Fabulous!!!
5/5

I'm a Travel agent in the US. I had a few clients that wanted to join me on a safari. I found KWSS on Safari Bookings. One of the first things that I like was OT's prompt response. I hit send and in less than 20min he was calling me in the USA about my enquiry. From that day to this one I have found a new friend and supplier for future customers.
Now for the good part... OT was hands on the entire time. We spent 3 weeks in Africa...
Kenya Highlights... Maasi Mara Great Migration, Hot Air Ballooning
Uganda Highlights... Gorilla Treking... Saw 4 silver back, 1 female and a juvenile...will do again
Tanzania Highlights...Serengeti. Stayed in a tented camp and hyena's all around my tent yelping all night...scary but a true adventure. And of course we saw all the big 5, and more.
Highly recommend we had a wonderful time.
Thanks OT

Since 2012 I have always been impressed by the hospitality of Amazing Tanzania
5/5

Since 2012 I have booked my safaris with Amazing Tanzania every year to my absolute satisfaction. I am impressed by their efficiency combined with kind hospitality.
I let them know what I would like to do, and they give me excellent advice. They book my inland flights and different lodges. I can count on their recommendations and efficient service.
Every year I spend a few days at their camp in Salei. The staff is kind, the tents are spacious and the food is excellent - what more do you want. The tours are well organized, there is something for everybody. After walking safaris or a days drive to the Rift relax around the camp fire to enjoy the silence under the wonderful star studded sky with Oldoynio Lengai in the distance.
Laura and Colin are excellent hosts, in short I can only recommend Amazing Tanzania

An amazing holiday!!
5/5

We have just returned from an amazing trip to South Africa where we visited the Cape and Elephant Coast. What a fantastic time we had, and everything was so well organised! The order of destinations in which Tailor Made Safaris put our itinerary together was perfect, and so were the activities they had included. Our favourites were Tembe Elephant Park where we felt we were treated as kings, and Mavela Game Lodge where the game viewing was just unreal! Four black rhino, cheetah with three cubs, lions on a kill, and much, much more. We highly recommend Tailor Made Safaris to everyone, and are pretty certain we ourselves will be back in the near future! Rik, Jarco & Richard

An experience of a lifetime
5/5

I cannot recommend Paul Tickner Safaris enough. Prior to arriving in Tanzania, Paul helped us design a trip specific to ours wants and expectations. This being Tanzania, any unforseen issues were dealt with efficently and quickly leaving us to enjoy what proved to be an incredible trip.

On safari, Paul's extensive knowledge and expertise were available at all times. The sightings of leopards, lions, elephants, giraffes, hippos, eagles, zebra (the list goes on) was always complemented by Paul's expertise, which only enriched our time on safari and in Tanzania in general. Paul clearly loves what he does and cares deeply for his clients experience.

As it's probably become apparent, I would without doubt recommend Paul's services. If you're thinking about going on safari then do not take any shortcuts, Paul's integrity and knowledge will ensure you'll haves a trip of a lifetime.

Once in a lifetime experience!
5/5

Peter and Louis were amazing. Peter not only assisted me with booking this safari for myself and my friends, but he also guided me and gave me sound advice regarding other aspects of my trip that had nothing to do with the safari. In other words, he went above and beyond the call of duty and truly helped me and my friends to have a great trip in this beautiful country. Louis was our safari guide and was superb as well. He is funny, knowledgeable, and a great guide. The safari would not have been the same without him. Thank you to the whole crew! I highly recommend Bestday Safaris!!!

4 Days Trip to Uganda
5/5

I thank gorilla tour booking safari for their tender care they gave us during our 4-day trip to Uganda.
We sent dozens of emails to Ronnie and sometimes we felt it was a little too much but he replied with care, love, and with great professionalism. This is was the first glimpse of an accommodating company. Upon arrival we discussed so much about our itinerary with our guide, peter, who was polite, and knowledgeable about the parks. We had to ask all questions so as to keep our expectations so high.

The car was good with suitable seats that could give you the kind of comfort that you desired. I had to check out that first because I knew we were going to travel long distances to the parks and these guys never disappointed.

At the park, we all had the necessary requirements to go for gorilla trekking however we hired porters to help us carry the bags because we wanted to enjoy the moment without feeling so much tired. It took us sometime though not hours for us to see the group which we had gone to trek. Actually, we enjoyed moving around the jungle just searching for these precious animals. The trek was never tiresome as we thought.

I wish we had stayed more in this country. We somehow got attached to the local people so much. Everyone looked so friendly; we never encountered anyone who gave us hard time. For us, this is was a journey worthy paying for.

Thank you gorilla tour booking safari for your great care and security; we felt secure all the time. Trust me, these guys know their industry.

Great Maasai Mara & Nakuru experience... from a South African that knows the Kruger Park well.
5/5

I have to start by saying that "It Started in Africa" handled our booking well from the start - good communication and even went the extra mile when payment from my side was a problem.

They arrived (which was critical) and even on time for our departure... had a great guide Joshua - which I now deem to be a friend. Saw the big 6 (including Cheetah) in our full day in Mara.. as well as great views in Nakuru National Park.

In hind sight - I may have cut out the day to Naivasha & Nakuru and spend an extra day in the Mara - but then you see less of Kenya.. tough decision? Maybe we did well to stick to the recommended plan - with limited time - we saw a lot.

The roads are horrible - but we learnt to even appreciate that - in Kenya a Safari means that you have to endure bad roads ... so in that sense we had a great Safari. For me, I wanted to see animals & landscape (typical Savannah) - and I got more than I bargained for! Saw thousands of Wildebeest, Zebra etc - big 6 in 1 1/2 days - 22 Lions etc etc.

This is one tick on my "bucket list" done .. the only question is when can I come again....

memories for life
5/5

We had the pleasure to have Naiman and Pasco as our guide and chef for a 5 day safari. we booked our trip from Sweden and Naiman was always available answering our question. In Arusha, he picked us up in a almost new 4x4 safari car and we started our journey. i didn’t have any expectations really…this trips started as a “check in the box, bucket list must do before I die” kind of thing, but thanks to Naimans knowledge and enthusiasm during this 5 days, my view and interest changed completely and today I Watch Discovery chanel just to learn more.
I still can’t believe all the things I’ve learned and the respect I’ve gained for nature, wild life and maasai people. I probably asked 2784637856 questions per day, and Naiman did his very best to fill in the gaps (I’m in awe for his patience haha!)

I was so fascinating seeing Naiman and Pasco having this passion for what they do. After 12 years on the field, you would think that one would get pretty tired of lions sleeping or Pumbas running around. But not Naiman. He was as excited as we were and sometimes even more than us :) To have that in a guide is for me priceless.

We had delicious home cooked meal every day ( I still dream about the soup we had the first night) and were never, not for a minute hungry or trusty.
Last but not least, our car did not break or had flat tire (more common that you’ll think…), thanks to the calm and safe driving of Naiman.

Not only can I recommend Quest horizon, I look forward to take another trip very soon again.

Excellent trip to Selous and Mafia island
5/5

This is the 4th time we have Flash Safaris and Photography arrange safaris trips for us, and again we had a fantastic experience. What is so unique is that they are able to tailor the safari to exactly what we want and need, even without us knowing that we need it. The sequence of camps is exactly right, the days we stay in each is correct and our needs as photographers are well taken care of. On top of that, all the logistics /pick-up, flights, hotel bookings etc.) are flawless. We will for sure use Flash Safaris again for our next trips!
