What our guests sayโฆ
My wife and I booked a 10 day Safari trip from in Southern Africa for our honeymoon. Every detail of the trip was lovely and ran smoothly. Our accommodations were excellent and we felt very spoilt in the best way possible. I am one to normally book all details of a trip myself but in this case having a specialized travel agent makes all the difference. I never would have been able to book such an amazing and smooth trip on my own. A must go to for booking a Safari Holiday.
Claire organised a trip of a lifetime! The experience of Africa is one Iโll never forget. Claire made sure she understood our requirements and took the time to quote different options which were thorough. Once we decided she organised everything and took the hassle away from doing it yourself. If anyone knows Africa itโs Claire! The whole trip was seamless and easy from airport transfers, accommodation to safari camps and the flights in between. We started in Zimbabwe Vic Falls and finished in the Okavango Delta. It was a well thought out trip with a range of everything from popular game drives with expert rangers, mokoro trips and options to do boat cruises. We got to see everything we dreamed of and more. I would highly recommend using Claire for any Safari bookings ๐
Our safari was even better than we hoped! We had an amazing 12 days in Kenya. Everything was amazingly organised from start to finish. The camps were incredibly comfortable and the wildlife so much better than we expected. We were amazed how close we got and the variety of animals that we saw. Claire’s expertise was so hugely appreciated. We really didn’t know where to start, and her advice was invaluable. Totally recommend!
Can highly recommend Claire and her team. We got great advice about the trip and had a fabulous time on the 22 day Transkalahari Adventure. Also the African Safaris website is excellent. Would definitely plan another African trip with this company.
Our safari adventure is over and we have had the most marvellous time. From the moment we landed in Victoria Falls Claireโs expertise in safari organisation kicked in and was faultless. It was the most amazing travel experience of our lives. The animals, the people, the scenery, the food, the quality of the guides, the standard of the camps we stayed in – particularly Kanana Camp – all contributed to an outstanding experience. Being accommodated within a concession area made a huge difference to the experience. It was a big bucket list ticket for the 4 of us. Claire – we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your guidance, for your African knowledge, your connections and all the helpful information you have compiled and shared with us as travellers.

Claire at African Safaris arranged a comprehensive itinerary for our group of two couples after thoroughly researching our expectations. Accommodation included Lodges, Mobile Safari, a houseboat on The Chobe River and a hotel, the latter in Vic Falls. Our main destination was Botswana where our expert guides ensured that we saw a multitude of game including lions, cheetah, leopards, hippo, elephants, giraffe, birds etc. We used Mack Air for internal flights and the various elements flowed seamlessly together.
Our safari in Kenya was simply amazing! Claire listened to what we wanted and her experience and organisation contributed to a trip that exceeded our expectations in all ways. An African safari has been a dream since early adulthood and ended up being a life-changing experience. We highly recommend African Safaris to anyone who is thinking of doing a safari.
Incredible experience thanks to the impeccable organization from Claire. Every flight, accommodation, pick ups, drop offs were always on time. Would highly recommend, especially the Porini Camps which are small and intimate. Beautiful Kenyan people made it so special. Don’t forget to add on a few nights at Chale Island on the coast, paradise.
The whole trip was very organised. Around 20 pickups and flights and all done amazingly well and on time!!! Well done!!! The guides were well spoken, knowledgeable, patient in giving us all we wanted. Meals & accommodation were outstanding. We saw all the big 5, the ugly 5, and many more!!! We are very happy!
Recently my wife and I went on a Safari in Kenya with African Safaris Ltd. What a great trip we had, total well organised with fantastic hosts in the camps and brilliant guides while out looking at animals. We also saw all the top key animals and enjoyed the wonderful scenery of Kenya. We felt totally secure while on safari and also with the Kenyan Masi people. We can recommend this to trip to anyone – Nick & Felicia
