A great adventure
Many thanks to Tanzania specialist who made our trip such a great adventure!
For us a little apprehension at the start because we had already done a first safari in South Africa and we were afraid of being disappointed. Quite the contrary, the magic worked and we returned delighted because this safari was far beyond our expectations.
Thanks to Gwen for the excellent organization, the choice of lodges, the optimized circuit which is very well thought out.
A big thank you to our guide IBRAHIM who knew how to do everything else. Benevolent, punctual, great availability and remarkable knowledge of wildlife. He knew through this stay to communicate to us the love of his beautiful country and its inhabitants, moreover he expresses himself with a very rich French, in a word a real professional.
We were also touched by the kindness and the welcome of the population, it is for us a great lesson in life, So thank you to the Tanzanians and more particularly to the Serengeti Sound of Silence team for their joie de vivre and their good mood.

Spectacular and Superb - by far the best Safari trip we have done in almost 20 years
Fantastic Experience with Nature Travel - Namibia
When we finally decided to pursue an ultimate trip on our bucket list, Namibia, financially as a result of receiving a small family inheritance.
We contacted several Tour and Game Drive operators covering Namibia. We provided them all with a detailed brief as to what we wanted for this trip based on our numerous years of experience with safaris in Kruger, Botswana, Zambia, Kwa-Zulu Natal, Uganda etc.
We subsequently received a couple of positive replies but Nature Travel Namibia through Nicolette Muller, seemed to be the very best at understanding our requirements and tailored a 16 day trip accordingly, which other companies seemed to miss.
We therefore decided to go with Nature Travel Namibia and they then adjusted plus tweaked the itinerary to meet our exact requirements.
We did in fact ask for their best Guide/Driver. What we got was an absolutely fantastic 16 day trip far surpassing our expectations and the Guide/Driver (Marc Cronje) was nothing short of superb, almost a walking encyclopaedia on wildlife and nature.
Note: being heavily into photography this more than surpassed what I had expected in terms of photo opportunities, a selection of which I have and am posting on Facebook, both my own site and on the "Namibia Photographers Group"
In short without doubt the best African Safari trip we have ever had since 2001.
Not sure what else we can say except Nature Travel Namibia is by far our ultimate choice for any future trips and would 100% recommend them to anybody

No customer relationship
As usual, I was extremely busy prior to my travel so did not have the time to check what the requirements were for entering Botswana. The tour operator should have had the foresight to inform me of the requirements. We are fully vaccinated but did not realize that we had to print or produce our vaccination certificate at the airport. We had to pay R2000 to get our PCR tests done prior to travel. This added expense could have been avoided had the tour operator taken the time to inform us of this.

Kudu Safari made our 2 day trip to Amboseli a great experience that we will never forget
We had a great 2-day experience in Amboseli and Juma was an excellent driver and guide. Also, the Serena Amboseli Hotel was perfect to stay and relax. We certainly recommend the Kudu way. Thank you very much.

Amazing Safari
We had an unforgettable time. Whether it's the request for the quote, the exchanges by email with Marie which are fast until the safari, everything went very well, and everything was very fluid and made sure to facilitate and help us. The safari was tailor-made respecting our desired criteria. On our arrival, we were welcomed by our guide and Colman, the director of the agency, and on our departure Marie and Colman came to say goodbye and exchange with us; which is really appreciable, we feel considered and not just a simple tourist, the experience is really personalized from A to Z. And our guide was great throughout the stay, friendly, funny, attentive, we recommend Marmoudi for your stay

Amazing South Africa Safari with Rhys and Matthew
Our group of five did the 4 day, 3 night Hluhluwe Imfolozi – St. Lucia tour with Endless Summer and had a fantastic time seeing a wide array of animals – many of them up close and personal. If I could give this experience 10 stars I would, because it was that amazing.
Everything was smooth and professional from pickup at our Durban Hotel to drop off at that same hotel 3 dàys later. This was at the end of a 2-week South Africa visit that included trips to 3 cities and several day and night safari drives and activities.
Owner Rhys Scott-Dawkins and his fellow guide Matthew were knowledgeable, personable, caring, accommodating and awesome cooks. It was a “private” adventure. We were the only ones in the van and it was so much nicer than being crammed in a bus with strangers. Hiring a company like Endless Summer is so much easier and less stressful than trying to map out an itinerary and go on your own. They hired sub contractor guides for most of the excursions...and these folks except for one woman (who worked for the reserve, did a night drive and was truly incompetent) were experts.
Actually staying in the huge wildlife reserve, the oldest in Africa, was the best part of the trip. Accommodations were far from fancy, but being in the bush disconnected from distractions of tv, internet and cell phones, was worth the trade-off. Seeing an elephant on the pathway in front of the house and having warthogs and a herd of Nyala visit our back yard at sundown was exciting and made for great photo ops.
The self catering house was 3 bedrooms of twin beds with a large fully equipped kitchen and outdoor patio. The guys stocked up on food, snacks, water, drinks and cooked for us...they also did a few awesome Braai's (barbecues) and picnics at scenic spots. They stayed in a modern tent down the road. The reserve was on a generator that shut down from 10 p.m. until 5 a.m.
Seeing so many animals and bird species and hearing their sounds gave me a new appreciation of life and the peacefulness of the bush. I have never seen such beauty in both natural landscapes and the wildlife. It was calming to watch elephant, giraffe, zebra, hippo, rhino, hyena, warthog, bush pig, lion, etc. in their own environment roaming free.
I highly recommend Endless Summer.

Spectacular
We choose to visit Southern Namibia including the Kalahari Desert, Fish River Canyon, Kolemanskop, Luderitz, the colossal dunes of Sossusvlei. Swakopmund, Spitzkoppe and Windhoek. Each destination offered great scenery, wildlife, beautiful landscapes and wonderful experiences. Our private guided tour was expertly organized by Indigo Safaris of London. We had the best and most personable driver/guide assigned by their Namibian partner agency Namvic.

Our group of 8 had a phenomenal safari experience, exceeding all expectations.
We had an incredible safari experience in August 2022, entire trip arranged by Clyde at Tailormade Africa. The lodging accommodations, food, guides, hospitality and daily itineraries far exceeded our expectations. Most importantly, we were able to see not only so many animals, but also actions ranging from lion mating, chase and kill x3, and wildebeest herd river-crossing x5, etc in barely 12 days. I highly recommend the service.
