Zanzibar + safari Tarangire, Ngorongoro and lake Manyara for family with three generations
Benson did great job on all sides of the arrangement, and more than lived up to our high expectations. He cooperates With Tahib at Zanzibar. Tahib is a really friendly and knowledgable guide. Tembo hotel and Amaan bungalows can both be recommended for accomodation. To arrange safari for three generations with age ranging from 9 to 75 could be challenging, but everything was well planned to please both children and adults. Safari itself was really nice, we saw lots of animals, and Peter was an excellent guide and driver, but it might be good to choose a time of the year witch is not as dry and dusty.

Gail took onboard all our requests and carried them out beyond our expectations.
From leaving Brisbane airport, all throughout our African adventure and then touching back down in Australia, Gail constantly supported and communicated with us. We missed our first outbound connecting flight, but Gail was following our flights and organised onward flights for us. Gail met with us to discuss our itenery and we felt assured and comfortable that she would prepare an excellent trip for us. It wasn't until we were actually experiencing all her detailed planning, we realised our expectations were being exceeded constantly. She was a great listener and we seemed to be on the same page with all we wished for. On arriving back into Sydney, some of our luggage was missing, so again Gail went above the beyond tracking the luggage down and eventually had it delivered to our door! We cannot recommend Gail highly enough if you are looking for an extremely experienced, professional Travel Agent to organise an unforgettable travel experience for you.

Unforgettable experience and outstanding service!!
I did 7 days safari with Meru Slopes and I could not recommend them enough! Clear and prompt communication answering all the questions I had, very patient and not pushy to book with them.
The safari was impeccable from the beginning to the end - I was picked from the airport, welcomed and immediately checked in the hotel, start of the safari on the next day with both our driver and cook very professional and easy going. We were lucky to see the big 5 and also wildebeests migration.
They delivered on everything agreed and beyond! The safari was my personal treat for my birthday and Meru Slopes surprised me very pleasantly by organising double surprise - first one by the cook early in the morning whilst we were still in Ngorongoro crater and another one later on when we got back in the hotel. They had made a beautiful and tasty birthday cake, gave me presents and the whole Meru Slopes team sang "Happy Birthday" to me!
Thank you ever so much Geofrey and everyone from Meru Slopes team for the unforgettable experience!
Book with confidence. You will not be disappointed!
Asante sana marafiki!

Fantastic Safari in Central Serengeti
My husband and I are independent travelers having gone to Africa three times previously. We used Good Earth Tours for a Central Serengeti Safari and were very pleased with our choice. I communicated with Baraka for several months before our trip and found his replies to be fast and helpful. He even helped us arrange delivery of a suitcase of donations to Huruma Care Development in Arusha. Our guide Joseph was great at finding animal sightings, we even watched two lions take down a zebra! This whole outfit is tightly run. The local airline had a glitch with our reservation even though we had all the paperwork and Joseph had it straightened out before we barely knew there was a problem, actually got us on a plane immediately instead of the longer wait we should have had. I said to my husband, look how quick Joseph did that, I might have been looking for a sympathetic person for quite some time had I been alone.

Fantastic Canoe Safari - Mana Pools to Chewore
Our experience with Natureways safaris began with our overnight stay at Hornbill Lodge in Kariba. The welcome, service, food and accommodation were all exemplary and set us up well for the long road journey to Mana Pools and the start of the canoe safari. We were treated to a buffet lunch before we set off and while we were eating the joker in our group said "Guys, I don't want to worry you but there's an elephant behind you!". When he became more insistent we turned around to see an elephant walking towards our vehicle. An amazing start to an amazing trip on the river. The first leg of our journey involved a large number of changes of direction to avoid the numerous hippo we encountered before we made our first overnight stop. This was repeated each day with the hippo without doubt the most numerous of the animals we saw, always of course from a comfortable distance!
On our first morning we were greeted by the sight of buffalo and elephant in the distance to accompany the hippos grunting in the river. A quick coffee and biscuits set us on our way with the promise of more substantial sustenance when we stopped for lunch, shade and rest. This was the pattern for each of the following days.
We saw an amazing array of birdlife which was probably the surprise of the trip and we weren't disappointed with the bigger game either. We managed to get great photo opportunities from our canoes as well during our stops. There seemed to be ever-present yellow-billed Kites in attendance looking for the chance to pick up left-overs.
Despite having a slight headwind on a couple of mornings we didn't find the journey too strenuous and would imagine many people could undertake this trip.
Finally, our two guides TK and Manu looked after us perfectly, from their careful navigation of the potential dangers on the river to their culinary expertise and their knowledge of the wildlife and eco-system. We never imagined we'd eat as well as we did.
Our journey was over all too soon but has left us with indelible memories of a brilliant holiday touring Zimbabwe. Hope to be back again!

Tailormade Africa organised and delivered on an excellent itinerary for my holiday
My trip to South Africa came from an unplanned bid in a charity auction for Street Child of which Rob from Tailormade Africa had generously donated 3 nights stay in Cape Town!
We also relied on his knowledge and expertise in arranging the rest of our 2 week holiday along the Garden route. Everything was well organised, the route and locations were what we were looking for and needed.
I would definitely recommend and use again!
