Our trip to Mahale with Gombe Track went off flawlessly.
Joshua was prompt responding to any questions and flexible with our requirements. Our trip logistics were complex in an area with little tourist infrastructure. Every step was perfectly executed. The guides and other support staff were very knowledgeable and had good language skills. I highly recommend their services.

Fabulous company, everything you could hope for and more.
We booked a 15 day trip to Rwanda, Uganda and Democratic Republic of Congo with Zozo Safaris. We approached them,via email more than a year before we wanted to travel and they responded quickly, answering our numerous questions and queries, every time.
Zozo Safaris were totally committed on making sure that our trip was what we wanted it to be,they listened to our requests and went out of their way to make sure we were happy.
Two weeks before out trip,2 tourists were kidnapped in Virunga National Park and the authorities closed the Park until they could be sure of visitors safety . This was totally out of Zozo Safaris control, but Rosette, Zozo Travel Consultant, quickly tweaked the itinerary and once we approved it, secured Gorilla Permits in Uganda to make sure we could still visit the Gorillas ( main purpose of out trip).
While we were on the trip, we felt totally safe in the care of Salim, the driver and Egide the guide, who were both friendly and knowledgeable and were happy to facilitate frequent stops for us to take pictures, often suggesting the perfect place to do so.
We were flattered to meet Elie, Zozo Safaris boss, who had taken time out to meet us and personally guide us around Gisengi. We later discovered that he had personally traveled to Uganda from Rwanda to secure the Gorilla Permits, a testimony to his commitment to customer service.
We highly recommend Zozo Safaris for a personalised, quality tailor made trip at a competitive price and look forward to traveling with them in the future.

Fantastic safari tour
The safari was fantastic - I ended up with a 10 day safari which included Manyara, Tarangire, Lake Eyasi, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater! From the beginning where I contacted Romeo, he was very helpful to help me put together an itinerary that suited my needs and responded quickly.
The guide, Amos, and cook, Vincent, were also great throughout the entire trip. Amos was fantastic at spotting animals from a mile away, even though it would take me a good few minutes to finally locate what he was looking at! He was also incredibly knowledgeable on all the wildlife, and details on why animals acted one way or the other. In addition to seeing all the animals, he also knowledgeably pointed out so many different birds and their names spot-on. Would highly recommend Amos as a guide!
Vincent, our cook, also made great meals and was always in great spirits. He always asked us if the meals were sufficient and if we had enough lunch to eat for our packed boxes. Would definitely also recommend Vincent!
Overall, had a great experience with Safari Multiways and would recommend the company as a whole!

PERFECT TRIP
After spending a long time searching through a variety companies for our family trip, we settled on Routes Kilimanjaro Adventures. A large reason to this was the helpfulness of Stella who was very quick to respond to our queries and plan safari so that it perfectly suited our requirements. From the initial planning stage, we felt like we were in safe hands.
We were collected at the airport by our driver and guide for the week, Nelson. He made the safari so special for my family and my self and his knowledge was incredible. He almost had a sixth sense where he could spot animals that we would never have noticed them, but Nelson did. He was very excited to see them and said it was exceptionally rare to spot a Leopard with the cubs running in the open. We sat and had our lunch with him every day and was great to find out about him and see how passionate he is about his job.
Our family trip was perfect and was thanks to the hard work of Routes Kilimanjaro team. There are many of tour agencies in Tanzania but we are so happy that we went with Routes Kilimanjaro Adventure.

