Another Amazing Safari Experience!
Twaha and his group of drivers/safari guides are truly the best. They are very nice, safe, always on time and accommodating. This is the fifth safari I've taken to Murchison Falls with a very large group and I wouldn’t trust anyone except Twaha and his tour group. We stayed at Paraa Safari Lodge which is very nice with amazing food and the game drives are spectacular. The guides can spot wildlife from so far away and truly cater to your requests as far as what animals the groups want to see. I fully recommend this group and will book again in the future!

Exceeded All Expectations
I had never been on safari before -- never dreamed I'd be able to, actually -- and recently had the good fortune of taking a 3-day safari with John at Allure African Safaris. It was an incredible experience; I learned a ton about E. Africa and its wildlife in a very short time, and I enjoyed far more comfort than I was expecting. We visited Tarangire, Lake Manyara, and Ngorongoro Crater -- 3 very different parks with different wildlife in each. We saw all of the Big 5 as well as zebras, giraffes, wildebeest, baboons, countless fascinating birds, and even a monitor lizard. We also learned a lot about Maasai people and culture in the area, and John was patient with all of our questions. Not only was he knowledgeable, but he was also attentive to our needs (we were fully stocked with bottled water, and he always found us a pit stop when nature called) and just really enjoyable to be with. He has an easy sense of humor and quickly formed relationships with each of us and our particular... Read more requests to take certain photos or see certain animals (when possible, of course). I noticed that he has a strong rapport with other safari guides who clearly respect him and his experience, and they all seem to cooperate with each other to share information so that their guests have the best experiences possible. The lodge we stayed at in the evenings, Olea, was an oasis -- attentive service, delicious food, comfy beds, and great showers. If I'm lucky enough to go on safari again, I will definitely go with John and try for the Serengeti next time. Truly, you will not be disappointed!

Surreal experience! Would do it all over again, with Wildlife Oasis Tours!
What a fantastic 4 days we had - My husband and I chose the 4 days 3 night (Tarangire - Serengeti - Ngorongoro) package and I still have this warm, excited feeling thinking back to our experience. We caught the Big 5 in 4 days, with many close encounters with lions! We were in a great group as well - with 2 other couples in the car, which made it fun! Our guide Ben was fantastic. He did his best to show us as much as possible and was very knowledgable about the different species of animals we saw. We're big fans of the animal planet - so we were living the dream! Getting all these cool animal facts was super cool - I saw a lot, and learnt a lot :) We didn't expect such good food during the camping trip as well so that was definitely a pleasant surprise and a great plus! I was also blown away by the landscapes - there was always something new from one day to the next as we moved to different locations. Talking and arranging things with Humphrey before the trip was also very efficient. (I... Read more have never been camping before and had a million questions for him - but he always replied to all my queries, so it was amazing service prior to the safari on their end as well). My husband also had a malaria scare the morning of our safari expedition and Wildlife Oasis Tours was very helpful and quick - we got to the doctor, and got a test for it in the span of 30 minutes. (It was not Malaria luckily!). Reasonably priced, outstanding customer service and a professionally organised and unforgettable Safari experience - I hope I can do this again sometime in the future. I highly recommend Wildlife Oasis Tours.

Excellent planning for a family with a 10y child
Journeys Discovering Africa tailor-made a safari tour (6 nights) in northern Botswana for our family. The agency was very good in responding to our various questions and demands during the planning phase and was able to put together a great tour suitable for travelling with a child. All our wishes were catered for and the service they provided when some trouble with flights later occurred was more than helpful.
We had a lovely tour and saw a lot of animals plus made a tour to Tsodilo Hills. We were all excited!

Success is in the details!
For my wife's 50th Birthday, she wanted to do an African Safari. I've always booked our vacations in the past, but for this 20 hour flight from the United States to Cape Town I reached out to many Travel agents to support this trip for us and another couple. From initial contact to final decision, Ker and Downey (Sarah and KayLeigh) stood out as proud South African's who wanted to show off their Amazing Country. The Vacation and the sights were great, but what made it amazing was the detail and care in which Ker and Downey planned our Trip. Our first room was perfectly chosen to face the sunrise the next morning. And since we arrived so late, Sarah ensured there was a plate of snacks left in our room since all the local restaurants were closed. The next morning our new driver and Tour Expert (Wayne from Island Tours) arrived on-time and ushered us down Route 62 to Sanbona Private Reserve. The ride was amazing and Wayne spoke excellent English so there were no communication problems.... Read more Sanbona was off the charts. Based on my description of what we wanted, Sarah recommended the Tilney Manor Lodge. (Combination of Luxury and convenience and an awesome view of the Sunset - PERFECT).
I not going to describe our entire 11 day trip in detail, but what I must convey is that every step of this vacation was meticulously planned. All the transports showed up on time with specific plans for the day and when those plans did not match the weather for that day, they were willing to change them based on our needs. South Africa was amazing, but I must also sincerely thank Sarah, Kayleigh and Pippa for guiding us through our DREAM VACATION (HOLIDAY)!!
Thank you for everything

Highly recommend!!
My partner and I booked our safari and Kilimanjaro hike with Serengeti Wakanda after a glowing review from numerous friends who previously went on a safari with the company. Both Bartho and his partner were incredibly welcoming and kind and went out of their way to ensure we were looked after and enjoyed our trip. Bartho was waiting for us at the airport the second our flight touched down and was kind enough to drop us back to the airport despite us extending our stay in Arusha at another accommodation across town. During our 4 day safari we had an awesome guide Salim who was very knowledgeable about all the flora and fauna as well as animals, and was helpful in answering all our questions! Our chef Dennis prepared hot meals for our dinners, and there was always plenty of food to go around! Bartho helped us with all our arrangements for renting gear for our Kilimanjaro trek and even kindly lent me some of his personal items for the treck. We felt completely looked after our entire stay,... Read more and Bartho was always around or a quick phone call away if we needed anything! Even after our tours were finished, we hung around Arusha for a couple days and bartho was kind enough to spend time with us and take us around to visit a few neat spots in and around Arusha.
Overall we had a fantastic visit to Arusha and would highly recommend booking your tours with Serengeti Wakanda! Thanks again for everything guys!!

Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda with Safarihub
The gorilla tracking experience was really amazing and accommodation at The one & only, Nyungwe home was out of this world with a wonderful view of the Nyungwe national park, a perfect place to stay because it is near the meeting point for the gorilla trek.
Thank you for recommending this trip to us, I would certainly recommend to friends in USA.
