African Coast Travel and Tours; especially Joseph were absolutely wonderful; HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!
The Safari Package was Wonderful! We arrived in Zimbabwe and were picked up by Cryface (who is one of the kindest people I have met) and took us to our hotel; we went for a night cruise. The next morning we were picked up promptly and I opted to do the Microlight over Victoria Falls (sign up for this) and spent the afternoon at Victoria Falls, did a Lion Walk (sign up for this) followed by an evening at the Boma. The third day we went to Botswana for an incredible water/ land safari and loved every minute of it. The last morning we woke up to the roaring of Victoria Falls. Our hotels were fantastic - Victoria Falls Safari Lodge and Victoria Falls Hotel. On our last day, Joseph was able to join us and take us to the airport. He made sure we had the best vacation and cannot wait to rebook with Joseph and his team on another wonderful African Stay. I highly recommend this company!

An Incredible and Breathtaking Experience
I went on a Safari as part of a group of 12 with Go Explore Safaris in early August 2018. It was an incredible experience and one I would not change in any way.
Our safari was based in the beautiful Queen Elizabeth National Park. We saw so many amazing animals such as Warhogs, Buffaloes, Chimpanzees, Water bucks, Uganda Kobs, Leopards, Hippos, Lions, Monkeys, Rhinos, Elephants and more. Go Explore Safaris did their absolute best to ensure we saw these animals while out exploring.
On day one we were handed an outstanding itenery which included so many activities, such as multiple game drives, chimpanzee trekking and a trip on a boat on a lake. It was all very well organized and so much was packed into our limited time there.
We stayed at Buffalo Safari Lodge which is located in Queen Elizabeth National Park. We were treated like royalty. The breakfast, lunch and suppers were delicious. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The views were unbelievable. The staff were very friendly and willing to do anything for us. You really felt at one with the wildlife in the park.
Brian was our main tour guide and was the one who organized the entire trip for us. He was fantastic. He was very easy to get along with and extremely efficient in every aspect of the Safari. He could not have done more to ensure we had the very best experience of Queen Elizabeth National Park. I could not fault Brian in any way, he is what all Safari men should aspire to be.
I would recommend Go Explore Safaris to anyone interested in doing a Safari in Africa and I honestly don’t think anyone could be disappointed with their service.

We loved every moment of our 5 days camping safari!
We loved every moment of our 5 days camping safari with Suricata Safaris. Booking and communication was really easy as Hilary, the owner, replied immediately to my inquiry and all of our questions. He organised a pickup for us as well as an airport transfer afterwards. We were 2 friends and were paired up with another 2 young travellers and spent 5 days in Serengeti and Ngorongoro parks. Our guide and driver Freddie knew absolutely everything about the animals and approached them with respect and admiration. It’s that sort of attitude you want your guide to have. We saw so many animals and even the great migration in the north of Serengeti and the famous wildebeest river crossing! If you travel with Freddie, don’t forget to ask him what his favourite animal is, his sense of humour is brilliant :)
Hilda was our chef and we still have no idea how she managed to prepare all the amazing feasts for us in the middle of the wild on a tiny portable stove with almost no light just from supplies we brought with us.
The camping option is a proper camping and although each campsite has washrooms and flushing toilets, electricity is not a given so make sure you have flashlights and appropriate clothes, it got very cold in Ngorongoro campsite in late July at night, you need a few layers.
We totally recommend choosing Suricata Safaris. It's a smaller company with a very friendly and personal approach that you simply do not get with larger tourist operators. All the people we met were amazing and passionate about their jobs. Hilary simply lives for his company and makes sure his clients are happy, it’s so nice to meet somebody who loves his job as much as he does.

spendid safari outing with the Mogalakwena Safari team
From Namibia we did self drive , and booked our safari with Mogalakwena for a camping experience, we had fun, we enjoyed our safari camping, we couldn't ask for something better than this, though our 4x4 seemed to struggle with the sand, the guides managed to find a way out, we are happy but please next time bring a many tents we had to share , though we had no problem in sharing, we liked your local food and enjoyed travelling around seeing local made products, what stood out was the mokoro trail was my first time, anxious and afraid but it was adventurous.
Convey my greetings to Martha the chef, we miss you see you next time.

Seeing amazing nature with a 5-star organization
We booked a 5-day private tour with Shemeji, visiting Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Emma was very helpful and provided all the necessary information in a timely fashion.
We enjoyed the safari very much. Everything was extremely well organized, Joseph was an exceptional guide. He did his best to spot the animals, regardless whether big or small (btw, we found all big fives...).
We were also very pleased with the accommodation and services provided (if we do not consider a misbehaved stray elephant, which managed to empty our water tank in the tented camp during night :-)
During our 5-day experience we fully realized the meaning of words "Karibu (welcome)" and "Pole pole (slow slow or no hurry/stress)"...
Highly recommended!
Asante sana, Joseph, Emma and Shemeji!

All taken care of from the airport to the wonders of Namibia
Lark Journeys was probably the best choice to explore the wonders of Namibia. The friendly team prepared a great journey for me and my friends. Everything was well thought through right from the airport to amazing locations: Windhoek, Fish River Canyon, Luderitz, Swakopmund and the gem of the trip Etosha Park. Transport, tents and all camping materials were all taken care of. We had a good balance between camping and hotel stays. The journey was a great adventure where all needs were met and it was an epic dive in the wonders of this amazingly rich with experience country. Whatever your expectations of Namibia, Lark Journeys can exceed them!

very good
I took 3 day tours which was the best way to see so much in such limited time, bothe the okavango delta and Mokoro safaries were brilliant, however the early morning drive to morembi NP was not anything I would want or advise anyone else to endure, winter time on the back of an open truck was so cold it caused painful
That apart Xaa safaris were excellent friendly and hekpfull in booking and its guides were both knowledgeable , friendly and made the trips a wonderful experience

Splendid Safari trip to Tanzania with friends
We have literally a good time in Tanzania, all credit goes to Migration Venture Africa Ltd because at the last moment I and my friends had planned a safari trip to Tanzania and the team has organised our trip & offered us an awesome discount. We've visited Mount Climbing, Serengeti National Park and Arusha. Thanks, team!

Experience that has forever changed me !!
Communication was spot on from the very beginning of my planning. Mr. O is always attentive and very fast to respond to all of my emails throughout the months leading up to my trip.
My guide Dalton(Ali) was an absolute joy to spend 10 days with. He was very knowledgeable with everything having to do with Kenya, from the animals, the countryside, and the people. He made the long drives between reserves very enjoyable with his whitty conversation. Traveling alone, I felt completely safe in my surroundings with Dalton. I was able to see all of the animals that I envisioned seeing while I was there. There were absolutely no disappointments. I highly recommend Dalton as you’re number one guide in Kenya. A guide can Make or break your Safari experience and mine was beyond amazing. I can’t wait to plan a trip back for I am forever changed having visited Kenya. I was very sad to leave !
