I would choose Ute Sonnenberg and And Beyond for ALL my future travel (safari).
I had previously been on safari in Tanzania with another organization and I really believed it could not be beat. And it truly was. Ute's choices and recommendations for us were so spot on, the number and choice of camps, how many days at each, giving us the perfect variety of game to visit. She was always responsive, adjusting our trip to accommodate our seemingly endless needs, and rather last minute too. She was amazing, booking our wonderful Cape Town Hotel as well. The consistent quality of And Beyond, (we did 4 camps, two in Phinda and 2 in or near Lion Sands) the incredible talent and training of our Rangers and trackers, was unfathomable, as was the hospitality throughout. We've only been home a week and can't wait to start planning our next trip. Way beyond expectations.

Best Safari ever!
We have visited Murchison Falls National Park several times over the past 15 years but the safari we made with Adventure Expeditions Uganda in January was easily the best trip we have had. From the start the communication and arrangements were clear, efficient and friendly. We had door-to-door service in a comfortable, clean vehicle which was very much suited to our trip. We stayed at Paraa Lodge and Adventure Expeditions had put everything in place, even obtaining the type of rooms we asked for. Our guide, Remmy, was friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgeable, so that we were able to see close-up the maximum amount of game during our time, including watching a lioness stalk her prey and make a kill. Angel Kirunda, the Director of Adventure Expeditions was very attentive, phoning us during the trip to make sure everything was going well, and going out of her way to help us - my wife had expressed an interest in authentic Ugandan music and Angel tracked down a CD, meeting us in Kampala to give it to us personally. I have no hesitation in recommending Adventure Expeditions and would certainly be very happy to travel with the company again.

Excellent planning and execution by Patricia
We have considered four different travel operators for the private safari tour for our group of 4 adults for 16 days in March of 2017. Patricia from Travel for Change Africa proved to be the most professional of them all, with an admirable attention to detail, flexibility, and great communicational and organizational skills. She offered us a truly luxurious safari experience within a still competitive budget, and she managed to execute it all in style. Any hiccups, while only expected in Africa especially during such a long trip, she resolved flawlessly, even managing to upgrade our accommodations a notch higher (as in the Four Seasons). Traveling in Africa one needs to be prepared for the unexpected, but it was comforting to know there were professionals one could rely watching over us to help smooth the ride. We had traveled hundreds of miles throughout Kenya and Tanzania, oftentimes hazardous to say the least, yet we would all come back to do it all over again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended. Cheers to Patrick (our guide in Kenya)

What do myou mean?
We had a very nice safari to Amboseli Kibo camp. The fixed tents were very comfartable, with a toilet and running water! The food was luxery. A little bit too luxery for my taste.
We had a very good driver/guide: Lawrence.
Tulienjoy sana!

Amazing and Unforgettable Experience
Going to a Safari with Selous Tours was one of the best choices I've ever made. Our guides were amazing, experienced and very resourceful - we were able to see lots of different animals because of them. They knew what they were doing.
Staying in the campsite at Andover Reserve was also an important part of the experience - we had amazing moments there to share our impressions, experiences and having a few drinks. The whole crew - guides, cooks, drivers - was extremely friendly, good people to talk to and to have a good time.
Last but not least, all the service was done in a very professional way - equipment, schedule, punctuality, meals (delicious, by the way), driving, etc.

A great but tiring experience
One of the plus points with Viva Safaris is that they pick you up from your J'oburg hotel and drop you back there at the end of the safari which does make life a whole lot easier. What happens when you arrive at Tremisana? You drop your bags and head off on a game drive and twenty minutes later you arrive in front of 4 lions who are sunning themselves. After that , elephants, zebra's etc and then evening meal in the bush followed by 3 more lions, what a start! Next morning up at 5 for a game walk, fascinating. Then followed by an evening drive, a full day in the Kruger, another early morning drive and then back to J'oburg. a full on experience. Accommodation was good, food was fine. Also we got the impression thsat the people there , particularly the two who took us on the bush walk really cared about the bush and the animals

Perfect
Everything about the safari 3day-2nights that we had booked at Serena Mara was excellent. The staff at Axis were friendly and competent. The safari guide was on time to receive us at the Nairobi airport with a jeep in excellent condition. We had zero troubles on the long drive to the Mara and during the stay were helped by the guide at every step. He even stopped at the lake nyvasha on the way back to Nairobi which wasnt part of the original itinerary. We cant stress enough how good a time we had and would definitely recommend a safari experience at Mara and if my experience is anything to go by Axis Africa guys should be more than capable to organize one for you.

Best personalised safari experience
We went with Avocet Safaris as they provided a personalised itinerary based on what we liked and wanted to visit. This is something that was really important to us. They were also really flexible. It was a two-way communication approach instead of a company stuffing a package to us.
Jeff, the MD, is also really kind and took care of us since Day 1.
The price is reasonable, the food is amazing, the tour guide is knowledgable but most importantly, the experience was authentic yet safe. Thank you Jeff for everything. We hope to return soon.
