Amazing Africa Safari - Arranged by PaperJet Travel
We had the most amazing safari at Ngala Private Game Reserve. Jason at Paperjet made the entire process simple and we were completely satisfied with the reservation and booking process as well as the actual safari. We had a group of 9 people who all had to pay separately and Jason worked with us to collect all the appropriate patron information and payment. It could not have been easier.
I can't say enough good things about Ngala Private Game Reserve. From the moment we arrived to the point of departure, everything was taken care of and of the highest quality. Well worth the cost.

This was the most unreal experience. My expectations were high-but were far surpassed.
The first day we were with Sam and felt like we saw everything the African wild had to offer..... Not so fast! The following day we rode with Twaha and got to see 2 mother lions and 7 cubs make a kill (sounds gruesome but was absolutely amazing). I felt safe the entire time and the guides always acted like we were the first group they'd ever taken out. They were kind and enthusiastic and worked well with the other guides in the park to make sure we didn't miss a thing!! If you are considering safari GO WITH THEM!! You won't be disappointed!

Awesome Kruger Safari Trip
This outing was awesome. You went out for a morning and afternoon tour. The drivers do their very best to have you see as many animals as possible. It was a really amazing experience.

Another Fabulous Trip!
I regularly take mission teams to Uganda and we love to end our visit with a trip to Murchison Falls National Park booked through Wild Jungle Trails. It's always a great time and this trip was no different. Twaha and Ismail took great care of us from the time they picked us up in Kampala until they delivered us back two days later. In between, we took two game drives and the boat ride to the base of the falls; we ended the trip with a drive to the top of the falls. Along the way, we saw some amazing animals - elephants, giraffes, lions, hyenas, hippos, and two leopards. Thanks Wild Jungle Trails for giving us more great memories!!

Unfriendly and unprofessional people : very bad communication and they are just a reseller.
While the content of the safari (4 days/3 nights) was good, as for the driver and for the accommodations and food, I want to make following remarks :
-Lobo Safaris (part of Vimic group) does not organize itself the safari. The safari itself was done by Sandland Tours
-The start was disastrous : (day before start of the safari) :
- There were 2 different taxidrivers waiting for us at the airport of Arusha !!!
- We were dropped in an hotel outside Arusha (Mercury hotel) in the middle of local habitations and no decent road, and in front of a local discotheque (noise at night) !
- While the driver told us that Lobo safaris would contact us the same afternoon, we didn’t hear anything from them until the morning after. Meaning we spent an whole afternoon, waiting in a desolate hotel (there was only another African couple as client of the hotel).
- Also the payment was not what we expected : we had to pay cash, while Lobo and Vimic group advertise that they accept credit cards.
-The safari itself was good. Good driver/guide : Simon and good accomodation. The program was not followed but this was not a problem (Tarangire in place of Lake Manyara). Only the vehicle was in bad condition (old vehicle from 1996 : front lights not working, no hand brake, starter not always working and a lot of dust entering the cabin)
-The end of the safari was also not really good : the door of the luggage compartiment could no more open (after one of the two spare tires break off the car ….)
-The transfer to Moshi was OK but the hotel in Moshi was not up of the quality of the accommodations during the safari (hotel Kinodroko)

Our third and best safari
Alym was attentive from the beginning. We had a specific itinerary and he totally worked with that. It was great that he is from Kenya, so he knew all about the places we wanted to visit, and it helped that he was based in Canada so we were in the same time zone and communication by phone was easy. Everything went smoothly on the safari and we had a fantastic guide.

Accommodation was good except for a leak in the toilet seat in Cottage 5 of Lower Thendele.
The trails are interesting, but I think they are too long before they reach the ultimate challenge such as climbing the rocks with the assistance of a ladder (the Tugela Gorge route).

Very Convinient and comfortable
Visited Kruger from 9th-11th Feb. Right from the pick up from Jo'burg airport to drop off at Skukuza airport later, everything went as described and was very comfortable and convinient. The entire process was smooth and there was no difficulty in anything.

Trip to Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara
Very well organized trip. George gave us all the help we needed ahead of time; Ruben was an excellent host on our first day. Finally, Ken was a great driver/guide; very knowledgeable and helpful! He was determined to show us the "big 5"....and by God he did! In addition, we saw a lot of fantastic birds and animals (including a baby white rhino).
The facilities we stayed in were also great; overall, a great experience.

Wonderful!!!

We arrived on a cruise and arranged Tim Brown Tours to pick us up for our stops in Durban and Richards Bay. We visited Hluhluwe and Tala Game Reserves on two consecutive days. Our guide, Themba, was an expert on both parks and made sure we saw all the animals. Plus he is a real gentleman, and it was great to spend the days with him. The car was modern, air conditioned, and immaculate. I really enjoyed these visits!
