Amazing experience
We spent 6 nights with Tomodachi around Ngorongoro and Serengeti during Christmas holidays. They organized for us an authentic and original experience in a Maasai village in Engaruka where we enjoed the true tribe culture outside the tourist circuit. We spent one night in a tent in a Boma, we felt welcomed and we will never foget the experience!
Then we started the safari game, where our driver Marc made the experience absolutely unforgettable. He was very professional, precise and always ready to meet our desires. He known everything about the national parks and we met ALL the wild animals very closely. He was called the "human GPS"!!! Because of he always knew the right place to go.
The lodges were stunning, cozy and confortable, with a beautiful view on the nature.
Compared with other companies a great value for money.
Furthermore the travel organizationfrom Italy with Joseph was very easy and simple.
Absolutely suggested.
Hope to come again soon!

Best Safari Company!!!
We were a group of 19 physicians in a conference in Kenya and we were recommended by our friends and it was the best decision that we took. Zippy was so patient in dealing with us as kept on changing our mind but once we agreed on what we wanted to do she was so professional our guides were fantastic but many thanks to the staff of Osero Camp who made sure that our stay in Mara was memorable. Thank you to every one!!! God Bless you all!!

Affordable safaris
WE HAD BEEN OFFERED A SAFARI 5 PAX FOR 30 000 USD INCLUDING AIRLINE AND COULD NOT AFFORD IT. WE THEN CAME TO CHITU SAFARIS AND THEY OFFERED US 15 000 USD ACCORDING TO OUR BUDGET. THE STANDARD WAS GOOD BUT NOT LUXURY, GOOD VEHICLES, GOOD FOOD AND GOOD ACCOMODATION AT ZANZIBAR AND WE SAVED 15 000 USD. WE RECOMMEND CHITU SAFARIS AFFORDABLE SAFARIS

Best holidays with Medison!
After 10 days full of amazing experiences with Medison, what can I say... He's a really friendly guide who knows everything about animals. This has been one of the best holidays ever, if not the best! And the most important thing is, as he said, we came as costumers but left as friends!
Asante sana!

Great Organization, Best Trip of our Lives!
We went into the organization blind. We knew only that we wanted a 6 nights safari, and we wanted to go to Victoria Falls and to the Okavango Delta. Philippa was incredible. She planned the perfect vacation for our family, making sure to check in with me every step of the way. She took care to change the plans according to what I told her, calling daily during the initial organization to make sure I was satisfied with the ongoing changes. After we had our final proposal, she answered all my questions regarding attire, flights, or other details.
We arrived in Johannesburg and stayed in a hotel near the airport, all booked by Philippa, then the "real" trip began.
We spent 2 nights in Victoria Falls, in the best lodge we could have hoped for, the Old Drift Lodge. During the planning, I had wanted to switch to Victoria Falls Safari Suites, and I am so thankful to Philippa for convincing me to keep the Lodge! We had animals roaming through our hotel, as we were inside the reserve. It was incredible. We also planned for White Water Rafting and for a Horse Riding Safari. Both activities were incredible!
Then we spent 2 nights in Chobe Game Lodge. The road transfer, including the crossing of the border, was perfectly organized. Staying inside the Chobe National Park is really worth it. We saw almost all the animals in our "to-watch" list there.
Then we took a small plane to the Okavango Delta for our last 2 nights. Again, the organization was flawless. The camp was lovely and the game drives exciting!
All the camps, transfers and arrangements were perfectly planned, we never had an issue during the trip.
I am glad I found Giltedge Travel and Philippa, as they gave us an incredible experience! All transfers, lodges, and communications couldn't have been better. Thank you for making this past Christmas unforgettable!

Trip of a life time
My mom and I went on safari for 7 days in Dec. She had chemo in Nov and this was her get out and celebrate trip of a life time. Our guide Kikitu (Evens) was great! We were lucky to have him for our entire trip. Most tourists seemed to have been pasted between drivers depending on where they were going. Everyone was always nice about it though.
It rained the night before we went to Masai Mara and the roads were a bit ruff to say the least! Evens was the one that had pulled out all the other drivers that would get stuck in the mud, but never got stuck himself.
Christmas Eve, late in the afternoon, we arrived at Amboseli park. I forgot the name of the camp... anyways they had lost our reservations for the first night. Evens made some calls and we were put up in a tent for the night. The tent had holes all over and some kind of creature in the bathroom scratching the tent to get in. The second night we were moved and upgraded to a cabin/tent hybrid.
We saw every animal we could think of and then some thanks to Evens. He seemed to know every driver in Kenya and able to find the best places. We would go back again if it didn't take two days to get to Kenya.

A walk around Nairobi
My trip was only short as I was attending a conference.I heard about Maurice from a colleague, so gave him a call.
I was glad I did. He really is a pleasant man who made the walk around the city and the visit to the museum not
only educational but not interesting too.

Excellent.
Jaco was a brilliant tour guide. He gave us great insights into the animals and South African history. His meals were very good too. We really enjoyed the 3 days.

An amazing introduction to the beauty and hospitality of Uganda!
We had an absolutely phenomenal trip to Uganda. We had short time due to work constraints and our group was all arriving at different times. Aaron was the best host, he was prompt, easy to communicate with and so engaging. He made the pick up seamless and all the transport seamless. We also got to unexpectedly squeeze in an extra excursion to the golden back monkeys after an epic day with the silver back gorillas which was so special! The accommodations were good and food was fine as well. We really enjoyed every moment of the trip with him and he was very easy to work with and allowed us to stop for photos and other random detours.
