Just Amazing!
5/5

So my sister and I booked an overnight tour to Amboseli National Park with Morningstar Tours & Travel. The initial booking process was very easy as Emma was very prompt with the quote and changing it to my liking. I wanted to stay at a different camp then was featured and they were flexible and made the change (we wanted to stay at Kibo Camp).
Our guide was James, who picked us up promptly and on time at 7:30am to make the drive to Amboseli. The drive was smooth and fun as James took the time to explain different sites and features along the way. Also, his music was awesome!
After we arrived and had lunch, James took us on our afternoon/evening game drive around the park. When I say James knew what he was doing! He knew exactly were to go to see the animals we wanted to see - we were able to see elephants, lions, cheetahs, hippos, and a bunch more animals. And we stayed in the park long enough to see the sunset....OMG, James knew exactly where to go to see the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen. We were so happy as we got to see everything we really wanted to on the first day. I mentioned I had wanted to see elephants with My Kilimanjaro in the background but the mountain was cloudy so I didn't get too.
The next morning, we promptly started our drive at 5:50am and James took us to a spot where we got to see a herd of elephants but also, the backdrop was a beautiful sunrise.
James had listened to what I said about seeing Elephants against the backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro and he took me to the perfect place to get my photo as the mount view had cleared. When I tell you I could die happy!!!!!!
James was absolutely amazing! Like if I could give 20 stars I would. He is the reason why you get an experienced guide to bring you on games drives! We literally got to see EVERYTHING we wanted to see. Ughhhh I keep looking at the photos and videos I was able to take because it feels surreal.
I could not recommend Morningstar Tour & Travel company enough. I definitely will use them if I am able to come back to Africa and do more safaris.
Asante sana!!!!!

Trip of a lifetime!
5/5

This was absolutely a trip of a lifetime. We found Long Way Expeditions through Responsible Travel. We did look at other companies but landed on this one because the itinerary was exactly what we were looking for. When planning this trip, Ann was able to accommodate us and make a few changes and help us fine tune our experience. From the moment Abu warmly greeted us at the airport with a broad smile and Ann greeted us at the hotel with an equally warm smile to discuss our time with them, we relaxed from the day’s travels and knew we were in good hands. Everyday was an adventure. Abu was the best guide. Whenever possible, he gave us an experience away from all the other tourists yet enabled us to see all the wonders of Tanzania up close. It was wonderful to deal with a locally owned company, a husband and wife team and an expedition company committed to supporting their community and making it a better place. Just the kind of company we wanted to support vs a company putting profit ahead of people. I truly can’t say enough about this tour company. Ann and Abu care about their clients and their community. And it shows.

Knowledgeable, responsive and enthusiastic with great attention to detail
5/5

Kathi from African Welcome Safaris put together an amazing itinerary in Cape Town, Rwanda and Tanzania.
From the tours and tour operators to the accomodation, everything was perfectly organised to suit our interests and needs.
Kathi was flexible and responded promptly to any adjustments in the itinerary during the planning stages- and there were many!
The whole trip was perfectly organised and went off without a hitch.
We cannot thank Kathi enough for arranging one of the most amazing and memorable holidays for our family.
We are all ready planning our next trip to Africa, and of course we will be contacting Kathi from African Welcome Safaris to organise this.

Safari, Zanzibar and unforgettable moments
5/5

Our experience in Tanzania was incredible, the Safari and the days in Zanzibar.

On the Safari we were lucky enough to see the migration of zebras, buffaloes and elephants, as well as seeing many other animals in the 4 parks we visited, moments that we will never forget, after all the lion was one of those animals.

In Zanzibar, in addition to getting to know the local culture, we did the Blue Safari and relaxed on a quiet beach, with a so beautiful sunset.

All the moments organized by Zanzi Trekking and Safaris Limited, which exceeded our expectations, due to the care and preparation of the schedule for the 10 days we spent in Tanzania.

