Safari Consultants Bewertungen 

Safari Consultants, and specifically Frances, provided superb advice when choosing camps and hotels and excellent guidance for preparation in the pre-travel briefing materials. As a result the whole trip ran like clockwork and we could not have been happier with our choices. It is very clear that Safari Consultants has a wealth of experience and truly are experts in this field.

We have used Safari Consultants in the past (this was our 4th booking) and as always they never fail to get it spot on. You really are dealing with the experts here and Mary who has helped us before came up with an amazing itinerary that fully met all our needs. Thanks so much

The safari organised by Mary was amazing and all our connections went so seamlessly. There was always someone to meet us and to take us to the next connection. The hotels and camps were fantastic. Pity they couldn't book the animals as the wild dogs went awol the week we were there and returned a few days later. We did see Olimba the famous leopard though. We will just have to go back again 😊 and will definitely be asking Mary to organise it.

Fantastic support when building our perfect travel itinerary with a focus on what we wanted to see and do. During the trip, their partners ensured we were well taken care of with seamless transfers and connections. I would not hesitate to recommend Safari Consultants. They really know their stuff and Frances gave us some really good insights and suggestions. We loved everywhere we went and will surely have another safari in the future.

We used Safari Consultants for our honeymoon and they couldn’t have been better. They were knowledgable, professional and always available for questions. Even when we were away. I highly recommend them, and will definitely use them for our next safari.

Mary organised a perfect honeymoon for us, we were taken care of every step of the way and the whole trip went smoothly.

They are always available to answer questions etc, highly recommend!

Safari Consultants took notice of what we wanted from a safari and what we didn’t. The itinerary we chose (one of two offered) suited us very well. The 4 bush camps we visited were all of a good standard and well run with professional and friendly staff, good guides, comfortable rooms and good food. The small camps were in different regions in Zambia so the landscape and animal life were varied. We saw lots of animals, big and small. All the camps were way out in the bush so we didn’t see lots of other people or vehicles. We were often just two in a vehicle, sometimes four. Consequently the service felt personal. I would recommend using Safari Consultants for an exclusive type of safari.

We are seasoned safari goers and wildlife photographers, so it takes a special something to really take our breath away. Namibia did this at almost every turn of the, "very interesting", road. The landscape changes every few miles, the people are just so friendly and helpful and some of the animals unique. Don't expect wall to wall big game but see very special animals surviving in a harsh environment, Safari Camps in unusual but beautiful settings, and breath taking scenery. Safari Consultants, you are the best, thank you for making this very special trip even more special.

Outstanding Service and Unforgettable Memories!
The team was knowledgeable, friendly and truly passionate about providing a once in a lifetime experience. Highly recommend!

Customer service - I always got my questions answered quickly and completely no matter how trivial. Time was taken to prepare an itinerary for our group that met all of our needs. Every part of our Safari was executed perfectly and in detail. Our accommodations were perfect and our activities varied and most interesting, some spectacular. I also believe that the cost of the trip was worth every penny. I would gladly recommend this company to anyone wanting a unique Safari experience.

Very efficient and helpful service from Safari Consultants. The holiday in the Seychelles was excellent and lived up to our expectations in every respect.

There were so many aspects of our 15 days in Africa that it is hard to think of what to share that truly stands out. It was all wonderful! Of course, there is the incredible viewing of wildlife which is what it all started out to be about. But, there is also the wonderful people one meets along the journey that also make it special. Our guides and trackers were wonderful and the camp staff the best. I left thinking this was a once-in-a-lifetime trip and now, I'm planning how I'll go back!
I would definitely work with Safari Consultants again and recommend them to friends. Each step of our arrangements were expertly handled. I could immerse myself in the experience and let the details just fall into place without a worry!

We were met and escorted at every airport and helped with all luggage. Each camp was excellent with very comfortable to luxurious accomodations. The food in general was good to excellent (I had one dry piece of chicken one night) with very nice wines to accompany them. The game viewing was far better than I had anticipated, with very personable guides. Camp staffs were wonderful, friendly and tried hard to give us anything we needed or wanted. All of this is the result of great coordination and arrangments but Safari Consultants.

We would highly recommend safari consultants for planning and booking your African holiday.

We found Safari Consultants through a referral from an African conservation charity, so we knew we were in the hands of an operator who cared about the impact on the environment and local community. From first point of contact, through to the last minute questions, through to helping to resolve any issues whilst away, Mary and the whole team have been incredibly supportive in making sure we got the holiday of a lifetime - nothing was too much effort!

The camp we stayed in was exceptional, the wildlife incredible, and the guides really knew their stuff. You could tell that the in-person visits made by Mary and the team made a real difference, as they were able to answer questions knowledgeably and provide advice based on real experience.

We cannot thank you enough for going over and above to support, both with queries when we were in the UK and in Africa, and for ultimately helping us to have the holiday of a lifetime, thank you!

Every aspect of the service provided by Safari Consultants was outstanding. Starting with my dialogue with Kelly about what I was looking for from the holiday. The team exceeded my expectations in every way. All connections were incredibly smooth, guides exceptionally knoweldgeable. The Camps at Shinde and Dinaka were incredible in terms of location, facilities and the fabulous staff. The tour operator in Vic falls made some fantatstic suggestions for different things to do in the area. All in all - just brilliant - thank you

Great service from all the office staff & excellent advice (always truthful too) about venues. They think of everything down to the last detail well done to all of them.

We were really pleased with the trip to South Africa and Zambia organised by Safari Consulting. They chose some lovely Guest Houses. We were impressed with their attention to detail.

Frances was amazing to work with. It was the most amazing, and truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Grateful!

...to adequately express just how truly 5* this company is. We have been using SC since 2015 and are just back from our most recent trip with them in South Africa and Zimbabwe.
The 'databank' the wonderful Mary Grimwood has of what we like - and even more importantly, don't like - on safari is worth its weight in gold. It gives a short hand to getting quickly to how an itinerary could look and helpful distills a bewildering array of camps and options down to the ones that will particularly appeal to you as a traveller. I like to do my own deep dive research but no matter how deep I go, I can never get close to the intimate and detailed descriptions of the location, style, mood, food and wildlife of each game park and each camp that Mary can provide through her many personal visits over many years to all parts of African safari areas. On the rare occasion that she hasn't visited one of the camps in discussion, at least one - normally more - of her colleagues will have visited and then I speak to them for the same descriptive and vivid insider knowledge.
I am lucky enough to travel a lot and in all other circumstances I book my own travel but never for a safari. The range of choices is vast, even within the same country and the logistics potentially problematic without the benefit of great, long standing relationships with local companies and ground handlers. One would be mad not to use a specialist to help plan and to book the trip. However, Safari Consultants go way beyond the description of 'specialist'. They are vested and passionate about every second of your trip being life changing and a memory for life. If they were planning their own trip of a lifetime, they could not work harder, show more interest or go the extra mile than they do for their clients.
As I said at the top, there aren't enough superlatives...
