Amazing experience
Amazing day, Hell’s gate was amazing with incredible landscapes and animals. Then the cruise on Lake Naivasha was the best way to end the day.
I’ll be back for sure!! Thanks Felix, you’re the best !!

Simply Amazing! The best service one can wish for.
Incredible 10-day safari at Maasai Mara
This was our third trip with Africa Safari Classics, and as usual everything was excellent. Maurice helped us plan the trip on quite short notice, and his recommendations were just perfect. All the camps had incredible accommodation and service, lovely and kind staff and very well located for game drives.
Maurice was on top of everything, calling us on texting to ensure things were running smoothly as per plan. He even took the time to come to meet at the hotel before departing to the reserve. And this was on a Sunday!
I can’t recommend Africa Safari Classics enough. They have the knowledge, the experience and always strive for the best quality. And at affordable prices.
Special mentioned to our guide and driver, Peter. He was the best! Not only does he have an incredible knowledge of the wildlife but also, he is the most patience, respectful and understanding guide you can wish for. He was always willing to give us more time with the animals, share his knowledge, accommodate the day based on our preferences. Honestly, this trip would have not been so good without him! 5 stars also for Peter!

An unforgettable adventure!
If someone asks us - what was one of the best days of your life? - No doubts: the day we spent on safari with African Ambition Tours. Everything was organized amazingly accurately, comfortably, professionally. Starting from the planning of our trip (recommendations, advices, communication thru messangers - many thanks for Galina!) and ending with the trip itself, the Ngorongoro Park, the most beautiful views of wildlife and animals, which were shown to us in all its glory by a real professional and a wonderful person, a guide and the founder of the company - Dismas. He made our trip and the first safari unique and unforgettable, such that we flew away with the idea to visit these places again and explore other national parks together with African Ambition Tours. Also we were impressed by the incredibly cozy and comfortable hotels in Arusha and Karatu, delicious food and real safari off-roader (which we never tried before) and which was only for us! Highly reccomend African Ambition Tours! p.s. Dismas, little Barbara one more time saying "thank you for giraffes!" :)))

Diverse and comprehensive tour around all of Zimbabwe
We are a family of four -- my wife, our two kids aged 3 and 9, and myself. We live in Europe and have just returned from a 3.5 week long tour in Zimbabwe. The entire tour was organized by Forche Tours and Travel, specifically Mr. Fortune Ndlovu. I contacted Forche Tours and Travel, as well as 5 other safari/tour companies in Zimbabwe, only about 4 weeks prior to our planned trip and gave them a rough idea of what we're hoping to see and where to do. All companies I communicated with were quite forthcoming and eager to please, so I ended up creating a rough itinerary on my own and sent the same routing/schedule to everyone to get a sense of feasibility and cost. At that point, three companies stopped being responsive, and three provided quotes but two were quite high and required a number of sacrifices to be made in terms of quality and time. Only Mr. Fortune's messages genuinely seem to be focused on our own wishes and budget and I felt that he was the only person I communicated with who really wanted to help us be able to afford the trip and make something special happen, rather than just "plug" us into a tour template and make as much money as possible. So, we ended up going with Mr. Fortune and his Forche tours. We paid a deposit of 10% online through his website and paid the remainder all in cash when we actually arrived in Harare. Mr. Fortune picked us up on arrival and stayed with us for 24 days as he drove us around all of Zimbabwe and organized the trip and activities at every step. Essentially, it was like having a private driver and concierge with us all the time so that we could focus only on enjoyment, new experiences, and learning. The latter was especially important to me and I was extremely pleased to see that Mr. Fortune is very well-spoken, educated, informed, and insightful -- he was able to answer all my questions and discuss complex topics, from animal behaviour to history of different ethnic groups in Zimbabwe to diversity of religions, complexities of politics, environmental and climate change issues -- it was really incredibly informative and interesting. Our routing was roughly Harare--Mana Pools--Imire--Nyanga--Gonarezhou--Great Zimbabwe--Matopos---Hwange--Victoria Falls and we thought it was a really good combination of game drives, village visits, cultural and historical sites, ruins, natural beauty and geological wonders, quite a bit of everything. Our accommodations were great everywhere, food excellent, activities amazing. All in all, we're very happy with our trip and the way it was organized by Forche Tours and Travel and implemented by Mr. Fortune who was with us the whole way. Zimbabwe is a fascinating and an incredibly safe country and we would highly recommend everyone to visit it and when doing so, to feel confident in traveling with Forche Tours and Travel.

Professionals! The sole reason why I was able to get to the top of Kilimanjaro.
I went on a 7-day Machame Route Kilimanjaro hiking trip with 7 Wonders Safaris and they were all professionals from beginning to end. The porters and our guide were friendly and they would often analyze the situation and my condition every day and see what they can do to help me succeed in getting to the top of Kilimanjaro.
The guide, Issa knows a lot about the mountains and he always help instructed me on what was to come everyday making the hike smooth and problem-free.
I was able to summit the Uhuru Peak, all because of them so kudos.

Highest quality service received in my nearly 40 years of business and travel experience
I began researching and working on a safari with Right Choice Tours for myself and eight friends in May of 2021 for travel to Kenya in October. My previous experience as a travel and event planner of nearly 40 years was the stage on which I started my planning. In the five months prior to travel, I likely emailed George Oketch over 100 times with questions and updates. Throughout the process, George responded with intent, patience, kindness, interest and understanding with the utmost of knowledge and in a very timely manner. I always felt my questions were valued and understood and that my recommendations from previous experiences were appropriately considered. All of this being of utmost importance to our group when considering travel during Covid. Right Choice took every precaution and measure to make sure that we felt safe and were making accurate decisions in an ever changing world and array of situations. I also felt like the value for the money was of the highest quality as I had traveled to Kenya previously as a high end business traveler as well as a service humanitarian so I was familiar with needs and costs at different levels.
Upon arriving in Kenya, we were met with two high end first class jeeps and two incredible drivers - Teddy Oburu and Ken Ojema. My words of praise for both of these men is of the highest regard. For the next 10 days, we were treated with kindness, enthusiasm, respect, humor and abundant knowledge as we set out to enjoy the surroundings of Nairobi, Tsavo West, Amboseli, Nakuru and Masai Mara. Teddy and Ken are now among my circle of "best friends" and I hope to one day return in the not too distant future to set out on new adventures with them.
Our itinerary included time at the infamous Stanley Hotel in Nairobi with stops at the Elephant Orphanage and the Giraffe Center followed up by a wonderful afternoon experience at the Karen Blixen Museum with an evening dinner at the Carnivore Restaurant. We then spent 2 nights at the Voyager Ziwani in Tsavo West, 2 nights at the absolutely incredible Tawi Lodge in Amboseli, followed by a flight to Nakuru with a 1 night stay at the Cliff Nakura and 2 nights at the Entim Mara Camp. We were lucky enough to see all of the big five and an abundant array of wildlife in our time at these amazing National Parks. We followed it all up with a balloon ride over the Mara and a champagne breakfast on the open savannah.
Needless to say - we had a life altering experience. This all due to the incredible service and attention to detail offered by George Oketch, and our amazing drivers Teddy and Ken and Right Choice Tours.
