"Splendid 2 day in Maasai Mara with Sky Ward Tours and Travel"
My first contact with Skywide Tours and Travel was with David, who was constantly in touch with us during the planning and booking phase of our safari. David was very professional and effective and was willing to go all the way in making us have the best weekend getaway. The actual trip with our guide, Mr Wamachanga, was incredible and unique in the sense that we got to see the big five. He even spotted 5 lions in the park during the evening game drive which was exclusive as it was only us who spotted them.
We also appreciate the services of Sarova Mara Hotel as the rooms and facilities were clean,nice and the staff lovely. The food was also fantastic.

Worth every penny!
Our 4-day camping safari was an experience my boyfriend and I will never forget! Not only did we see so many different animals on our game drives, but we also learned so much about each of them thanks to our driver and new friend, Godson! His humor and knowledge of the region made the trip extra special and we were so sad to say good-bye to him when he dropped us off at the airport. Our chef, Danny, made incredible food and kept us very well fed! Overall, this safari was amazing and surpassed our expectations - especially during the rainy/'off' season!

Flash is an excellent choice for your Safari
My wife and I have used Flash for two Safaris. Magda and company was very professional and trustworthy and delivered more than agreed on. They are experts in accommodations and areas that are a must while on Safari in Tanzania. I love to photograph wildlife and birds. The guides used by Flash and very knowledgeable about what wildlife will be where, when. Flash is also affordable compaired to many company’s fare. You won’t regret using Flash for you Safari.

Amazing tour and guide!
My two friends and I had the most wonderful time with Wildlife safaris. I did a lot of research in booking a Safari for our South Africa trip and chose them because they seemed like the most experienced and extensive company in our price range--we weren't wrong in doing so. Communication was prompt and thorough. Christine and Jonathan did a wonderful job answering any and all of our questions and requests, as well as making sure we knew exactly what to expect. This is a feat when communicating solely through email, 10,000 miles away!
The safari itself was nothing short of magical, greatly in part to our safari guide Sue who quickly felt like the 4th member of our group. She did a wonderful job finding all of the Big 5 for us but most importantly showed us a deep appreciation for all of the other wonderful flora and fauna which you are surrounded by. She was extremely knowledgeable about the Bush and also just a wonderfully interesting woman to talk to in general. Definitely request her! We chose to do the optional Bush Walk which was great. Due to scheduling conflicts, we had to do it on our very first afternoon in the park, right after our drive from Johannesburg. They warned us that they prefer to do it at the end of the safari so that you have more information to attach to the experience and we definitely understand why. Nevertheless, getting to walk around in the bush was still one of our favorite parts of the trip. As for the open vehicle drives, definitely make sure you are ready bright and early for the morning drives--the earlier the better as the sunrises were amazing and the animal encounters we had during those times were even better.
Accommodations were great. We spent our first two nights in Skukuza and our third night in Berg en Dal. Lodging in the SanParks bungalows are definitely economic but are none the less clean and provided with plenty of amenities . Plus, the campsite feel created a real sense of comaraderie amongst the visitors. Food was good--nothing to really rave about but greatly exceeded my expectations for a campsite! There were two memorable foods which you must try if you can: If staying at Skukuza--don't pass up on the chance to get a steak at Cattle Baron. My party and I tried several dishes during our two nights there. Some were hit or miss but the STEAKS were some of the best any of us had had in a long time. If staying at Berg en Dal--there will be a rest stop close to camp which serves these amazing Roosterkoek sandwiches, grilled fresh on the spot. Soooo good.
Overall, we had a wonder 4 days with Wildlife Safaris and immediately left Kruger for the rest of our trip wishing we were back in the Bush. Thank you!

Unforgattable Experience
We (myself, my wife and my daughter) had a safari in the Masai Mara. It was an unimaginable experience. we could see lions, giraffes, zebras, hippos, hyenas, elephants and many other animals in their own habitat. we will never forget this unique experience. I am fanatic by National Geografic documentaries and my dream came true. the spirit company of Kenya has rendered a good service and everything that was combined was fulfilled which is why I am commending this compliment.

Great budget tour
I was looking for a 2 day budget safari over a weekend while on a work trip to Kenya and this gave me everything I wanted. Communications in advance were fine, and I was collected from my hotel as expected. Joined a small group, helpful guide/driver Simon and an excellent trip to Masiai Mara. We were lucky enough to see lions, elephants, hippos & a hyena as well as giraffes, zebras, antelope and more.
The only thing I'd say is that the actual tour wasn't run by Okoa because they put me with others to form a viable group size so we didn't actually stay at the camp I expected (stayed at Lenchada instead of Mitimingi) (which is why I've given it 4/5 rather than 5/5). But it was all fine for the price and exactly what I wanted!

Reliable and honest
I booked a tour of the volcano in Virunga NP and had a great experience. The business is located in Gisenyi and Goma and they focus on DRC tours, although they have contacts with operators in East Africa. They were generally honest and reliable when it came to pricing, timings and visas. A relatively new operator that will continue to gain experience of running tours in this particularly complicated country to travel in.

Our driver Silas went literally the extra mile to see the big 5!
Last February me and my girlfriend booked a 3 day safari with Free Africa Tours and Safaris. Silas was our driver and he is not only a nice guy, he also knows where to find the animals. Because Silas has his own company and doesn’t work for a big company he is more focussed on letting you spot the big 5.
He found multiple animals as the first one and wasn’t driving after the other tour-vans. I would definitely recommend booking with a 4x4 jeep for the full experience!
