Perfect in a special way
We have been in Dar in May. Although it was the end of the rainy season and therefore not the best time to go on safari we didn't wanna leave without seeing any animals.
We had booked the three days Selous safari tour. Lenard picked us up at our hotel in Kigamboni right in time. We bought some veggies, fruits and water on markets along the way (what was an experience by itself), had a lunchbreak with a delicious meal in Kibiti. The landscape is so beautiful, Lenard is such a good driver and entertainer, time passed so fast and the six hours tour was never boring.
At arrival in the Ngalawa Tented Camp we had a two hours boat safari on the Rufiji river. Something so very amazing...the silence, the birds, the crocodils, the hippos, the sundown...it is hard to put it in words.
We had a full day safari in Selous the next day. Lenard knows the reserve very good, he knows so much about animals and we saw a lot of them. No cats, but almost every other...even a hyena in the end. Lenard brought us so very close to them, he was so patiently and never got tired to drive, to explain and wait for us making photos.
On the last morning we had a walking safari. It was really exciting to walk in the bush always aware that the animals are close. A real nature experience.
We had full board at the Ngalwa Tented Camp. Food was always very delicous and the camp is a woderful little place somewhere out in the wilderness where we heard the bush babies cry at night.
The whole tour was thouroughtly good organized and perfect in a special way mostly cause of Lenard...we hope to do safari with him again and highly recommend him and his company.

Andy was awesome. He listened to my requirement and was really patient in providing various options.
Andy did a great job in arranging our trip to Cape Town and Kruger. He gave us different options and worked with us. He was patient and always listened to what we were looking for. He has a great and friendly personality and is not pushy. Overall I would highly recommend Andy for arranging and coordinating your vacation. The safari and Cape Town visits were excellent and met our expectations.

Availability, efficiency and professionalism
TANZANIA WONDERFUL TANZANIA
Safari in a land of uncontaminated nature, breathtaking and magical landscapes. It was a trip of unique emotions. Our expectations have been overcome by reality: so much biodiversity and beauty, availability and friendliness of people and efficiency of Savannah Explorers. Every need has been satisfied and every minimum problem solved promptly. Thanks to the staff of Savannah Explorers for their professionalism and to Ally (our driver and guide) for his availability, knowledge and experience. He allowed us to observe very closely all the animals of the savannah!

Best 4 day Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Hell's Gate Tour
This company took care of my husband and I from start to finish. Zippy herself was there at pick up to introduce us to the driver Gregory and the cook John, and also at drop off to ask us about our experience.
It was an incredible tour and safari in Masai Mara Game Reserve. Gregory is a great man who drove very well and will make sure you will see as many animals as you like and as many as time and distance permits.
The accommodations were as they were described and better. Both places we stayed at in Masai Mara and Lake Naivasha (the cottage overlooked the lake!!!) had hot water for showers, electricity, perfectly working toilets, mosquito nets and comfy beds. Wi-Fi is provided in the van.
We were very well fed with freshly cooked food, drinks (bottled water, tea and coffee, we got a smoothie treat also!) and fruit snacks. John is a great cook who always asked for feedback from our meal. He walked with us in Hell's Gate National Park and Gorge (amazing park, lots of walking, hiking, some climbing but BEAUTIFUL and worth it, we had another John as our friendly and informative guide).
Gregory and John were amazing company and we had long talks with them in the van, after meals and while on tour. Very friendly, professional, and respectable people who were patient and efficient.
We just finished our safari tour and we were quite sad on the ride home because we had such a memorable time. Australken Tours is fantastic, reliable and easy to organise with. Highly recommend!

Gorilla Safari
Jolie arranged our booking. She was so pleasant and helpful. The safari was absolutely wonderful. I was a little nervous of the hike but it was amazing. Bwindi forest is really beautiful. I recommend a porter as it was very slippery. The gorillas were so peaceful. Thanks Jolie!

An unforgettable experience
This was our 4th visit to the African continent and it was the best by far. Our driver/guide was fantastic. His bird spotting ability was second to none. All the lodges that we stayed at were of the highest standard and all the meals were excellent.
We would certainly recommend this company

Fabulous tour - highly recommend!
I had a fabulous tour experience with Albert in the Arusha and Moshi area. He was super friendly, helpful and knowledgable - very relaxed and really easy to spend a couple of days with. He was easy to get hold of and provided a great service from start to finish. The tour itself was super informative and definitely exceeded my expectations. I'd highly recommend it and I'll definitely use Zilla again next time I'm in the area!
