Stress free and a lot of fun
5/5

I planned a trip with a few friends around Cape Town and having all of us in one vehicle together with a knowledgeable driver such as Andrew really took a lot of the stress and guess work out of organising a holiday. Everything went smoothly and we all thoroughly enjoyed the adventure. Thank you Andrew :)

Cosmo is the best tour guide!!! ❤️
5/5

We went on a four day lodge safari with cosmo as our brilliant tour guide. He was super friendly and he helped us see lots of amazing animals. With the great help of Cosmo's eyes we did not only see the big five but also a lepard. The lodges were simple but nice and provided anything we needed to enjoy our safari. We highly recommend Cosmo as a tour guide and Wourld Tour Safari as a operator.

For a comfortable and life-changing safari experience, WildGlory tours is it! This company knows how to take care of you and show you Tanzania's many treasures. My review is long overdue as my husband and I went to Africa this month. Everyone we communicated with or met along the way (Angel was extremely reliable and pleasant) was knowledgeable, friendly, warm, and helpful, but none more so than our guide, Baraka. He is an amazing guide and human being. My husband and I wanted a one-of-a-kind safari and Baraka delivered. We saw everything we wanted to see (Big Five and more) because of his dedication, passion for animals, and love of nature. The camps were incredible (clean and beautiful) and the views breathtaking! I highly recommend choosing WildGlory for your next Serengeti adventure, you won't regret it.

Frank is not only a professional, but a very kind person as well. Always in a good mood and ready to help the tourist. He is Always in the background, but taking care of everything and everyone. And maybe Obvious: but he knows everything about the country, the people and the nature.

What a great and pleasant experience!
5/5

So, I always wanted to visit the Serengeti but priced were always off my budget. Until I found this opportunity with avocet. To be honest, I was worried with the quality of the Safari for that price, but let me be clear with this: it was great. Of course I bought the camping option and I'm used to it, but the great and personal treatments from Jeff from the moment we set foot in Tanzania until we left was amazing. Definitely coming back and will use their agency.

Totally Best Safari Experience
5/5

I found Marianne Birrell Safaris through an extensive research of a dozen companies. Based on other reviews, and a query to Marianne, I selected her company to organize our safaris. I can proudly say that the choice was one of the best decisions I ever made. She developed a program that exceeded our wildest dreams.

Marianne started the process with a series of questions designed to help her determine what we wanted to do. It worked beyond our imagination. We ended up with safaris in three different environments and a visit to Victoria Falls. We conducted safaris on a private game reserve in Sabi Sand, South Africa that allowed us to go off road and get within a few feet of animals to include big cats; a combination river cruise and land drives with in Chobe, Botswana; and a completely immersed in nature experience in the Okavango Delta, Botswana. In all cases, lodging at the camps was first rate, the services of each completely satisfactory (reviews written 13 and 14 May in Trip Advisor on each). In all cases, the coordination to get us from each location to the next was nearly flawless. We had a minor hiccup on one occasion, through no fault of her own, but Marianne jumped on it right away even while on a short holiday to get it resolved.

Marianne also patiently fielded hundreds of our questions so completely that we ran into no surprises during our 3 1/2 weeks in Africa. The information sheets she provided were also critical to our preparation. Bottom line, we were completely prepared for the safaris.

Her efforts did not end with just the safaris. We spent our first week in the Cape Town region. She arranged a terrific guest house and tours of two wineries for us along with providing a large number of tips on what to see and do in the region. Lastly, she arranged a guest house for us on returning back to Johannesburg before flying back home.

In essence, Marianne organized a vacation of a lifetime to near perfection. I would not hesitate to give anyone our strongest recommendation to use Marianne to plan and organize safaris in the southern parts of Africa.
