Adventures in Zimbabwe and Botswana including Victoria Falls and safaris
I would highly recommend Alym from East Africa Wild Adventures. The whole group is very detail oriented and accommodating. Their suggestions were great for our adventures in Zimbabwe and Botswana. We would definitely use them again!

Extremely Organized! Amazing Experience! Outstanding Customer Service!
From the very beginning, working with Alym on planning our dream honeymoon was such a great experience. Alym is the type of guy that just oozes passion for what he does and for the entire safari experience. He and his team just wanted us to love Tanzania and safari as much as they do! He worked with us on tailoring the itinerary to exactly what we were looking to do/see and stay within our budget.
We stayed in the most beautiful hotels and absolutely loved our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and very easy going. We felt like we were with a pro!
This was the trip of a lifetime, and we highly recommend this company! Every need was met and our guides and accommodations were fantastic! We could not have had such a smooth trip without them! We will be using them for all our future trips to Africa!

Amazing experience!
We had a wonderful time with Selous Explorer. Communication was quick and efficient. The Hippo Camp we stayed at was right by the river and was even better than what we imagined and the guides and staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. There was a ton of delicious food 3x a day (it was more than necessary!) and the safaris itself were more than satisfying. Would definitely recommend it!

Great
We had a great safari experience with Wildebeest Safaris. He was very well organized sending us detailed emails of our itinerary and always replying quickly to any questions. The safari itself was great, our driver was lovely and it was very well organized.

Fika went the extra mile to ensure our honeymoon trip was the trip of a life time
The communication was transparent and we co-design the trip. However, they manage to excede our expectations by taking care of every detail and ensuring quality service from all hotels and other providers. The cherry on the top was our guide, he was really knowledgeable and aprovechable and help us have a blast in the trip

Trip of a lifetime!
I ( mother) and my 14 year old daughter travelled alone in a private car accompanied by our cool cook Ben who cracked us up with his Swahili-English; and with our professional guide/ driver Said who taught us so many things about wildlife and the Masai. He drove carefully and was attentive to any signs of potential danger. It was our first time in Tanzania on a safari. Felt safe and well guided throughout our 4-day trip. Medison, the company owner lent us his expensive Canon camera to take "professional" pictures without any hesitation! He even offered that we keep the memory card. That said, we managed to download all photos on our laptop. Much to our relief, even though we had initially negotiated for basic camping, upon request, he arranged for bedded accommodation at The Taj Rest House at no additional cost! It's a clean brand new place managed by TANAPA- with comfortable beds and solar heated hot showers, electricity and wifi (wow!) in the center of Serengeti ! We appreciated Medison's flexibility and goodwill. We enjoyed the comfort of a warm bed and hot shower. On the way out there, we stopped by Octagonal lodge - a gem located in the middle of nowhere - a 3 star cosy lodge serving 5-star level meals...delicious! During our email exchanges, Medison was prompt in replying to all queries. When I accidentally left the binoculars on the roof of the car, it fell off while we were driving and got damaged. Gosh ! Felt so bad. Said didn't lay any blame on me or ask for any compensation. He knew when to move the car and how to position it so that we would get the best views! And we got lucky! The animals came towards us ! Elephants and mama cheetah with her 5 cubs! Stopped right by a lion cub and could almost stroke it - so cute!! Worth every penny - not cheap but reasonably priced compared to other quotations received. Perhaps the vegetarian meals could be a bit more varied...Well worth It! Thank you so much! Asante Sana! A trip of a life time! Will never forget it. Will promote Tanzanian safaris for others to discover the beauty and magic of the place!

Very enjoyable, saw every thing I wanted to see, especially the elephant sanctuary and giraffes.
The service was good, vehicle comfortable. Visits very enjoyable especially the elephants and giraffes. Would have been nice to see bead factory working, not open on a Sunday.
Overall an enjoyable day.

Extremely satisfied!
From the very beginning of planning our trip Primate Tours gave us their undivided attention and listened to what we wanted to experience. We got regular emails from Bansey and Judy to discuss the trip and each aspect of it as it developed into our booking. They arranged everything, and I mean everything! Every detail was given attention and these ladies worked tirelessly to fit everything we wanted into the time we had. By the time we met them in person, it felt like I was greeting friends and family. Each day was a new adventure and we had the best time. The staff at Primate Tours really can’t be beaten on their high standards of customer care! They kept in touch with us throughout our trip and when we had to change plans ( due to change in circumstances) Primate handled the short notice changes wonderfully and so smoothly that you would never have known that it wasn’t always planned that way! All of the Primate staff were friendly and went out of their way to give us a personal experience. Our safari guide Hassan was so knowledgeable and we all felt very relaxed in his company. He laughed a lot with us and made our safaris and drives so amazing. It was so good to have people we could laugh with and we genuinely loved every day with him. In Mombassa we spent our time with Moses, another Primate Team member and he was also wonderful. We laughed and enjoyed the places he took us and the time flew so quickly. The Primate Staff made us feel so welcome, like lifelong friends! My children (aged 11 and 8) had such an amazing time and all the Primate Staff played games with them and made it so much fun. We even played crazy golf with them on our last day in Nairobi before we had to go to the airport! We all wished we could have stayed longer. It was an emotional trip with so many amazing moments and I am so pleased I trusted Primate Tours with this once in a lifetime trip. You really can’t do better than Primate Tours!

Amazing 5 Day Safari with our guide Fred and personal chef DVD
What can I say. The Safari was well organized and we had a lot of fun with these guys. Our guide Fred made a great effort to see all the animals we would like. We get never bored and he also knows a lot about flora and fauna. He had always and answer.
After the safari everything was set up (tent etc) and our chef DVD prepared popcorn and a fresh coffee. In the evening we ate quite good that means we never felt that we were on safari. He cooked every day differently and for dessert we had fresh yummy fruits. The BEST: He baked a cake for us after we told him that this journey is our honeymoon. And Fred organized a bottle of wine. How nice is that!!!!
So don't hesitate to book a safari with Orongai because everything was perfect. We will come back......
