Fantastic safari, everything perfect organised!
This was our second safari with Makasa and again we had a fantastic trip. Thank you Selma for the pleasant contact and your good suggestions for our trip. The tented camps in the Serengeti were a great experience. Also many thanks to Humphrey, our driver/guide. With him we saw the wildebeast crossing and two Leopards mating. We will never forget it. We can recommend Makasa to everyone!

Amazing experience, outstanding staff & service!
We had an amazing, trip of a lifetime through Barafu Tours! We did both the Kilimanjaro trek and the safari and both were outstanding!!! It was very important for us to book our trip through a locally owned tour company, nevertheless, we were a bit nervous. After speaking with Chance, I was reassured we would be in good hands, but once we got there I realized we were in excellent hands.
We hiked on 6 day Machame route and reached the top due to our outstanding guides, Mohammed and Juma, who were 100% dedicated at all times to making sure we would succeed and were committed above and beyond to our safety. Thanks to Abbas, the stomach engineer, we were very well fed and fueled at all times, and I very very much appreciate the extra mile they went especially to make sure I had plenty to eat (I'm a vegan). The porters gave us top-notch service, made us feel at home at each stop along the way and went the extra mile to lift out spirits. Shout outs to Pray, our server, who always put a smile on my face, and to Amiri, who saved me going down the mountain. We had the BEST crew!!! The attentive, personal support and the warm dedication was really what made the trek and our summit so memorable.
We originally had booked a 7 day trek, but we finished Kili in 6 days, so when we got back from the trek, Chance was awesome and made last minute arrangements for us to have a super cool day in Moshi where we had a cool coffee-making experience/tour and swam in really sweet waterfalls.
Our safari was outstanding as well - Cippy, our guide, is the man! We saw the Big Five - rhinos, elephants, lions, cheetahs, and buffalo, all on our first 2 hours at Serengeti. He was always making sure we got the photos we needed, finding for us the local banana beer we discovered 8-), knowing exactly where to spot the big cats and the other animals, and overall had a great playlist of Swahili rap/reggae during the jeep rides. Each park has its unique view and wildlife, and Cippy made sure we made the most out of each day. For accommodations, Chance hooked us up with really luxurious spots to sleep at where we immensely enjoyed our nights.
Overall, we are super super glad we booked through Barafu and recommend our trip to all our friends and family. We couldn't have asked a better experience! If I could give 10 stars here, I would!

Trip of a lifetime
Our safari with Nature Travel Namibia exceeded all expectations from booking right through to the experience itself. We had a very personal service when booking with lots of silly questions answered quickly and fully. We did the Namibia, Botswana, Victoria Falls safari and it was excellent from start to finish.
Our guide, Jakes, knowledge, expertise and patience was unbeatable. He took care of all the arrangements and looked after us for the whole of the Namibian part of the tour. He was excellent at finding and spotting wildlife and taught us so much. The group was very small and personal, just myself and my adult daughter and 3 other ladies. As 2 women travelling alone safety was an issue of us but we felt totally safe at all times.
Our guide couldn't accompany us over the border to Botswana and while we missed him and all he did for us all the transfers were smooth and without problems.
The Namibian part of the trip was the best for us with wonderful views of animals including lions on a kill, elephants, zebra, giraffe, hippos, crocodile and lots of different antelope and beautiful birds, some of the encounters up really close. Chobe in Botswana was fantastic in terms of wildlife and landscape but was spoiled for us a bit by being so crowded, especially compared to Etosha and Caprivi. But Victoria Falls was a fantastic ending and even with low water levels was spectacular.
The accommodation was all excellent, with wonderful service, food and entertainment - and some great gift shops!
All in all a fantastic trip, and we would definitely recommend Nature Travel Namibia to anyone looking for the perfect safari - you wont be disappointed.

it was an once in a life time experiance
i would highly recommend this company The staff were very polite and courteous and eager to please with all requests to find animals on safaris The choice of accommodation was excellent and food Vehicles could have been of a later model My only complaint is that as a female travelling on her own that you have a card displaying the company name to identify and not a verbal phone message at the airport as it can be very daunting in a strange country
