FIRST EXPERIENCE, BUT NOT THE LEAST (I HOPE ...).
It is the first travel in Africa for us.
I'm Marco 56 yo, travelling with my guys: Filippo 24 yo and Gianluca 20 yo.
Even if for the first time, we tried to experience something real, safe but non absolutely easy and guided.
We visited Botswana, Moremi and Chobe, with a fast escape in Zimbabwe to Victoria Falls, by Toyota Land Cruiser double roof tends, perfectly equipped.
Megan Warrington planned a travel various, smart, perfect for our expectances; assistance, communications, service, living up were excellent.
We prove gratitude to Megan because African journey is established into our hearts!
Marco, Filippo e Gianluca.

Excellent budget safari, excellent operator!
We had an absolutely great time with Chris on our safari. He was very kind and professional, and Lutea was very transparent and an incredible value! I highly recommend them! The tour was a ton of fun and we hope to come back to Kenya to do it again.

Great Experience. Would definitely do another trip through Gorilla Safaris Uganda.
This was a great trip. I did a safari and boat tour at the Lake Mburo National Park. Gorilla Safaris picked me up from the hotel, drove me around all day, then dropped me of at the airport after the safari. We saw all sorts of animals, including: giraffes, warthogs, impala, zebras, monkeys, topi, water buck, water buffalo, crocodiles, hippos, and several types of birds. The drive to and from the park was also like an extension of the tour. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic and made this a fantastic experience. I would absolutely book another trip through Gorilla Safaris.

We had a wonderful time in each place we stayed - that were were all special.
Each camp we stayed at was special in their own unique way. We particularly enjoyed our stay in the Kalahari at the first camp we visited. All of us were very impressed by the professionalism and heartfelt warmness of the camp staff at each location. The guides in Botswana and Zambia were most impressive with their knowledge of flora, fauna and habitat, and the safaris they conducted.
Besides safari, we visited Cape Town and had a lovely day visiting the nearby wineries, and went to Johannesburg and Soweto, which was an important end to the trip - a reminder of Apartheid and the challenges that continue, not only in South Africa but also here in the US.

Very professional and honest. Good guide and great meal, all in a 1 day game drive
Very good the safari in the Moremi game park for one day. Maybe 2 days of safari allowed to see other scenarios.

we've been on many safaris and this was the best by far.
I was very impressed with Shazmin the consultant who replied to my initial e mail. She spent a lot of time working on a suitable itinerary that would work for a very mixed group . our driver/guide was Malia and he was perfectly suited. Not only knowledgeable about the animals, plants birds etc his general knowledge of his own country, Africa and the rest of the world was impressive. He was courteous, neat , punctual and went out of his way to make this the most memorable experience ever. The follow up by leopard consultants and airport transfers were exellent. Although this is a big company the attention to detail is phenomenal and we felt that they treat every person as if they are of the highest importance. These few days by far exceeded our expectations and we have done many many safaris in southern and east Africa. I would go so far as to say that if anyone is considering a safari this is THE only option.

Weekend trip to Madikwe
Emmelyn was unbelievably helpful, responsive, and accommodating. From start to finish she was available to assist with questions and suggestions. Emmelyn planned, coordinated, and booked a trip for myself and four colleagues from Gaborone, Botswana to Madikwe in South Africa. Our van showed up promptly as scheduled and our driver Frank escorted us through both countries' Customs and safely to Madikwe. We stayed at Tao Lodge which was unbelievable- even better and more luxurious than expected. The food was great, the lodging was perfect and the game drives were incredible!! We saw SO many animals with young including rhinos, lions, cheetahs, and tons of elephants! Would DEFINITELY use Safari Tours again, it took so much of the stress out of planning a trip! Can't recommend Emmelyn enough!

A Wonderful Trip!
My family booked a 10 day trip (6 days safari in Tanzania and 4 days in zanzibar) with African Paradise Safaris.
John Peter who served us throughout booking was not only extremely efficient in communicating but also answered all of our questions and catered for the fine details/requests of our trip. It was a pleasure working with John Peter to organise the trip. He also provided recommendations on places to stay if anyone requires this service, however we had done our own research and he was happy to accommodate the places we had chosen in our package. I had received quotes from a number of companies but some operators were unable to adhere to certain requests. African Paradise were able to offer us the best package inclusive of everything.
The trip itself was excellent, especially the safari. Our driver Frank was a good guide and knew the national parks inside out and where to look for certain game. Where he could improve is being more efficient, for example in driving...I'm not sure if there was a problem with his car but he seemed a little slower than other vehicles.
Otherwise there are not many areas I can think of where African Paradise can improve on their service. I did see many open vehicles on safari which looked really nice so maybe this could be an option in the future, even though the closed vehicles are more than adequate.
Overall, we had a great time and I would highly recommend using African Paradise Safaris.
