Customer sensitive and friendly
My sister and I had an amazing 5 nights safari with Meander Africa safaris. Ebby handled our requests, she promptly provided responses to all our questions and concerns. The level of professionalism was top notch and this made us book through Meander Africa. On the day of arrival we were picked up by Fred - a very friendly guide. He was our guide for the entire trip and he is so knowledgeable and very very cheerful. He is a very good spotter and ensured we got nice photos of animals. The game drives were fantastic. We saw almost all the big five, we managed to see a kill by the cheetars. The camps we stayed in are so beautiful, the food and staff were all wonderful and all made our stay in memorable – in all the parks we visited, that is Samburu, Lake Nakuru and the famous Masaai Mara.
Thank you so much Meander Africa for the memorable safari. Next time we will book more days and we highly recommend them’’

Very affordable Safari
Last year we booked a safari with Sunset Adventure and it was amazing. Safari in Tanzania is very expensive and we were looking for an affordable trip. We did a 5 day safari to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We loved the lodges and our guide Ben was truly amazing! He was so much fun to be around and he knew lots of stories about the parks and animals. Thanks to Ben the safari was unforgettable.

Johannesburg-Kruger-Mosambique-Swasiland- Bayala Game Reserve
We booked a roundtrip with Amazing Africa and all our expectations where exceeded! The communication was easy and they really understood what we wanted. We loved the booked accommodation and the itinerary and the recommended day trips were planned very well, and the Safaris absolutely amazing! We had a very good mixture of different actions (safaris, sightseeing, walks) and enough time to relax. We were really lucky to find an agency who knows Africa so well and could answer all our questions an meet our needs.

Unforgettable Trip of a Lifetime!
Where do I even begin?! I did the 8-day Northern Migration Luxury Safari with my dad in mid-October. The special rate they offered was very competitive and were similar to those of a “camping” safari. To sum up our experience: stress-free, seamless, exciting, mind-blowing, an absolute trip of life-time! I highly recommend requesting Solomon as your guide (see below).
For a more detailed account: Lilian made booking and payment super easy
and provided timely updates and all the information we needed to prepare for travel. Our driver and a representative (Jackie!) from Zohar was waiting to welcome us at the airport, and Lilian and our guide, Solomon, met with us to go over the itinerary and arrange any special requests we had.
The next day, we were off on our adventure!
All of our lodges that Zohar booked for us were exceptional for the spacious, luxurious rooms and bathrooms with every possible amenity, beautiful grounds, and facilities with unique characteristics. Many were in nature where we could see animals from the grounds. All lodges and “tented camps” (very luxurious) with the exception of one had excellent service and amazing food, and Solomon worked with staff to get us either bagged lunches or hot lunches for the road so we didn’t miss any action on safari days. We never had to worry about a thing and were always well-fed!
Both Tarangire NP and Lake Manyara were great experiences to build-up to what we would see in the Serengeti. Solomon found us some tree-climbing lions at Lake Manyara and lots of elephants, plus a gorgeous cheetah in Tarangire.
On Day 3, we arrived in the central Serengeti...a magical place that never ceases to amaze! Just 10 minutes after entering the park, we saw a lion calling out to his pride. Just a few minutes down the road, a pride of 10 lions, walking around and spreading out to communicate in a telegraph-like manner. Just 15 minutes after leaving the lions, we spotted a cheetah on a rock looking out at some gazelle. We watched and followed her as she went in for a kill! It was SUCH an exciting thing to witness. And then hyenas stole her kill away and we watched as they fought over the best bits. Solomon got the BEST spot for viewing the cheetah hunt and drove us around to watch the hyenas after. Another 10 minutes down the road, we found a momma with two lion cubs feasting on a warthog and then licking themselves clean. Another 10 minutes, we witnessed 3 lions attempt to hunt a warthog (pumba got away!). Another 10, and we see an endangered Black Rhino as the sun is going down! And this was all IN THE FIRST DAY in the Serengeti. Wow!!
In the Northern Serengeti, Solomon used his local contacts to stay updated with any potential Mara River crossings of wildebeests for the Great Migration. Without these contacts and his 6th sense for animal behavior, we would have missed a crossing of 4,000 the very first morning we went to spot them! It was INCREDIBLE and again, Solomon put us right in the middle of the crossing just at the edge of the bank to where the herds were circling around our vehicle. Only 3 other vehicles were there. I got fantastic photos and videos! Then, Solomon set us up for success again as we followed 3 herds of wildebeests that we saw meeting up to prepare for a crossing. We were able to follow the herds down the river just in time to see the crossing begin, from a different perspective this time, before meeting them at the head of the crossing for a front and center viewing. This time, about 9,000 animals crossed! Solomon did it again!!
The viewings of the animals in the north was just fantastic! I’ve never seen so many species together all in one scene and in such abundance! It reminded me of the Lion King! Throughout the trip, we saw 3 leopards, specifically because Solomon knew how to spot their hanging tails in the trees (I couldn’t have!). One leopard was super close in a tree and we had him all to ourselves (no other people around). Solomon was so knowledgeable about all the animals and I learned SO many cool things about each one (an experience unique to my other safaris). He was also a great photographer (this is harder to find than you would think, even for guides I’ve had in trips past) and always got awesome photos of me with the animals in the background!!
Our final day in Ngorongoro Crater was amazing as well, we saw lions 5 different times, a herd of elephants with little babies, and another endangered Black Rhino! I would also highly recommend the optional crater rim walk- we got to get really close to a herd of giraffes on foot for some great photos, and the views of the crater floor are just fantastic! Felt so nice to stretch our legs after so many amazing game drives.
Make no mistake, you will have a fabulous adventure going to the Tanzania, but booking with Zohar will make it above and beyond all your wildest dreams and you’ll never have to worry about a thing, except for how many leopards & rhinos you’ll spot

My Memorable Safari experience with Meander Africa Safaris
We had a wonderful 5 nights safari in Kenya. We visited Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara organized by Meander Africa Safaris. The booking process was so smooth, all our questions were answered through emails and whatsapp calls by Ebby. She was so patient and she recommended we stay in a private conservancy in the Mara. Best recommendation ever as we got to enjoy the best game drives in the conservancy with limited jeeps and you get to close view of animals. Our guide Evans was so knowlegeable, in 3 days we had seen all the big five. We saw white Rhinos in Lake Nakuru. Plenty of wildlife in the Mara – it was absolutely wonderful. We even got to visit the masaai village and get to learn a lot about their culture, their dancing and seeing them jump so high was the highlight of everything.
If you are looking to book a safari, book through Meander Africa, amazing people, very proffesional – Fred was always cheerful and made sure we were had a wonderful time during our safari’

Excellent service and tour
In this covid time (no crowds), it was an excellent opportunity to visit Massai Mara National Reserve with Go East Safari.
Tour well organized, competent and excellent staff. A special thanks to Martha for the patience in the exchange of dates in this complicated time. Not easy but it was possible to do it :)
