Very accessible in helping to plan our holiday which more than fulfilled our hopes

Zambia is one of my favourite places for wildlife viewing, and South Luangwa and Lower Zambezi together make a wonderful safari don't they? I'm so pleased you loved it. Amanda

Exceeded expectations in almost every way.

Every element of our trip to the Andes, Mach Picchu and the Amazon rain forest was high quality and went according to plan. Staff, hotels, service and scenery of course, exceeded expectations.

Tribes helped us plan a tailor made itinerary that suited us exactly. And all the arrangements went like clockwork. The additional insight and preparation by one of their country experts helped immensely.

It was a wonderful family holiday. Amazing wildlife and unforgettable experiences. The accommodation was consistently very good. Our guide was really knowledgeable and truly inspiring. Sitting on a kopje and watching the sunset over the Serengeti with our Masai guide was a wonderful experience. Getting up close to the elephant families, seeing two male hippos fighting in a lake at a picnic stop, having two lions shelter from the sun by the side of our jeep, watching a stand off between three young lions and a buffalo, being in the complete wilderness in a tent at night and hearing the hyenas were just some of the things we will never forget.

Rating for tour operator:

Tribes were brilliant. This is the first time we have used them and they organised the trip and itinerary to suit what we were looking for. They were very knowledgeable and always ready to answer questions. Will definitely use them again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Tribes Travel responded to this review on 01 Sep 2016:

Thanks so much for this lovely feedback. Tanzania is a very special place that we love, and the gameviewing can be utterly magical as you found out. getting to know something of the Maasai culture is also a superb experience. We're so pleased to have been able to help you with this trip. Best wishes, Amanda

The personal knowledge and expertise of Tribes staff ensures the trips we book with them don't give us any nasty suprises

A fantastic holiday in Namibia which was clearly well tailored to our briefing

A wonderful mix of scenery, friendly people, good food, and fantastic wildlife watching.

Rating for tour operator:

We normally plan and arrange our holidays ourselves, and wanted to go to Namibia, and especially to see Etosha, but knew very little about the country or where else to visit. For the first time ever we contacted a company to help us, recommended by a friend. They did a fantastic job of listening to what we liked, and put together a holiday it will be difficult to forget. We liked all the places we stayed, and all the people who dealt with us on holiday - well done.
