Great safari !
The combination of the friendly staffs and spirit of Africa and just being in the safari mode was wonderful and trumps all the small quibbles. Seeing a leopard mother and her cub playing a small distance away and seeing a cheetah close up in the wild are hard experiences to match. We had a Trully fabulous experience overall.
Amazing honeymoon
Our honeymoon was incredible! It was beyond our wildest dreams. Thank you so much.

Solo female traveler, amazing trip!
My Kilimanjaro trip was completely spontaneous and I reached out to a few different expedition companies to see if they had any last minute trek openings. Amanda at African Scenic was, by far, the most pleasant person I have ever done travel arrangements with. She was extremely accommodating, and gave me the confidence I needed to book an East African adventure as a solo female traveler. Ramson was my lead guide and he was so professional, warm and intelligent. The porters were lovely and very friendly. I felt very safe at all times and I would recommend this company to anyone. We got to see the other companies while at the camps and it was noticeable how superior African Scenic was. I hope to return one day to Ramson, Amanda, and the rest of the team.

High Marks
Africa Odyssey has arranged 3 safaris for me and everything has been flawless. In 2012, AO arranged a family trip for 13 of us to the Serengeti and the Selous. In 2013, AO arranged a complex trip for my wife and me which included the gorillas in the Virungas, and the seldom visited Tanzania parks - Katavi, Mahale Mountains (for the chimps) and Ruaha. In August 2015, AO did a trip for another couple and us which included Botswana, Vic Falls, Zambia (S Luangwa) and Cape Town. I like the fact that AO does not push package tours, but helps you arrange where you want to you and how long your stays are. Everything can be customized and that's a requirement for me. All arrangements AO has made for me have been flawless and I recommend AO to anyone I know who wants to visit East or Southern Africa.
Excelent team
It seen so easy to find predators with Tony , what a good hunter for our photographs , every one know Tony in all the sites, no doubt, it's because he is the best.

Some additions to my earlier review
In my earlier review I forgot to mention our early morning bush walk guide Rex.. He was absolutely great.. Experienced, knowledgable and full of fun to be with...another point though my typing mistake...it was 250 rand extra and not 25 for the entry fee in the Balule gate...

Mafia Island for whale shark safari
All was good - our agent was receptive to our requirements and recommended a simple but very comfortable hotel, Meremeta Lodge. We were well looked after, and our whale shark safari was well organised. There were bikes we could use to go to the nearby beach, and after Nairobi, it was a real pleasure to be able to walk safely. The food was good. I would recommend our experience to anyone interested in whale shark watching

We think that what you organiced about our safari was that we hoped to get
We find that the 10 days together with our guide Jimmy from Wilderness Safaris was so well organiced. The tent camps in Kulala and Damara Land was so exiting to stay in and the staff in the camps treated us so well with theirs lovely meals out in the wilderness. Our guide Jimmy was so informative about Namibias biology, geology,historie, and the fight for independence And we saw a lot. The stay in Hansa Hotel was also very fine and a nice big contrast to the camps. Andersons camp , Ongava Game Park and Etosha was very fine too, only 1 day to short we think. 11 days would have been better then we could have enjoyed the area around the camp better.
