Plenty of animals and to see the great migration was awesome! Never tought there were so many animals :). Alex our guide was like a friend and his knowledgment of the animals and the terrain was out of this world. I just have to thank to It started in Africa team from they promptiness since i send the first email to when i arrived home :).

Memorable! Fascinating! Life changing! Thrilling! Perfection!
I had the most positive experience with Mable vanderMuelen, Lauren and Philip of Journey Beyond!
The itinerary they planned for me was flawless.
This trip was everything we wanted and from the moment we arrived the entire journey including flights, transfers to the lodges and tours were well coordinated.
The accomodations were luxurious, the food outstanding and the game viewing was indescribable.
Our entire trip from Botswana to Zambia to South Africa was way beyond our expectations.

Go2Africa will help you organise the holiday of a lifetime.
We travelled to South Africa with our 16 year old grandson for a special birthday treat. We discovered Go2Africa quite by accident and were so glad we did. Our dealings with Ashley at Go2Africa were excellent. All our queries were answered promptly. The overall cost of the tour that we put together was very good when compared with identical quotes from travel agents in Australia. Nothing went wrong on the whole trip - drivers for our private transfers were waiting to collect us from airports and hotels on time, (although we had to change our transfer time from Tau Game Lodge when we realised we would not get to the airport on time). The safari lodges chosen were fantastic! Pondoro had the most amazing food, Kapama Southern had the most amazing accommodation - would highly recommend the luxury family suites, and at Tau the rooms overlooked the waterhole (very close) and we had amazing sightings of wildlife. They even upgraded our grandson to his own room. All three lodges had excellent food, rooms, staff and game drives. The family room at Cascades, Sun City was probably the biggest disappointment. The room was smaller than the bathroom in our suite at Kapama! Also the water park at Sun City is pretty tame compared with water parks in Australia. However we played golf on 2 days on the Gary Player course, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The cost of a private lesson from the caddies was incredibly inexpensive and our grandson's golf improved a great deal. We would highly recommend Go2Africa to any travellers wanting to plan their South African holiday.
Tanzania proved me that real wildlife is still possible to be experienced in this threatened world!
Luck, good karma, faith... I don't know what it was and I truly don't care.
To be able to see close up the big five and the little five during the same safari is no easy and in some cases not very likely.
I want to think that it was my true conviction that with good intensions, positive energy and vibe to nature everything is possible. And the proof is the 10 pics I have of this threatened, magnificent and extraordinary beautiful inhabitants of our planet in this corner of Africa: lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard and white rhino also known as the Big Five, and elephant shrew, buffalo weaver, leopard tortoise, lionant and the rhino beetle known as the Little Five.

A wonderful experience
My daughters and I are just back from a safari with Safari Infinity that fulfilled all our expectations--and then some. Communications with Simon, Lucia, and Augustin were great in the planning stage, and the trip far into the Serengeti with our very knowledgeable guide Erick was a delight. We saw so many animals and learned so much about them from him. And he made us feel safe at all times! Accommodations were excellent everywhere--in Tarangire, Ngorogoro, and the central and northern Serengeti. When we returned to Arusha on our last day, it was pleasure to meet with Simon and Lucia for a "debriefing." Hearty applause to them and their team for their meticulous attention to every detail of our trip!

Amazing Journey with Safari King Travel
What an amazing experience for my family with Safari King Travel and Anicet Josh! Cannot say enough great things about the way we were treated and the hospitality extended while on our journey and even during the booking process. Anicet truly embraced us as his family and made each day a special event, right down to a surprise catered lunch out in the game preserve. I emphatically recommend Safari King Travel to anyone headed to Tanzania and the continent of Africa!

Professional, informed, knowledgible, reliable and organised safari operator
We had the most amazing experience with Wild Wings Safaris. They gave us excellent service, found us the best deals and took care of all our needs. We have used them before and will continue to use them

Private tour - Nairobi to Mombasa
Booked a last minute tour for my husband and I with KET the week before Christmas 2012. Paul was brief but responsive through the booking and planning phase. Our guide Richard was fantastic. Very engaged, always smiling, and he tried very hard to find us big game. For the cost we paid, the accommodations and food were an amazing deal - much more luxurious than expected. We would book with them again in a heartbeat - and of course we would ask for Richard again!

Perfect budget safari
We are a couple (33 and 29 years old) and checked a lot of safari operators before we booked ours. Our choice went to Safari Multiways for many reasons but first of all, due to the personnalisation and customisation of our safari.
Before going to Tanzania, we contacted several times the manager of Safari Multiways (Romeo) and asked so many questions, but he always answered (quite fast) professionnaly and tried to adapt our safari program according to our wishes. At the end we got an offer for 5 days / 4 nights (what we wanted) completely fitting to our expectations.
We have been to Manyara national park, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater (and slept in Panorama Camp, Niani Camp, Lobo camp and Simba camp).
The company Safari Multiways is a small, private owned company which we wanted to support, rather than a big one.
The safari price was including:
- all entrances to the national parks ans conservation areas
- all meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) done by the cook who was with us during the complete safari, and who prepared so good typical and local food
- the material for camping: tent, matress, pillows (but we would recommand to take your own sleeping bags),
- the english-spoking guide for the complete safari, who knew all best places to observ the animals, and could explain us so many things
- the transfer to Kilimanjaro International Airport to the hotel of our choice in Arusha.
We had a really great time, saw a lot of animals (inclusive the big 5!) thanks to our experienced guide and within the pop-up rooftop of the car. We had enough place in the car for our luggage and all the stuff for camping. We definitely recommand Safari Multiways for an unique adventure!
PS: October is the low touristical season in Tanzania, and it was perfect because of not too many cars in the parks
