    I had an amazing experience with African Polecat Safaris! Our guide, Manfred was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, making the tour both informative and fun. The itinerary struck a perfect balance between popular sights and hidden gems.

    If you are looking to book a safari African Polecat Safaris is the way to go! We had awesome time and we got to see almost everything we wanted to see (animals need to learn too corporate, LOL). African Polecat Safaris customer service is outstanding! We booked the, 5-day safari to Africa leading National Parks. (Serengeti, Ngorongoro & Lake Manyara). Due to fights being late we arrived too late to start the first day of the safari. James of African Polecat Safaris worked hard to ensure we still got the most out of or time there. My wife and I had a great time and we would HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend African Polecat Safaris for your next trip.

    the tour that I chose was very satisfying, very helpful for those of us who are still confused about which agent to choose, so it's good that I recommend this tour. A pleasant trip, not hampered by any obstacles on the way, small risks, and safe arrival at the destination.
