Excellent Safari Adventure
We had a group of 10. We took an evening sunset game drive and an early morning sunrise game drive. Both were exceptional. We saw a lot of wildlife - elephants, giraffes, lion, lioness, hippos etc. Our guides did a good job of explaining different parts of the the trip. Our group has used this company and Twaha and we keep going back to them. This was my first time with this crew - I can see why we continue to use them. Their service is awesome! I would highly recommend them!

Amazing and almost indescribable!!
From the moment we got off the plane to the moment we departed ways on the last leg of the journey, we felt taken care of like royalty!! We (family group of 7) traveled with Jim the entire way. His knowledge and understanding of all the animals was incredible!! It is indescribable how many animals you see in any given day!! We had over 160 lion sightings, some at an arms length!! Could have petted them, they were that close to our vehicles!! Maybe not a good idea!! We had experiences in several environments. Sometimes dry and arid, and other lush and green. ALL absolutely unbelievable!! The first week, we literally pinched ourselves seeing lions laying around (they do seems like the one of the most lazy creatures! Probably not at night when they are hunting the most!), leopards hanging in trees with their young ones and with their "kill" carcasses hanging in the tree nearby, elephants - babies of all ages, mommies and big guys too, hyenas, baboons, monkeys (lots of monkeys everywhere!), zebras, gazelles- everywhere!- lots of different kinds, the totally cool cheetahs -usually always on the hunt and the move. The icing on the cake for our group was hiking to see the gorillas inn Rwanda (the most incredible country and people!).

Very good customer support
Everything was arranged according to the plan and efforts were made for all of our needs to be customised according to our flight itinerary.
The experience was really enjoyable, the driver was very amusing and helpful.
All accommodations were up to standard.
Better to have a 5-6 people company to reduce the per person price as much as possible.
Special thanks to Simon for dealing with my constantly changing dates and requests!

Amazing Trip with Congo Discovery Safaris!
Highly recommended. My wife and I went on an 8-day tour with Congo Discovery Safaris through Uganda, Rwanda and Democratic Republic of Congo and had a wonderful time. It was our first trip to Africa and Ken, Barack and Jared made it very easy on us. Prior to the tour I emailed with Barack and asked a million questions, but he was always very responsive, kind and helpful.
We met Ken (Barack's brother) and Jared (the best driver I've ever seen) in Uganda and toured with them throughout the country and in Rwanda as well. They were both incredibly nice people and a lot of fun to be around. We saw tons of animals including lions, hippos, elephants, warthogs, hyenas, crocodiles, etc. We then went to Congo to meet Barack and go gorilla trekking and hike up Mt. Nyiragongo - both were incredible experiences that we will never forget.
I would highly recommend Congo Discovery Safaris as everyone we met was very nice and helpful and great tour guides. At no point during the trip did we feel like we weren't taken care of and we always felt completely safe and comfortable. An incredible time and I would love to do another trip with this group. Honestly, they were just great people in general.

True adventure
I absolutely loved my camping experience with Walking Stick Tours. I was very well cared for by Philomon and his helpers. It was an adventure I had dreamed of to be in the midst of African wildlife. Being the only guest was icing on the cake. I will definitely use this company again when I am able to return to Botswana. Philomon was very knowledgeable and I felt secure at all times with him. He was willing to help me get great photos. I highly recommend WST.

Very good communication and organization
The communications before the safari were easy and helpful, trying to adapt to all my needs and to help me enjoy my time in Tanzania. The safari itself was even better than I expected, the organization was good, even though sometimes it might not be easy for Europeans to get used to the Tanzanian tempo, during the safari the scheduled times were always respected, staying in the parks until the last minute to enjoy them thoroughly. The food was very tasty and the driver very knowledgeable.

All aspects of the tour were great from booking to our time under the care of Africa Zim Tours.
Our communication with Africa Zim was first rate right from our initial contact with Sheila and all aspects of the tour were as expected and more. Our tour guide, Blessing, was a most friendly and efficient tour director of our time and always ensured that we were prepared and that we were all at the right place at the right time. He went out of his way to make sure we could incorporate our various requests during our 4 day trip. Our accommodations at Bayete Lodge and Hwange Safari Lodge suited us perfectly and we enjoyed all the aspects of both - both so picturesque with good food and friendly people. Victoria Falls was a wonderful experience despite the rain and the Boma dinner was so much fun. Our game drives at Hwange were amazing and we saw a wide variety of animals and birds. Our game drive guide, who Blessing arranged, was most informative about the animals and birds that we encountered and there was never a rush when we met up with the various wildlife. It was certainly a trip of a lifetime. Thanks you African Zim!

A wonderful experience seeing many animals in a short time
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the animals. He treated everyone on safari well. Our tour was made at the last minute & we only had a short time so the tour company was flexible. They offered us a number of options for us to choose from. I loved every minute!