Kind, professional and reliable
5/5

We chose Moonstroll for a 4-day safari departing and returning from Maun to visit Moremi and Khwai reserve including a mokoro trip.
We were met at the airport on our arrivals in Maun for a transfer to the hotel and a quick briefing. We were immediately able to appreciate the punctuality, seriousness and professionalism of all the staff. Monametsi always responded quickly and was very helpful. Our guide Dylos has a great experience in animal knowledge and is very reliable, he allowed us to see many animals up close in total safety.
The tents are large and comfortable. We had requested vegetarian meals for one of the members of our group, everything was prepared with the
maximum care from our talented chef.
I absolutely recommend choosing Moonstroll for a tent safari in Botswana to have a wonderful experience and have the chance to meet such good people.

A Family Adventure of a Lifetime
5/5

Our recent 8-day safari in Tanzania with Emnel Adventures was truly  an unforgettable experience.  From the moment we began our journey, we were met with professionalism, warmth, and a sense of adventure that stayed with us throughout the trip.

Pre-Safari Experience: Our planning phase with Emmy, our tour consultant, was seamless. Emmy was incredibly patient, answering all our questions, providing insightful recommendations, and making sure we felt comfortable and excited about every part of our trip. She customized our itinerary to meet the needs of our family, balancing relaxation and adventure perfectly. Emmy’s communication was consistent, timely, and reassuring, setting the tone for what turned out to be a flawless experience.
Arrival and Warm Welcome: The moment we landed at the airport, we were greeted by Emnel’s team with big smiles and an array of refreshments—exactly what we needed after a long flight. We instantly felt at ease and taken care of, with everything perfectly organized from the very start.
The Guiding Star: Gabriel! Our guide, Gabriel, was nothing short of exceptional. His knowledge of the wildlife, landscapes, and local cultures made every drive an educational adventure. Gabriel’s passion for Tanzania's wildlife was contagious, and he had a gift for making us feel both safe and deeply connected to the incredible surroundings. From the way he spotted elusive animals in the distance to how he shared fascinating stories about each region, Gabriel truly made the safari experience come alive. His kindness and warmth left a lasting impression on us, and we left feeling like we’d made a lifelong friend.
Accommodations & Wildlife Experiences: Each hotel and lodge we stayed in was thoughtfully chosen. The accommodations were comfortable, luxurious, and often perfectly placed to immerse us in the beauty of nature. Whether it was waking up to the sounds of wildlife or watching the sunset over the savannah, every moment felt magical. From the vast plains of the Serengeti to the stunning views of Ngorongoro Crater, we saw an incredible variety of wildlife—lions, elephants, cheetahs, giraffes, and even a rare sighting of a leopard. The experience was beyond what we had imagined.
Emnel Adventures exceeded all our expectations. The warmth of the people, the richness of the landscapes, and the thrill of the wildlife made this safari a truly life-changing experience for our family. We would highly recommend Emnel Adventures to anyone looking for an authentic, personalized, and remarkable Tanzanian safari. Thank you, Emmy, Gabriel, and the entire Emnel Adventures team, for creating memories that will last a lifetime!

A very familiar and friendly style.
5/5

An unforgettable adventure. I travelled alone and had a small coordination problem on the first day, but the company managed to resolve it and was very attentive at all times. I definitely recommend Sadari Africa United for its kindness and friendly treatment. Thanks to Cornelius especially. Greetings from Argentina!

Fun and great value for money
5/5

We met Barack, our first guide, at a hostel in Kigali. He was very helpful driving us to Volcanoes National Park, as well as arranging permits and finding good yet budget-friendly accommodation. In addition, he was very funny and willing to answer all of our questions. For the remainder of our trip we drove with Patrick, who was also a very friendly and reliable driver, even though he only just joined the tour company. Overall they offered honest information and great value for money, so I would highly recommend booking with them!

Brilliant!
5/5

One of the best experiences in our lives - thanks to Mellivora African Travels! That was our first time going on a Safari tour and we did not regret choosing Mellivora African Travels. It was a 5 days tour and every day was different. Luckily, we got Elia as our tour guide and we had an amazing time with him. He put so much effort in everything and could tell us so much, not only detailed information on the animals but also about Tanzania and its culture. You could tell that he has so much passion for his job and he is very experienced. We will always treasure the week we spent on Safari.
