Whistle stop trip but had some lovely wildlife sightings.
We travelled to Kafue National Park for a 4 night whistle stop trip over Christmas. We drove ourselves from Lusaka airport which was a very easy journey with supermarkets found on route from the airport and once you are out of the city the roads are very easy to drive. We stayed at Mayukuyuku Camp located right on the edge of Kafue River. We had two person tents pitched for our arrival right beside the river with the hippos actually passing in front of them during the night. When we weren't out in the bush we were able to fish beside the stunning river. We often had dinner cooked at the camp where we ate under a nice open bush hut with the other guests. The food was very nice and at an affordable price (dinner $30 dollars that consisted of a starter, main and desert). We drove ourselves within the park and found once we were off the tar road on the side loops the wildlife was great. Animals can still be seen from the tar road but the speed limit is still high there so you have to be aware of other drivers passing through. We were there during the wet season but even off the tar road the roads were manageable and we only got stuck once but were able to get out ourselves. It might have been the time of year but there were fewer tourists in the park than I expected and you didn't have the large volume of vehicles that you often find in other parks which meant that a lot of the sightings were very personal with just one vehicle present. The game in the park was lovely to see. Although we didn't see the leopard that frequented the camp we saw elephants in most areas and had a great sighting of lions. The most special sighting of the trip, however, was coming across a pack of wild dogs that were completely relaxed around us and ended up lying down around our vehicle. At the end of the trip we had to start taking game drives with a guide as our fuel was low. If you're staying along the tar road there aren't many options for refuelling. Our guide however was very knowledgeable about the wildlife in the park and showed a real passion for the wildlife. Overall we had a lovely relaxing trip and will definitely visit again.

Hwange Over night tour
We had a great trip to Vic Falls and Hwange in mid Feb, made better by the friendly and punctual service of your bus drivers. Special word of thanks to Abu and to Joseph Moyo, who took us to Hwange. We were especially pleased to see him ready and waiting to take us back to the airport at the end of our stay at Hwange (unlike another poor man whose driver was at least 1.5 hours late!). We particularly enjoyed our time with Joseph because the longer trip gave us a chance to chat.

Review about Zambia by Natalie
We did not have time to go and see some of the plains animals because of the time of the year. Other than that it was all good.

reliable
We did the northern safari from 14th to 18th August and everything was just the way we wanted. The lodges were beautiful with stunning views. They had provided us a good safari vehicle and the driver was very excellent in spotting the animals. We had the best time and would recommend them to anyone considering safari in Tanzania.

4 days Safari in Masai Mara - great experience
Good agency doing the extra mile to ensure the great experience during the safari. They were able to organize a 4 day tour in a very short notice (same week..) although in a crowded period of the year. Driver very flexible while safe driving on itinerary from Nairobi to the camp. We were able to see a leopard which I understand is quite lucky and rare. Overall good value for money.
I recommend ACTT to any would be travellers especially for S. African destinations...
Prompt in responding to travel queries, highly efficient and very informative
A well organised safari with personalized service by the owner at a highly competitive rate - GREAT!
Restoration Safari has "environmental conservation" as its mission and helps connect customers to the local community, its culture, customs and nature. Bariki, our trusted, polite and courteous guide cum driver is truly passionate about the environment and could identify every plant and animal species seen at all the National parks across Tanzania!!! Pre- and post safari communications via email and telephone are extremely prompt and super efficient. The hotels were well selected and as per our requirements. I would personally recommend Restoration Safaris for a safe and secure adventure in Tanzania - perfect for families and women travelling alone.

Royal treatment at an affordable price.
My first travel experience to South Africa I had a slight apprehension on what tour company to use. A friend of mine recommended Tambuzi Safari's. I had some budget constraints so I went on a 10-day budget/ back packer safari package through Tambuzi in the Kruger National Park and surrounding areas. Traveling in a foreign country with different cultures, amazing sights and animals that only live in this area of the world had a great impact on my life. The fun of meeting new people and assisting with the daily camp activities energized my soul. I recommend using Tambuzi Mobile Camping Safari's when traveling to South Africa.
