The best tour i have ever experienced!
My partner and I went on many different safaris whilst in Africa for 7 weeks and Gilmag was by far the best company we could have asked for. Mary and her team helped us tailor our safari to what we needed and also for a very reasonable price with various options to suit our budget. We recieved the most incredible customer service from the initial contact until the time we completed our safari.
We cant thank Mary enough for everything and even though safaris can be about what nature wants to offer us, we were blessed with the most amazing animal sightings ever. Cant recommend Gilmag enough. Thankyou all so much!

Wonderful day trip at Tarangire
My boyfriend and I had a wonderful experience at Tarangire national park! The communication with Richard was perfect, and he made sure to have everything arranged despite the very short notice we gave him. James, our driver and guide, was incredibly kind and experienced, and we really enjoyed spending a day with him. This was our first safari experience and we didn´t really know what to expect. Now I can say that I´m glad we chose Mali Kale, as the service with got was definitely worth the price, which was also very convenient!

Wonderful time in Kenya with Jackson
We had an excellent time with Classic Safaris! From our arrival in Nairobi to our drop off back at the airport, everything was handled professionally. The tour descriptions online were accurate and accommodations and meals were excellent throughout. We can't say enough good things about our guide, Jackson, who knew so much about each area and the wildlife and helped us to see all of the big five during our relatively short safari. We wished the first hotel in Nairobi were a little nicer and in the future would pay more for it to be, but the other accommodations more than made up for this. Notably, Jackson and Classic Safaris went out of their way when our flight was delayed to fill our afternoon and evening with a visit to feed giraffes and get dinner and then dropped us off safely at the airport. We would definitely travel with them again in the future!

A trip of a lifetime to beautiful Tanzania
We, 7 friends from Canada, were looking to plan an adventure to Tanzania, Africa that included a Mount Kilimanjaro 8 day climb and a Safari tour. While looking for help to plan and organize this adventure we came across Zohar African Safaris, a local company that is operated out of Arusha. The owner/operator, Lilian Mbise-Kramer was quick to respond to our inquires and mapped out our entire trip with 3 different ending itineraries. She was extremely patient and helpful with us while we made decisions about our stay and individual plans.
During our time in Tanzania the level of service and support we experienced from Lilian and her crew of guides and porters was exceptional. Lilian was resourceful at managing and troubleshooting issues, questions or last minute requests; all were handled swiftly and professionally. Lilian also had a few surprises for us along the way (a huge celebration awaited us at the end of our Kili climb).
We can't thank Lilian and her team (Isah, Peter, Julius (Kili guides); Adam and Nixon (Safari guides)) enough for showing us their beautiful country with grace, kindness and friendship - you are all such wonderful ambassadors of your country - we hope we have the opportunity to visit again one day!

Unforgettable memories of the Namib Desert
A wonderful tour, which was operated by Chad. From the start to the end of the tour, everything was perfect. You could see what you imagined through this adventure. What I really wanted to see through this Namib desert tour was not only desert but also some specific explanations about desert. In this sense, Chad was a real expert about Namib desert(If you are skeptical you can see company's profile). Also he became a good father to us, I could feel that in every moment of the tour. What I liked the most was he really enjoyed being out in the desert. The way he enjoys and organizes this trip, I was really impressed.
Highly recommend! Patrick From South Korea. I will miss this adventure in my home. Thank you so much Chad, and Wild Cherry:)

Great and trustful safari tour operator that provided us with a wonderful and memorable adventure!
From the first inquiries, I was very impressed with the communications I had with Caudence. Her responses were timely and clear. I felt that Earthlife Expeditions would be a trusted operation and they didn't disappoint. Caudence was very professional as we navigated what my husband and I were hoping to experience as we wanted to see the Great Migration and stay in mid-range tents and lodging. That being said, she proposed the perfect 15 day itinerary with an awesome tour and accommodations. I appreciated her knowledge and expertise. Our guide/driver, Ballela, picked us up from the Kilimanjaro airport and began our incredible 10 day safari portion of our trip. Without doubt, he is the reason we had a fantastic experience. He took us to the Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Western and Central Serengeti and Ngorongoro where we saw EVERYTHING!! Ballela's expertise and knowledge of the area and animal behavior was unsurpassed. His skill set and exceptional timing provided us with the opportunity to see thousands of wildebeest cross the Grumeti, the BIG FIVE, even a cheetah taking down a zebra. He was always willing to answer our questions. I feel we learned so much from him. He even included bird sightings after I mentioned I had a checklist of birds, he proceeded to identify every bird we saw. Perhaps the best part, besides seeing all the amazing animals, were the conversations and stories that were shared with Ballela, those will truly be cherished. I would definitely recommend Earthlife Expeditions!!

Outstanding organization and service!!!
We had a spectacular 2 week visit to Kenya organized by Gametrackers. We visited Lake Bogoria, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara and Mombasa. Stacey helped with every aspect of advising and planning our tailor-made trip, even making last minute changes to facilitate following the flamingos to their new feeding area. Our accommodations and guides (Adrian, Jacob, John) were outstanding; every effort was made to see that our every need was met and that we saw the best sights in our allotted time. I would totally recommend using this company!!

Africa Zim provided thorough and thoughtful service, and a spectacular life-time experience!
Big thank you to Blessing and Tendayi!
The 9 day/8 night tour, from Victoria Falls, through Chobe National Park, Elephant Sands, and the Okavango Delta, was well organized and an incredible experience. The lodges, tent stays and meals were very satisfactory. So happy to have had the mokoro and nature walks in our tour! An exceptional value. I hope to travel with Blessing and Tendayi again, and highly recommend Africa Zim Travel and Tours!
