Best Rwanda Safari
I booked a trip in Rwanda with New Horizons. Being a 9 days Journey, I could not imagine on how it could be as it was my first safari in Africa. Emmanuel turned awesome with incredible services and care. I was taken at all corners of the country in a fantastic jeep and enjoyed cultural, historical, community, hiking/trekking, boating, night life experiences. Have indeed enjoyed travelling with a local guide Emma, highly recommended for Rwanda trips.

Ker & Downey Africa are over the top of my traveling experiences.
First Thank you to Emma Perrin which was perfect and super patience with me and my hundreds of questions. She always respond and help us planning our Safari in a perfect way. She designed every single detail and beyond of our safari experience.
Emma help me to design a complex safari trip with many flights, road trips and safari timings so we do not missed any second and with Ker & Downey Africa works like a Swiss clock. One day we had a safari drive in the morning in one lodge but at the afternoon drive we had to be in a different one and we did it, was perfect, we do not want to loose any chance to get amazing photographs from our trip.
As photographers timing is everything, with Emma and Ker & Downey Africa we did not get blurred at any second.
I asked to Emma for one specific lodge and she booked that one for us, plus she select 2 others which make our experience perfect because every single place was so different from the others, and for a photographer that was a plus because I got a chance to photograph animals in different conditions.
I live in the other side of the world, so communication was complicated, but Emma was always helping me with my questions and comments so she return my e-mails with the perfect plan.
English is not our native language so she also was patience with me in this aspect, We are so grateful to Emma and Ker & Downey Africa for our perfect safari trip.
We return home with so many amazing stories about, hyenas, cheetahs, elephants, lodges, people, food, flights, etc... and all of them are positive.
I think there is no way go wrong with Ker & Downey Africa, to book online you always get suspected but at the end I am so happy that we did everything with them and we had no bad experiences. It is sad for me to read reviews of other travelers that go to Africa and after all that time and money they return home with bitter things of they experience. As I said... you can't go wrong with Emma and K&D Africa.

Eyes on Serengeti aren't your Safari Guides in Arusha, they are your family, 200% Recommended
The experience with Eyes on Serengeti was excellent, started with the way the reply the Inquire I did about to prepare an option for me and my family, adapting the plan to our schedule. The way they reply was very professional. Later the communication continued by Whatsapp, where we were able to clarify any doubt. The quotation was accepted and the transfer from my US Bank account was done to a one of the most reliable banks in Tanzania (Branch of Standard Bank) under the name of the company, not to a personal account.
The day before arrive in Kilimanjaro Airport, Richard (Mkishia) started to write me to knew if we arrived well in Dar es Salaam (coming from Mozambique) and to confirm that him and Lumumba Emanuel will be at the airport right on time at the moment we landed.
As they promised, they were there, with the Fantastic Toyota modified for the best Safari experience, and noticed that before this safari, we took several safaris in Kruger Park.
They offered two trips, the first one was to visit lake Manyara, the second was to visit the Ngorongoro Crater, is where the migration of animals start or finish between this place and Masai Mara in Kenya, passing through Serengeti park. In addition, the two options to sleep booked by the company were more than great.
I want to thanks Richard and Lumumba for their professionalism, friendly treatment, the nice conversation and the knowledge of the area. I cannot do less that recommended 200%. This company provide and excellent and trustable services. Asante Sana.

The Vacation of a Lifetime
I just want to share my experience with Happy World Safaris on our (Me and 5 Fellow Worker) trip with them on September 2019 doing a 6 Day Safari.
The Safari was beyond our expectation, well organized, and we were much pleased with Joseph and His team. We were warmly welcomed by the team and they took good care of us from the beginning to the end of Safari. The Itinerary was great, allocation of time, activities, and accommodation fitted in our interests. The Price was good and we felt value for money.
We visited Tarangire National Park, Lake Mayara National Park, Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater. We stayed at Mount Meru Hotel, Maramboi Tented Lodge, Farm House, Kati Kati Tented Camp and Ngorongoro Sopa Lodge, and it was a nice stay. Our Driver Guide Sammie was the best, he has excellent driving skills, knowledgeable in both animals-birds-trees, fluent in English, and spotted many animals for us with very sharp eyes even where we saw only grass but there was interesting thing when we used binocular. The Jeep used was so nice in excellent condition, comfortable, inside it was fixed with power supply (which we used for charging our electronic as we love so much to travel with them, this was truly nice) and a mini fridge to keep our things cold &fresh
We were so much pleased with Joseph, very friendly and excellent services, Sammie made us fell safe all the time.I recommend Happy World Safaris and Sammie as driver guide to any one planning to do Safari in Tanzania.

A Brilliant Serengeti Safari Trip
We had a fantastic safari in Serengeti! The staff at Jaribu Africa Adventures have been wonderful and everything fell into place. It was amazing how every single detail was sorted and we didn't have to worry about anything during our safari trip. In particular Joseph was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble.
The lodges they suggested were brilliant, in particular Lemala camps was breath taking. I would highly recommend using Jaribu Africa Adventures! Thanks again for an unforgettable safari trip.

A 10+ for our experience with Tailor Made Safaris. From beginning to end it exceeded our expectation
We came into contact with them through the holiday fair in Holland and were impressed with their presentation. We booked the Elephant Coast safari with them and the communication with them ( what do we want, budget) was without any problem. I also liked the personal contact with them. When we arrived in Durban our suitcases where left behind. They immediately took over and arranged everything for us and kept us posted so we knew what was going on and later the same day the suitcases arrived in our lodge. Al we needed to do was to enjoy our time there. The fact that we received a beautiful travelbook together with the phone and navigation was perfect. Step by step was very wel explained in the book. We truly felt their involvement. We have already decided that in two years time we will book another holiday with them. I can recommend Tailor Made Safaris to everybody. Special thanks to Angela and Annelies.

From Dust to Delta to Falls
We had such a wonderful time...starting from Namibia to canoeing though the Okavango Delta via Chobe National Park to a sweeping helicopter view of the Victoria Falls!. Wild Dog have sourced fantastic sites that provide stunning locations with great natural beauty as well as hot showers! We were all well fed and watered culminating in water water everywhere at the greatest waterfall in the world!
Wild Dog are really well organised with friendly guide/driver & cook who are always willing to go the extra mile. Not only are they knowledgeable but we also had specialist guides at practically every stop so we were really well informed & discovered a wide range of stuff we didn't expect to...you cannot imagine the myriad uses for elephant dung!
An unforgettable adventure that we will always treasure...thank you so much to one and all at Wild Dog Safaris!
