Provided a great game drive tour and delivered exactly what they said they would.
We had a superb trip to Pilanesberg National Park. Driven up in comfort by Etu and taken around the park by our fantastic guide, Desmond. Highly recommended.

Perfect tour with perfect stay
Everything was perfect, the staff were extremely friendly, the explanations were clear, the food and dine experience were extraordinary.
I’ve had experienced drivers which were really good in gathering intel of where to find the animals which are rare and I got to see saw many animals, even two leopards on the same day which is crazy!
I don’t have even a single feedback for improvement, keep doing a good job!

Excellent service
We did the Ultimate Pilanesberg Day Trip and we enjoyed it very much. We were picked up right on time at the hotel, picked up other guests and headed to the park, about a 3-hour drive from Jo’burg. We were then handed off to our safari guide at the entrance of the park and had a day full of wildlife sightings. There was an hour break for lunch (included on the cost) followed by another couple more hours of driving through the park. At the end of the safari our driver was waiting for us at the park entrance and we drove back to Jo’burg.
There’s a stop to use the restrooms each way about half way through the drive to the park and you can also get food.
Overall it was an awesome day-trip and very very convenient as you pay for the tour and everything is included (transportation, park entrance fees, the safari drive and lunch).
Definitely recommend booking this tour!

The best of the best ! Great local safari agency in Tanzania
We went on a 5 days safari and we loved it so much!! Aron, our guide, was the best of the best, you could immediately tell. He would spot animals that no other guide would, truly impressive, and would give us so many insights about wild life. He answered to all our questions, was fully reliable, very flexible, and very kind. The service of the tour was great! We booked in advance, were welcomed by Joel in Arusha, who showed us around the city, very nice guy, we then spent the night at the Karibu heritage house (very welcoming, great service) and started the safari the next morning. All the coordination of the safari with Mohammed was clear and easygoing, we felt in good hands. We chose the option of spending some nights in the cheapest accommodation option and some others in luxury camps, and we do not regret it, we got the best of each option. We stayed at the Figtree hostel close to Tarangire and lake Manyara national parks, which was very cool, because we could spend time with other travelers from different countries and have great conversations over dinner and breakfast, and there was a pool! Then we spent two nights at luxury camps in Serengeti and Ngorongoro. In both cases, the hostel and the luxury camps, the service was great, food was amazing, great hospitality and value for money was totally fair. During the day in the safari we would eat the amazing lunches prepared by Richard, very balanced meals with lots of fresh vegetables, and a buffet-style lunch mixing local and international dishes, to satisfy all clients preferences. One of the persons doing the tour with us was vegan and Richard would always ensure she had good options to eat too. Also, the luxury camps would give us a lunch box, but Aron gave us the option between having that lunch box (cold food) or eating Richard’s hot meal at lunch and we chose the second option. We could witness that such kind of flexibility was not given by all safari agencies, as another couple that was traveling like us with another company were told they could not choose, and had to eat their cold lunch boxes while looking at all the rest of us enjoying the hot buffet (they seemed quite unsatisfied about that). After coming back from the safari we spent another night at the Karibu heritage house in Arusha (which was included in the safari package). As we had some hours left the next day in Tanzania before our flight back, we organized with Mohammed a tour to Moshi and the Materuni waterfall. We were picked up by Joel the next morning (very punctual as always with this company) and he was our private guide for that day. He was very nice, and showed us the region closer to the Kilimanjaro. We had an amazing experience with Travel Africa, with Aron, Richard, Joel and Mohammed. We recommend them fully and hope we can come again to do more tours with them!

Personalised, customised and attention to detail.
Fat Rhino is reliable, all pick ups and drop offs are as scheduled. What you pay for is what you get. Drivers and guides are knowledgable. Communication is top notch. They are good and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a safari/holiday.

Amazing
We took a 6 day safari covering Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru & Amboseli National park. The tour was well planned by Boaz and excellently executed by Joel our guide. We managed to see all the big 5 both in Mara and Amboseli among other predators and grazers. Joel knew the best routes to warrant sighting of of the wildlife at a close range. His sense of humor was amazing and he was always patient with us. i strongly recommend AKOMS SAFARIS to anyone planning to travel to Kenya.

Amazing, they took very good care for us and food was amazing even for vegetarians!
We had a very good experience of the safari. Saw 4 out of big 5 (&much more)
The food was amazing (despite we being vegetarians) and so were the guides, Quinton, Victor and Raymond.
We would have loved to do something on our last day as we had of a bit of time so please do plan your days in advance.
The tree house was a great experience to stay one of a kind! Would recommend to stay for a day!
Thanks
