Three time winner!
For the third time I put together (persuaded) five friends to join me on another Kruger Park safari in September/October 2022. I have always asked Melanie to make recommendations and to plan my trips. I find her to be one of the most conscientious and detail-oriented planners I have met. We spent time at three lodges, from a well-established safari lodge in Sabi Sands, to a Manyeleti lodge and finally to a quite new tented lodge in the Timbavati. I should add that the last reservation was originally at a different lodge until (fairly late in the process) that lodge decided they were closing for renovations. Melanie handle it all with quiet competence keeping us informed as she dotted every i and crossed every T. We were informed at every juncture and we knew exactly how our journey would play out. Whether you are an old "Africa" hand or a complete "newbie" you cannot go wrong with Pembury. We had a wonderful time with all the small details that got added including a special private dinner celebration for one couple's wedding anniversary. Our photographs show wonderful sightings, what they don't show are the huge smiles behind the cameras. Value for money? Absolutely! Reliability? Unquestionably! Communications? Unmatched! The tour itself? A dream come true!

Perfect tour of Nairobi National Park
Trailfinders organised a half-day trip to Nairobi National Park for me. The price was competitive given that I ended up being the only person on the tour, so it was effectively a private tour. I was picked up on time from the hotel, and my guide was very knowledgeable and went to great lengths to make sure I experience all the wildlife, in particular he tracked down 2 female lions hiding in the bush in the middle of nowhere, as the lions didn’t seem to want to show themselves on that day :) highly recommended!

Rose listened to our wishes needs & wants... and she overdeliverd!
As we are experienced Africa & Safari Travelers this was about “ticking off 2 of our bucket lists items: Giraffe Manor and the Great Migrations.
Rose designed the trip brilliantly around these items and found a way to make the trip authentic African with a “bit of roughness” in the bush, perfectly timed and deliver on the bucket list items. Choices of camps and itinerary were great and "designed" for our needs and expectations.
During the trip we had 2-3 small “usual” hick ups. Her reactivity and accessibility were outstanding, and it is obvious she has lived in these regions. Her support was very good.
If you look for tailor made that “delivers” look no further!

Best trip ever
The Safari was well organized. Outstanding service. From the beginning with Anna, when we got pick up at the airport and a special mention to our guide Gilbert. Everything was perfect. I traveled all around the world and this is the best trip ever. If you want to be first row and have a memorable experience , book with Liom King Adventure. You will not be disappointed.

Unforgettable Safari
We went to Africa with my friends who new David from previous safari and we had very good time and we saw many animals.
His Company Native Afrika was very good and gave us a good price for the 5-day safari and also a guide that speak Germany, so it was easy for our communication on safari. We visit Amboseli for the Kilimanjaro and lake Naivasa and then Masai mara. Seeing the animals from the balloon very early in the morning was beautiful and also the sunrise amazing. Jakob our guide show the lion killing and eating zebra.
Thank you, Native Afrika!!! Recommend a lot.

The best tour operator ever!
There were amazing 6 days in Kenya with Okoa Afrika Tours!
Our driver John is real professional who made our wishes real as fast as possible and really cared about us during all 6 days. John we miss you and wish you all the best!
We spent the last day of safari in Nairobi with Mika and Johnson. They gave us the excursion, showed shoppes where we could buy some local products and told us the history of Kenya. In the end of our Kenya trip they took us to the Carnivore restaurant where we could try some special types of meat.
Thanks a lot to Okoa Afrika Tours for our amazing Kenya trip! Highly recommend the operator to everyone who wants to make their Afrikan trip the most comfortable and really unforgettable!

PERFECT FAMILY SAFARI!!
We just completed a 5-day safari with our family (3 persons) and it was perfect in every way.
We worked with Salim to plan the trip and she was terrific. He gave us all the information we needed, responded promptly to emails, and patiently worked with us through a couple of COVID-related reschedules. It was very easy to make arrangements and there were no unpleasant surprises or things we'd wished we'd done differently.
Once we arrived, we were met by our fabulous guide Ally, who proved to be knowledgeable and delightfully charming, and felt like old friend by the end of the week. We visited Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire and found each park to be wonderful.
The vehicles were comfortable and in great shape with useful features, including Wifi and electrical plugs for charging electronics, and a cooler with beverages.
We selected the Comfort Plus accommodation level and loved every place we stayed. The food was fantastic.
Overall, this was truly the vacation of a lifetime and I would highly recommend Zamunda Tours. It was an amazing experience start to finish.
