Great travel company.
All our questions about our travel arrangements were answered very quickly. They were very accomodating when we needed to make changes. Our tour guide, Wilson, was very knowledgable and all the details of our trip were worked out smoothly. When we had some sick family members, he made sure that they were looked after. We had a great safari experience and Wilson made sure we were able to get the best experience possible during the safari. We saw lots of wildlife and the cruise was great. Overall the travel company was very professional.

Wow. An amazing trip , tailor made. Every thing we wanted it to be.
We started to make enquiries with a number of tour operators. We choose Zozo for a number of reasons. They were really very responsive to our enquiries, and there were lots of them. Rosette the travel consultant was excellent. All enquiries were fully answered , with the options that would be available to us. They were able to offer a tailor made trip at a competitive price. It was a very good decision of ours To choose them.
Zozo met us at the airport , were really warm and friendly. We felt very comfortable from the moment we landed.
Throughout the two week trip with the Zozo driver ,Salim and guide ,Egide were both very professional, friendly punctual , knowledgeable and were able to answer our questions. They knew the best places to stop for photos and would stop if there were photos we wanted to get. In fact they were really good company too.They ensured that border crossing and checking into hotels all went smoothly and we felt looked after ,and they taught us to play Matatu a very enjoyableRwandan card game.
We had planned to visit Virunga in Congo but through no fault of Zozo’s after a security incident the park was closed two weeks before our trip started . Rosette and Ellie the boss put a lot of effort into rearranging the internary to make it possible for us to gorilla trek in Uganda instead ,which was the the highlight of holiday.
There was nothing about-the planning or delivery of our trip that you could criticise. Zozo provided us with a trip of a lifetime . We received excellent service from start to finish and felt like we were valued customers and all efforts were made to deliver a personalised trip , even the boss Ellie made the time to come and meet us and accompany us on a city tour.
I would highly recommend this company. You won’t be disappointed.

Excellent service, easy bookings.
We booked a trip to Mabula Lodge through World’s Ultimate Travels. The communication with World’s Ultimate Travels were easy and convenient, they responded quickly to all our requests and provided usefull feedback. The website is very easy to use and we received our booking voucher shortly after booking. The tour were excellent, we travelled with our two kids aged 6 and 3 which can be a challenge on a Safari, but World’s Ultimate Travels reccomended Mabula as they were able to arrange for the kids to be able to join us on the game drives, makng it an enjoyable experience for the whole family. We are looking forward to book our next safari through World’s Ultimate Travels.

The most wonderful trip
I had two amazing weekends. One trip to Sossusvlei and one to the Etosha National park. Both were just perfect and so beautiful. Sedney, our Tour guide was simply the best. We had a lot of fun all the time and all of us were just happy. Great food, perfect organisation and the most dreamlike places and landscapes. I can not imagine a better trip. Thank you so much for the unforgettable time and the fantastic impression!

The excursions he chose were amazing- He found us great guides and wonderful adventures.
For improvement, I think just communication... for example we had no clear idea what to expect re. the border crossing and how and where to meet our guide. That was a bit unnerving.
He was, however, a very good guy and very kind. We felt he knew the areas and always felt good/safe when with him.
The side trips were great- though I would have preferred to stay in just 2 hotels total (not 3) for our 4 nights in Uganda.
We absolutely loved the Birdnest resort and the boat tour there and both the gorilla and golden monkey treks were outstanding!
Loved the Heaven restaurant (in Rwanda where we had lunch after landing there) and were glad we went to the Rwanda genocide museum where we learned more about the absolutely sad and horrific atrocities that occurred there.

Great Experience
I had a great time with the Hekima Crew. They are super friendly, fun, and best of all professional. They make sure everything runs perfectly and you have a unforgettable experience on safari. The guide and chef were excellent, and overall I loved it. Highly recommend booking with this company.

No more zoos for this family.
Our experience with Wild Planet Safari was perfect from beginning to end. Our guides Chris and Benjamin helped to make our first safari amazing. Chris was just as invested in finding all of the animals, and shows that he has a passion for the bush. We asked for a leopard, and Chris found us a leopard. We asked for a honey badger, Chris said it was unlikely but found us a honey badger. We asked for an animal eating another animal, and Chris found us a leopard eating an impala in a tree. Eventually, our family started calling Chris "magic" because he delivered every animal we asked for despite the unpredictableness of the animals.
Benjamin made delicious food and every meal was a treat. We couldn't wait to go home and try to repeat his amazing recipes. He worked hard throughout the whole trip, and brought so much laughter to our family. We never had to lift a finger to help clean or cook, and he worked so hard to make us a table full of food at every meal, and even dessert after dinner.
Together, Chris and Benjamin added humor and knowledge to our trip, making our safari unforgettable. These two guides, and the company as a whole, will make sure your trip is perfect too.

Very well managed tour - Nairobi to Masai Mara!
Adventure 360 help us booked our Safari tour in Kenya and Tanzania. The tour in Kenya covered the transfer from Nairobi to Masai Mara, and included the guided tour and stay within the Masai Mara NP. Our guide for the 3 days was Joseph. We only have good things to speak about both Joseph and Adventure 360. The tour was very well managed and Joseph was an excellent tour guide. He was extremely knowledgeable about the park, its animals, their habitat and took a lot of efforts to make our game drive a memorable experience! Our accommodation was very well taken care of, and we enjoyed our stay throughout. Double thumbs up to both!

5 day Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro budget safari
I went on a 5 day budget safari in June 2018 to Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We were in a group of four (two couples) and it was a fantastic experience. It was my third safari experience and a first for the other three.
I researched safari companies excessively prior to any bookings and Kili Slope appeared to be the best with regards to reviews and cost. Communication was impeccable and I always received prompt responses to my messages. Payment was made really easy. They ask for a small deposit to secure a safari and the remainder is paid in cash upon arrival. They picked us up from the airport and we were put into a budget hotel for the first night in Arusha for no charge which was an added bonus. The entire package is all-inclusive with no hidden costs (tipping the guide and cook were our only extra costs).
The safari itself was an incredible life-changing experience. Our guide, Salim, was phenomenal. He was friendly, professional at all times, really enthusiastic about his job and just understands animals on a whole other level. He knew exactly where to go and we got into really close proximity to a multitude of animals - cheetahs, lions, leopards, hippos, rhinos, etc. He made it his priority to find us the big five and give us the best experience possible.
We elected for budget accommodation and we stayed in a fairly "glamping" style ensuite tent in Manyara with actual beds and the remainder were in tents pitched in campsites. The Serengeti accommodation was basic with running water for showers in the campsite. It was however made exceptional by Sam's cooking who accompanied us for the trip. We elected to have packed lunches (sandwiches, pancakes, juice, fried chicken, fruit) so we could maximise safari time. We were treated to a hot breakfast and a three-course dinner every day. The Ngorongoro campsite is lush with Wi-fi and hot water.
The service and tour greatly exceeded expectations and I would definitely recommend Kili Slope Tours and Safaris to anybody looking into booking a safari in Tanzania. I would personally request Salim, if at all possible.
Thank you Kili Slopes for a fabulous time!
