The operator was superb
4/5

I really enjoyed my trip.It was my birthday so it was a blast.Travelling was okay but next time I will opt the package that includes flights to and fro.Also if you could include transportation from the airport/train station to the hotel and also back to the airport/train station it would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Trot are unique in a crowded field. Amazing staff makes all the difference
5/5

Trot definitely set themselves apart from the competition. Amazing staff (Lewis, Ben and Onesgo) went way beyond to make our group's trip unforgettable. The family style meals are a very nice touch and allow you to unwind after long game drives. I went as a solo traveler and got lucky with my group, we had a full car so never got split up and spent the whole time laughing and/or singing the Lion King soundtrack. Also got lucky with the animal sightings and only missed a Leopard. This was during 1st week of August so deep into dry season when most animals move north. We only got as far as central Serengeti but would def recommend doing multiple nights so you can get all the way north (ie river crossing and lake Nacron). Regardless of what tour you choose, you can't go wrong with Hilary and Trot's team.

Best experience!!
5/5

We booked a 15 day guided tour with our guide Moses through Gorilla Bookings in July 2021 and were absolutely thrilled! We booked directly with Gorilla Bookings. The agency is completely trustworthy and the organization of the tour, safaris, boat trips and trekkings was excellent. All accommodations were beautiful and Moses brought us closer to culture, country and people and also spent a lot of time with us after work.

We made friends in no time and felt very comfortable. The national parks and the great nature and wildlife are absolutely worth seeing. An unscheduled visit to an orphanage (at our own request) made our trip perfect and opened our hearts and eyes.

We would love to come back!

Amazing experience, and a team that had our backs every step of the way
5/5

This was a trip of a lifetime, wow. Myself and my parents joined Right Choice Safaris for 15 days through Kenya and Tanzania, and the experience was beyond words… amazing amazing amazing. Before the trip, George was fantastic at alleviating all of our concerns, answering every question, and adjusting the itinerary to meet our wants/needs. This was especially impressive given the need to navigate visa AND covid testing requirements for two different countries. Once we arrived in Kenya, they had our backs with every step and made sure we didn’t have to lift a finger to organize anything. Everything was done for us and ran smoothly and beautifully. Our guides, Jacob in Kenya and Simon in Tanzania, were both phenomenal! They blew us away with their kindness, knowledge, flexibility, humor, and expertise. The wildlife, the destinations, the accommodations, the food… this trip is a much do. Thank you so much George, Jacob, Simon, and team!

Extremely responsible and highly experienced guide; amazing cooperation with the operator
5/5

Hello, dear travelers,

I’d like to share with you my extraordinary travel experience in Namibia with Okutembuka Safaris.

Surfing the Internet, looking for the best itinerary Joan and I found out the website of Okutembuka Safaris https://www.okutembuka.com/ Despite of the website has a plenty of ready-to-go trips over Namibia we have chosen our own route, created according to all our preferences. Our priorities were visiting the bushmen, the Dunes, Swakompund and Cape cross with a seal colony, Damaraland with visiting Himba tribe, Etosha National park. We chose ourselves some of the hotels and lodges, but the major part were the lodges that Okutembuka safaris recommended us. When we visited them, we were astonished by the hospitality and the high level of service at the lodges. Romy added some more nearby sights to our trip. With the great cooperation of Romy and her briefing on the current situation in the country during the COVID-19, we booked a 3 weeks Fully Guided Safari, which started in Windhoek on the 11 of June 2021.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU TO GO ON A FULLY GUIDED SAFARI, cause if you do self-driving safari, you can be faced with some unpleasant situations that aren’t easy to cope with. During our 21 day trip we punctured the tyre of the car twice cause most of the driving was off-road, our guide Rudolf took care of this issue. Later in Etosha National park during safari which was arranged by the lodge we stayed at, Rudolf noticed that the elephant, we had been looking at, was about to attack us and told a driver to start the car. Many thanks to our guide Rudolf, that we escaped from the furious elephant and avoided being smashed.

I’d like to admit that Joan and I were extremely lucky being guided by Rudolf, cause his responsibility and experience in Namibian wild life and nature won us an incredibly unique and educational trip over the country. Rudolf’s knowledge and sense of humour brought us a lot of bright moments. Our guide spoke both Afrikaans and German languages, that made our life in Namibia much easier. Rudolf found for us the best local guides to visit the bushmen village and the bushman paintings, we enjoyed a lot.

Traveling with Rudolf felt like to travel with the family. Okutembuka Safaris, thank you for all the unforgettable experiences and souvenirs.

Very good tour operator, best experience and very warm team.
5/5

My first Safari ever was with Fahamu Safaris. I had an excellent experience here. Everything went very smoothly. We visited the three national parks. It was a five days tour where your own input was always possible. The team was super friendly, helpful and they knew a lot to tell. Very educational. We loved every moment and would recommend anyone to book with Fahamu tours! Also the price to quality ratio was very good!

E-Trip provided great communication through the planning of the safari, including completely changing the dates when Kenya had an unexpected lockdown. The guides were always on time, courteous, and knowledgeable. We enjoyed our safari.

Award tours is customer minded; considers carefully the needs of the client and goes out of the way to ensure that the traveler is fully satisfied and comfortable. Award tours takes time to go out to examine facilities before sending the traveler.

A remarkable, enlightening, and amazing experience that I will never forget!
5/5

My experience with Lion King Adventures was truly a life changing experience. When my family first booked, communication with the owner, Pendo, was effective and highly efficient. Any time we had questions regarding payment, lodging, concerns, or any other pertinent information, she was enthusiastically prepared to assist us.

Upon arrival, our tour guides, Salehe and Gilbert, greeted us with welcoming arms. During our entire safari journey, they truly made us feel like family and took care of us beyond our expectations. From introducing us to Swahili greetings, informing us on all the animals in the safari and their habits, making sure we were comfortable and secure with lodging, and not to mention the Jeep rides and plethora of pictures taken, I highly recommend Lion King Adventures to everyone traveling to Tanzania to experience life in the Tarangire, Ngorongro, Serengeti, and Lake Manyara National Parks. You will not regret it! It was truly bittersweet departing from Salehe, Gilbert, and the entire Lion King Adventure family because once again, we all became family.
