Great family group tour to Kenya. Forever an impressive memory.
We had a fantastic trip to Kenya with our 7 (in-law) children. From the start there was good communication with Africa travel. Traveling is traveling and sometimes things don't go as expected. Nice that there is a host in Kenya who can call you immediately and provide a solution.
We had wonderful guides for 7 days, who were able to provide a lot of information about Kenya, the flora and fauna. We have done wonderful safaris. Lions, Cheetahs, Giraffes, Elephants, Buffaloes, it was so special and amazing.
What surprised us in Kenya were the people who always wanted to sell us something.
You have to haggle on the price. We also found it difficult to determine how much tip you give to everyone who wants to do something for you. We traveled a lot in 13 days, I would like to travel a little less next time and plan a little more rest moments.

Roadtrip Namibie
A travel agent with a lot of attention for our wishes so that we could make our dream come true: a fantastic roadtrip through Namibie. Everything was perfect organized. Beautiful lodges. The service was great.
It is our second trip to Africa and I can recommend African Travels to everyone

great in private tours!
Another fantastically organized private trip (Namibia, Vic Falls and Botswana), which made all our wishes come true. Excellent accommodations, knowledgeable guides/drivers, and everything we agreed upon was fulfilled! We had wonderful drives; we were spoiled with game (7 leopards!!) and stunning scenery! The private basic camp in the Delta (Botswana) was the icing on the cake! Thanks, African Travels!

Excellent service & fantastic Safari & Lodge
We booked in South Afrika a beautiful Lodge with game drives in Game reserve Welgevonden. But since the heavy rainfall the resort was unable to acces, the roads were too bad.
African Travels immediately understandtook action and rebooked our 8 guest to another resort during Christmas time in another Game reserve.
Because of this we still experienced a fantastic safari and managed to see four out of the Big Five.
Thank you for your Quick response and the beautiful Lodge & Safari!

Excepcional
It's my third trip organized by African Travels (Marjinke that I don't know personally), and as always they are Excepcional, Efficiency and simpathy. Always contactable and available.
Asking sometimes if you we need something or anything is not ok.
If I could give 10 stars? Certainly I do.
Thank you African Travels!

The team could not have been better to work with - stop looking and pick them!
The team was extremely helpful and responsive to all the questions we had before and during our trip. They set us up in great camps and an awesome driver who was very knowledgeable and friendly!
Planning a trip like this is hard with all of the options; they made it easy!

Professional, reliable, and passionate – African Travels made our dream trip to Uganda memorable!
We had an amazing experience with African Travels on our recent trip to Uganda. The itinerary was well-organized, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The activities were diverse and memorable – from wildlife safaris to gorilla and chimpanzee trekking – offering a great mix of nature, culture, and adventure.
Communication with Marijnke during the planning process was AMAZING, clear, helpful, and very professional. She made sure everything was tailored to our wishes and responded quickly whenever we had questions. On the ground, our guide was FANTASTIC – friendly, knowledgeable, and always making sure we were comfortable and safe.
We’ve already recommended African Travels to friends and wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again for future adventures. Thank you for helping us create such unforgettable memories!

So helpful and well organised!
We had an incredible time from start to finish. 54 days starting in Kenya, ending in Zimbabwe. Marijnke was a star! Could not recommend African Travels more, they were so helpful at every point along the journey. I even ended up sick at one point and had to visit a hospital along the way and African Travels did everything in their power to help us rejoin the group safely and were so caring and supportive during this time. Fantastic company, and incredible trip. 10/10 would recommend.

Excellent!
We are just back from our trip to Uganda (22-12-2024/07-01/2025). Everything was again perfectly arranged by AT. Pick-ups, transfers, guide/driver, special requests. Everything 100% score!
If you want to enjoy Africa 100% without any worries? Simple: book with African Travels. African Travels really listens to you: to your wishes and principles! We have been traveling with African Travels for 7 years now and we wouldn't want it any other way. High service level, a good ear for feedback. And important: not only committed to its customers but also to the local African communities. Highly recommended!

Great organization with a personal touch
We had a wonderful campingtour trough Namibia and Botswana for 4 weeks. Varied with beautiful lodges.
We saw all the big animals, more than the big 5. Amazing. All de campsites en lodges had good facilities. We quickly felt at home and safe in each location. All the people were so nice. We did a lot, but also had moments of relaxation. African Trafels has shown us a lot of beautiful places. With a roadbook and much clearer information.
