Great safari company!
We had a great time on safari through Shemeji! From planning to to actual trip, it was very well organized and we never felt rushed. Emma was very quick to respond on scheduling and planning before the trip. Very helpful in all the documentation needed to enter Tanzania. Our guide (Adson) and our chef (Godson) were awesome as well. We did end up seeing the Big 5 on the last day of our safari thanks to our guide Adson and his great eyes! Going to Zanzibar was a great way to relax and cap off the trip. It was beautiful and all the locals were very friendly. If you're looking to go on a safari, I would definitely recommend going through Shemeji.

Wonderful vacation and service.
We loved our Africa vacation. Despite the airline schedule changes involved the whole itinerary went smoothly thanks to our travel consultant Matthys Van Aswegan who monitored our connections so we could fully enjoy each destination. Our Sabi Sands Game Reserve Safari and Victoria Falls visit was breathtaking and mesmerizing. Each lodge was over the top with a wonderful staff. Hopefully, someday, we will be able to return!

Darren and Kate are extreme thorough and thoughtful as they help you plan your adventure
Overall, Sarah and I had an incredible time on our safari. Traveling right now is not easy to say the least, but I assure you that you are in good hands with Compass Odyssey. From the day we arrived, to the day we left everything went smoothly. Compass even went as far as to arrange a place for us to rest after our international flight as we waited to start our adventure. As complicated as traveling can be right with testing, all of this went smoothly and was pre-booked to reduce stress and concern. I would highly recommend using Compass Odyssey for your safari needs.

If it's a tour in Tanzania, then Lion King Adventures is who you should choose!
Lion King Adventures were absolutely amazing right from the beginning. Prompt communication, keeping the client's needs in mind, flexible with plans, courteous, helpful, and everything else one would ask for in a service provider. They planned every little detail of our trip, were patient with all our requests and made adjustments to meet all our requirements. The hotels they organised and the guide they gave us were both extraordinary. The guide, Richard, was truly the most extraordinary part of our trip. He made our safari experiences absolutely out of this world. Our 11 year old son will forever treat Richard like a friend and family because that is how Richard is. Friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and very persistent. He makes every effort to fulfill the client's request. We were able to see a mother cheetah and her cub get their kill and enjoying it, leopards climbing trees, lots of lion prides, innumerable giraffes, zebras, and so many other animals. We were truly blessed to have Richard who helped us see, and enjoy the Great Migration. Thank you so much Lion King Adventures.

Outstanding, worldclass customer service, responsive, knowledgeable guide, exceeded expectations
Nature Travel Namibia is a world-class tour operator that provided excellent value for the money spent. Nicolette Muller, our tour organizer and coordinator was excellent and responsive. While in the USA I got responses within time zone differences, while in Namibia, responses were in real-time, and believe me you will need real-time support when your airline changes flights at apparently random times when you do not have Internet access or things happen beyond your control (provide your booking login details including passwords to Nicolette). Nicolette's response was the main reason for deciding to select Nature Travel Namibia, but it just got better from there. My guide and driver Marc Cronje was outstanding; he was friendly, very knowledgeable, and flexible; the hours spent in the car with Marc were filled with interesting discussions and an informal discourse on birds (by the way Namibia has some amazing birds). The tour was customized for me as a single traveler, another feather in Nature Travel Namibia's cap (in fact it is a group of companies that does bird watching - Nature Travel Birding, NT Kruger, NT Africa, etc.). One of my requirements was to visit dark sky locations, since Namibia has one of the darkest night skies in the world; consequently, the first several nights were catered to dark sky and Southern Milkyway viewing in Keetmanshoop, Sossuss Dune Lodge, and Star Dune Camp. I was told that Nicolette has personally visited the lodges she recommends, which is a huge plus. The accommodations (I chose mid-range) as chosen by Nicolette were outstanding. I spent 16 days in Namibia, and this was my second trip to African in two decades, and I was totally blown away by the experience and the efficiency of the tour operator. In summary if you are looking for a tour operator to visit Namibia (or Kruger in South Africa, or for birdwatching anywhere in the world), without reservations I highly recommend Nature Travel Namibia or the Nature Travel Group of companies. I did go in time of the COVID situation, and though Namibia is on the USA travel.gov "do not travel list", it is safer than many cities in the USA; all individuals everywhere in Namibia use masks and hand sanitizers and the population density is much lower than any of the major metros in USA. As a final disclaimer: I was neither paid nor coerced into writing this review, and the words are all my own. Hope you enjoy your upcoming trip wherever it may take you. Cheers!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
I really appreciated my travel agent - very specific Maureen Njuguini
She was very patient with me, gave me the appropriate information,
She organized everything at hemmingways watamu.
From requested early check in , because my flight was early, to checking up on me on how the vacation is
The transfers were on time and there was no hidden costs
Thank you Bonfire and especially Maureen for the baby girl experience
She understood the assignment

Affordable, reliable, and efficient
We did the two-day safari to Tarangire and Ngorongoro after our Kilimanjaro trek. Jackson organized a transport from Moshi very easily, with a great driver. Jackson communicated quickly and clearly throughout the process. Since it was only two of us, we were able to join a public tour where we met many kind people with knowledgeable tour guides. The tour was much less than the more available private options, and the safari was exactly same, if not better. If I were to return to Tanzania for a longer safari, I would undoubtedly use Topy Tours.

Couldn't get any better- first safari experience
This was my first safari experience and Native Africa team gave their best to make it an unforgettable trip! David was an amazing tour guide and he made sure every day was filled with amazing wildlife sightings.
We were vegetarians and the food arrangement was also great. I'll do the photos do the talking
