Memorable lifetime experience
I did the 21 days Under Canvas Camping started from Cape Town to Vic Falls in Aug-Sep 2025.
Our guides are Maxwell (Max) and Xhaka.
We were a diverse group ranging from age group 20s to 70s from 4 different countries.
The red multifunction vehicle grabs attention everywhere we go :) There was always a full crate of fruits and books in the vehicle, which were great especially for some days with long hours of travel on the road.
Both Max and Xhaka were committed and passionate to provide us the experiences and bring us to places included in the itinerary. But what was even more amazing were their knowledge and insights to the living, cultural, botanical and geographical aspects shared with us which made the experiences more impactful. These are real values added to the adventures.
Understandably, they can' t guarantee how many or which animals we would see, but their eagerness to look out for the animals and plants were very much appreciated. They both complimented each other very well. It was impressive how both managed to prepare meals just so effortlessly yet tasted better than in the restaurants we went to.
Xhaka’s intelligence, calm and collected demeanour made the group felt relaxed in all situations. He always manages to bring fun to the team. He is very well spoken and gelled very well with everyone in the team despite our diverse background.
Max was an excellent driver, managing the harsh conditions on the road and looking out for animals for us at the same time. He maintained and took care of any issues with the vehicle very well, leaving us safe on the road. He has many stories to share from his experiences, and very passionate about his job.
In those places where we did have a local guide, they were also great, especially those in the Okavango Delta. It was so much more meaningful to be able to interact with the poler learning about their way of living and their language.
Thankful to them for sharing their way of living and resources with us.
Overall, for me this trip is excellent for those who want varieties, learn about different places, about local cultures and connect with the nature. Being on a camping trip, the guides played a vital role as they were the 2 people we need to feel safe, trust and reliable with their professionalism and knowledge. To most, especially the first-time travellers to Africa, the guides were the reflections of the hospitality and nature of the people here. I am glad Sunway brought in guides with their own unique personalities but yet professional and helpful making the trip lots of fun, played a big part in making the trip such an amazing experience. They worked very hard to help us whenever needed, ensure our safety going places and connect with each other.
Camping equipment were in good condition. Places we stayed were mostly basic but clean and were reasonable with the price paid for the trip.
Thank you for showing us the Southern African hospitality, openness and a well-planned trip.

Amazing Safari Planning and safari guide
Janeth was incredibly professional throughout my planning process. I had requested quotes from several companies, but she was the one who helped me decide which places to visit to make the most of my safari trip. She was highly responsive — even replying at midnight in Kenya — and very flexible in accommodating my special requests. She also checked in with me daily, which I appreciated even though I often travel solo and don’t usually need that level of support. For travelers who enjoy having someone follow up regularly, this would be a huge plus.
My guide, Melk, was excellent at spotting animals from a distance. He asked which animals I most wanted to see and went out of his way to find them for me. His deep knowledge of wildlife really stood out — you can tell he is passionate about what he does, not just doing a job. He was friendly, attentive, and easy to get along with. I would definitely recommend him to anyone booking with this company.

Exemplary
Thank you so much for the wonderful opportunity to visit Kenya. We thoroughly enjoyed. Joseph was the best guide to have- we learned a lot from him. He is a walking encyclopedia and always made sure we felt safe during our trip. We had a beautiful time and will cherish all our time here. Thank you as well Tina for seamlessly planning every detail. We will be highly recommending you to our friends and family. You make visiting Kenya a smooth process. Blessings to you and all those at Magical Skies Travels.

Professional, attentive, truly care about making your adventures the best it can be
We did the 8-day Lemosho trek (Sep 1–8) followed by a 7-day safari (Sep 9–16) with Nafika Tours, and we cannot recommend them enough. From our very first inquiry to the end of the journey, Elias and his team showed an exceptional level of professionalism. He answered all our questions promptly and patiently as we debated between premium and standard packages, decided on the best base camp for summit night, and customized safari quotes to fit my handpicked accommodations, ensuring everything matched our needs perfectly.
Elias also paired us with outstanding guides who truly made the experience. On Kilimanjaro, Justin and Lordy carefully managed our pace, encouraged us to eat and hydrate to minimize altitude sickness, and supported us every step of the way. When one member of our group suffered from high altitude sickness, they took excellent care of her and gave the encouragement we needed to ensure all three of us reached the summit successfully.
For the safari, our guide Octavian was incredible. His deep knowledge of wildlife, sharp eye for spotting animals, and genuine passion for his work elevated the experience beyond what we imagined. Thanks to him, we witnessed countless animals up close and even saw three wildebeest crossings during our two days in the northern Serengeti, a truly unforgettable highlight.
If you’re considering climbing Kilimanjaro or going on safari in Tanzania, we wholeheartedly recommend Nafika Tours. They are professional, attentive, and truly care about making your adventure the best it can be.

We didn‘t saw a lot of animals because the Park is to big. But the landscape is crazy beautiful.
