Tanzania is exactly what I dreamed it would be like
Being at the Serengeti and Ngorogoro crater were spectacular. The most amazing animal experience ever. These places deliver in every safari fantasy I’ve had. Having a driver and tour made the experience relaxing to just enjoy the scenery. My group was small with 6. Less is ideal since everyone will have different opinions on how long to stay at each sight. I had too little time with some animals.

Helpful and friendly consulting, support and organisation to find the right safari tour
I liked the way we could find with the organisator in discussions a good safari package related to wishes, timeframe and budget.
The tour was interesting, well organized and we could taste a little bit of all things: country, wilderness, people, safari feeling and wild animals. Of course we would like to see more, but realistically there are some limits, regarding the sheer size of the country and game reserves.
We enjoyed the whole time, touring to several places to watch the wilderness, meet some people and the stay overnight at nice places, good local food, friendly and helpful services, in all a very good time!
I will come back again!

George exceeds expectations with his knowledge, warmth, professionalism & passion for his country.
Visiting Tanzania from Western Canada was a huge adventure for our family (6 adults, 2 children), none of whom had visited Africa before. Very soon after George met us at the airport, we knew we were in very caring and experienced hands. Although the overall sites we were to visit over the next 10 days were predetermined, George was very keen to customize within that framework to meet the interests of the group. He knew when and where we were most likely to view the animals we wanted to see. Everyone was given as much time as desired to take photos. We always felt safe and comfortable as we visited each location, thinking that particular day had been the best, only to be topped by the next day's sites and experiences. George's extensive knowledge of wildlife behaviour, along with his passion for the history and culture of his homeland took this adventure to a level that far exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend George Munge and Northland African Adventures to anyone who wants to visit this beautiful and amazing country.

Very professional and friendly tour at a affordable price
Doing the safari with Wild Wings was one the the best decisions in our South Africa trip.
The booking process was very flexible and patient with our requests. The itineraries were very clear and thorough. Even though we communicated only via emails, I felt at ease during the whole process
The tour itself was really well organized. Nikki, our guide was extremely knowledgeable, full of energy, very friendly and always kept the guests needs first. She managed the logistics of whole 5 day safari very well. As an additional bonus, we had an outdoor catering company for the meals (I don't think that is a regular feature)
We managed to see quite a lot wild life, but were unlucky to miss the leopard and cheetah.
All in all it was a great experience that I would definitely recommend at a good price

Exceptional planning - flawless execution!
Anya at Pembury planned our April 2019 trip nine months in advance providing many options and variations. The trip was unforgetable. Every step of the way was planned to the nth degree leading to seamless execution at each stage. Accommodation, car rental, tour guides, golf booking and last minute adjustments were laid out in detail. On arrival at each stop, the accommodations were fantastic, the reception by everyone meeting us friendly, courteous and beyond helpful! Last minute adjustments were taken care of without stress or any hick-ups. And the things we saw, the places we went and the experiences we had made for the trip of a lifetime. Kudos to Damen at Phinda Game Preserve and Gramwell our tour guide around Cape Town who Pembury set us up with and who went out of their way to make the experiences with them particularly unforgetable. Highest recommendations for Anya Visser and Pembury Tours.

Excellent from start to finish
I couldn't recommend Wayfairer Travel any higher, they were outstanding. I would definitely put that down to the people I interacted with. I had placed enquiries with a number of travel agencies (through the Responsible Travel portal) on a Sunday night and Cat was immediately on the ball, contacting me on Monday morning. We spent 45 mins on the phone and she asked so many detailed questions. So when it came to putting our varied itinerary together she was spot on!
She was incredibly engaging, professional, responsive and a pleasure to work with.
(Other travel agents responded days later and I was very happy to tell them they had missed the boat!)
Once our trip was booked we were then in touch with Carmen who was also great.
I felt that they were available at any time if i had any issues, questions, queries and really had confidence in their support.
Carmen checked in with us a couple of days into our trip and also after the trip where I was very happy to feed back on the different experiences we had.
I would highly recommend Wayfairer to anybody!

Amazing support from ATC
Got in touch with ATC online for our trip to South Africa. Andy (Our consultant) was super helpful.He understood our requirements and worked out the best possible options for us. He was patient to answer all our queries and was very honest with his opinions. The safari was amazing and the lodge was super comfortable as well. Would highly recommend using them for your south Africa trip

Awesome nature and fantastic service….!!
After such diversified experience from all corner of East Africa with Kenya walking survivor safaris. We have just returned from a this mind-blowing safari , arranged and done by kwss. We like to travel with a private company but were unsure if we could navigate three distinct parks in Kenya and latter go for a gorilla trek in Uganda. Kenya walking proved to be a valuable and trusted advisor in coordinating the logistics, mapping out a clear and seamless itinerary, and offering great insider information and tips to further enrich our touring. As a result, we were really able to sit back and enjoy our trip from start to finish, stress free. It was full time of enjoyment and anything else was out of mind only adventure was the word and our song during this great visit since kwss was also extremely responsive in remedying the situation so we had no reason to worry. During our trip, they checked in with us to make sure everything was going smoothly. A nice gesture that reinforced their commitment to customer satisfaction and gave us added assurance they we had a support network to fall back should the need arise. So vast accommodation and great guide.

Absolutely fantastic safari. Brilliant guides, tasty food and amazing Big 5 game-viewing!
I was thoroughly impressed by Armadillo Overland Safaris. Right from the beginning, they responded to our enquiry timeously and planned our trip to our specifications. Everything ran smoothly and without any hitches. 'Truck Norris' was a very impressive vehicle and allowed us to see some incredible Big 5 sightings, as the vehicle is much higher than normal safari vehicles. The food was wholesome and delicious and many laughs were had around the campfire at night. The guides were knowledgeable, extremely friendly, and managed to spot the entire Big 5 as well as a rare sighting of Wild Dog!
I would thoroughly recommend using this tour company, they completely exceeded our expectations.
