A tailor made safari with experienced guides
4/5

Before safari, communications have been great: answers to our questions were provided promptly. Program was very clear. Flexibility for last minute changes was helpful and can be highlighted. Changes to the original program were proposed to better fit to our expectations. During trip, guides were always on time and able to adapt to changing environment. They were offering high class service with smile. The general impression is reliability.

Review about Pilanesberg Game Reserve by Mads Fredslund Andersen
Overall rating
4/5

We went to Pilanesberg National Park (PNP) before going to Idube and this was perfect. In PNP we saw many wild animals but missed out on lions, leopards and buffalos of the big five. We came close to hippos, giraffes, wildebeests a rhino, zebras, and many kudos, spring bucks and other antelopes.
The combination of going to PNP and drive around by our self and then go to Idube where we were shown the nature by experienced guides was perfect.

Excellent service
4/5

ATI provided an excellent service, always more than happy to help with any request that we had, and they ensured that we had a wonderful holiday. Communication was excellent, and all accommodation booked was perfect. The only thing that we would have changed is revising some of the driving times on the Botswana safari element as the road quality meant very long days, and arriving late in camp.

An exciting and educational tour with a highly experienced guide.
4/5

Wildlife Safaris was very good value with ample opportunities to spot the wildlife while enjoying comfortable accommodation and hearty meals right inside Kruger National Park. Nick our guide was friendly, courteous and very knowledgeable.

We are very happy about the service in the Masai Mara and also about kind help of the driver who was assisting us in Nairobi. I will be very happy to refer to you any of my friends who decide to visit Kenya.

Tsavo West - the mountainous rustic gem of the Kenyan safari parks.
Overall rating
4/5

Tsavo West was one of three national parks we visited while in Kenya, along with Amboseli and Tsavo East. Each of these parks has its own special characteristics and charms. Of the three, Tsavo West is certainly the least visited, which helps to give it a more secluded and natural feel. The relative lack of tourists means that even when impressive groups of animals are spotted, only a few safari vehicles will converge, and so are less likely to spook them away. Additional plusses for Tsavo West are that the terrain provides a beautiful backdrop as this park is the most mountainous of the three, and that there was the opportunity to see animals that we were not able to spot elsewhere. For example, Tsavo West was the only park where we observed leopards, hippos (at the Mzima Springs pools within the park), and several kinds of monkeys. Mzima Springs in particular was an exceptional treat since it was one of the few opportunities on safari to leave the jeep while in a park, though in exchange, the guides needed to be armed just in case a hippo or other large animal decided it did not like our presence. Luckily, incidents almost never occur, so the result is just that one can get closer to the natural environment and have a slightly elevated sense of adventure while doing it. Tsavo West also contains a black rhino preserve, though we were unable to see any rhinos while there. Not being able to see a rhino was perhaps the only major downside with our visit, though I am sure other visitors don’t have this kind of bad luck. Others potential criticisms of the park are that because it is so remote, the lodging services are a little rougher and that because of the terrain, there are no locations to get expansive photos of hundreds of animals of different species together as far as the eye can see. We personally found the lodging in the park to be pleasantly rustic, and thought the change of background scenery provided a good compliment to the other parks on the trip. Assuming you can fit it in your itinerary, a visit to Tsavo West is certainly recommended along with the other fine parks in the Kenyan park system.

Life-changing, life-affirming and one of the most beautiful places I have been to on Earth.
Overall rating
4/5

We had a true outback experience. Staying in the tent camp, the facilities were good but basic and the food was excellent. The afternoon tea was a welcome addition to each day! It was easy to fall into the natural rhythm of the place - we got up with the sun and tracked elephants, leopards, lions and many other animals while taking in the beautiful scenery. Days filled with 4x4 drives and walking tours with experienced, witty and knowledgeable guides - perfect! Weather was just right; a few cloudy days but always warm and enjoyable. The highlight of my visit was climbing up the ridge known as the ampitheatre and sipping a beer while watching the sun set on elephants playing in the river below. The game reserve was a lot greener than expected, due to visiting near rainy season time. Many interesting locations to visit that offer amazing views and a superb range of animals: Eagle Rock, Baobab Rock and the Ampitheatre were just some of the places I enjoyed visiting. Spotted some Marshall Eagles and European Rollers, which were amongst my favourite sightings (apart from the elephants of course!). I highly recommend a visit here, it's somewhere to be truly at peace with yourself and with nature.

Thank you so much for the nice 5 days we spent in Tarangire,Lake Manyara,Serengeti & Ngorongoro
4/5

Hi Mike and Northern Circuit Adventure!

Thank you so much for the nice 5 days we spent in Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Despite our car was broken at the end of our first day and we lost some hours in Ngorongoro Crater, everything was very nice organized and we got a new car the next day.

We have seen a lot of animals and also from very close, which was very impressive and exciting. Ben was a very good cook who served us really nice food every single day it was delicious! Also our driver/ guide Thomas he was the best!

According to our broken car, Mike gave us a free ride by Taxi to the Kilimanjaro airport – what we really appreciated! We will recommend Northern Circuit Adventure to our friends in Switzerland!

Thank you!
