Holiday of lifetime
5/5

We got contacts of Africa Celebrity tours via safari bookings. When we contacted them they were in time while responding our many emails and queries since it was our first time to visit Kenya. WE booked 12 day Kenya & Tanzania safari for my family. We are happy we made the best choice. What they promised is what we got. Thank you Muli and the Africa Celebrity tours team for making our holiday dreams come true. For Kenya & Tanzania safari Africa Celebrity is the best!

Prompt and efficient
5/5

We contacted Muli of Africa Celebrity tours from Kenya. He was very effective and gave all the information. We booked our safari and the Driver Anthony was more than a driver, very friendly and patient. We will always recommend Africa Celebrity for the amazing services.

Fantastic, customised trip of great value
5/5

We had a fantastic trip to Southern Africa and Kerry made it a seamless experience. Everything was well-planned and I liked the ability to customise the trip but was always given top notch options. Kerry responded quickly and did a great job with the overall itinerary and timing. We will definitely go through her for our next trip to Souther n Africa.

Experienced a good organised safari. We experienced that some mistakes were made on our trip back home, but they correct it very quick and in a good way.

Satisfied Namibia travel
5/5

We ordered African coast travel to configure Namibia private tour.
Our purpose of visiting Namibia is to go Namib desert, meeting Himba people tribe and safari in Etosha National park.
Unfortunately, We only have 5days,4nights to spend tourism in Namibia.
In addition, we hesitate expensive plan because we are backpackers.

Although almost tour company refuse our request because of tight schedule and cost,
African coast travel accept our plan and compose attractive 5days,4nights plan including everything we request.
Furthermore, the price was also good.
On first impression, this tour seems very busy, but far from being busy, it had time to spare. We had enough time to sped activity and were able to arrive each hotel until 18 o'clock.

Describe our tour, We visited Sossusvlei Dune45 and Deadvlei(sadly we couldn't see sunrise...), met beautiful people of Himba, and could 2days game drives of safari in Etosha National park.
Each hotels(lodge) were so good and clean, and we enjoyed lunch and dinner cooked our own meal with our guide and driver.(self cooking is our request)
It costed US$950pp(accommodation tour)+N$35pp(visiting Himba tribe optional tour).

Totally, we were satisfied this trip. Thank you.

Lean back, relax and enjoy. Benson gives you the safari you are dreaming about!
5/5

Just lean back, relax and enjoy. Benson do everything so you don't have to worry about a thing during your safari. You can really trust that this safari company give you what they promise you. All aspects of the safari, from the comunication with the owner Benson prepearing your trip, guides, and acomondation, everything is excellent. I did not hesitate to recomend Benson safari when a colleague were going to Tanzania for safari. Her family also had a great safari with Benson. I had a great safari in Ngorongoro. The guide found all the big 5, he was experienced and pleasant. I came back to Arusha the following year. On this trip i got sick, and the only person i trusted to call was Benson. He helped me to find a good hospital and i got the treatment i needed. I have been on safari with another company in the aerea befor, but if I will come back for another safari in the future, I am sure I will book with Benson again. I highly recomend this safari company.

Fantastic trip with wonderful guide and chef
5/5

I went on a 4-day budget (camping) safari to Lake Manyara, Ngorogoro and Serengeti with Northern Circuit. I had booked thru Tropical Islands vacations, but then Northern Circuit conducted the trip. I couldn't have been happier with the way it turned out.
Our guide, Elias, was simply fantastic, both as a guide and as a person. He was very knowledgable with all the animals as well as culture and history. He always seemed to know what the group was interested in seeing and doing (without us actually telling him). He spent extra time with us on evening game drives and he went out of his way several times to track and show us more animals (or to let us take the 500th photo of that zebra, when we'd taken 499 already from every possible angle but that single one). He had a peaceful and kind way of doing the safari, without ever being boring. We felt that he was genuinely interested in making this a special trip for us and that he was himself fond of the area and the animals.
Our chef, Sweetbart, was a lively and very likable guy. He cooked us amazing dishes in these rather limited facilities. It was always plentyful and all his dishes seemed to have a personal touch. They were always a bit more than your regular safari food. Actually, it was some of the best food I had in 2 months in EA.
Organization and handling (setting up tents, leaving on time, etc.) was also superb.
I honestly cannot think of anything I disliked about the trip. Of course, the stunning environment and animals also help in making this a unique experience.
I can strongly recommend doing a safari with Elias and Sweetbart.

100% in everything
5/5

"Ilse" was my communicator by email and was always fast to reply and gave me the extra information I asked for very precisely (where to buy trekking boots in Entebbe). I was looked after from pick-up at Entebbe Airport to drop off at my hostel in Kampala perfectly. There were actually 6 in the group, and our driver David, a complete gentleman, who drove for all those hours with total professionalism. The overnights in the lodge, at Mutanda Lake Resort, were perfect. I have never been in any hotel anywhere with such a magnificent 360 degree panorama. The accommodation was right at the top of the "moderate" range - the food superb. The showers were hot. Now about the actual gorillas...

We were with them for 1 hour 35 minutes, mainly because they were blocking our way out after an hour!!! Thank you gorillas. Seeing them and being so close is a mixture of humbling and overpowering.

We stopped en route both ways for lunch at a really good restaurant too.

A faultless 3-day expedition - keep up your superb work, Matoke Tours!!!
