Communication was stellar, arrangements perfect and was completely looked after arranging my safari
Dulini Lodge was amazing and everything on time. The transfers were a pleasant part of the journey. I was treated like a star. I could not recommend the service arrangements and safari more highly.

Well worth the price
I would recommend anyone to book a safari through this company. They were friendly and provided our group a wonderful day trip in a cool vehicle.

We LOVED our Suricata Safari!!
We just got off the trip of a lifetime and it was all due to Suricata Safaris!! Our awesome driver Ezekiel and a super talented chef Charles made it all possible. Those guys along with the owner Hilary make a great team. They all worked above and beyond to make our trip better than we even hoped for. These guys give you the same safari as the bigger companies but at a better price. I HIGHLY recommend this company if you are ever in Tanzania for a safari. All pics so close and only with a cell phone!!

Wild Wings Safaris exceeded our expectations for planning and delivering a trip of a lifetime.
If I could give more than 5 stars I would! We booked our full trip - the 5 day Best of Kruger safari, 2 days at Naledi private game reserve, a trip to Victoria Falls (including rafting) and a week in Cape Town - all through the incredible team at Wild Wings. Gavin planned everything to the last detail and created the perfect customized trip for us. He is extremely knowledgeable and helped us figure out how to get the most bang for our buck. He took care of all the flights, transfers and details - leaving us some unscheduled time to create our own itinerary and explore - and was an absolute pleasure to work with. We even had a chance to meet him while on Safari as he was there on a family trip during the same time! The folks at Wild Wings - from planning with Gavin to our Safari guide, Nikki, are professional, fun and passionate about their work. Nikki went above and beyond for our trip - taking the time to answer questions, seeking out the big game and sharing her deep knowledge of the animals and landscape. We can't believe how lucky we were to see every single animal on our list - including the big 5 and then some. I would absolutely recommend the 5 days in Kruger because you get to stay at different camps and see different types of animals, environments, etc... it is the full experience and you will never be bored! We wanted a mix of affordability, a few nights of luxury and some serious adventure and Wild Wings delivered beyond our dreams. Every hotel, meal, experience they recommended was excellent. Trust me... call Gavin!

Spectacular safari,Very enthusiastic, thoughtful and knowledgeable about wildlife and nature
We were very excited and apprehensive to be going on our first safari through World Safari Land Tours Company (not knowing what to expect). From the moment we met World Safari Land Tours staff we knew we were in good hands. Our guide/driver, and Calvin the director, were waiting to pick us up from the Kilimanjaro Air port and attended to all of our needs/questions. We couldn't have asked for a better guide...Musa answered all our questions about the local history, safari animals, plants and landscape. As we spent more time with him, we really felt that he is a very genuine/kind person. Musa was very professional and an excellent driver. He is very experienced with tours and taking care of his clients. We especially enjoyed talking to him about his time taking clients up Kilimanjaro and hiking the Ngorongoro Highlands.
The accommodations were amazing...Sangaiwe Tented Lodge, Kati Kati Camp, and the Ngorongoro Sopa Lodge. We felt like kings staying at these locations.
Calvin Onkendi, the Director, and his stuff were also involved from the beginning and all the way to the end of our Tanzanian stay. We met them at the beginning of our trip for an orientation and also before we left Arusha to review our experience. World safari land tours company is committed to excellent service and the price suits your desires .
We would definitely recommend World Safari Land Tours to our friends and Travelers interested to visit East Africa

If you can avoid this company, do it - it will be better for your Tanzanian experience
We booked a safari for 3 nights and 4 days in October 2018. The tent they provided had holes all over and water came inside when it rained. Poor equipement for everything. Food was great though.
To sum up our experience (with the management, not the drivers), if everything is ok then alright, if a problem occurs then it's your loss.
We had a faboulous driver, he showed us many wonderful things, and always went the extra mile to show us what we wanted and caring for us when one of us was sick.
But the management of the company and mainly from the manager : Kassim Abdallah, was one of the worst management I ever seen. The company gave our driven a broken car, that stopped several times during our trip. Every time, our driver tried to fix it (and sometimes paying with his own money!). But what was supposed to happen, happened eventually. On our evening in the Serengeti, the car broke completely. We had to push the car to make it start again, which worked at first, but then it stopped again and for good. So we waited in the car for half a day, in the middle of the wildlife, while our driver was left alone by the company to find a solution for us. Our driver finally found a fellow driver that was able to bring us to our camp for the last night but we never saw our driver again.
We requested the same driver for our last day but they sent another one anyway. What was worse is that the manager, Kassim, did not event try to get in touch with us to keep us updated and to ask us if the arrangments made were ok for us. We were left waiting, not knowing what would happen since our cook did not have any news, and did not speak english enough to explain even if he knew. On our last day, we asked the new driver to take us to the office to speak with the manager but when the new driver called him, we overheard him ordering not to bring us to the office and "offer" our ride back to the airport.
Client service = 0. If I could go back, I would have paid more instead of saving money and be treated as badly as Bobby Tours treated us.

Safari of a lifetime
I have been going to Kenya for safari holidays for some years now and I would not book with anyone other than Gamewatchers.
It's very re-assuring knowing that you are going to be taken care of, from the moment you leave Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi, to the moment you are dropped off for your flight home. I like the attention to detail and consideration that they show, with the team in Nairobi working hard behind the scenes to keep your safari superb no matter what is thrown at you. Over the years they've:
1. Kept a vehicle on the other side of the river so we could cross on a footbridge in anticipation of it being too high to drive through safely (it was!)
2. Communicating with the airline to have a flight back to Nairobi wait for us
3. Lent me an SD card when my own one was full
There are also little things, like the guides staying at the airstrip to wave you off as your flight lifts off rather than drive away as soon as you are on the plane.
I wouldn't go anywhere else

Amazing Hospitality and beautiful country 10 days safari
First time to visit Uganda but it was worth it though my keen interest was the primate treks and the experience was breath taking. Thank God Roger Advised that its raining in the jungle and i came prepared and didn't slide much, guides were helpful and well informed. Bwindi forest jungle park, Queen Elizabeth park, Kibaale forest park and Murchison falls park were my safari destination. Roads are horrible off the tarmac but the safari car was in good shape. Hope to visit soon with friends
i do recommend WalMark Africa safaris, they were supportive in my itinerary discussions and schedule
