An experience of a lifetime!
I went on Wild Dog Safaris 23 day tour (a combination of the 7 day north, 7 day south and 9 day delta and falls) and I had the most amazing time from start to finish! It was my first time visiting Namibia (and Botswana and Zimbabwe) and first time properly camping. Namibia is such a beautiful country and their tours really do cover all of the highlights. All of the staff were so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much to ask. I really would recommend them to anyone and have been raving about them to all of my family and friends since I have been home!
The camping was so much better than I thought it would be. The tents are really big and all of the campsites are great! Most of them have brick built bathrooms and even the few that don’t it’s actually a really nice experience to shower under the stars (those turned out to be my favourite campsites). They are all so different and in such lovely places, most of them have swimming pools which are a god send at the end of the day! I was really pleasantly surprised with the food. I didn’t think it would be nearly as good as what it was and it’s amazing what the assistants can produce just on a campfire. I’m gluten free and all of the assistants I had always made a conscious effort to make sure there was food that I could eat.
Despite the long drives some days, the views are amazing and you get to see so much whilst you’re driving and it is essential to fit in all that you do in such a short space of time. All of the guides are great at making sure you stop off to stretch your legs, take pictures and buy cold drinks, etc.
There were so many highlights that I will never forget; the waterhole at Okaukuejo waterhole, Victoria Falls, bungee jumping!, Etosha, sunsets/sunrises (everywhere!), Fish River Canyon, Kolmanskop, Sossusvlei .. so many wow moments, the list is endless.
The whole experience really is what you make it. Go in with an open mind and you’re bound to have the best time! Thank you Wild Dog for giving me an experience I will never forget!

We were very happy
Fransisca was really reactive and fast to reply each time we had a question preparing our trip.
She welcomed you upon arrival and even offered us a present each. She is a really genuine person :-)
Our driver and guide was really friendly and knew many things about Tanzania and all the animals. He spoke really good French which was really good for us.
Everything was well organized and well taken care of.
Hotels were very nice, everybody was friendly, the food was good (the only thing would be to have better lunch boxes).
We would definitely choose Nature responsible again if we ever go back.
Thanks for everything

Perfect safari experience
This year it was time for my first safari. After quit a lot of research we chose Makasa for our safari (Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire) - the communication with Selma was super easy and uncomplicated from the very beginning. It was especially nice to meet the whole family during our trip.
Our guide, Frank was absolutely great: he knows everything there is to know about nature and wildlife and made sure that every day was a highlight! He is also a great and safe driver and we just really enjoyed our time with him.
Our lodges and camps as well as the food were excellent throughout the whole safari. Nothing to complain about here
To sum up; I can highly recommend taking safaris with Makasa. They are super professional and great people!

Helpful, informative, efficient and well organised
When you start to look for a tour operator on line you are always taking a bit of a risk so often rely on reviews and the interaction with the company/staff. I was looking for a few days at Kruger after a business trip and the people at Kruger Park Travel couldn't have been more helpful. Mike Swart was happy to answer as many questions as I asked him and Kylie Haslam was very efficient with the paperwork and also responding very quickly to my emails - even a few hours before I was due to land in J'burg. I stayed at the Outlook Lodge where the host Francois was welcoming and entertaining. Everything ran smoothly - picked up, dropped off, things explained, trips provided, all as they said. I was travelling solo and was with a mixed group of couples and solos and we all met up at meals and took the trips together or mixed with other groups so you were always included. I would happily book again with Kruger Park Travel.

Would definitely recommend this trip to Pilanesburg national park
This is a great safari to get to see a lot of African wildlife in a natural habitat. Willem was very knowledgeable and we spent a very enjoyable 12 hours in his company. Lunch was also above average for a tour. Basically, - a top day out exploring African wildlife.

Amazing Adventure
This was my first safari in Africa and it was very memorable. The accommodations were very comfortable and there was even a bathroom with hot water right inside the tent. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. My friend got sick one day and they checked in on him during the day and made him a special lunch. The driver was informative and diligent in his search for the animals. Because of his efforts we were able to see the big five and much more! We were dropped off at the airport with time to catch our flight. All in all a great trip!

Great value and great stuff
We had good luck through the teviews before choosing our budget safari and chose Killiholidays and i think we were very lucky in our choice.
The money exchange at first seemed a problem because there was no paypal or credit cards but we trusted them and in the end everything was fine, Mack was quite relaxed and we had to trust him.
This is a safari that really puts you in touch with the people and the Selous, the driving looked daunting but the landcruiser was fine and our driver Tumsufi was excellent,he really looked out for us and could,nt do enough.
Driving through the landscape you really get a sense of the place and where you are heading.
I would not hesitate to do this again with Killiholidays all their staff Moses, Mack and Tumsufi have the best intentions in making sure you have a fantastic time.
In only one day we saw so much, lions,giraffes, elephants,hyenas,warthogs and hippos our only regret is we didn,t book for longer.

Very Good Safari
We had a very good experience with this agency and the safari. We went to Masai Mara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Very beautiful. We truly recommend the agency and the safari. Very good staff and Noah (the owner) is always ready to help. Go for it!
