Superb budget safari experience with professional and caring staff.
We had a six day tented safari visiting, in order, Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. Perfect arrangement for our family safari (kids 11 and 13.) Guide and cook was the perfect team to maximize our adventure and adapt to our needs and requests. Food surprisingly varied and well made considering the conditions. Guide did all in his power to show us everything. And we did! The car and tents were old but functional. Best regards to Stanley and Sokofo from the Bendz family!

The trip of a lifetime - so much more than I expected!
This trip turned out so well that I can hardly praise it enough! Pre-trip communication was good, and all my questions were answered promptly. The tour itself was wonderful, due in large part to our guide, Charles. Charles was knowledgable, friendly, and endlessly patient, and I highly recommend him. The hotels were comfortable, and the food was good. I hadn't expected to see quite so many animals - I expect Charles knew just where to find them! Some of the things which made it so enjoyable were just luck: we had a very congenial group, and the weather was beautiful. Still, if I go to Africa again, I will choose Odyssey, and will ask for Charles.

Amazing wildlife, great lodges and beautiful landscape
We had a self drive from Windhoek and our main reason for visiting was the prolific wildlife. Our first stop was an overnight stay in 'Olive Grove'. A really small boutique hotel, with lovely attention to detail and great food. Our next stop was Hoodia Desert Lodge in Sesriem to visit the world famous dunes. The lodge was beautiful and each chalet has air-con - a blessing in the scorching heat. The main lodge area was beautifully furnished and the manager and staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The food was also very good. We took an early morning trip to the dunes and our guide spotted and showed us stuff we never would've noticed. The walk to the top of Big Mama dune was hard work (for me), especially in 100 + degree heat. The highlight of this trip for me was seeing Dead Vlei - with black burnt trees against an orange background and a cloudless blue sky. This was a photographers dream. We then drove to Erindi private reserve and stayed in Traders Lodge. This is quite a large busy lodge, but the views from the lounge overlooking the waterhole was amazing. We were greeted on arrival by Wild dogs in camp. The evening viewing from camp was non stop from elephants, hippos, zebra, giraffes, wildebeest and Eland, all visiting the waterhole over the course of the evening. Our room overlooked the small waterhole at the rear of the lodge and lions and rhino came in the dead of night (caught with a remote camera). The game drives although good, are in my opinion a bit too organised. We were also unfortunate to have a vehicle that broke down twice! Unfortunately, they hadn't fixed the problem from the previous drive, and so we broke down again the next day. It was disappointing as this meant we missed most of our sundowner, as we were waiting for another vehicle to come and pick us up. The animals are tracked by GPS, and so you are nearly guaranteed of seeing what you want, it felt more like a safari park than an african safari. From here we went on to Etosha for 6 nights. Our first stop was Okaukeujo where we had booked a premier waterside chalet (definitely worth the extra), as you are right next to the waterhole and can sit out all night watching the game come and go. We had an amazing experience with elephants staying from early evening to sunset and beyond, just during themselves and bathing and playing. The trumpeting was an experience never to be forgotten. The chalet was clean and modern. The restaurant is average but the food could be better - however, you go to Okaukeujo for wildlife not a gourmet meal. Our second stop was Onguma Reserve, just out side Etosha. A nice camp which felt like an oasis compared to the dry dusty plains of Etosha. We had one evening game drive in the Onguma reserve which was a little quiet compared to Etosha. The guides are excellent and vehicles comfortable. The waterhole within the reserve was quiet when we visited. We saw a few giraffe and some waterbuck. Our next stay was in Anderssons Camp, again just outside the park. A nice old camp with a vibrant evening waterhole, where Rhino seem to visit every night - Their camp side is great, you are literally within feet of the many animals that go to drink there. We had one game drive within Onguma and saw the resident lions and rhino. We opted to self drive in Etosha and the waterholes are vibrant and teeming with animals. This was our second visit to Etosha and we were concerned we would be disappointed after having a great safari previously - but we were not disappointed and will visit again.

Review about Namibia by paulafrenchp
Wildlife is prolific in the dry season, but not so good for birders. I would recommend Namibia as a destination and it is a safe place to visit - driving there is very good and the roads (mainly) are in excellent condition

Safari Tours is a professional agency and they take pride in providing outstanding customer service.
Safari Tours went above and beyond our expectations to make our trip super exciting. Their service is reliable, and the safari vehicle was comfortable and impeccably clean. We enjoyed everything about our trip. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the wild life in the Masaai Mara, as well as, Lake Nakuru National Park. Will this company again in the future. Money well spent!

Wonderful Trip to South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana with Southern African Tours
I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana. Craig and Catherine from Southern African Tours were very professional, caring and organised a great trip for my friend and me to this area. We were met at the airport by their professional and personable representative, Graham who accompanied us during our time in South Africa. Highlights of this trip were the many game drives to see quite a variety of animal life - zebras, lions, giraffes, elephants, hippos, rhinos, baboons, crocs, impalas, wild dogs and so many different species of birds. Many more animals were observed, too numerous to mention at this time.
I was very pleased with my trip organized by Southern African Tours and heartily recommend them for their caring and commitment to ensure a carefree and pleasurable tour.
