This company is very friendly, service minded, and give a good price!
As safaris is in the wild, one can never promise to see anything.. But Bosco never gives up. He is very friendly and wants to give his customers the best experience! The trips I have had with Bosco have been excellent. Don't miss out a trip with him!

Perfect Experience with Joseph and Africa Vacation Safaris
Our recent trip with Joseph was wonderful. He helped us to plan the perfect safari tour covering multiple locations and included everything we wanted to see for a very reasonable price.
Joseph is highly knowledgeable about wildlife and skilled at identifying species at great distances, which allowed us to track down and see far more animals than we'd anticipated close up. He knew where to find some of the species which are generally more difficult to find (such as black and white rhinos and lions) and prioritised these. This gave us one of the most fantastic experiences we've ever had!
On route to safari, Joseph handled some of the most difficult roads with care and experience so we felt very safe at all times. Joseph was extremely punctual, arriving early to collect us each day and maintaining excellent time-keeping whilst also having the patience of a saint and being flexible to our requests. As well as being able to answer our questions about the animals and provide us with much interesting information, Joseph was also a great conservationist and made us feel extremely welcome. We would certainly hire Joseph again for a trip or safari and would give him our highest recommendation to anyone else.

We were always well looked after, safe and Thinus ensured that we saw the best of Namibia.
The trip was more than expected as Thinus had arranged a varied and interesting itinerary covering different landscapes, people groups and wildlife experiences. The accomodation was very comfortable and well positioned. The truck was well suited to the variety of road conditions and Thinus was a great driver who also kept us well informed and shared his love of Namibia with us. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble and he was concerned that we saw the most we could in the time.

Safe, nice welcome and knowledgeable staff
A great help to have safari guides that are knowledgeable and helpful. They know their way around and communicate with each other so it is always a pleasure going with them.

The most outstanding trip we have every had ,as the accomodations, food and Safaris were spectacular
This was a trip of a lifetime for us, and by choosing Odyssey Safaris we were not disappointed. The accomodations were first rate ,the food
was always delicious and presented well, even the boxed lunches. The Safaris , however were the main thrill. We cannot say enough good things about our driver Simon. Not only was he a very careful driver, but attentive to our needs and was a great source of information.
All of our arrangements were prefectly timed and smoothly made. Odyssey did a wonderful job of making these arrangements so hassle free.
We were treated to some of the most outstanding views of this country and were never disappointed in the wild life we were able to observe in it's natural habitat. We cannot say enough about how welcomed we felt by the Odyssey staff, all of the hotel staff and the peopleof Kenya and Tansania overall. It was a such a memorable trip.

Reliable and efficient in all aspects
My trip to South Africa, Botswana and Zimbabwe, which was to be my first incursion ever into the African continent, at first seemed to be very challenging to plan and organize. However, thanks to African Savanna Travel and its representative, Tanja Joubert, all went smoothly, from the beginning to the end. Tanja managed to assemble a customized package which was taylored exactly to my needs and interests, paying attention to every detail and taking care of matters one would no expect a travel agent to be concerned about. She does whatever she can to help her clients, and, what is amazing, making the bill fit the budget limitations. Her selection of accommodations for my trip proves how knowledgeable she is of her business. In spite of being on the moderate price brackets, all of them exceed my expectations, by providing excellent service and having a distinct touch in terms of location and ambiance. Highly recommended.

Excellent, professional and responsive. Tammy was always quick to reply to any inquiry.
The Garden Route was enjoyable and overnight stays very pleasant - above-average accommodations. The safaris were luxurious and more than we could have hoped for. We thought the safaris were expensive when quoted but now understand why they were pricy - amazing resorts that were an experience of a lifetime. Service at each resort was incredible as were the meals. Safari staff were very knowledgable and attentive as well as flexible. We loved very minute of this amazing adventure. All of our expectations were met and more!
Thank you, Tammy for your excellent itinerary and for helping us with any difficulties as we progressed.
Our only disappointment was that our driver during the Garden Route continually ran 'interference' with the person in our group who had done a lot of research and had a clear idea of what we wished to do. He took us to places he insisted were worthy of our time but most were not. He resisted many of our suggestions, never asked us if we had plans for the day and only after almost 'ganging' up on him, did he reluctantly agree to drive us where we asked. There was obvious tension between him and our group 'leader' which made things less pleasant. His attire was also a bit too 'informal' plus we had no microphone for the entire tour (it broke the first hour of the first day), so he really didn't operate as a guide. He promised to get it repaired but was not able to do so. Disappointing. Pembury and Tammy did a wonderful job helping us plan and carry out a very special tour.
