"We have just returned from our trip, and we had a fantastic time. Our guide, Apollo, was very good – he took us straight to all the animals. Sometimes we couldn’t see them until he showed us. The lodges and tented lodges were very good, and we were surprised by how luxurious they were. The food was up to a very high standard, including the packed lunches. I would like to thank you for a perfect safari, and we will be using this operator again."

"This was a wonderful experience for my first time in Africa! Jane helped me customize the tour, and the accommodations were superb. Simon, the safari guide, was 'simply the best' at being at the right time and right place for game viewing and for his informative comments and knowledge of the area."

The safari was fantastic – the best holiday I’ve ever experienced. Our guide was informative and taught Swahili along the way. The food at camps was delicious.

"The operator was thoroughly professional and helpful in every way with our pre-trip planning and the tour experience itself. Mwanaid was very easy to work with and showed a great facility with kids once we were in Tanzania. Huruma and Anton, our drivers and safari guides, were also great with the kids, and we felt very safe in the vehicles with them. Our guides during the mountain climb were patient, jovial, and clearly interested in our welfare. We had a small hitch with one part of our plan, but given that we were a group of 11 (including school-age kids) and that we had to change our schedule a month before the trip, it was impressive that everything else was flawless. Indeed, each time we needed to clarify something, the staff were quick to address the issue, even coming to the hotel to sort things out. We are grateful to the entire staff for their assistance and expertise in coordinating our trip, and we can recommend them to anyone else who would like to arrange a holiday to Tanzania."

"The safari organized for our yearly mother-daughter bonding trip was just superb! The operator met all our needs and requests. Best of all, we had a super driver/guide who made us feel safe and answered all our questions. This journey through Kenya was a lifelong fantasy come true. Thanks to all for answering our emails rapidly."

"Southern Circuit: This eleven-day tour was most successful. The program was altered to suit us, as arranged before booking. We traveled as a couple with a driver-guide and a guide who was also the cook. We appreciated the African dishes he made. The parks were amazing, and the animals were most interesting. The roads were very rough, but the driving was handled with great care. The camping was mixed, but all accommodations were adequate. One night spent on a campsite where we were the only occupants was particularly memorable."

"We decided to organize our journey to Africa via this operator. We did the order via the internet, and because this was our first time traveling to Africa, we were a little curious. We started with some questions to the company, and during the planning, we exchanged a lot of emails. The company was serious, knowledgeable, and offered a good price. They gave us relevant information about everything we asked. We experienced that the company had very good guides who were professional and well-informed. The Kilimanjaro trip and the safari were both well-organized. Everything was planned to our best. We were especially impressed by the food during the Kilimanjaro trip, considering the conditions. None of us became ill. We have no problem recommending this tour operator to others.

"We spent a week traveling with this tour company – three and a half days on safari in the Northern Circuit of Tanzania and three days exploring Zanzibar. They arranged the entire safari and accommodation in Zanzibar on our behalf, custom-made to our itinerary, at a cut-rate price. We couldn’t find a better package deal anywhere, and the services they offered were superb. The safari guide was knowledgeable and skillful, and we had our own private jeep. The accommodation exceeded expectations, and the pre-arranged transfers at the airports proved to be reliable. A brilliant service for a brilliant price. Highly recommended!"

"We had a great time. All transport and accommodation were well organized, apart from the operator’s lodge on the first night. The Kilimanjaro trek was an amazing experience for both of us. It was well organized, and all our needs were met. The porters and guides were excellent. Benjamin and Christopher, the main guides, were brilliant and helped us reach the top. The food was good, and the campsites were of a good standard. Fabion was a nice guy but not experienced and got us lost a few times. Drivers need to take more initiative if animals are not being seen – they should know where to go! A full-day game drive to the sand river in Masai Mara or Serengeti would have been better than too many morning and evening drives. However, Martin was excellent and experienced and took us further out. We were always well looked after, especially when we became ill. We highly recommend this company for future trips. Thanks again for a wonderful vacation."Operator Response: "We appreciate your feedback and thank you for the constructive comments. We will ensure such issues do not happen again. Thank you for recommending us."

"We had a wonderful trip to Tanzania – first, we climbed Kilimanjaro, and then we went on a safari. This operator arranged everything to the very best. We are very pleased and have nothing to complain about. I highly recommend this agency."
