Life-touching Experience
We had a life-touching, unforgettable visit to the Kilimanjaro region during July, 2018. Our planning to visit Tanzania began last year when we had the pleasure of meeting Remsi while he was a Disney cultural representative at the Animal Kingdom Lodge at Disney World in Florida. Remsi's dynamic personality immediately won us over. After Remsi returned home, we decided to plan our next adventure with AfrikaKukaye. The planning of our trip through the booking process could not have been more smooth and easy. Once we arrived, I cannot overstate how well we were taken care of during our visit to Tanzania. We experienced a concierge-level treatment throughout our time in Moshi, Arusha, and the Lake Eyasi region. Our personal tour guide, Shaffi, with us for a full seven days of our adventure, made sure every detail was fulfilled, made us feel safe and secure, and provided extensive knowledge on safari and during cultural exchanges. During our time together he became a part of our family, and going forward he will always remain a friend.
We had a wonderful experience with AfrikaKukaye. From the very beginning, they had a personal touch during all of our exchanges. They are proud of their country and the cultural and natural experiences the region has to offer. As a local tour company, their knowledge of the area and their expertise in designing a trip was very evident.
We plan to return to Tanzania and climb Mount Kilimanjaro, and the only company we plan to work with is AfrikaKukaye.

Wonderfully organized to maximize the best of South Africa
I recently returned from the Sunway Safaris Rainbow Route, 17-day tour across South Africa. I have never been on an organized tour of this length and wasn't sure what to expect. As a solo traveler, I was incredibly impressed with the organization of the tour, the tour vehicle "Red Elephant," and and the expertise of the guides. Yes, there was quite a bit of time spent in the vehicle (it's great, but if you go during the winter, make sure you have layers because it can be cold in the mornings), but a lot of that time was spent during safari game drives and in order to be able to cover the ground that we did. There were a few days with really long drives, but because we left early in the morning and stopped for an activity along the way, the drives didn't feel that long. At Kruger and the other safari parks, we saw some unbelievable wildlife sights (e.g., pride of 12 lions, lions eating a recently killed buffalo, mother lion crossing water with baby, all Big 5 on two days in a row, elephant walking to water hole) due to the skill level of our guides, Phuma and Farai. Our guides were the perfect pair and complemented each other beautifully. After a few days, it felt more like a family than a tour group. We only had 4 in the group, but the limit is 12. We were also able to see fabulous marine wildlife including humpback whales, southern right whales, seals, etc. I was also incredibly impressed with the accommodations which exceeded my expectations. For the first two weeks, we were in somewhat remote locations (with the exception of Kruger), which were very peaceful. The last week when we hit the garden route, it became a bit more crowded with tourists, but was absolutely beautiful! Overall, I would highly recommend this tour and this company.

Flexible and professional service.
It seems that this tour operator focuses on customized tours for relatively small groups or individuals and has great flexibility. If your schedule is not flexible and readymade tours do not fit it or you have a specific request for activities, as I was so, this tour operator can be a good choice. The owner of the operator is very concerned about reputations from customers and you can expect flexible and fair dealing even in the case of an unscheduled event, which can very often happen in Africa. It would be better off informing them of your requests and asking information as much as possible to reduce a risk of miscommunication, which tends to happen in customized tours.

Absolutely amazing Kilimanjaro and safari by Zohar African Safaris
Lilian from Zohar provided our group of 7 friends from Canada with an amazing experience in Tanzania! First the Kilimanjaro climb - with our head guide Isaa, we had an absolutely fantastic team supporting us and we all summitted! This team of hard working guys will hold a place in our hearts forever! After our 8 day adventure on the mountain, we were off on safari to Tarangire National Park, Manyanara National Park, and the Serengeti. We had 2 vehicles for 7 of us along with our excellent guides Adam and Nixon. Seeing all the African wildlife up close was just amazing! Accommodations on the safari were always interesting and beautiful and the food on both the mountain and safari was delicious and plentiful.
Lilian provided us with an unforgettable experience in her beautiful Tanzania! She went above and beyond and I will be forever thankful!
