He is great at spotting wildlife
Very easy process, I booked at the very last minute and everything was perfect. My guide Luther knew everything about the animals and we saw everything from lions to elephants. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants to see some of the world’s most iconic animals and landscapes.

Discover Madagascar with the locals
The first time we met Lova was during a walking tour in Antananarivo. She was our guide and showed us all the highlights of the city. During the tour she explained is a lot about the country, the culture, the history and the local traditions. But not only that; she also connected us to local people. Lova is an English teacher and a group of her students joined us during the tour. This was a great experience, in this way we met a whole group of lovely people on our first day in Madagascar! The next day, we were invited to a party at Lova's place. Again, we had a really great time, we chatted and danced the whole afternoon, amazing how we were welcomed in Madagascar this way!
Later, we went on a 5 day trip with Lova and the family. We travelled from Antananarivo to Ile st Marie. The trip was well organized. We spent a lot of time in the car together where we had good conversations, played nice music and did sing some songs. We visited multiple parcs, saw a lot of beautiful wildlife (lemurs, chameleons, snakes, geckos etc).
At the end of the trip we had some bad luck; our boat was cancelled. So, we had to improvise to find a solution on how to reach Ile st Marie. The team did everything they could to find the best solution and a good and safe trip for us to the island!

They gave the best experience of Kenyan safari
Jocky travels made our Kenyan safari super exciting. We didn't bother about anything. Everything was organized by Ms.Maureen very well. It was very convenient chating with her and she responded for almost all our queries , makkng the trip plan flawless. Mr. Geeman was our guide and commuter during the whole trip. He took care of our journey in his safari jeep without any hassles . In Masai Mara, the local guide Patrick also took us for the game ride for a day which was also amazing. In the Nakuru lake Mr. Paul guided us through the boating and in hells gate, Mr. Francis did a wonderful job explaining the park and took wonderful photos of ours.

An Unforgettable Safari Experience!
From start to finish, Mara Nova Safaris exceeded all my expectations. The team was professional, friendly, and made sure every detail of the trip was well organized. The game drive was incredible, the views were breathtaking, and seeing wildlife up close was an unforgettable experience. Their guides were knowledgeable and made the journey both exciting and informative. If you’re looking for a seamless, memorable safari adventure, I highly recommend Mara Nova Safaris. I can’t wait to travel with them again!

Great Safari with great guide Enock!
We had a great safari with Enock. He put in high efforts and showed us all animals of the Serengeti. Enock also explained a lot about the nature and beauty of the landscape and explained all animals to us. We absolutely enjoyed the time and highly recommend this safari! It was great fun!

Great experience, excellent value!
We had a wonderful time on our 4 night 5 day tour. Our trip started with a half day tour in Antananarivo before flying to Morondava for 2 nights. While in Morondava we did a night and day walk at Kirindy forest and spent ample time at Allée des Baobabs. We then flew back to Antananarivo and drove to Andasibe for night and day walks in the forests and wildlife parks. Everything about our trip was seamless and easy. All of our guides were knowledgeable and on time. It was also very easy to modify our itinerary to fit our exact interests. We especially appreciated that this tour included the cost of domestic flights and everything was booked for us. We’d definitely recommend booking with Friendly Tour Guides!

Very nice team😊
Good Organisation. Very nice and competent Team. We have made 1 day Ngorongoro Safari, our guide show us all animals that leave in this area. And we were lucky to see there jiraffe on the back way. Second day we went to Materuni Waterfalls and visited village were we experienced coffe making, it was interesting and funny 😊. Waterfall is impressive, but the way to Waterfalls was very dirty.
Overall, we are happy with this trip.

What an extraordinary experience!
My sister and I have just completed a week travelling from Victoria Falls to Maun, and it is an experience we will never forget. I just don't have adequate words to describe all the wonderful moments - the landscape, encounters with wildlife, our excellent guides and meeting both locals and other travellers.
Pamela, our host, was friendly, kind and helpful, and all of our guides were very knowledgeable.
I would recommend Africa Zim to anyone considering a guided safari, and hope to return myself.
