Couldn't have been better! Tolbert is incredibly friendly and insightful.
The safari tour was so much fun. Tolbert was able to answer any questions we had and seem to know the places to find the best sights. The lodges/hotels/resorts we stayed at went well beyond my expectations. Everywhere we stayed came with stunning views, amazing meals, and helpful and friendly staff.

Dream come True - 19 day Namibian/Victoria Falls/Botswana Adventure
We would happily recommend indigo safaris to organise your holiday. We had a few ideas on what we would like to do, the accommodation type and travelling we were happy with, but were struggling to put it all together. Ines responded quickly to our request, and sent us ideas on how to collate our trip to Namibia, Victoria falls and Botswanna. We exchanged a few e mails, and, everything fell into place very easily. Payment was simple through a gb account.
Our trip turned out to be be far better than we imagined. Everything went smoothly apart from a delayed flight with Namibian Airways. Our guide Rudi was a star throughout our tour of Namibia. He had a passion for his country and its peoples and wild life which he shared with us throughout our trip. We always felt safe in his care, and he went out of his way to help us enjoy our first visit to Africa. His knowledge of his country was extensive and we were sad to see our trip come to an end. Expect very bumpy roads and long days, with early starts but it was worth every bump to experience such diversity. The landscape is stunning.
After leaving Namibia, we flew to Victoria Falls, which is needless to say a must see. The sunset cruise on the Zambezi is lovely, but our early morning experience of a lion encounter was incredible. It's a must do.
We flew into the Okovango delta in a light aircraft and stayed two nights at Odd balls camp. If you want to have time out this is the place to go! The delta was very low on water but we enjoyed the trekking walks with our guide who again was a fountain of knowledge. We were lucky enough to come across lions on our very last morning.
Thank you Ines, it's been an amazing Trip. Your help and guidance made it happen.

Trip of a Lifetime!
I can't thank Rose enough at The Luxury Safari Company for putting together such an amazing trip for our family of 5! Right from the time we inquired to when we got home, Rose was incredibly efficient at returning emails, calls and answering my numerous questions as this was our first trip to Africa.
Our first location was at And Beyond Serengeti Under Canvas camp in central Tanzania. We were amazed with the service, food and kind people!! Our guide, Mohammed and tracker, Katuma, were incredibly knowledgeable. We saw the Big 5 in our three nights/4 days stay and had the best time with them. The early sunrises and packed picnic style breakfasts were definitely a treat!
Our second location was the Mkombe house in northern Tanzania. We flew there via Coastal Air and all of our transport and connections were so smooth...once again, thanks to Rose for organizing this!
This house is a must!! Set against a rocky outcropping and the tall swaying grasses of the Serengeti it was simply breathtaking! Once again, the service and food was incredible. It was so nice to relax by the pool in the afternoons before we went back out on our drives. I'll never forget falling to sleep with the sounds of lions roaming around...quite surreal! We also got to see the Big 5 here with our excellent guide, Emmanuel. On the last evening he surprised us with a "Sundowner". He took us to a large rock that was set up with wine and snacks to watch the sunset in true Tanzanian style.
Our third location was White Sands Villas in Zanzibar. Again, this was a beautiful place to relax and enjoy the endless white sand beaches after trekking through the Serengeti.
I highly recommend booking your trip of a lifetime with Luxury Safari Company! The only question you will have is "Why haven't we done this sooner?!"

Excellent Safari Guide
Joined a 3-day tour to the Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater. The guides/drivers were super professional and nice. They could spot animals from far far away and show us where to look. We saw lots of animals, such as lions, cheetahs, rhinos, hippos, and elephants. They also had a book about birds and showed us which type of birds we were seeing whenever we came across any birds. There were drawings and descriptions about the birds in the book, which we could learn a lot. The whole tour experience was wonderful and we got more than expected.

Well-organized and itinerary exactly as described!
I am so glad we booked with Kiliholidays! Mack, the owner of the tour company, was excellent in communicating with me via email! He was quick to respond to all of my questions and concerns. We booked two tours: Mt. Kilimanjaro 6-day Marangu route and also a 3 night/4 day safari. Both were amazing and unforgettable experiences! For Mt. Kilimanjaro tour: what can I say, we LOVED our guides Paroko and Baracka!!! They were so friendly, encouraging, helpful and wonderful to talk to! Our porters and cook were also fantastic! Perhaps bring an extra blanket to keep you warm during the cold nights as the sleeping bags they provided could have been better, but other than that, we had a great time! For our safari, we went to Tarangire, the Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. Each park was beautiful and our guide, Thomas, was excellent! He was able to find so many animals for us. It was crazy how sharp his eye was! We saw the big 4 on the first day thanks to him! We stayed at Farm of Dreams Lodge and Tukaone Camp. WOW!!! Loved both!!! Loved the comfort of a wonderful hotel at Farm of Dreams Lodge and the awesome experience of “glamping” at Tukaone!!! Very glad we booked with Kiliholidays! Very transparent, trustworthy company that delievered what they promised in our discussions!

Marvellous experience!
Our custom tour was well organized with great accommodations, prompt responses to any queries and notification, plus a refund for any changes. Aside from being able to see the gorillas, chimpanzees and monkeys so close up, our experience was definitely enhanced with the quality of our guide/driver. He was exceptional! He was knowledgeable about Uganda - wildlife, farming practices, history, governance and global events for example, which made for excellent discussion during some of the long drives. He was also curious about our home country and asked many thoughtful questions. Our guide/driver was calm, consistently positive and an extraordinarily good driver, no matter the road conditions.
