10 day Masai Mara,Serengeti etc
As a couple we booked with Gosheni online.We travelled with a guide (Erasto) We had a truly wonderful time.The camps,unlimited kms Erastos knowlegde of the wildlife and great personality made this a trip of a lifetime.The camps and other accommodation were of a high standard.The landcruiser was very comfortable with a cool box where were provided with cold water,soft drinks,and wine with our lunch if desired.Peter was easy to communicate with to design a tailored safari for us.We like that the company is Tanzania owned.When talking to people travelling with other companies they told us that they had to pay for water after they had drunk there 500 ml provided bottle and they were on limited kms.When comparing prices we really had the better deal.I would recommend Gosheni to anyone wishing to have a special safari they really deliver a great service.

Unique experience in Murchison Falls
This is a beautiful park, which is crossed by the River Nile. There are lots of wild animals and and an abundance of birds. The boat trip on the Nile, towards the Falls is unforgettable.

Beautiful Kiliminjaro overlooking a small but wildlife-rich National Park teeming with beasts.
My road research proved correct as there is only one road from Nairobi to Amboseli and that is the C103 off the A109 Mombasa Road. It was a smooth tarmac road offering fantastic views of the South Rift Valley. Amboseli itself is a compact park - easy to navigate and drive around - and it was the first of Kenya's game parks to actually offer me an illustrated map, which was really useful.
Barely through the gate and you see wildebeest and ostrich...then giraffe, impala and then a herd of elephants. I had a pass for 48 hours and the first day I drove one loop around the park concentrating on the animals - as Mount Kilimanjaro was typically shrouded in cloud for the day. There is usually only an hour at dawn and an hour at dusk when the peak is visible. True enough, the following morning it was clear at 6am but clouded over shortly after. On my third day of the trip, things were delightfully different. The peak stayed could-free until 8:30am which allowed me to re-enter the park and take some coveted photographs of wildlife and mountain in harmony. This was definitely the highlight of the trip. Other Kenya parks are flat but Amboseli serves up Mount Kilimanjaro which actually ticks many travellers' life-ling ambitions - mine included.
The accommodation, AA Lodge, was perfect - self-contained chalet / bandas are very private and quiet. It didn't matter to me that I was outside of the Park as my resident Park fee was valid for 48 hrs. The pool was essential; it was so dry and hot that the dip in the water was a necessity. There were very few guests and the food was plain but the service was faultless. Such friendly staff.

Amazing Experiance
I spend 3 Days in Serengeti to discover the Wildlife. It's amazing, so see this animals that close. We had a great driver and he explane all the things happen in de Serengeti. We truly can recommend the Serengeti as one of the best Destination for Safari.

Fantastic trip
Have just returned from a two week trip to Johannesburg, Kruger Park, Victoria Falls and Cape Town and was very impressed with the service provided by Kruger Park Travel.
Prior to the trip Mike and Kylie were quick and helpful when responding to all our queries, whilst the tour itself was very well organised in terms of airport transfers etc.
The four hotels we stayed in were also very good and all the activities included in the tour were great - we couldn't have had a more enjoyable time!

From a wow, to a great to a I can't believe it!
I was part of a group so wasn't part of the original communication but right from the 'front door' where we were greeted by a herd of elephants to the 4 poster beds it was an experience I will never forget!
Thank you so much….

Wonderful experience! Wonderful safari!
I just finished my safari with Armadillo Overland Safari (Full House) in the beautiful Kruger National Park. My expectations for this 4 day-3 night safari were high. I have to say that my expectations were exceeded. This safari was absolutely phenomenal! I don’t even know where to start.
Well, I will start by the guide/driver/cook, Morris.
He provided us with a remarkable service and did everything possible to make our safari an unforgettable experience!
I was very impressed with his personal knowledge of this particular ecosystem and the wildlife of the Kruger Park. Obviously, Morris knows this area like the back of his hand. He knew not only the name every single animal, bird and even tree we saw, but also much more information about them. He answered all our questions.
Morris is also a great spotter! While driving, he was able to spot everything, even the smallest creature, even if it was the same color as the grass or the threes.
He was so resourceful too! I mentioned that my suitcase was ruined because the zipper was broken. We went for night game and when I returned, he had fixed it!
I have to say that the vehicle is amazing! It was so comfortable and everything was carefully designed. It was high which make it easy to see the animals. We had Wi-Fi, refrigerators and a freezer, a bathroom and plenty of space to put all our stuff. The company took care of everything for us (for example we were provided with blankets, with binoculars, etc.).
The experience of being in this wild and beautiful Kruger National Park, one of the largest game reserves in Africa and following trails in areas of wilderness that seemed almost untouched by humans was absolutely fascinating. We not only saw the Big Five, but so many more animals and birds! I just can believe how many animals and birds we saw!
We had a sublime safari!
I want to add that the panoramic Route we followed the first day (including Blyde River Canyon, God's Window, the Mac Falls etc.) was an excellent inclusion. We were able to stop and take as much time we needed to admire the magnificent many views. Morris took us to several best spots. It seems that he knew them all!
Many thanks to Chris (owner) and Morris (guide/driver/cook) for this wonderful experience!
I really recommend this company to anyone.

perfect spontaneous trip to Tanzania
I had a spontaneous trip to Tanzania for 13 days. Aardvark Expeditions had only 3 days to plan this journey and to respect my personal wishes. The result: A perfect trip with a mix of Safari, history and culture. I had safaris in: Tarangire, Lake Manyara, 2 days Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater and Arusha national park. And I've seen the big five and many more different animals in a kind, that I never expected to see. I had also a stop at the Olduvai gorge, Stoped at a Massai village and had different walks around Arusha and Kilimanjaro. I stood in some very nice places ovbernight. Especially serengeti Katikati, Sangaiwe tended camp and the destination 3 degrees in Arusha. I want to thank my driver Amani, a perfect gamedriver and a very kind person, Mr. Philemon who planed this all out for me and the Team of the destination 3 degrees to make me feel at home in Tanzania. And I'll sure come back to Tanzania with Aardvark.

Amazing trip made possible by Dana East Africa Safaris!
Daniel's attention to detail, exceptional planing, and ability to add just the right personal touches made this trip so memorable for my family and I. I can honestly not recommend his services enough!
