They are amazing!
I dont know where to begin, because this trip was amazing! Somewhere in Africa arranged our hole trip to the Tarangire and Ngorogoro Crater. We even saw the big five! Our tour guide told us a lot of stories about the animals and their background and about the local people in Tanzania (Masai). I would really recommend them :)

Perfect safari experience!
Serengeti Clarity provided an amazing 4-day safari for us in Tanzania! Working with Frank to get our personalized itinerary was easy- and he was extremely responsive in answering our many questions. We could not have asked for a better guide than Eric- he was insanely knowledgeable about the people, culture, and animals we experienced and saw, and he knew the parks inside and out, so he knew where to take us for best chances of seeing the animals we were hoping to see. We especially loved our lodging and hot lunches, all at a competitive price. Would highly recommend both Serengeti Clarity and Eric to anyone!

He did everything to make us happy
We had an amazing 2 days trip with Somewhere in Africa. Everything was perfectly arranged. Our tour guide did everything to make us happy! He tells us everything about Tanzania and the animals. We think about this trip every day. It was a beautiful experience.
Resourceful, patient and always ready to answer questions
Naitu was very patient with us and our questions, she was resourceful and always got back to us. Communication was truly perfect and as a result the trip was smooth because there were no (unpleasant) surprises.

Excellent, Customer Focused tour operator
I had an excellent Safari experience with Wild Serenity Safaris. From the first email they took care of everything. Even when my flights changed last minute, they adjusted everything. I had them book extra hotels, airport transfers and luggage storage for me, which were all taken care of perfectly.
From when you step off the plane and a driver is waiting for you with your name on a card, to when they say goodbye on your last day, the team at Wild Serenity are very professional and caring team who will take care of all your Safari wishes. I highly recommend Wild Serenity Safaris.

Patient, friendly, organised, effective
Highly recommended! Lawrence was a thoughtful, friendly, and patient guide, taking note of my interests and going out of his way to meet my needs. I got to see everything I was hoping for - with enough time at each stop and while learning plenty along the way.
Tracy, who arranged the trip, was extremely helpful and responsive, too. The whole process was seamless, conducted over WhatsApp for maximum efficiency.
Thank you, both - I hope to return for a longer trip soon!

Wow!
Wow!
Just returned from a fabulous 7 day safari staying at Tremisana Game Lodge.
Situated on the Balule Nature Reserve, on the edge of Kruger National Park. Accommodation is in thatched lodges, in beautifully landscapes gardens, with many water features and a fabulous swimming pool. The staff are like one big happy family and we felt honoured to become part of the family during our stay. The Lapa, where all meals are taken is an ideal place to chill out and watch the animals visiting the waterhole just outside the property. Just beware of the pesky monkeys who’ll try and steal any food left lying around. The holiday included a bush walk, many drives at sunrise, sunset, barbecues in the bush, a couple of days in Kruger and a visit to the rehabilitation centre. All extremely memorable and every day is completely different. All the guides are extremely knowledgeable, so prepare to get educated on everything from mating habits to footprints and animal behaviour to spotting the different types of animal poop. It’s so much more than a holiday it’s is a huge learning experience! The guides are in regular radio contact so if an animal is spotted elsewhere then there’s nothing to match the excitement of a high speed rally drive to find the animal. Hang on tight, because you really will get bounced around in the jeeps, but it’s all part of the fun! The guides ensure you get to see everything you can and we were lucky enough to see all the Big 5 within 48 hours of arriving at the lodge. Whilst we were on holiday, we celebrated a big wedding anniversary, so a big shout the staff who decorated our lodge with flowers and also set out a romantic candlelit table for two at the bush barbecue. The whole holiday exceeded our expectations and we would most definitely recommend Viva Safari’s.

Hidden Gem in a Packed Market
We used Safari Bookings to search for our first Kenyan Safari since moving to East Africa. As you will have seen there are dozens of companies to choose from!
Laxa Trails didn't have the most reviews but the ones there were generally positive, so we took a chance. I have to say I'm so glad we did!
The guide Ben was amazing throughout, answering questions, stopping for toilet breaks, doing everything he could to find the best animals possible, but without the constant stream of information that you sometimes find with guides. For our group it was perfect!
Hotels really exceeded our expectations, with some really nice lodges beyond the mid-range I was expecting. They are long days when going on Safaris, so the comfortable return was welcome 😴😴
Top Tip: We saw in another review to ask to upgrade to the Pop Up Room 4x4, and you definitely should! The difference between the Land Cruiser and the minibus is second to none and space is amazing! For the small additional cost it's worth it 😁
