Great experience in Botswana
Rose has organized for us a "twin" safari stay in the Okavango delta combining a water safari location in the Belmond eagle Island lodge very interesting for getting close by boat to crocs, elephants, hippos (even very close to those guys), impalas and all sorts of birds and a land safari location in the Belmond Khwai river lodge which is really fantastic (if you go ask for a guide named Obie, he is the best!) here you'll find a lot of games and a very nice staff, good food, good wine and nice rooms.. the place to go!

Fantastic tour with Hamza!
Our guide with Tima Tours was Hamza Mzee and he was just fantastic! He showed us Stone Town and took us to the evening market. We toured the spice farm which was so fascinating! And he took us to the roof of the hotel for best sunset view - really fun! Hamza was completely professional, informative and friendly. I would highly recommend him!!! And we still keep in touch - Tima Tours has a treasure in Hamza Mzee!

Excellent service!
When we visited Tanzania, it was the last country out of the three in our EAST AFRICAN TOUR TRIP. We were not planning on going on to a safari. As we had seen some animals in Kenya, and some in UGANDA. All we wanted now was to relax a bit, check out the majestic Kili, eat local food, etc...Then, when we were eating at Kibo Palace restaurant, my wife suggested that maybe she should do a Safari, even if it is just one day, just for the sake of it. Our Airbnb host gaves us the name Samless adventure as their offices were close to where we were staying. Sam came to see us we told him what we wanted, and he recommended us to go to Tarangire National Park. Sam's driver/guide came to pick us up the next morning right on time. He was so nice, and we had an amazing time with him. As for the safari, we saw all the animals that we wanted to see, except the KING. Apparently, on a hot sunny day, the lion as any other cats hid under the shades. Thank you Samless Adventures for making our unplanned safari became an amazing one. I will come again!

Best experience
Our experience with wildlife safari Exploreans was just amazing. Great communication: weeks before our travel we stayed in contact daily with Mildred, who was so kind to explain us all the details about the safari. She was very polite and professional, and everything during these days went exactly as she told us. The safari itself has been one of the best experience in our life. Well arranged, without any kind of problem or delay and with a reasonable price comparing to other companies. The Jeep was good, the tents were beautiful. But the first place is for our guide, Sammy. He has been just perfect: smart, kind, always on time and precise. It has been a real pleasure for us to spend our week with him. He’s a great, great diver, never rude, always helpful. He loves animals and nature, and his passion is evident when he tells you everything about any single animal or tree you’ll see during your game.

3 Days Governors’ Camp
We had a wonderful 3-day safari at Governors’ Camp in the Masai Mara. Booked it through the Internet with Wildlife Safari Exploreans and were impressed with a timely, prompt and absolutely perfect service from booking, pickup at and return to the hotel. Thanks to Mildred and her team!

Totally professional, superbly organised and well communicated in all aspects.
My wife and I have recently completed a 16 day tour of Southern Africa (our first), 12 of which consisted of a tour organised by Roho Ya Chui (through Ute Sonnenberg) comprising visits to Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe) and the safari camps of Muchenje, Ghoha Hills Savuti and Machaba in Botswana.
In the initial stages we acquired quotes and itineraries from two agents in Australia and two in South Africa. By comparison, Ute's was not the cheapest quote received nor was it the most expensive however we found her to be the most comprehensive in her ability to match the parameters we had set. Most importantly however was Ute's responsiveness to our contacts and her adaptability to several changes we made throughout the process.
It also helped that we were able to undertake a Skype session with her where many of our questions were answered and the ease in which we were ultimately able to book and pay. In so far as the tours went themselves, all our road transfers and light aircraft flights (3 in total) went to schedule and all the venues chosen exceeded all our expectations.
We also had the pleasure of meeting Ute in Johannesburg on the last day of our tour and found her to be just as excited about what we had just experienced on our trip as we were. We can only suggest that if you are planning a trip to Africa make sure you visit the Roho Ya Chui website and really consider organising and undertaking your trip with Ute. You will not be disappointed. Thanks Ute. We hope to travel to Africa again in the future and will certainly use your services again when we do.
Best Regards

Everything we hoped it would be
Communications with Mack via email were swift and comprehensible.
We were picked up at the airport on arrival by our guide, Thomas, who would be with us for the whole week. We signed up for a budget camping safari, and we had a great time! The campsites were nicer than I thought they would be, and the Kiliholidays team did a great job of taking care of us the whole trip. Thomas was very accommodating, and our 'stomach engineer' did a fantastic job the whole trip. My partner and I were very impressed by the quality of the food. Thomas was an incredible driver; a few times we had to stop and help other drivers who were stuck! This was my second visit to East Africa, and I will definitely book with Kiliholidays for my third trip :)
A few tips for other travelers: The sleeping mattress was a bit thin for me (my partner had no trouble!), but I found that sleeping on my back instead of my side helped. If you have sensitive hips, I'd recommend bringing something to use as a cushion, or possibly arranging for an extra mattress. The tent was high-quality and the sleeping bags were warm. We stayed in Mto wa Mbu a few nights and it was quite hot there. We brought sleeping sacks (very thin) and used those instead. Bring LOTS of insect repellent and use it often (biting flies in the daytime, mosquitoes at night). Same with hand sanitizer (public campsite toilets don't usually have soap). Granola bars are a good idea, too, if you like to snack between meals. There's not a lot of access to ice, so if you like an evening adult-beverage, just ask your guide to stop before you leave Arusha to pick up some wine. We picked up a 5-liter box of South African wine for about 25euros and it was very convenient (bring your own cups!).

If you haven’t been on Safari with Mussa then you haven’t been to a proper Safari.
Mussa not only lived up to our expectations but exceeded our dreams and made sure that we saw every animal we wanted to see. He often entertained us with his knowledge of game, the landscape and the local culture and we soon found not only a great tour guide but also a friend in him. The food he arranged for was amazing and nutritious and we simply had the time of our lives. You HAVE to go on Safari with Mussa. Thanks for everything!

Very Good
We would like to sincerely thank everyone who has made an effort to make this safari tour for us.
Especially with Mr. Simon, who organized everything very well. Our driver was very dedicated and competent. Our accommodations were also very good.
Mwema Africa Safaris is highly recommended. Thanks again for everything.
