Best Experience !!!
We booked our honeymoon through Australken we did a safari and a beach holiday in Mombasa. We have nothing but praise for Zippy and her team for the effort she put in as we kept on changing our safari dates.
Our guide Symon was the best, so educative about the wildlife and the entire country. Our highlight was in Masai Mara at Osero Camp as we got a good honeymoon suite and a complimentary bush diner . We definitely recommend this company and if we return we will use them again.

Very special day at Lake Tanganyika and Gombe NP
I really enjoyed my 1 day trip to Gombe National Park and Ujiji. Although I had very limited time (less than 2 days) in Kigoma and had arrived late from a 13-14 hour journey from Mwanza the day before, it was the right decision to choose the Gombe day trip. I was impressed that everything was well co-ordinated - from the car pick up, to the boatman (Baraco?), to the guide at Gombe NP, and the driver and guide for the very short but informative visit to the Livingstone museum at Ujiji. I thoroughly enjoyed the sights and sounds along Lake Tanganyika and will never forget my time swimming in the lake. I also fondly remember watching the chimps and enjoying the panoramic view at Jane's peak in Gombe NP. The guide gave me full liberty of time at Gombe. The pace was unhurried. I should have realised I was taking a bit too much time and I requested to expedite the visit to Ujiji on my way back. This the driver did. The guide at the Livingstone museum was knowledgable. And it was great that the driver managed to get me back to Kigoma Hilltop Hotel just in time for a most exquisite sunset over Lake Tanganyika.
In summary, a most unforgettable day. Thank you.

Perfect experience
We visited Masai Mara in June 2017 and returned home with fantastic memories.
First of all our driver John was one of the main reasons for our successful trip. Our trip started with a timely pick-up from the hotel. During the trip to Masai Mara and the safari game drives John have been very informative and told us of the fun experiences he had on other game drives, about the animals and Africa in general. He was great at spotting the animals, as well as using walkies to get notified of where the animals were, and racing through Masai Mara to spot them. We were lucky to see all of the big 5 animals and take plenty of pictures. Thank you John! :)
Apart from that we stayed at the great camp, Ashnil Mara. The camp was situated at the heart of Masai Mara, so the game drives started as soon as we drove out of the camp. The camp is located by the Mara river, where we could watch the animals come by. We lived in luxurious tents, which were both beautiful and comfy. The food was great and plenty. In the evenings we could relax outside by the fire and listen to the hippo noises in the Mara river.

All We Could Hope For in Livingstone!
Joseph Moyo was all we could hope for and more in planning and executing our leisure travel. We brought a group of 23 volunteers with us to Zambia to do humanitarian work in Lusaka. Following our work, we planned 4 days in Livingstone for leisure travel. Never having been to Livingstone we looked for someone to guide us as we planned activities. After reading reviews, we settled on African Coast Travel and Tours. Joseph was prompt at responding and always a step ahead of us. We did a jaw dropping tour of Victoria Falls! We saw the falls from both the Zambia and Zimbabwe side, they were spectacular!!!! That evening we were whisked of on a Sunset Cruise along the Zambezi River, it was perfect. The second day we headed to Chobe National Park. We spent the day in Botswana and Zambia. Lunch was amazing at the Chobe Safari Lodge. It was a perfect day, we saw many animals and had excellent guides. Day 3 included a trip to Mukuni Village, Livingstone Museum, and taking in the Maramba Market. That afternoon and Day 4 prior to our departure, Joseph arranged everyone in the groups individual activities including a Lion Walk, Bungee Jumping, Micro Flights, Elephant Safari and much more. We loved every minute of our time with Joseph and his team. They were amazing!

Another amazing Murchison trip
This was my third trip to Murchison Falls with Twah and his team. It was the best experience yet (each has been incredible). It was a comfortable ride from Kampala to Murchison. The evening game drive was incredible. The drivers use their personal experiences and do a great job communicating with each other and the park staff to make sure you get to experience all that Murchison has to offer. I think this year we saw almost every possible animal, including lionesses on the hunt an a large python. Murchison is one of my favorite places on earth and I wouldn't visit with anyone other than Wild Jungle Trials.

since de begining excellente
Every thing was very good, since the atencion of giving prices with Mr. Simmon until
going there, the hotels the food the gide the ca every thing excelent.
For me the only thing, to change the information was tha the climp de hike of Kilimanjaro
it was not easy there ae 9 km to go up and then 9 to go down the same day
so you need certain clothes shoes and information about it. That is not so easy as you mention

Good value safari experience with knowledgeable guide. Richard (owner) was extremely helpful too!
World tours and safaris provided us with a great experience - 4 days and 3 nights of safari in lake manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. The guide we had spoke good English and was knowledgable about the different animals. On our return to Arusha, Richard was very helpful putting us in touch with another safari company in Kenya where we continued our trip. Was very easy to book and pay for from the UK in advance. Would definitely recommend as we have had a very smooth and memorable experience!

Awesome!
We booked a trip through Wild Destinations when we had family visiting us in Kenya. Wild Destinations was quick from the start in outlining all of our options in multiple price buckets. During the trip, we didn't worry about a thing. Wild Destinations had already communicated with all the lodging / airlines to make sure everything was set. This made for such an amazing vacation! Will definitely be using Wild Destinations again!

The most beautiful safari experience imaginable!
We were so excited to do this safari. We booked it two or three months in advance and the communication and set up was so easy. Bariki responded quickly and took care of my dietary restrictions and set up a place for us to stay in Arusha. He even picked us up from the airport! The safari itself was beautiful and our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the animals and culture and area. He never made us feel rushed and we really enjoyed Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro caldera. The lodge we stayed at was beautiful and the whole experience was among the best in our travels. We would highly recommend feline safaris for their amazing service and the whole atmosphere they create around your trip! Go do it!
