Perfect Safari Trip
We used Nhlalala Travels to plan our time in and around Krugger and we honestly couldn’t fault them.
Their communication, customer care, information and excellent organisation make them a very easy recommendation.
To top it off they truly care about booking you the best trip possible on any budget.
Norman who was our main point of contact helped us shape the trip to exactly what we wanted. Communication and information was excellent throughout. Our driver Lucky who took us from Johannesburg to Krugger via the Panama Route was very knowledgeable on nature and history keeping up informed and engaged for the long trip. He was there throughout our time in Kruger helping us be where needed to be. Jerry our safari guide was also amazing, his knowledge and passion for Krugger was clear and made the safari even more special. His relentless pursuit of seeing all the animals including the big 5 is exactly what you want in a guide! We say the big 5 except and Leopard but did see Wild Dogs and Cheetahs which was simply amazing and not possible without Jerry.
We spent 2 weeks in South Africa on a self planned trip but using Nhlalala for the time in Kruger turned out to be a must do, so I would highly recommend getting in touch to discuss and plan your trip.

Tall Masai Safaris knows the industry very well and is communicative.
We had a budget tour for 2 nights in Amboseli National Park that felt like a great value for money experience. Good communication, very good and fun driver. Accomodation was basic but sufficient for a budget tour.

Kilipath was incredibly flexible and went above and beyond to go be us a perfect safari experience.
Most incredible experience of my life! We did a 3 day safari and saw the Serengeti and Ngorongora Crater - we couldn’t believe the amount of animals we encountered in just 3 days! Our tour guide, Respick, was so knowledgeable on the different types of animals, also knew how to get up close to them while still feeling very safe. We saw lions, elephants, hippos, zebra, wildebeest, giraffe, and so much more! We are planning on doing another safari in the future and will make sure we book through Kilipath again. Be sure to ask for Respick, he made the experience so fun and unique! I even forgot my prescription sunglasses in the car and they went above and beyond to make sure they were returned to me. All of the accommodations were perfect and the Maasai visit was a beautiful cultural experience. Thanks again to the whole Kilipath team and our guide turned friend Respick!

Great experience touring with Africa Paradise Safari
We visited Kenya and Tanzania in August with Africa Paradise Safari in a group of 8 friends. I had an experience that exceeded my expectations. The trip was planned by an organizer of our group 5-6 months before the visit through emails with John Peter who had replied to our frequent questions patiently and was always willing to accommodate our requests. Our guide/driver Ken is very experienced and skillful in finding the best spots for viewing animals. We saw almost all animals we expected to see. The best part of the trip was being able to see wildebeest migration, having seen more than four separate river crossings in Masai Mara and Serengeti. I highly recommend touring with Africa Paradise Safari.

Serengeti Smile Rocks!
My girlfriend and I wanted a special holiday and we chose a safari. We searched many companies and wisely chose Serengeti Smile. Speaking and arranging the trip with the boss Albert was easy and once we met our guide the magic really happened. Such knowledge, driving skill and enthusiasm - he was born for this job. Well done and bravo to our Champion!
We saw everything we wanted and more. A magical experience.

Serengeti Smile rules 🙂
I spoke to Albert the owner at Serengeti Smile and he was able to arrange everything we needed without a problem . Communication with him was smooth and easy.
We did 6 days of the best safari ( + 3 days Zanzibar) ever and this was due to our guide Champion.He is full of skill, knowledge and character.
We've seen a lot of things and had a great time and fun .We couldn't ask for better guide ❤️.
This company is highly recommended and I'll choose them again

Very Very pleasantly surprised
14 wonderful days with Oreteti Tours! I, having never been in Africa or South America, was very paranoid about diseases, insects, and whatever else I had heard about. Turns out, early July in Tanzania is fabulous; 83 degrees F high each day, jacket cool each night, ZERO mosquitos, zero biting flies, amazing wildlife. I'm a bit of a birder, and Raymond (one of the drivers) had a local thick bird book (and experience) to help me ID about 55 new birds. I would recommend Joseph and Oreteti Tours without reservations... the days were long, but the accommodations were very good and we saw incredible amounts of wildlife.

Unbelievable experience
We did a 5 day safari in Tanzania (visiting Tarangire, Northern and Central Serengeti, Ngorongoro) and it was a unique experience. Our guide Semle with his experience in the field definitely helped us to catch the big 5 very quickly. The accommodations were really good, beyond our expectations. Really high standard, all the comforts and most importantly, they were clean and the food was really good. The agency also supported us in our second part of the holiday in Zanzibar and managed to book us transfers from the airport and a great hotel in Matemwe (Villa Kiva). Once again the accommodation exceeded our expectations for the view, cleanliness, service and food.
We give 4 stars instead of 5 for 2 main reasons:
1) the trip was already very expensive (yes, and we knew it!) however, tips were “mandatory” every day as stated in a document from the agency 10 € per person per day. We are always happy to help but the agency should not force customers to give mandatory tips considering the overall cost.
2) the flight to Zanzibar was booked in the late afternoon so we lost 1 day of vacation with our guide going shopping (because we had nothing to do) and then he took us to the airport 3 hours early which was more than enough. We would have preferred a morning or mid-day flight.
Overall we are very satisfied with our vacation and Savannah Explorers is a reliable provider that we highly recommend ;)
