The trip of a lifetime
This company is fantastic. They tailor made our tour. The accommodation was fantastic - even better than expected. The landscape was stunning, and seeing gorillas in the world is indescribable. What an experience! Our driver was lovely - very accommodating, kind and helpful.
I highly recommend this professional, exceptional company.

Walk on the wildside
In the last 10 days we went on safari with Mike Scott to Mana Pools in zimbabwe.
We enjoyed every second of it! Together with tracker Bernard, who wil never ever give up while tracking, they form a great team. Also in the the kitchen. We saw leopard, lion on foot as also big herd of buffalo and many more. Very special sighting of wild dogs and 9 pups in the chitake spring on our last morning.
Humor and wonderfull stories are present to! We went to Africa 10 times..but this one is in our top 3 of the special ones.
We certainly will be back! And will recommend khangela safaris with pro guide mike scott to all other africa lovers who want to go for the real stuff...in the bush...under canvas..just as it is ment to be!

Great experience
I asked for a few quotes and Lennox answered very quickly and was very helpfull. He gave me a very good impression and I chose to do the safari with Axis. Everthing was great, specially our guide Kikitu who always had a smile on his face and was very helpful.
I recommend Axis and Kikitu with confidence.
Thank you!!

Great experience, wonderful 2 days in Tsavo East with Tammy Tours
We had a great experience with Tammy Tours in August 2018. The communication was smooth, Tunu met us in the hotel lobby , where we discussed all the details left. She was really helpful all the time we stayed in our hotel!
We were picked up early in the morning and drove directly to Tsavo East to our safari lodge, which was great as well. Room with a view of a watering hole , where you can see many animals coming to drink the water (elephants, giraffe, buffalos ) right from your window.
Can highly recommend!

Overwhelmingly positive
We chanced upon Go Touchdown Tours at a South African art display in Sarasota, FL and entered to win a South African safari vacation. We did not win a trip, but we did receive discount coupons that, with trip prepayment, made the trip (for two adults and a teenage grandson) affordable. We were very pleased with the attention to detail, generally rapid response to questions, accommodations included, staff friendliness, dedicated driver while in SA (James), and overall value. Meals were “order anything off the menu” with no restrictions so we ate well and got to try local cuisine. We enjoyed Dunkeld Estate but especially liked our time at Humala River Lodge and the intimate game experience in the Songimvelo Reserve. In hindsight, we would have preferred another day at Humala rather than the trek to and disappointing quick day at Kruger, where we had a fairly “grumpy” Jeep driver who kept to the main road and did not give us much opportunity to see wildlife hiding off in the less exposed side areas. We saw the most wildlife at the Pilanesberg National Park, but enjoyed the most “in the bush” experience at Humala. Definitely worthwhile trip!

Very competent agency
It is to be done once in his life: Kilimanjaro rises to 5895m and it is a great sporting and human adventure.. I had organized this trip via internet. I found the agency Kielele SAVANE by making requests for quotation. I do not regret anything because Frank Mella the manager, is really exceptional. He was very available and very good advice for editing the trek. We can have total trust. the advantage to deal directly is that you choose your own pace, your dates ... We were a group of 6 people, we were very well accompanied (guides, porters, cooks ...) all were helpful, smiling and attentive. We eat very well, the meals were very rich. We chose the Lemosho route in 6 nights / 7 days. Some days we only walk 4 hours but it is very good for acclimatization. The biggest day is the final day : departure around midnight with light, up around 5 am / 5.30am - 6 am and the descent is not the least tiring part, that's why we made the descent on 2 days, I highly recommend Kielle SAVANE. Another BIG Thanks to All the team of porters and Guides and to you FranK
After the Trek, some made the SAFARI, always with the agency Kielele SAVANE, and they were equally delighted and others Zanzibar direction. I wish you a good ascent.

Excellent package and outstanding tour guide
The package was ideal for the level of sightseeing we wanted to do in Uganda. Xavier our guide was outstanding and not only was extremely helpful but also made sure that we got the experience we wanted from Uganda. The accommodation was very good, and if there were any issues with anything he made sure it was resolved before leaving us to ourselves. He also made sure we got a feel of the local markets and food stalls on the roadsides so we really experienced how the Uganda people go about their daily routines.
This is a highly recommended company if you are looking for someone to tour with in Uganda.

Joyland Safaris arranged a wonderful, memorable, stress free Safari for 22 of us.
Thanks to Joyland Safaris & Mr Gideon.
This was a major trip for us - 22 friends, from 5 years to 63 years, from 6 countries doing a safari across Kenya, Tanzania & Zanzibar. Mr Gideon was wonderful, constant, clear communication - regular advice, perpetual patience with us, changes & queries. The trip was everything that was promised and MORE - it by far, exceeded our expectations !! Pickups, hotels, lodges, vehicles, guides, food, excursions were all pretty much seamless & friendly.
We were still doing changes just days before we left - and he was always accommodating - meeting us personally at several instances along the tour - to make sure everything was on track - getting feedback, answering questions and offering advice. His team, drives & guides are all very experienced, well versed, friendly & fun - they felt like part of the family and we were with them, in vehicles, on Safari, for days on end ! These guys KNOW where to go, how to find the wildlife, where to stay and much more - oh - and great with the kids too !
Special Note - we had a Hot Air Balloon ride arranged in the Masai Mara,but at the last minute the pilot became ill and it was cancelled - we were informed at 6pm the night before (and it was a 4 am start the next day) - so I called Mr Gideon to inquire if we could book something very similar in the Serengeti just 3 days later. By morning, he had secured refunds for the cancelled ride, booked the same for Serengetti, confirmed tickets, arranged for an agent to meet us and negotiated to absorb the difference in fees - all before 9 am.
We had a FANTASTIC trip - saw everything we wanted to see and MUCH more and will have fond memories for EVER !

Unforgettable Experience
We spent 2 weeks in the wilderness together with the 3 most awesome companions you could wish for on a trip like this. We felt safe at all times, saw all of the big 5, learned alot about the animals and the country of Botswana and felt at home in the bush due to Bens knowledge and openness, Wilsons DELICIOUS food and positivity and Daddies hospitality, and funny character. Any insecurities that we had bevore we started our trip to botswana instantly went away the second we first met Lucky and the crew! There was no doubt that these two weeks were going to be one unforgettable experience. And so it was. Thanks to everyone who made this possible.
