Fun tour of Cape Town area and an amazingly wonderful safari in Kruger National Park.
The was a very good tour. We had some initial misunderstanding about the total cost of the bush flights to the game area, and the pre-arranged flights were not very direct. Ethiopian Airlines also lost my luggage for almost the whole two weeks of the trip. Otherwise, we enjoyed the entire trip. We stayed at Spier Wine Estate in Stollenbosch, which was wonderful with great service and good wine. The accommodations were great. But the safari itself in Sabi Sands Game Reserve was an eye-opener. The accommodations at Dulini Leadwood Lodge were better than fantastic, and the wildlife viewing was better than I could have imagined. We had elephants and baboons sitting by our deck pool and there were constant antelope outside our door and windows. Really, I can't imagine a better safari than what we experienced. The tracker and ranger we had for four nights and days were bright and knowledgeable, and a lot of fun. They spoke very good English and knew a lot about the animals. We will always remember this trip.

Best safari in Africa
You should pick Tanzania for your Safari. Better also if the guide is Wilson Lucas. He is the best of the best.
Detail oriented, friendly and very professional. He has gain the respect of all the people of the area and this help a lot the safari experience.
We enjoy every moment, every picture every sunset.
We followed the Serengeti migration y visited all the parks of the área.
Wilson dedication for his clients is the success of his company.
All was better of what was discussed when we did our reservation.
We will go back for another Safari at any time with Wilson

Sunworld Safaris is an amazing company! Great customer service, great Kenyan vacation
After 30 years dreaming, I was finally at the point where I could start planning for my dream-trip to Kenya. I spent about a week researching different African tour companies. I noted their tour options, read their reviews, and emailed approximately 10 companies.
By far, the company that stood out was SUNWORLD SAFARIS! Within 24 hours, Rinu, a “Tour Consultant”, emailed me back. She responded to every question I had and she treated me like a person- and not a pay cheque. Despite the seven hour time difference, there was not a single email that Rinu didn’t answer within 24hours- and believe me, I ask a lot of questions!! Since I was organizing this vacation for my mom and myself, I wanted it to be perfect- and it was beyond all of our expectations!
In addition to amazing customer service, Sunworld Safaris found lodgings that were within our budget, but still fantastic!! Upon arriving in Nairobi, a Sunworld Safaris representative was waiting for us at the airport and brought us to “The Four Points Sheraton”. The following morning, another Sunworld Safaris representative and drove us to “The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust: Elephant Orphanage”. On the drive, he answered all our questions about culture and Nairobi. After the DSWT, he drove us to the Wilson Airport for our flight to Maasai Mara. After five night at Maasai Mara and Amboseli, a different Sunworld Safaris representative picked us up from the Wilson Airport and drove us back to “The Four Points Sheraton”. The following morning, he drove us to the “Giraffe Centre”, the “DSWT”, and the “Bomas of Kenya”.
Every one of the SUNWORLD SAFARIS employees:
- Were knowledgeable
- Patiently answered all of our questions
- Spoke perfect English
- Were punctual and respectful
- Provided advice and options on how to spend our time and money
Additionally, Rinu answered an email request I made during our vacation. She did her very best to make my request happen and when it didn’t work out, she was apologetic—even though it was definitely not her fault that we couldn’t change our plans last minute

Had the best time of my life with friends!!
Came over to Kenya to visit some friends and they showed me a tour these guys had and subscribed to it. We went for hiking at Aberdares, slept at the Ark then headed to Masai Mara. Everything was smooth from start to end.
Thanks

5 days safari to Aberdare, Lake Naivasha and Masai Mara
We are traveling as a family of 4 and had the best 5 days safari with our great driver and guide Simon.
We experienced three different types of nature on our trip - spanning from a forest with lots of elephants and buffalos right outside the lodge over to a lake with rhinos where we could walk around on Cresent island among giraffes and Zebras with a local ranger to finally reaching Masai Mara with several game drives.
We saw all of the big fives except for the rhino and Simon did a fantastic job taking us to see as many of the many different animals as possible. He went above and beyond to show us as much as possible and in general making sure we felt comfortable and had a good time.
We would like to highlight the Zebra Plains Mara camp as the most fantastic place to stay - right in the middle of the savanna with animals right outside the tent during the night but also great food and the best atmosphere - hosted by the most friendly and helpful staff.
All in all an amazing experience and we can highly recommend FlashMcTours and in particular Simon our driver.

The trip was great - lots to see and do and all professionally handled
From the start, Monametsi of Moonstroll Vantage Expeditions was prompt and informative with his email replies. If I didn't get an immediate reply it was because he was out checking on a tour and that was comforting to know he was so attentive. We chose a combined mokoro/driving tour. Our mokoro guide, DP, and his fellow polers were helpful and informative. I hadn't done a walking safari before but after learning the safety tips we felt comfortable and it was exciting to see animals from a different perspective. Hearing an elephant shake a palm tree for the nuts is quite a sound! Our second guide, Keone, was equally helpful and informative, with both DP and Keone knowing so much about the animals and birds. Keone was attentive to our interests throughout the 3 days and we had the time to sit and watch animal movements, such as a leopard or a lilac breasted roller, instead of taking a quick photo and having to move on. The accommodations were comfortable and as we expected. The food, prepared by Gothata, was always tasty and plentiful and we had a nice combination of familiar and traditional foods. Camp Assistant G was efficient and friendly as well. Our flight out of Maun on the final day was suddenly moved up by 2.5 hours but Keone handled that without stress. Lovely trip!

It was a more than excellent tour with Drifters and Ruan Mey as our guide.
We did at that time the South African tour with Drifters. Ruan Mey was our guide. He was excellent, friendly, competent. The tour and the guide were both in one word : AMAZING!!!

Great driver
Our driver Deo was absolutely fantastic, and the lodges Greg booked us into were awesome.
There was a minor issue with the other people in our group changing their booking at the last minute which resulted in some hassles along the way, but Greg was very fair to us and gave us a small refund to account for it. I don't think it is usual for his tours to have problems - I have spoken to other people who have been on Greg's safaris and they all had a really good time.

Perfect Honeymoon
A big thank you and 5 stars to Yellow Zebra and Kirsten Woolley. I don’t think you can too Yellow Zebra’s attention to detail, communication, and recommendations. They made our trip effortless for us and all of our destinations over delivered on expectations. Ask the YZ consultant what their recommendation would be based upon the choices and the price differences. We were willing to pay more for what was important for us (private guiding, etc) and working with YZ it was very helpful for pick and choose based upon different price points and recommendations. Hope we’re fortunate enough to experience again in our lifetime.
