The perfect honeymoon!
5/5

Earlier this month we went on our 10 days African honeymoon organized by Roho Ya Chui. We visited Botswana (Chobe), Zambia (Victoria Falls) and South Africa (Kirkman Kamp). Ute did an outstanding job at organizing everything for us, completely lived up to our expectations . It was absolutely perfect. She's very professional and goes the extra mile to understand what exactly is what you want on your trip to make sure you get that at a minimum. Communication was swift, replies to emails happened in less than 24 hours. Detailed itinerary is given to you so you know exactly what's happening during your trip. All locations we visited were fantastic. In summary, it was the perfect African adventure!

Such an incredible experience
5/5

This was an incredible experience for both of us, and we couldn't be any more happy with our Safari. We were on a little bit of a budget for our particular Safari, and what Eastern Sun was able to do with the budget we gave them far exceeded our expectations. The hotels were very nice, the food along the way was delicious, and all equipment including the car was well above standard. I would also like to say that Mercy was incredible in handling the millions of questions I had before we even got to Tanzania and was very quick with all of the changes I threw at her. Our guide Richard was incredible and had incredible eyes for spotting wildlife I never would have seen. He had very good knowledge of all the parks an answered our questions very well. He was also very enjoyable to be around and to stay with for the five days. The only negative about our Safari was a small confusion or error about the final payment. Everything was completely legitimate, however, there was a mistake on the part of Eastern Sun that caused a bit of a scramble towards the end of our Safari. However everything was handled in the end. It was just s shame to leave on a sour note. But other than that I couldn't recommend the Safari more and you will be definitely happy with what they put together for you

The perfect trip for South African wineries and for a real safari tour
5/5

Darren is a very competent, prepared and professional person: he helped us in every moment we needed assistance and information about our trip (during the preparation of the travel and all over our stay in South Africa).
As regards our visits to the wineries (Constantia, Durbanville, Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek) the wine specialist of Compass Odyssey was very nice; she has fulfilled all our needs. As a matter of fact, our travel across the South African wineries was great, even we have considered that the experience has got over and overcome all our expectations. Surely, an experience to repeat, sooner or later.
As concerns our safari, Darren has made a reservation in a tented camp in which we have lived to the best the experience of a real South African safari. Our ranger has guided us brilliantly to see all the animals expected to encounter (we have only missed the lion), maybe another reason to come back to South Africa in the future, but only by making a travel organized with Compass Odyssey.
In conclusion, I think that Compass Odyssey is, by far, one of the best travel agencies for organizing safaris and trip to South African winelands and Darren is a very reliable and professional person.

We did the Safari to the Mikumi Nationalpark in three days. One day driving to the Park, one day park and one day going back. We had such a nice driver and also the Guide was super. :) The guest House which was included was super. So all in all it is really Worth it to do it and we really can recommend it to others.

6-day Kilimanjaro route & 6-day Safari...the most unforgettable and amazing experiences of my life!
5/5

Me and my friend Cathy showed up at Kilimanjaro Grand Hostel with the idea of looking for and compare tour operators to do the Lemosho route in Kilimanjaro, and our dreamed-since-childhood safari. After meeting Mandela, the owner of the hostel, and Mohamed, the manager of Mega Adventures, we were convinced that they were the perfect people to trust and to arrange our big adventures with them. Not only they devote their lives to offer the most wonderful experience ever, but also part of the benefits that they obtain are dedicated to Komboa organization, founded by Mandela. This was one of the main reasons to choose our trek and safari with them. Also, they gave us such confidence that we didn't even look for another option.

We started with the trek, and got the best possible guides ever, Mathey and Roy, probably two of the most experienced people at Kilimanjaro. The main guide, Mathey, has summited more than 400 times! They, and the rest of the team (cook and porters) took care of us as if we were family. Even if we couldn't have lunch or dinner all together, we enjoyed the interaction that we had with all the team. Thanks to them we achieved our goal with no problem! Initially we were shocked by the luxury at the mountain, that we were not expecting at all, like the amazingly elaborated food that we got every day.

After coming back from Kili, we started our 6-day safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro), with Ally as driver and guide, and Massawe as cook. If we thought that the food at Kili was good, we had no words to describe the cuisine of Massawe! He really has a talent! And Ally is a wonderful guide, and his skills driving are beyond expectations. Everything was perfectly organized! We had two walking safaris that were amazing, we enjoyed tea around a campfire in Tarangire, we camped in Lobo (an astonishing location at Serengeti), we saw the gnus crossing the Mara river in the border with Kenya, we saw hundreds of animals...it felt like a dream come true! Everything was just perfect and beautiful. And on top of this great experience, what I also took back home was the certainty that I have now good friends in Moshi (Mandela, Silvia, Mohamed, Ally...) that I'm looking forward to seeing again!

Communication very nice and fast..service verygood...the road for safari very narrow it takes a long time if the company tours in tanzania write a requirment to the government and sign it by all to help the tourists to do it many time and saving the time to do visit another places which is increase the national income

Super safari!
5/5

Desiree is your contact person. They can arrange everything for you. Specify what you want and can do.
Her partner Fay does the safari tour. He is communicative very good and really a walking encyclopedia!
Not only does he have knowledge of the "big five" but also all birds, insects and plants.
Unbelievable how fast he sees everything. He gets the best out of your safari.
They do this for years and this experience is evident in the result.
