contact, and was so accommodating when we wanted to add to book an extra excursion. She would provide us ahead of time the name of any drivers, and give us reminders to check into flights. I also wanted to shout out the tour operators that Kathi connected us with; Debbie was amazing and we loved spending the 4 days touring Cape Town and surrounding areas. We also can't even start with the safari Kathi recommended and booked us into! The whole trip went so smoothly, and we felt safe the whole time thanks to Kathi's work.
For anyone looking to book, I 100% recommend Kathi, and have already given my recs to my close friends and family

All fees were agreed ahead and no extra’s were popping up as surprise. I had a wonderfull safari with stunning views, very many observations with nature, plants and above all animals. I hoghly recommend Axis.

This is perfect
We saw all the animals that were possible to see. A huge thank you to the best game driver in Kenya, Dennis Hinga!
Always in a great mood, very attentive, and truly passionate and dedicated to his work.
A big thank you to Alex, our French-speaking guide, the most cheerful and smiling person I have ever met.
Thank you also to all the camp staff, who gave us such a warm welcome and made us feel at home.
The experience was absolutely incredible and truly unique.
I hope that one day I will have the chance to relive these unforgettable moments.
