Fun and helpful operator who is well informed and equipped on matters Safari, highly recommendable.
We were going on a safari trip to Kenya and initially I contacted four different agencies to get their quotes. In terms of price, the three agencies were roughly the same, but when we looked more closely at the offers, African Sermon Safaris seemed to contain the most and with the highest quality. So we chose them and had a fantastic trip where we were well taken care of all the way.
The information before the trip was accurate and appropriate and was followed up afterwards.
Our travel consultant was Daniel, who was both very helpful, able to tell us about the places we wanted to travel to and overall a pleasure to deal with. I recommend using this company and John Kabiro, the amazing safari guide.

offers immersive and captivating safari journeys that showcase the breathtaking wildlife/landscape
I had the most incredible experience during my safari in Masai Mara with an amazing guide Charles Sharuq. His deep knowledge of the wildlife and the area made every moment exciting and educational. Not only did he spot animals that I would have easily missed, but his stories and explanations added a whole new layer of understanding to the safari.
Their dedication to ensuring we had the best experience possible was evident in every aspect. His friendly and approachable demeanor made the entire journey feel like exploring with a knowledgeable friend.
This safari experience exceeded all my expectations, largely thanks to the exceptional driver,guide and friend Charlse Sharuq from Safari Africa. I couldn't have asked for a better companion to share this adventure with. If you're looking for a safari that combines thrilling wildlife encounters with a knowledgeable and personable guide, I wholeheartedly recommend them and Charles S.

Amazing experience
We booked a 6-Day Safari. The program is very good and balanced. Our Driver was Emanuel. He was always friendly and kind. He showed ous many animals and provided us with all the information we asked for. He always did his best to make this safari amazing. Eric always stayed in contact with us.
The accommodations were good. I personally loved the camp in the serengeti the most.
We saw many many animals, the highlights were a cheetah with cups, two leopards, lion cups an Hyenas eating.
Also the experience with the Hadzabe Tribe was amazing. We visited them, shoot with bow an arrow and danced with them. It was interesting to see the life of this tribe.
Everthing was amazing. We had an unique experience. We would always book the Safari with MsangaiAdventures again! Thank you so much!

Extremely knowledgeable, very professional and always on hand to answer (and solve) all queries.
Darren was introduced to me by a good friend in SA. Compass Odyssey's reputation it seems, was well established.
They lived up to that reputation over and over again!
We wanted a safari experience in Greater Kruger, Zambia and Zimbabwe and, although I had previously worked in Southern Africa for many years, we decided to let CO (Compass Odyssey) put together a trip of a lifetime. They did not disappoint!
Once Darren and I agreed on a budget (in our case, upper mid-scale) he went ahead and developed a wonderful itinerary, the experiences from which, we will talk-about and reflect on for the rest of our lives!
Darren was very patient with our needs. Initially, friends said they would join us on the trip, and Darren spent many hours trying to find lodges that could take a group of nine! In the end, we just travelled as one family which assisted the process immensely. Not once did Darren show any frustration at the number of people, which was changing constantly in the early planning.
CO also has a great advantage in being able to provide ground support teams for airport transfers, safari transfers and support expertise at national borders; Alan in Johannesburg, Mortimer and his family who assisted us in Zambia and Zimbabwe. Wonderful people and so less stressful when one has local expertise to assist with these processes!
If ever we have another opportunity to travel to southern Africa, I would not hesitate to call CO again to put something together. The trip was spectacular, the value excellent, and they are fantastic people to deal with!

The most beautiful holiday in the world with the guides of Lappet faced Safaris.
An unforgettable trip, we wanted to celebrate our 25 years of marriage and we trusted Francisco and his staff and we did well. From the accommodations to the safari, to the education, empathy and availability of the people, all impeccable. I am so happy that I will carry this experience in my heart for life. I highly recommend this agency for professionalism and attention to the customer. Special thanks is a big hug to our guide Noel. A special boy ❤️. Thanks guys for everything.

Excellent service and first class safari trip
From day one Clyde was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He arranged our safari at short notice and in terms of accommodation and guiding it worked seamlessly. We had originally thought of going to Kenya, but after talking to Clyde and setting out what we wanted he had no hesitation in recommending we consider Tanzania and boy was he right. Great trip and looking forward to booking the next one with Tailormade Africa

So much easier than I thought
Booking with Viatu was a breeze. We used one of the trip templates that was on their website and we customised it to our liking. For the check out we had a few questions. Our travel consultant Alessandro looked after us every step of the way. He even explained everything to me in Spanish which was very helpful as Africa can be complex. We were a bit concerned about the cancellation policies during the Omicron wave - especially since my friend and I arrived in South Africa from two different countries. That, however, was never an issue. The whole booking was flexible including hotels, car rental, safari lodge and our activities. Also, the whole digital travel itinerary turned out to be amazing. We didn't have any issues at all. Alessandro and his team recommended wonderful lodges and restaurants along the way.
We had many highlights but we particularly enjoyed the Mosaic Lagoon Lodge in Stanford near Hermanus. The staff was so lovely, the location incredible and the food to die for. The pineapple house in Cape Town, Seapoint was also a wonderful recommendation. The staff is so welcoming. Their design is refreshing and they make a huge effort to be sustainable in all aspects.
We absolutely loved our trip and can't wait for the next one! Thank you, Alessandro & Team Viatu.
Stress-free Comfortable Transfer
My experience on the Safari Link Transfer Vehicle was a comfortable, stress-free one! The booking process was quick and easy, and my many queries were answered promptly despite my messages being sent outside of normal office hours. The drivers communicated well, and I appreciated the quick comfort stops on route. I am happy to recommend Safari Link Shuttle Service to others and will gladly use them myself again, in the future. Thank you, Safari Link!
