Amazing!
This company is great! They customized our trip to be exactly what we wanted and were incredibly responsive to email. Once we arrived, every detail of our trip was handled flawlessly. The accommodations were excellent, particularly Sarova Salt Lick in Tsavo--a must see place. This was truly a magical trip, and I have been recommending this company to all of my friends!

Smooth
Andy Saidy's response to our questions and continued communications made booking and payments easy. Both Parfuri Camp and The Outpost lived up to our expectations.

It was a great overall experience with a really nice driver
I think the trip was well organised. We had nice game drives and we saw a lot of wild animals. We had a great driver who was really nice as well. It was a great experience

Really nice 4days 3 nights safari for an honest price
I enjoyed our safari with aaa express.
Our driver (Julius) was very helpful friendly, good driver and a great animal spotter.
We got a lot of information about the animals, people,culture,..
We choose to visit the Masai. This part was not that interesting.
I would certainly recommend aaa express. Although they could work on their communication.

It Started in Africa Exceeded Our Expectations Once Again!!
A friend and I were on safari last year with It Started in Africa and we were so lucky to see The Big 5.
So this year when my sister said she would like to go on safari we went back to It Started in Africa.
They answered all my emails quickly, answered any questions I had and made our booking seem
quite effortless. Our guide, Deo, was perfect for us. He sure is knowledgeable, answered any and all
questions. We almost saw the Big 5 but the Rhino was a ways in the distance and was laying under a tree
in the shade with its back to us. It was still pretty cool. We saw so many cats this year and watched a
cheetah take down a Thompson Gazelle. The first night we stayed at Burunge Tented Camp, staff
were great, food was excellent and we loved the accommodations, second night at Serena Serengeti, cute
little gnome like rooms, felt like we were in The Shire'. Everything was great here as well and the third
night at Rhino Lodge was a great place to stay on our last night. There were zebra right out our front door
and elephants foraging in the mist while we were eating breakfast. We loved every minute of it and can't thank our guide Deo enough. He even played our silly travel games with us. We did have problems with
the truck but it was switched out for a new one early on second day on the way to the Serengeti gate.
Thumbs up It Started in Africa!! Thanks Deo!! 6 out of 5!

Trip of a life time
Firstly, we have been to Africa previously and all over the world in 35 years of travel, so we are not wide-eyed, easily impressed people. Our guides, Donatus and Elia, we're beyond knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, and fun. they went out of their way beyond belief to make our trip pleasurable and convenient. As for the schedule, it was perfect, mixing degree of fanciness of lodging. Food was great! And the animals of the country, I have trouble explaining how bre as the taking. Been all over the world and this trip ranks inbthe Top Ten, probably Top Five, of any trip

A wonderful holiday for the 2nd time with Tailor Made Safaris
For the 2nd time we went with Tailor Made Safari’s on Safari, this time through the North of South Africa (Kruger and so much more).
The organization of our holiday was excellent and Tailor Made Safari’s really took our personal whishes into account when arranging this trip.
Before we left, we received a complete travel pack that included a bound book of our trip, the navigation system (TomTom) and telephone with a South African sim card.
We choose to alternate between driving through the parks ourselves and going on game drives with a guide.
Again, the locations where we stayed the night were perfectly in order.
Angela and Nick, thank you for organizing this wonderful holiday.

Had an amazing time
I had an amazing time on the 3-day safari to Murchison Falls. Everything was very well organized and the guides were very kind. The accommodations were not very luxurious, but the basics (cold shower, toilet, electricity, mosquito nets, etc.) were there.
