Awesome
Went in a group of four (private safari) with Charles Classic Safari. They were very flexible about the program and stayed in permanet contact.
Our guide Elkanah was not only speaking an excellent English but also very attentive.
We were very lucky and saw a lot of animals and even gnus and zebras at a rivercrossing.
Loyk camp in Masai Mara was well chosen. And the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Expectation met
Thank you SafariBookings Team for arranging the trip for us. We enjoyed it a lot.
We had wonderful wild life. Game drives were better than boat trips.
Kubu lodge where we stayed was very good - very friendly staff, good accomodation, all fine.
We would do it again!

Bucket list dreams realised
We had the most amazing visit to Kruger. Our safari with Outlook far exceeded all of our expectations and we will now have special memories to treasure forever. We got to see wildlife immediately on entering the park and got to see the Big 5 and so, so much more. It is an incredible place that you are able to see these animals in the wild. Our safari guide Brian was truly wonderful and we learnt so much from him. And we were totally spoiled by his wife Debbie at the Outlook Sabi River Lodge. Truly beautiful and warm couple who took an already exceptional experience to the next level. Their love for the wildlife and their clients is so apparent and genuine. I can honestly say that choosing to a safari with Outlook and staying at their Sabi River Lodge was one of the best travel decisions I have ever made.

Excellent trip with Duma
Duma arranged a fabulous trip for us. Stacy was a pleasure to work with, we loved every place that we stayed and our guide--Wilson Shange--was excellent.
All of that was great, but the true test of a tour company is how they respond when the unexpected occurs, and the Duma staff was incredible when we ran into some difficulties during our trip. Right before leaving on our trip we were apparently bumped from the lodge where we were supposed to stay while in Ngorogoro due to a government meeting filling up another lodge. We remained blissfully unaware of that difficulty, only receiving a lovely email telling us that we had been upgraded to an incredible retreat for the 2 days at the Crater. Then, on our flight to Africa, my husband broke a tooth. We emailed Milcah, our Duma contact in Arusha, during a layover and when we arrived at Kilimanjaro airport our driver was aware of the tooth situation and took us directly to a dental clinic in Arusha.
A few days later, while at the retreat center at Ngorogoro, my husband fell ill and we could not travel to the Central Serengeti as planned. One call to Milcah, and we were booked at a lovely hotel nearby where my husband could recuperate before moving on the next day. Not only was that change made smoothly, but we received an email from Stacy checking in on how my husband was feeling.
We are so thankful to Stacy, Milcah, and the entire Duma team for an amazing trip and would recommend Duma to anyone looking for an adventure in Tanzania!

3-day Safari Tour Masai Mara - August 2019
I wanted to have 3-day Masai Safari experience with my family of 4 (coming from the U.S.) and they did not disappoint! It was a memorable experience as we got to see big game up close and all logistics were planned out thoughtfully and seamlessly such that we just got to focus on taking pictures and enjoying the moments! A special shoutout to our driver / guide EVANS who tailored the 3-days specifically to what we wanted to accomplish, he has 20+years of experience doing Safaris and it definitely showed! He definitely made us all feel safe but gave it a 100% effort in getting us to see the Big 5 up close. He went out of his way to make sure we all left the experience satisfied and fulfilled and that we definitely did. Also a shoutout to our travel consultant MINNEH who answered all my questions prior to the trip and gave us some great accommodations! They were a great duo and would highly recommend using them if you want a packaged experience where they take care of you from start to finish with no headaches or logistics!

2 weeks Zambia-Malawi
We did a self drive journey Lilongwe-South Luangwa NP - Nkhotakota Wildlife Reserve - Zomba plateau - Liwonde NP - CapMaclear - Lilongwe. Rented car was comfortable, we didn't have any technical problem. All selected lodges were nice with kindly staff and excellent food. The only one mistake was recommended route to Zomba Forest Lodge which was wrong and took us to almost not-drivable road. Luckily we passed it! But we recommend for next travelers not to choose the route according to Google because it exist a much more comfortable road to this lodge which Google doesn't know.
We thank Land Lake for its good job on preparing our journey.We can heartily recommend their service to other travelers. Thank You !

Unbelievable Guide, Unbelievable Trip!
We did a 3 day Serengeti / Ngorongoro Crater trip. The food was superb, the equipment was new and very well cared for, but above that, Emmanuel was an AMAZING guide. He has a great sense of humor, and a humble approach to guiding. He's an absolute pro, knows every animal and the history of the Serengeti well. He knows how much to talk, and how much to let the group observe. I cannot imagine a better guide. Book this adventure, with Emmanuel at Get Together Adventures, you won't be sorry!

Compass Odyssey did an exellent job creating an itinerary that fit our requests.
I would highly recommend Compass Odyssey, they created an itinerary that went way beyond my expectations. They listened to our group and kept in constant communication. For example we had one night planned in Johannesburg, unfortunately their were riots due to an election. They were concerned about our safety and were willing to help. The accomadatons we chose were in a safe area and so our trip was very safe. The places we stayed were gracious and friendly. The food was delicious. Above all the guides were friendly and excellent educators and we were able to view so many animals, birds and plants. I would definitely use this company again!

Incredible Safari Company and Amazing Guide
Tanzania Exclusive Journeys lived up to all that it said it would do, and more. Our guide, Ian, was outstanding in his knowledge, finding animals, and especially the care he took to ensure that we had not only a safe trip but a memorable one! I would suggest if you select this company, you ask for Ian to be your guide. I am quite sure that the other guides are probably just as good. My companions said at the end of our trip, "This was a trip of a lifetime. Although Kenya&Tanzania both were excellent, I think we will remember Tanzania more.
