“Hands down one of the best trips I have ever taken. The tour guides went above and beyond to make sure that we were comfortable throughout our entire stay with them and we couldn't have asked for better guides, accommodations and experience. I highly recommend you book your tour with these guys ! You will not regret any minute of it !”

“It was a great trip, wonderful to see the animals in their natural habitat. Some long days of driving but well worth it in the end. Erellah was great leader, pointed things out that we would've never seen without his help. Wilson, Sam and Esther were great assets to the trip and made it all the more enjoyable. It was my first trip with this tour operator and plan on more.”

“We went on safari with our guide. Everything was organized perfectly, he speaks fluent German and knows all the animals and finds them. The Toyota LandCruiser was practically new and well maintained by the guide. Super friendly people in the camps. A fascinating experience. Thanks to all. What an excellent job.”
