Great & affordable Tour
Peter, our driver, was amazing! He was always on time, explained everything and made sure we were able to see the big 5, although we had booked the 2 days Tour only. The hotel the agency had booked for us was good too... Nothing luxurious, but good for 1 night.

Excellent ,everything was beautifully organised by Tammy via email.
This was our first trip to South Africa so we sent Tammy our wish list, what type of accommodation we liked and an indication of our budget.She came back with a proposal which I don't think we even need to tweek.Between booking and the date of our trip Tammy kept in contact and promptly answered any of our queries. We were met at the airport ,taken to our hotel and given our itinerary. Next morning Lele Mbinda picked us up promptly and took us on the first of three tours in Cape Town. The tours were adapted according to the weather and our special interests. We flew to Durban to pick up a hire car for the next stage of our trip. All the instructions got us to our hotels easily and each had its own character.The Rhino Ridge Lodge was one of the highlights. During the three nights we stayed we went on six game drives with Hala who ensured we saw an amazing variety of wildlife,identifying any we didn't know. The truck seldom had more than four passengers and you felt like you were on your own private safari. The staff at the lodge itself were friendly and helpful, and the food well balanced in terms of size and variety. The staff sing for residents birthdays was something special. As visitors from the UK the only hairy bits were driving on dirt tracks in a hire car in Rorke's Drift and Hluhluwe Imfolosi Park but that was inexperience. It was a wonderful holiday beyond our expectations and we are very grateful to Tammy for her organisation and suggestions.

A wonderful life time experience full of fun.
It was my first time visiting a Widelife Reservation Centre and I was initially apprehensive. My apprehensive soon gave way to fun in the hands of our able tour guide, Richard who thrilled us with stories about Uganda and the Widelife Centre. He made sure we visited all the different animals at the centre with the guidance of the Widelife centre guides. We latter has food and drinks.
The trip to the Source of the Nile and Lake Victoria was equally thrilling. We had lots of fun with the Deejay and music on the cruise. We ate deep fried Tilapia fish and drank Nile Special beer. Richard is really good at this job. Kudos to him.

wonderful experience with an awesome guide (Joseph)
I went on a Big Yellow Truck tour with Absolute Africa this past September and while in Uganda, we partnered with Joseph, who gave us such an incredible experience while visiting. The gorilla experience was out of this world amazing. It will truly be a top travel highlight when I look back on my life years from now. While there, a few in my group also visited a local family who owned a coffee plantation. I've been on coffee plantation tours in other countries before, but what made this one special was the interaction with Joseph and all the extras he added in terms of interaction with the local children. So endearing. And the family from the coffee farm was just so sweet, too. Thank you, Joseph, for going above and beyond our expectations. You are a true gem...a wonderful soul. Hope to meet again in life one day! Best of luck to you in all you set out to accomplish! (Sorry for how long it took me to write this review!!)

The Best!
This was the second time we booked with Zambezi and we couldn't be happier. The knowledge Mark and team have about pretty much the entire African continent is impressive. Mark always takes the time to get to know our preferences and what we like and (more importantly, what we dont). They wont try to oversell you and know that more expensive doesnt always mean better.
FOr our most recent trip to Serengeti in December, we trust Zambezi so much that we told them when we wanted to travel and where, and they planned everything for us - and that was that! I didnt even have to research anything, because I knew whatever Mark and team planned for us we'd like. And we did!
Looking forward to booking our next safari with Zambezi soon! We really cant think of booking our safari's with anyone else. Thanks to everyone at Zambezi for taking good care of us!

Thakadu was extremely well run and staff excellent and the service was great. Everyone went out of their way to make sure the guests enjoyed the experience of the camp . The River Camp was spotless. A very enjoyable time.

Very professional and personalised service for a safari trip
From the moment we contacted Pembury tour, we were impressed by its professional and high quality service. Our contact person, Tammy, always responded promptly to our specific needs and desires for our safari trip. She was flexible and accommodating throughout the planning phase of the trip, and recommended various options for the choice of the game reserves and lodges. She even managed to insert a tour of the Panorama Route during the transfer from the 1st game reserve to the 2nd at our request, which turned out to be a wonderful break in-between the two safari activities. The entire trip went seamlessly, with all of the three tranfers (including Panorama Route) and two accommodations organized perfectly without any glitch. We were grateful for their attentions to details and reliable service, and for the memorable safari experience.

A half-day to spot four of the big fives!
We had a great day with David, who allowed us to see four of the big fives in Nairobi National Park in just a half day. This park surprised us in a very good way, as we saw a lot of different animals, including rhinos, leopards, lions, giraffes, impalas, hartebeest, crocodiles and so on. We would definitely recommend Kenya Tours for a safari in the park!
