Such an amazing safari tour with this team !
Our trip between the Tuli Block and Victoria falls was really interesting and lovely ! Botswana is such a beautiful country... The wildlife, the landscapes, the traditional food, the cultural experiences (dances, traditionnal baskets...) was fascinating for us.
We really enjoyed our stay in every lodge (so comfortable!) and the organization was perfect, except maybe for the bumpy roads into the bush ;-)
The best part is the human quality of the team, the guides really loved their job, they are fun, full of interesting stories and really helpful. They took such good care of us... We will definitely come back next year !

Experience of a lifetime :)
Went for a 3 days 2 nights safari arranged by Wildebeest Safaris. Was an amazing experience! There are no words to express how beautiful and enriching going to the Maasai Mara is. Our guide James was superb and helped us see many many animals including a cheetah chase and kill a gazelle.
The trip was very well organized by Wildebeest Safaris, thanks to Noah. He answered all my questions patiently and helped me figure out the best options. Everything was taken care of - from the travel to and from the Mara, accommodation (at Ol Moran Tented camp which was amazing as well), all the game drives and meals as well.
Big thanks to Noah and Wildebeest Safaris!

We had an amazing safari trip with Soul of Tanzania. Can't imagine a better experience!
This was our first trip to Africa. We found it quite overwhelming choosing a travel company: there are so many that provide safari tours to East Africa.
From my first contact with Iris, I felt confident that I had chosen the right company. Response to my many emails was always prompt. Iris did a great job planning our itinerary. The recommendations she made regarding accommodation and the route we travelled turned out to be spot on. We appreciated the orientation provided by Iris on our arrival in Arusha and the opportunity to meet our guide, Nico.
Our vehicle exceeded our expectations. Extra height in the windows and wind up passenger windows meant we had uninterrupted views of the wildlife.
A guide can make the difference between a good tour and a great one! Nico was exceptional and did everything he could to ensure we had a fantastic Safari experience. He was very professional in his approach and is clearly very proud of the service Soul of Tanzania is providing.
Nico was very knowledgeable about the flora, fauna and the geography of East Africa. We learnt so much about Tanzania. We were impressed with Nico's intricate knowledge of the wildlife parks. Without this in depth knowledge of the parks and their wildlife we would not have been able to take such stunning photographs of the wildlife. Nico's careful organisation of our game drives meant we saw a huge number of animals and many varied landscapes. As for Nico's driving skills: they were exceptional.
We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food on our trip: particularly the hot lunches. We had expected to be eating paper bag lunches but instead dined like Kings and Queens (much to the envy of travellers with other Safari companies). We enjoyed the addition of wine and coffee with our lunches.
We had a wonderful first trip to Africa and would like to thank The Soul of Tanzania for providing us with such a rich experience.

A chance of a lifetime!
My boyfriend and I booked a half day safari with Lukundo Tours and we were blown away by the amazing experience we had. This company goes above and beyond. They picked us up at our hotel in Nairobi and had super cute safari hats for both of us. We were ready for the tour that day and went on it, but explained that we wanted to possibly book another tour in another part of Kenya for another day. They pretty much moved mountains to get us the tour. I was so impressed. While on the safari that day, our driver/tour guide was very knowledable and took us wherever we wanted to go. We saw an adolecent male lion and after leaving that spot, not too long after we wanted to return to see what he was up to. Our guide took us back there with enthusiasm. Before leaving the park he said "Ok so we need to do one more thing, we need to see Hippos". We saw giraffes, lions and rhinos up close and personal and he wanted to make sure we got he full experience and didn't leave without seeing everything we could. Two thumbs way up for this company ❤️⚡️

8-day Safari - Lake Manyara | Serengeti | Ngorongoro Crater
Elias and John were just incredible... so knowledgable and accommodating. We loved being in the Land Cruiser with John (he even put up with our senses of humour!), and we felt so good just leaving ourselves in his capable hands. We had some amazing laughs with John and he showed us the incredible natural world around us and under our noses.
The drive to the Serengeti can be bumpy, dusty and long but we loved every minute. There is so much to see and absorb in this incredible landscape. We chose to do two days in the Ngorongoro crater and are SO happy we did. The crater is just out of this world.
We had an incredible experience with World Air Travel & Tours. The food was great, we were always hydrated, the lodges were outstanding, service was really good and friendly everywhere.
Thanks Elias and John, and see you again soon. We're coming back with friends!!!

I Learned SO Much!
What a fantastic experience we had with Safaria! Our guide for the day shared his knowledge of not only the animals of Kruger, but also about the trees, shrubs, soil, rock formations, historic sites, and history of the park. The booklet we were given to mark our sitings in helped us to focus on what we were experiencing. Our needs and wants were catered to at every moment. We watched and listened to Africa wake up in the early morning, and we savored every site we experienced. Life long memories were made on our wonderful excursion with Safaria!

Vacations2africa is a trustworthy company with a team of proffesionals and commited wokers.
I am grateful beyond words for the whole Vacations2Africa team for helping me realize my goal. From your help with the logistics, bookings to our wonderful team of guides (James and Baraka ), cooks, waiters and porters it was run very well. We were made to feel like a part of the Vacations2Africa from day 1, and I can’t speak highly enough about the warmth, knowledge and professionalism of the whole bunch. We were all able to make the summit, and I have no doubt that it is down to them. From the guides keeping our spirits up (even singing to us in the dark on summit night!!), to being greeted by our porters into camp every day,
Our safari afterwards was a great way to wind down and see a bit more of this fabulous country Tanzania. I have emailed our guides to say thank you, but hope that everyone back at the office knows what an incredible job your troops on the ground are doing. Lots of people want to know about the trip and we are recommending Vaccations2Africa without hesitation.

Amazing Adventure with Restoration Safaris
My criteria for a Tanzanian safari were fairly simple. I wanted a locally-owned company that was environmentally responsible and safe with knowledgeable guides. Restoration Safaris ticked every box and then went above and beyond all expectations! We spent 9 days with Bariki and Emmanuel and everything was planned perfectly. From our Kilimanjaro hike to Ngorongoro to our incredible Serengeti game drive, the trip was spectacular. The lodging was comfortable and clean and in some cases world class (highly recommend Kubu Kubu lodge in Serengeti!). On top of all of that, Bariki is a true professional who not only knows seemingly everything there is to know, but genuinely cares about his country - from the plants and animals to the people. You couldn't go with a better company. Thank you Bariki and Restoration Safaris!

Excellent all through
From first contact we were very well served and informed by staff at Uniglobe. They responded quickly and efficiently to my requests for information. We hired a vehicle for 10 days and asked for a driver who would be familiar with the places we wished to visit as this was not a trip to just go to game parks. Our driver was wonderful, careful at all times and diligent in getting us to places that sometimes were not easy to find. We enjoyed his company. Where we had requested hotel bookings, they were done accurately and efficiently.
