Excellent Value
A very well-organized safari covering all the highlights of the Northern Circuit in 5 days. Every aspect of the safari (itinerary, accommodations, staff, etc) was superb. Our guide/driver, Damien, was great and went above and beyond to ensure good sightings.

Professional, knowledgeable - delivered an amazing experience!
I feel like I can never go on another safari ever again because this was such an amazing experience. The drivers were knowledgeable and friendly - and went above and beyond to make it a trip of a life time. The animals were out on force during an unusually cold snap, but the drivers were willing to stop whenever we wanted, despite this being to take a photo of the 300th elephant or giraffe. The hot water bottles in camp were a great touch!

Review about Hwange National Park by Mary
Wonderful amount of wildlife around, many birds and animal species.

Unbelievably incredible trip!
Words cannot begin to describe how incredible our trip was. Caesar and Emma were amazing guides. They went way above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. The hotels were very nice and the service was spectacular. The wildlife was incredible.

Wonderful wildlife, but poor conditions for its people
Victoria Falls was amazing - the sound and power of the water was incredible. Hwange National Park was a wonderful experience, numbers and variety of animals was fantastic. Elephants, giraffes, impalas, baboons, zebras, lions, spider monkeys, water buffalo, wildebeest, sables, ostriches, crocodiles, hippopotamus etc.
Cresta Spray View Hotel and Hwange Lodge were both amazing, really good hotels, with friendly, helpful staff and very clean and comfortable.
Mmilo Tours and African Safari staff went out of their way to make it a fantastic holiday.
Scenery was good, but the roads were awful, as was the litter and rubbish strewn everywhere.
People were very friendly, but obviously struggling to survive, signs of poverty everywhere.

Honeymoon Safari
Robin planned a spectacular honeymoon to Botswana, Zimbabwe and South Africa in June 2023. Our two weeks were magical, filled with incredible game viewing opportunities and special intimate moments. All of our transfers were seamless and the camps were magnificent.
Robin went above and beyond when United cancelled our flight at midnight from the tarmac, hopping on the phone late at night with us to provide guidance and updating all of our logistics upon arrival. She also took significant time after the trip helping us with insurance claims to reclaim the costs incurred by having to purchase a next day Delta flight when United didn't have any flights available for days.
We could not recommend Safari Ventures enough!

Wandering Thru made my dream come true!
Look no further if you are planning a safari to Africa!! The amazing, knowledgeable, friendly staff at Wandering Thru were great from my very first email to them. Ale responded immediately and she was so incredibly helpful in answering my numerous questions. Tayla filled in promptly when Ale was on safari and between the two of them (and some other wonderful people behind the scenes), we arranged my dream safari to the border of Kruger National Park in South Africa!! It was very easy on my part, and they did the rest! We booked fantastic Tristan to be our private guide throughout, and he was so very kind, friendly, informative, patient and down to earth! With Tristan's experience and expertise, along with the skills of our awesome guides & trackers at Nkorho and Ngala, we were graced with the presence of leopards, giraffe, rhinos, buffalos, zebra, hippos, elephants, lions, impala, kudu, nyala, a honey badger, hyenas, wild dogs and their pups and even the white lioness and her little white cub!!! From start to finish, I trusted Wandering Thru completely and they truly made my lifelong dream of going on safari come true!! If I could give them a million stars, I would! I recommend them to the highest possible degree and to the INCREDIBLE team at Wandering Thru, you have all of our deepest thanks, appreciation and gratitude!!!

Very attentive and great communicator.
I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Justus was a real pro in understanding what I was looking for and providing it. Charles, my driver, was amazing in both his graciousness and ability to spot wildlife. The room was large and comfortable and if you enjoy buffet dining, you would enjoy the meals. While wine is not served by the glass, you can order a bottle or cocktail. All-in-all, a very enjoyable experience.

Top class operation. Couldn’t find any faults with the service!
Having been on other trekking experiences I can safely say Meijo safaris is the most professional, friendly and accommodating company I have had the pleasure of dealing with. Daudi and the boys looked after us from the minute we landed until we departed Tanzania. No stone was left unturned! Our guides on both safari and Kilimanjaro hike were very friendly and professional and did everything they could to make us feel at home. The value we received was unrivalled. I was very impressed by how the team felt like a team of brothers from guide to porters it was all one big family. A special mention to the efforts made to reduce environmental impact and make the experience sustainable. Full marks for the experience I will be back!

Beautiful & Wild Safari Experience!
My fiancé and I had an amazing 4-day, 3-night safari through the Kruger Safari Co. We stayed all nights at the Tremisana lodge, and I was happy with this choice. It afforded us three safari days in the game reserve and one into Kruger National Park. The only thing I wish I did was book the 5-day trip! I wasn't ready to leave and was hoping to find that elusive leopard! The food was delicious and my partner and I were always looking forward to meals. Be aware, the bar tab is added up at the end of your stay and is cash only. If you're traveling in July (Winter) be sure to bring some warm clothes and a wind-breaker. The long drive to Kruger gets chilly!
