4-days Safari at Lake Manyara, Serengeti and NgoroNgoro Conservational Area
Travelling with my 19-years old son we experienced a fantastic organisation by African traits from the moment of pick-up for Safari until the included drop-off at the airport when our jouney was over after 4 days. The Safari was exactly what we expected, we booked the trip with camping, the sites were clean and there was a nice atmosphere with other travellers and the accompanying staff, good and sufficient fresh food provided by our cook. Our driver George was not only an excellent driver, but very pleasant person to spent a lot of time with as well. On top he was able to explain a lot about wildlife and had incredible skills to spot the animals. Godfrey, the manager of the company is doing his work with true passion. Before and after the Safari he visited us in our hotel to make sure that everything was perfect and gave us the feeling that it was really important to him that we had a great time. This was indeed the case and we can absolutely recommend booking with African Traits.
Regarding the price this it was much better than any offer we got from agencies in Europe organizing such trips and we cannot imagine anything could have been done in a more professional way. A big Thank You to African Traits!

Everything was top notch - excellent customer service & personalised package=memorable experience.
SkyWide exceeded my expectations. I simply needed an holiday that would allow me to unwind. Apart from this, they ensured that it would be a very memorable experience for all of us. They ensured that they have communicated the travel plan and all logistics in time and also kept in touch during the travels.
I will definitely continue using them as my travel agency.

excellent and the most thrilling experience
It was the best safari trip we enjoyed in our life. Hats off to Tony and his crew for the spectacular experience that they offered to us. Very friendly, highly informative and very safe. Offered us the best wild life sights though it was scary to see the lions very close, i even felt its breath. Really wish to have more trips with this crew.

Wonderful experience!
My wife and I had an amazing time on safari and in Zanzibar! We will never forget the trip and hello Tanzania really went the extra mile to make sure we were taken care of. Highly recommend! Our safari guide, Charles, was one of the trip highlights!

Well Recommended!!!
We visited Kenya in February and our safari took us from Nairobi to Kericho for the Tea farms as am a tea lover and always wanted to see the farms then to Kakamega forest as my husband loves the birds and walking. We wanted a non tourist route to avoid congestion but we had to see Masai Mara and the wildlife and it was fantastic. Our guide was amazing with our teenage boys as they bonded very well. The safari was well organised by Zippy and her team and the level of service was beyond our expectation , we were really touched by the generosity and the effort that went to make our safari a success. Asante!!(Thank you)

Well Thought Out Itinerary
Pembury Tours (thank you Kerry!) provided us a well thought out itinerary. From the time we landed in South Africa to when we left in Johanessburg - it was a smooth trip. The guides were knowledgeable. The accommodation picked up for us was great specially Nottens Bush Camp in Kruger. We didn't know what to expect on our first safari but it exceeded our expectation. Kerry was able to provide suggestions so we can fill in our days with activities without being hectic. The transfers were easy even if we have to go thru Passport control. Kerry was easy to work with and very prompt. She was patient answering our unending questions . I would highly recommend Pembury Tours to anyone.

The tour exceeded the high expectations I had. Highly recommended.
Everything from the initial contact I made via email until the driver dropped us off in Nairobi at the end of the trip was excellent.
Our driver (Arony) was friendly, welcoming and a pleasure to spend our 4 day Masai Mara trip with. He got us into the best positions to see all the big animals up close, even taking into consideration the position of the sun for top quality photos! I felt he went beyond his duty to ensure we had a great experience.
The food, especially in the camp we stayed in, was delicious. The tents we stayed in were also of high quality. Better than I had expected.
All in all, if I was going to do a safari again in Kenya, I would choose Karibou again, and would request Arony as the driver.

It delivers safari excitement and tourists' expectations.
Tony's knowledge of Savuti environment - be they plants or animals or birds or weather or campsite officials - is vast and deep. He delivered answers to our ever-curious minds and we were about 20 in our group. In fact in my count I have included Tony and his fellow driver subconsciously! If safari is invariably a good experience, safari with Tony Mobile Safari is in deed a rare and sometimes a life-changing experience. Tony touched our hearts, I should say.

Outstanding safari delivers more than expected service.
From first contact to seeing me off at the airport 2 weeks after my tour ended, Zippy, Evans, John and Robinson looked after my every need. Zippy called daily to the crew to find out how I was and spoke to me directly on occasion to ensure that I was happy and comfy. No breakdowns, no accidents, everything went smoothly and the itinerary was well planned and followed. John provided great meals, and we even shopped together which I enjoyed. The vehicle even has wi-fi! Evans is an expert guide and is very passionate about his vocation. We had 9 days of unforgettable game viewing and site seeing. I was so happy with Australken that I hired a driver for 2 days of touring around Nairobi at the end of my stay in Kenya. Not only did I have Robinson to drive but John came as well and we had a great time together. I have been on several safaris prior and rate this one as the best one thus far and highly recommend Australken.
