Trip of a lifetime!
Everything was beyond expectations. Very welcoming and friendly staff. Wildlife was just from another world. Would come again and again if it was possible!

Epic landscape and lovely people
We did an 11 day wildlife, dunes and canyons trip, booked by Indigo safaris and organised locally by Chameleon safaris.
From the time we landed to the time we left, we saw amazing landscapes - it’s really a breathtaking variety of dunes, mountains, desert, canyons, and coast. I’d recommend Namibia highly just for the landscapes.
For wildlife, the drive up to Etosha national park is smooth. There are lots of gravely paths inside and out of Etosha (be ready for the “African massage”), but with a decent vehicle and a good driver, it’s all fine. In Etosha, we spotted lots of birds, rhinos, giraffes, ostrich, zebras and also a pack of lions and hyena from a distance, but really wildlife spotting is a game of time and patience (and this was our safari taster and so we have nothing to compare it with). Our guide Tinashe was excellent though in trying to make sure we see as many different animals in the two days of game driving in Etosha as possible. Also, we didn’t go in the peak season.
Everywhere we went, the places where we were staying were super comfortable, including the camping bits (it was a mix of lodges and camps) and the people. I’m a vegetarian, but still could find enough options in super markets for me.
There was no sense of the place being over touristy or people hounding tourists. It was more of a sense of appreciation of tourists for their contribution to the economy (of course you have to be a responsible tourist and appreciate that you are in the wild - in pure nature and not a park). So all in all the experience was very enjoyable, refreshing and peaceful.

Terrific Visit
This was a great trip to see natural wildlife and his natural and habitation. It was also a wonderful place to experience the local culture the scenery. The weather was terrific, and I felt safe the entire time; definitely will recommend a visit to Kenya .

Very professionel and friendly. I felt in good hands all the way.
I booked the one day gorilla visit. It was an amazing experience. Makario Safaris was very efficient from day one. Answered all our many questions, arranged a perfect schedule, comfortable transport and very kind and professionel driver and guide.
I would use Makario Safaris again.

Perfectly organized 20-day trip to the Pearl of Africa
We can highly recommend Home to Africa. We were on a 20-day trip with them. The itinerary was amazing. They adjusted the tour according to our wishes. In the end, we had the most amazing trip with so many different activites.
Our driver / guide, Karim, made our trip perfect. He drove us around safely while spotting tons of animals and in the meantime he also explained us so many things about the history, culture, nature and the wildlife of Uganda.
He made sure that all our lodges were spottless and that we always were served great food. If we had any wishes, Karim would take care of it.
Thank you for making our trip to Uganda such a wonderful and unforgettable experience.

Great company, great value, great trip...
Meru Slopes were fantastic from start to finish. I booked the 5 day budget safari with them and had my expectations exceeded at every step. Communications with Geofrey before arrival were easy and comprehensive, airport pickup and accommodation before and after the safari were exactly as promised and the trip itself was superb. Our driver and guide, Jacob, was very professional, entertaining and extremely eagle eyed, identifying wildlife before we could even pick them up with binoculars. I don't think he missed anything during our game drives and he made sure we got every last minute possible out of them whether starting at dawn or ending at sunset. Our "stomach engineer" Moshi was also excellent, making sure we always had plenty of quality food (including vegetarian options if preferred). Based on my experience, I strongly recommend Meru Slopes and I hope to be back with them for future trips.

Lordlugard was excellent, very knowledgeable and passionate
Great service from arriving in Arusha to dropping us back; excellent from start to finish. Accommodation, meals, transport was all great and the safari was incredible.
Cannot recommend the 5 day comfort safari and this company enough!

Safari of a lifetime
I took my daughters on a 4 day classic camping safari to the Kruger Park.
We booked with Wayne at The Kruger safari Co. They booked the transport, game drives, meals and tented accommodation. Having 2 teenage ladies with me I thought the camping would be below standard, but the camp was amazing. Mylord our guide was super cool and even braaied for us in the evening.
Proud to be a South African with the service we got.
