Incredible Greater Kruger/Botswana/Victoria Falls/Okavango Delta Independent Safari
Kerry @ Pembury Tours helped us arrange a fantastic independent game viewing trip that was affordable and exciting. She worked with us over several months, finding great camps and accommodations to suit our individual preferences . . . lots of wildlife/fishing/birdwatching. She booked all the internal flights and a car rental so we could make good connections and make the best use of our time. We emailed frequently, and Kerry was flexible and easily made changes to the itinerary so we could visit all the areas we wanted to see, including Victoria Falls, in a logical sequence. And, when there was a problem with a booking at Kruger National Park, Kerry went above and beyond, and called them daily to see if an opening occurred, and she was able to book the Rest Camp we wanted. Notten's Bush Camp was spectacular, and we loved Simbavati, Chobe Safari Lodge, Pom Pom Camp and Kruger National Park. This was our second time booking a tailor made tour with Kerry and Pembury Tours, and we have enjoyed it so much, we want to go a third time. We will call on Kerry again the next time we travel to Africa!
It was the best time of my life,an unforgetable moment of my life.
The communication,service is super top. You fell comfortable like its your own house, they treat people with love and care im going there for my december holidays because i was treated like a queen.

Awesome safari experience with Tailor Made Safaris!
Perfect 5 stars experience! Tailor Made Safaris showed great initiative in interpreting our wishes. Nick, Freya, Angela and the rest of the staff were very helpful and know exactly how to make your trip unforgettable! The result was a fifteen-day self drive trip that included Sabi Sand Game Reserve in Mpumalanga, Hluhluwe-iMfolozi, Mkhuze and St Lucia in Kwazulu Natal. The accommodations ranged from good to outstanding. We enjoyed all the different game reserves, but Sabi Sand was definitely our highlight! The guides and trackers are real experts and within two gamedrives we saw the Big 5! Fantastic!
If you are planning a trip of a life time to Africa, we would highly recommend Tailor Made Safaris! They really make your dreams come true!

Excellent, safe and exciting experience
The safari experience lived up to expectations and did even more. Very safe and entertaining, the company gave us the best services we could expect, including the food and lodging. The owner was an excellent guide and took his time to explain everything he could. Caring, interested, and funny, he was our guardian angel for the entire trip and I fully recommend him for any safari in Tanzania and Kenya. Outstanding.

Easy, well coordinated and fun trip in Rwanda
We used Go rwanda safaris in March - 2015 for 3 days and the trip turned to be the most wonderful experience of a lifetime. We contacted many tour companies while on ground for a short gorilla trek in Rwanda after our 2 weeks volunteering programe in Musanze. Rosemary responded to our numerous emails and calls untill we came up with this perfect trip. Lubega our guide was very efficient and knowledgeable so we learnt quite a lot about Rwanda in just 2 days.
Ejoyed the gorilla experience, it is seemed very expensive but i and my friend, it was totally worth it even though 1 hour with them goes so fast!!!
Would do it again with this company !!!!!

A perfect trip! Great organization and team
My friend and I booked here since they offered us a great price and it was the BEST thing we could do!
We still had such an amazing time and in fact the low budget option made it even more authentic to us.
We experienced everything we were promised. We saw all the Big 5 and had some elephants super near the car! Overwhelming. The driver gave much effort in giving us a great trip.
The whole team was actually very kind.. it was almost like being with friends!
Absolutely recommendable
A weekend safari was organised by Hello Tanzania very well. The guide was excellent!
Communication with Hello Tanzania was perfect. Promised actions are executed quick and tour guide was excellent. The accommodation, food and car were very good.
Great Safari and Zanzibar experience
I was traveling for work to Kenya and decided to go for a short 1-week holiday to Tanzania to explore a new country. At first, i was not sure what to do in Tanzania, but obviously, when in Tanzania, one should do a Safari! So i contacted a few safari tour operators and got responses from 3-4 tour operators. It was the 'low' rainy season, so it was quite difficult to join a group. I was traveling alone, so the only option for me was a private safari. A few safari tour operators offered me interesting option of itineraries. But Tanzania Serengeti Adventure was the most responsive and flexible (in terms of itinerary and budget) amongst the others. I was in contact with Jordan and told him all the activities i wanted to do. He suggested an itinerary and managed to include Zanzibar as well. Compared to the other operators, the itinerary offered was by far the best, esp the accommodation options they proposed. I was basically moving from a hotel to another, everyday for the full week. My favorite was the Maramboi tented camp and also the Seacliff Zanzibar hotel.
Once my itinerary was confirmed, Iris contacted me to brief me on the logistics through skype. I met her upon arrival in Arusha and she gave me all the specifics and made sure i was well briefed.
My guide during the safari trip, Phillemon, was very knowledgeable, safe, kind and determined to make sure i had a great safari experience. I had a great safari and looking back at my pics, i wish i can come back soon!
In Zanzibar, my guide there - Mbwana, was also great. He was very knowledgeable and was a good storyteller when it came to Zanzibar's history. I really enjoyed the Stone town city tour. He was also very patient with me as i stopped so much during the tour to take lots of pics.
The last stop of my trip was at a beach resort recommended by both Jordan and Iris. And i must say, this resort is spectacular! Enjoyed my late afternoon, having a walk by the beach and watching the sunset. Then in the morning, i arranged an early horseback ride along the beach.
Overall, my solo trip to Tanzania was very fun and memorable. I got to do all the things i wanted and i thank Tanzania Serengeti Adventure for making it all happen.

Review about Kruger National Park by Jaco Beukman | www.go-nipper.com
South Africa's flagship with much to offer. Can be too crowded though, people speed on the roads and too many lodges and buildings inside the park - a future killer. Honor to recycling breakthroughs lately.
Review about Timbavati Nature Reserve by Massai_1 (Carsten M.)
Great accomodation, good sightings. A little bit more "bush" than the Sabi Sands.
