Attention to detail and cost, sincere effort to ensure an experience of a lifetime.
My friend and I planned a 5-day safari covering Central Serengeti, Ndutu, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara and finalised with Ozon Light Tours over the period. February being a peak period, we booked well in advance. Yohana was great in helping us firm up the itinerary, selection of camps and the overall booking process. Yohana was prompt in his responses and met our needs through and through. We had a lovely time at each camp.
The two things I would have to say for the company to improve on are
1) Our vehicle tended to break down unexpectedly. It was a 6 seter but the middle and rear windows were jammed. We had to force our guide to open them during the Ngorongo safari. The binoculars were also a hoax.
2) Kessy our guide was positioned as very experienced. But since he had seen it all so many times, was quite uninterested. He was knowledgeable and courteous but very distracted. Kessy rarely used the radio to collaborate with other vehicles and find animal sightings. And very hesitant to take alternate back routes. Since he was just intent on completing the trip, we literally had to take matters into our hands and force him to stop at places.
All in all, we had a great experience with Ozon Light Travels. Yohana was a star, meeting our pre-travel needs for the safari and was kind enough to provide lunch hamper and sandbag for camera rest. We had enough water and drinks to last the trip comfortably. Yohana even picked us at the airport himself on our request and was instrumental in booking us in good accommodations as per our liking throughout.

Efficient, attentive and helpful
If you're looking for a travel agency that is both efficient and truly cares about your individual needs, look no further than African Skimmer Safaris. They recently helped me book my flights and hotel accommodations in Watamu and Diani Beach, and I was so impressed with their service. They were incredibly quick in their responses and always ready to assist. What stood out was their attentiveness – they really listened to what I wanted and were very happy to make adjustments to my itinerary to ensure it was exactly what I was looking for. Their helpfulness and flexibility made planning my trip a breeze. I highly recommend African Skimmer Safaris!

Amazing and professional company
Our safari tour with Serengeti Smile together with Pius has been nothing else than amazing! We saw so many animals. Pius took his time to explain about the animals, and he was just so great. At one time, we saw some lions sleeping, and while all the other cars took off, Pius recommended us to stay. Soon after, they stood up and we were alone and had the experience of our lives. They were so amazing, came close to the car, and we got so many pictures.
We have booked Serengeti Smile without any extern company, and it was very easy with payment. Albert always responded fast and answered all the questions we had. We even had pick-up at our hostel in Arusha for free.
Out greatest recommendations of Serengeti Smile to whoever that seeks amazing experiences!

Review about Tarangire National Park by Gosia & Lorenzo
Wasn’t interested in birding - but we still had a chance to see some.
The wild life was amazing- our first safari and we saw much.

Beautiful and Diverse
It’s hard to find a trip that can match what South Africa offers. It provides something for everyone from chasing the Big Five in Kruger to sipping wines in the Cape Winelands to cycling the Cape Peninsula.
We read a lot about safety in South Africa but we never felt unsafe at any time. We did an incredibly well organized tour to Kruger with MoAfrika but also toured on own in the Capetown area. Renting a car was easy and safe, much prefer driving in South Africa to let’s say Italy.
I can’t imagine a better climate than you will find in Capetown. Always sunny and never too hot. I found it to be a cross between the beauty of Vancouver, Canada and the wonderful climate of San Diego, USA. Kruger can be very hot so I would choose a cooler time of year to visit if that is a concern.

Unforgettable experience with Commiphora Africana Safari
We had an incredible experience travelling from Kilimanjaro Airport to the Namanga border. Everything was perfectly organized by Jackson, which allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the trip without any concerns. Our guide, Hussain, was exceptional, making the journey truly unforgettable as we spotted numerous lions, leopards, and other breathtaking animals. By the end of the trip, we had witnessed so many stunning sights that we decided to put our cameras down and simply savour the experience.
We wholeheartedly recommend Commiphora Africana Safari to all our friends and family.

So much to see, to learn, to discover- pure joy
We did two days trip with one sleepover in Arusha. The first day when we arrived from Zanzibar we went to Tarangire National Park. We loved our experience, the scenery, the wild life - everything was amazing- our guide was very knowledgeable and made sure we were always safe and well informed. We were lucky to see lion family with two cubs, giraffes, buffaloes, monkeys and many elephants. The whole experience was incredible. After a night in Arusha we went to Kilimanjaro- we did foothills and we went to Materuni Waterfalls and village where we learned about coffee plantation and peoples life. Altogether we had memorable and amazing time.
