Great experience in the Kgalagadi
Our eight days in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park with Legend Safaris were great. Our guide, Arun, was friendly, knowledgeable and looked after us well. As well as knowing his stuff on the local wildlife, he was able to provide tips on getting the best photos of our sightings, and he is a great cook!
Our trip was split between the three camps of Twee Rivieren, Nossob and Mata Mata. We saw a lot of birdlife - becoming reasonably adept at identifying the ones we saw most often - as well as Oryx, Springbok, Kudu, Red Hartebeest, Eland, Honey badger, Jackel, Cape Fox, Bat-eared fox, Ostrich, Hyena, Wildebeest, Giraffe, Mongoose, Meerkat, Ground squirrel, Spring hare.
We saw a cheetah from a distance on the ridge, but had two great lion sightings. The first, spotted on the ridge, and heading towards the riverbed. Arun knew he was likely to be heading to the waterhole, and got us into the prime spot at the waterhole. We also saw a pride of lions on the day we departed the park - 1 male and five females. My wife was really chuffed to spot a caracal as sightings are apparently quite rare, and we got a good photo of it.
In short the Kgalagadi is a great place to visit, and Legend Safaris were a good choice for us. Its a long way to get there (especially if like us, you drive from Cape Town!) but well worth it.

Incredible Serengeti and Ngorongoro Safari
Had a fantastic safari expertly organised by Allan Kimaro. Allan came to my accommodation prior to the safari to confirm all the details and make sure everything was arranged as necessary. We went on a four day 3 night trip that included Serengeti National Park as well as Ngorongoro Crater. We saw lots and lots of animals. Personal highlights were the herd of elephants, cheetah and rock python in the Serengeti! Allan arranged for us to camp in the centre of the Serengeti on one night and the rim of the crater on the final night - an amazing experience with zebras amongst the tents on the crater rim. Allan arranged for a cook to join us for the whole safari and the breakfast, lunch and dinner provided each day was delicious (chakula kizuri in Swahili!). The distances in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro are vast but our driver made the journey very comfortable for us. Safari in Tanzania was an incredible experience and we are grateful to Kashi African Safari for organising such a memorable trip for us.

Fun and Adventure in Tanzania with my Daughters
I am mother of two teenagers and I decided to take them on Tanzania Safari to Tarangire, Manyara, Ngorongoro and the Serengeti to see the wildebeest migration. I booked with Kilimanjaro Wonders Explorer Safari who provided excellent services. The company’s employees and in particular Teacher the owner were very helpful. They provided all the options for safaris that a family could go on, and they helped with choosing the best accommodations. They also took care of our luggage transfer. I was very happy with the services, and I looked forward to taking the safari with my daughters.
Teacher gave us with knowledgeable guide, Moses. My daughters and I were very happy with Moses. He is an expert on the wildlife of Tanzania. He educated us on the whole cycle of the wildebeest migration. He took us to the parks and in particular northern Serengeti where the migration was taking place. The poor animals had to cross the river which was full of crocodiles. The crocodiles snapped their huge mouths in the air trying to catch the wildebeests. It was amazing to see that wonder of nature.
Kilimanjaro Wonders Explorer Safari provided five star accommodations. My daughters and I were very pleased with the properties that we had all through our safari and particularly the Lemala Mara which was located very close to the route taken by the migrating wildebeest. It was awesome!
I will definitely be travelling with Kilimanjaro Wonders Explorer Safari in the future and I highly recommend Kilimanjaro Wonders Explorer Safari for your family’s trip.

Exhilarating safari for amazing value
This was our first safari and because we were on a budget we werent sure what to expect. The offer we received from Lennard was by far the best value while having the most dynamic itinerary.
We were very pleasantly surprised by how nice the accommodation was...spacious, comfortable and in an absolutely stunning setting.
One the first day we were taken on an evening river safari where we were delighted to see (and hear!) Many hippos and crocodiles. It was a super exciting start to our trip and our boat guide was very engaging and knowledgeable.
On the second day we went on a game drive and were incredibly lucky to see an elephant within minutes of entering the park. Thanks to the skill of our driver Lennard we were able to see everything we wanted...zebras giraffes warthogs and even lions! Lennard was the perfect mix between ensuring we saw as many animals as possible while maintaining a respectful distance and not being intrusive. Because selous is one of the more underdeveloped parks we felt like we had the park almost to ourselves and felt very much immersed in nature.
On the third day we went on a walking safari where we were lucky to come across a whole herd of elephants. We also learned a lot.about the native plants insects and birds thanks to.our incredible guide.
We cant thank Lennard enough for taking such good care of us on our first safari. He made it an incredibly special and unforgettable.experience. 100% recommend this to others particularly younger travelers.

Very Well Organized Tour that was customized to our wishes to see the best parts of Kenya
Communication and responses were very quick within less than 24 hours no matter on the time of day or night providing all of the answers and details that we needed. The tour lived up to the expectations and much more. We had a fantastic time having a private tour just for the 2 of us with a very knowledgeable guide who stayed with us throughout the whole trip. The price of the private tour was very reasonable considering how much was included as part of this tour. I would recommend this tour company as they will cater to all of your needs and wishes as well as offer their expertise on the best ways to arrange the tour so you have the best time possible and unforgettable memories.

Just Like Our Second Honeymoon
Wild Secrets Safaris provides top notch services for trips. Their amazing reviews on TripAdvisor pulled us in and then we were hooked by the prompt and professional responses to our queries by Rashid. After I chose the kind of safari package that we we wanted for our 5th Anniversary, Rashid jumped right into action and took care of all the details. Rashid’s attention to details awed me. When we arrived in Tanzania, there was an amazing suite waiting for us. There was romantic lighting, flower petals on the bed, roses in a vase on the bedside table, a flute of non-alcoholic champagne on ice, and chocolates. We were so happy with the little details which made our anniversary memorable. It felt like we were back on our honeymoon. We were very excited to do the next activity that Rashid planned for us.
On the morning of our safari, Mussa, our guide, was there at the hotel doors ten minutes ahead of time waiting for us. He was so friendly with us that we immediately felt at ease with him. He was an excellent guide who spoke fluent English. Mussa loves nature and it just showed from the way he was talking about the animals and the birds we saw. He was very informative and educative. He also had a very keen eye, spotting animals that we couldn’t see with the first glance. He spotted a lioness that was hunting for prey. We saw so many different animals during our 6 day safari and had such a wonderful time in the accommodations that Rashid had booked for us. On each day of our trip, Mussa picked us up in a clean sparkling car.
Wild Secrets Safaris provides only the best for their clients. We couldn’t be happier with the wonderful experience that Rashid and Mussa of Wild Secrets Safaris provided for us. I recommend Wild Secrets Safaris as you will not regret it.