All our conversations were positive, timely and got us the trip of our lives in the Okavango Delta.
All communications were quick and positive. The service was wonderful. The trip was even better than we hoped for. Our Safari was 9 days camping in the bush with Letaka Safaris with just our guide, butler, waiter and cook. The drives were long and we saw so much including, wild dogs, Rhino, Ground Hornbills, six species of Hornbills, Black Bellied Bustards, Kori Bustard, Lions eating an Elephant that they killed. We have good photos of over 100 birds (almost all new to us). We wanted to see birds so we had a private guide KB who was a bird expert and could even mimic all their calls. We of course saw the big animals also. The trip was absolutly fantastic.
Gertrude of Falcon Safaris arranged all flights into Maun and out of Kasane, our 1 night stay in Maun, our transfers, the Letaka Safari 11 day safari, and a very special stay at Chobe Marina Lodge for our last 2 nights in Botswana, and also at a better price than our attempts to book direct. We highly recommend Falcon Safaris for bookings, and Letaka Safaris for the camping safari in the Okavango Delta in the areas of Xanaka, Khwai River, Savuti and Chobe.
Responsive, Helpful and personal.
Beads Safaris Collection is always our number 1 choice given their responsiveness to queries. They take time to understand what kind of an experience you are seeking. I appreciate their patience and how they seek feedback even way after your vacation. Great job good people!

Wildlife Safari
From booking to go on safari, the staff was very easy to work with and was able to customize our trip, giving us everything that we requested. We researched many companies and found that Routes Kilimanjaro was very reasonably priced for what they delivered. Our guide, couldn't have been better. We told him we wanted to see as much as we could, so he made sure the safari day lasted from sunrise to sunset. He was extremely knowledgeable about all of the animals, plants, and birds found in the parks. He had an amazing ability to spot and identify animals, even from long distances away. Our guide was interested in photography, finding perfect spots to take pictures. We would travel with Routes Kilimanjaro again and ask for Emmanuel as our guide.

Faith Kimani from EAV was excellent throughout all phases of our Safari experience!
Our experience with EAV went beyond our expectations. Faith worked tirelessly with our group of five from start to finish -- always communicating in a timely manner, answering our many questions, and making adjustments to meet our needs. As a result, our customized itinerary was well-designed & executed throughout our ten-day Safari.
Our guide, Sylvester, is the best! He is knowledgeable about the wildlife, patient, a fabulous driver, & took us off the beaten path at times for more viewing adventures. We always felt safe, secure and well cared for.
All of our lodgings were comfortable and set among beautiful landscapes. Each was unique in its own way, and the hospitality at each was excellent.
We have come away with many meaningful and enduring impressions & memories of our first visit to Tanzania -- thanks to EAV. We will recommend them to our friends and family without hesitation!

Come and see life at its best!!
I have traveled twice with Kanyezi African Safaris. I loved it so much the first time that I brought along a friend for my second trip. I recommend Kanyezi unequivocally with the highest rating possible. The trips exceeded my expectations - and the second was even better than the first.
Both times I traveled late May / early June which was the perfect time (fall) for weather and absence of bugs. But next time I may try spring instead.
Chris and Michael, the owners of Kanyezi, are perfect hosts and know how to put together the best tours of South Africa. From their personal greeting at the airport upon arrival to the departure they make everything a luxury and an adventure.
Some people said they felt weird about wiring the money early on, but it's absolutely safe and worth every penny! I don't know how they provide such luxurious business-class travel and wonderful accommodations at such a reasonable price point, but they know their business well and have been doing this a long time. Their experience pays off for their guests, making the whole trip a dream come true.
The accommodations are extravagantly luxurious. The suites are beautiful, the food is delicious and elegantly served. And the safaris are conducted in small groups (there were 6 in my group) with a dedicated ranger and tracker. Every night the ranger joined us at the sumptuous dinner, which added to the personal care and the depth of knowledge gained on the trip.
The highlight, of course, is the safaris: two drives and one walk per day. You see more than you could have imagined. Wildlife big and tiny. The ranger and tracker share their knowledge and love of the land and animals. Viewing the sunrise and sunset every day (as well as the Southern Cross in the night sky) touched some part of my soul that lies dormant most of the time.
If you have any dream of safari, you should consider Kanyezi to ensure that you have the best safari on earth.
