Excellent recommendations and value - Ruben Jacobs helped us have an amazing trip!!
Very good value for the two camps we stayed in. We even received a complementary upgrade to a deluxe family suite with private pool at Kapama Southern Camp (we had been waitlisted for two other villas that did not come through). Ruben worked with us on our plans - and provided some great suggestions to reserves we had not heard of. We stayed at Honeyguide Tented Safari camps (Manyaleti Private Game Reserve with open borders with Kruger N.P.) - a very authentic and wonderful experience and a good value. The animals gather right by the central lodge, and the elephant drink from the pool so you can watch them from 12 feet away over breakfast! And the waterning hole nearby attracted many animals that you could view from the deck or the observation hide. The guides were amazing (Dan was very good and tracked down a leopard on foot with his tracker so that we could view her). All of the wildlife viewing was excellent and we enjoyed encountering elephants on our walk to the lodge! We also stayed at Kapama Private Game Reserve Southern Camp for several nights. This was another excellent camp, a deluxe camp with awesome staff and facilities in a very large and scenic private reserve. Our wildlife viewing experience here was outstanding as well. We enjoyed the elephant interaction at their Camp Jubilani orphanage - where they care for endangered and orphaned elephants.
Ruben was very helpful, responsive and well informed on qualities, value and the attributes of various park options. I recommend him and his firm for other travellers to the Kruger Park area. We had a great trip!

A fantastic experience
We booked a 10 days safari in Tanzania and Kenya with Monkey Adventures. Our budget for the trip was very constrained, and we were lucky to find Monkey Adventures packages in the list of results.
Due to the park fees, the package costs are all high, but Monkey’s rates are one of the best in the market.
The safari comprised of 2 legs, a 5 days safari in Tanzania and a 4 days Kenya safari. It was a great experience. Banana was our guide in Tanzania, while Ken was the guide in Kenya. Both the guides conducted our tour exceptionally well. Their knowledge about the place and wildlife was impeccable. We could see a lot of animals, like cheetahs, Lions, a lone leopard, hippos, a herd of Elephants in a waterhole and many more. We could capture silhouette images of Elephants as we spotted them moving at sunset, while we were heading back. It was one of the best experiences in our recent times.
Monkey gave us a Landcruiser in Tanzania, and we had the option to book a Van or a Landcruiser in Kenya. Eventually we went for the Landcruiser, due to a few recommendations from my friends.
We had great rooms booked for us. The food on all days were great. It would be great if they could have more fruits included in the menu. One of our group members was a Vegan, and we had mentioned the same during the booking. Monkey Adventures ensured that vegan food was available at every place we stayed.
It was definitely a great experience and I would highly recommend them.
Cheers!

Fantastic experience
Communication with Karibu was excellent, Robert was extremely helpful, quick and clear about every aspect of the trip. He also did some last-minute changes the day before upon my request. Really grateful for that. James, our guide, was great. He put in a lot of effort to find the Big 5 for us and was super knowledgeable, giving us lots of information about the Mara and its animals as we went along. We really appreciated him looking out for us as we were two girls travelling alone. Overall, I really recommend the experience but I would do it for 2 nights next time, not 1 - as it was a long drive there and back from Nairobi.

This is the second safari I've taken with Natural World and I could not be more pleased!
Everything about this experience is spot-on, at a really affordable price!
1. You get very quick and helpful responses in your planning from the team on the ground
2. The drivers arrive to pick you up and take you on your adventure! The drivers are so knowledgeable and so very experienced.
They know the roads and they know the safari lands. They'll be so intentional to give you the very best experience possible.
3. The lodging is beautiful -- just a dream! The food and amenities are wonderful. A lovely respite after being on safari for the day.
4. The safari experience itself can't be beat. The drivers are connected to one another, sharing what they see and encouraging others to come find it as well. You will be in awe and in wonder throughout the experience. I highly recommend the Masai Mara 3 day/2 night tour, to include an afternoon safari after you've arrived for lunch, then the sunrise safari on your last morning. Magical!
The only thing I haven't seen is that evasive Leopard!!
Everything about the experience with Natural World is WORTH IT!
This is a once-in a lifetime experience (or twice, if you're super fortunate!) and you would not want to let the opportunity pass!
Natural World is a SOLID choice that will provide you with a wonderful experience!
Cheers to Safari with Natural World!

Excellence Guaranteed!
My family and I go on safari annually, and have consistently contracted Sun Safaris to assist whenever we head to Southern Africa. The fact that we are repeat clients indicate the level professionalism and insider knowledge that Natasha and the team at Sun Safaris have of the region.
Our most recent trip was to celebrate my wedding, and we elected to do 5 nights in Mana Pools, with camps in the African Bush Camps portfolio with their recommendation. What a stupendous Safari we had! Truly remarkable and with enough picturesque moments to fill our wedding album.
Natasha was responsive throughout the entire booking process, and even helped us with upgrades to the honeymoon suites in one camp, and a more exclusive family style camp in the other.
We know to trust the opinions offered - the last trip we took was to celebrate my brother’s wedding to Botswana and that trip still remains high on our list of most memorable Safari moments.
Looking forward to the next trip with them!
