Customer's reviews

We had our dream honeymoon in South Africa thanks to the efforts of Kathi Simon at African Welcome Safaris. I decided to book through Kathi as she was very responsive to my emails and could accommodate all my travel requests, providing me with a detailed itinerary suited to my budget. My wife and I could enjoy ourselves without worrying about missing our flights or transfers. During the trip, we could contact Kathi whenever we encountered any issues. Our Shark Cage diving tour got postponed due to inclement weather, but she managed to coordinate and reschedule with the tour operator when the weather improved. For anyone visiting South Africa, we highly recommend booking through African Welcome Safaris for an unforgettable experience! ~ Shawn C
An African Safari has been a bucket list item since I was a kid. I am not wealthy but instead needed to save up for a trip of a lifetime so I was very focused on making sure it had the right travel agent that understood what I wanted to get out of the trip and boy did they deliver. My time in Cape Town was magical. What a gorgeous city. My time spent at Sabi Sands at Savannah lodge was beyond all my expectations. Easily the highlight of the trip. More animals than I ever imagined seeing. From there my time at Timbivati at Kings Camp was next level luxury. My weekend in Victoria Falls was majestic. Kathi, the agent I worked with, was the MK dest most accommodating agent ever. She would respond on her days off in an emergency and I always felt she was available. ~ Conrad M
Our honeymoon with African Welcome Safaris was amazing. We were referred to Kathi by friends who raved about their trip, and we were not disappointed! We started in Cape Town and the winelands (Babylonstoren) and closed out with a safari in Kruger. Everything was incredible and extremely well-organized by Kathi - the itinerary was well-planned and clear, and we didn't have to worry at all about transportation or what was next, while also having enough time at each place to not feel rushed. If we tried planning this ourselves it probably would have been more expensive and very complicated, so we can't recommend Kathi and African Welcome Safaris enough!! ~ Wes P
