great honeymoon with Mamuya safaris
We enjoyed our honeymoon Safari which was planned and operated very professional by Mamuya Safaris. Dany supported us with detailed information and very quick communication via email in the planning process of our Safari.
We booked a private safari and we were very satisfied with our driver Bosco, who is a very experienced guide. He organized every detail of the trip and gave us really interesting information of the nature and the animals.
We can strongly recommend Mamuya Safaris, a very professional provider and very kind assistance during planning.
Thanks for organizing such nice vacations!

Timeless Ugandan Experience
Coming from America, I wanted to have an authentic and real experience of Eastern Africa and Carol provided that. Gorilla Link Tours provided me and my friends with an amazing time at Mweya Safari Lodge and Queen Elizabeth Safari Park in Uganda. I recommend you book with Gorilla Link Tours immediately, you will not regret it! I cannot wait to go on future trips with Carol and Gorilla Link!

Not a minute of regret!
Used the opportunity of a business trip to SA to see a bit of the surroundings and the great reviews on TripAdvisor made me go along with Tim Brown tours. Not a minute of regret! Although it's a long drive for just a day, the experience was unforgettable. Amazing landscape and seeing beautiful elephants, giraffes, rhinos, buffalo, zebras, etc. even spotted a relaxing cheetah and a secretary bird couple. All compliments to guide Sibo who knows where to go and is a very pleasant and knowledgeable guy (and a good cautious driver). Will definitely be back and do a 2 or 3 day tour in future with my wife!

A holiday to be cherised
In the summer of 2016 we made in a trip to Northern Tanzania and Zanzibar. In the months before the trip we were able to organize the trip together with their staff exactly to our, rather specific, wishes. That was allready part of the fun. They did an excellent job and managed to find the location of a farm my wife's father started around 1955. They visited the place (at a really remote location!) to check it out before we arrived and made it possible for us to visit that place and meet the new owners who showed us around. This was very special for us but the rest of the trip was equally well-organised. We camped in Arusha NP (the best start possible, walking safari's, wonderfull scenery at the campsite and very relaxed), near Monduli, Tarangire NP, tribes near Lake Eyasi, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. Our driver drove very safely and had a tremendous knowledge of wildlife. We as biologists must have challenged him really though but we were completely satisfied. And he was a really nice person as a company which is also very important if you are so close together in a car for weeks. He became a lifetime friend. The cook also was very important for the trip. We were always very hungry before the meals and satisfied smiling afterwards. He certainly deserves a Michelin star for his avocado salad if we may only mention one dish. Real Tanzanian delicious food. And superfresh, we had no problems with our stomachs or other inconveniences. We saw far too much wildlife to mention it here, but a group of elephants chasing away more than a dozen lions, the crossing of the river Mara by wildebeasts and zebras and the animals walking around the campsites during breakfast were certainly experiences we'll remember the rest of our lives.
After the safari we stayed on Zanzibar. Relaxing at the beach and visiting Stonetown and Chumbe island.
We highly recommend African Wildcats to organise your safari. We think you won't be disappointed.

Amazing experience
It was a real pleasure to visit the Hluhluwe Umfolozi Game Reserve with Tim Brown Tour. Professional and cheerful guide and driver talked about the history of Zululand , Reserve and animals living there. He looked for the animals hidden in the bush. We saw the big 5 wild dogs and wild boar. Hluhluwe Umfolozi Game Reserve is one of the most beautiful places I've seen. I' ll certainly return to Reserve. Highly recommend the tour with Tim Brown Tour. If we go back to South Africa we will definitely take advantage of his offer.

"Every Day is the Best Day" - Outstanding Planning, Service and Personnel
When looking for a safari it is hard to know which company to choose. We were in communication with many potential companies, but what set RAS apart was their timeliness in response and English communication skills. Other companies took 2 weeks to respond to us where RAS (Amelia) was responding same day and often times the same hour. Furthermore, they didn't just stop booking with the safari, but they helped plan the other part of our trip as well. We had other questions (riding elephants, diving with sharks, hotels in Cape Town & Johannesburg) they either referred or set up for us helping take much of the planning/booking and stress off our plate. Even if there was something we wanted to do that we hadn't thought of (shark diving), our guide Jaco called Amelia and the next thing we knew, it was part of our itinerary. The service was second to none.
As for the safari, we did a 5 day tour on the panorama route. Our guide Jaco was highly knowledgeable with regards to all animals, nature and landmarks/stop offs along the way as well as highly interactive with us. We did the group rides at camps, but the best part of the trip was our time spent riding in the safari van with Jaco as he knew and explained more than we were hearing when going out on group trips from base camps (day, night and bush walk guided tours). That is not to say that the camp trips were not great, but sometimes they lacked or failed to share deeper knowledge about the animals and the territory. Furthermore, Jaco cooked for us each night with many options. While riding in the park I found myself wondering what a kudu or impala might taste like… not to worry, most likely you were going to get to try one of the game meats at night which only added to the experience. During our trip it rained 3 of the days we were in Kruger National Park, but we still managed to see the Big 5! Much of that is due to the fact that Jaco was readily available and willing to take us out to continue to look for animals even after we did the guided group tours. Jaco did not want us to leave without getting the entire experience and bang for our buck. I remember seeing 3 leopards in one day and we were all excited and I asked Jaco what was the best day he ever had in Kruger and he said "As a guide in this park, every day is the best day" and even after 3 days in the pouring rain I can honestly see why he thinks that! Needless to say at this point if you read this far, RAS can do it all and you will most likely leave making an additional friend in your tour guide along the way!

The absolute perfect way to explore the great parks/reserves of Tanzania!
Our experience with Benson was impeccable. He was direct and prompt in answering all of our questions via email, booking and payment was effortless, and the organization and follow-through was outstanding. You will not be disappointed in a trip organized by them.
Our guide for the 5 days, Jeff, was fantastic. His English was clear and great, he accurately sensed our moods of when we wanted to hear a lot of information versus when we would just appreciate the quiet time to observe. We really appreciated his excellent driving skills and regards for safety and security. You could also tell that he advocated on our behalf with any of the interactions that were in Swahili.
The accommodations that we stayed in were incredible, especially Kubu Kubu Tented Camp (best shower, EVER). Everything was clean, cared for, and well-maintained. The food local and delicious.
