My booking agent was extremely informative, patiently answering my million questions. Although our conversation was done only through emails, the feeling was as if it was a phone conversation since I received all needed information in timely manner. I have only the words of praise for my agent :)

Nicky was an absolute super star and I was her worst nightmare, indecisive and sent multiple emails!! Nicky went over and above to accommodate all my enquires even extending my booking due date to accommodate my needs and not the company's. I can't thank her enough, she has my bite fur

This is my first time booking a tour through a travel company and Tamlyn was so helpful in answering all my questions and making the process as smooth as possible. Would definitely recommend African Overland Tours to anyone who plans to go to Africa!

Huntley has been absolutely amazing, and gone out of his way to ensure that we got on the tours we wanted, or finding an alternative that fits into our travel plans. We can't wait to get into Cape Town to meet him and thank him in person!

Tamlyn is the most knowledgeable, friendly travel agent. She answered every question (and there were many) thoroughly, and no issue was too small. Highly recommended.

I have never dealt with a company (and person-Tamlyn) who has been so helpful and patient! All of my (thousands) of questions have been answered in so much detail! It is always hard booking a tour over the internet but I have been provided with the best advice and information and have never felt more comfortable booking this tour!!!! My spot was also held for me while I made up my mind and had public holidays in between so communication was scattered! Thank you so so so much! Can't wait to actually go on the tour now! Woooo!

Everything went really, really well. And I can't thank you enough for all that you did to make our trip a success. It's a week the students and I will never forget. We don't have a particular moment or event that stands out, the overall experience was just very positive. Our guides were wonderful, the food was great and the camping experience was much more fun than I'd anticipated. ( in all honesty, when I booked I wasn't sure it was for me, but I was wrong!!) So thanks again! Dianne

I am officially in Cape Town. I can't even begin to start telling you how much of an amazing time I've had. WOW. Can't believe it's over! Couldn't be happier to be in this beautiful city. I am going to be here for 10 days and depending on your schedule I was hoping to try and catch you on your free time to grab a bite, go for a hike, or even a quick cup of coffee. Thanks so much for helping me make this decision of heading to Africa. It's a beautiful scar that will forever remain in my mind. Looking forward to meeting you and exchanging stories! Cheers, Mikkel

Huntley is perfect on, suggesting the best trip to your desires. He also gives very detailed information about the trip and the country/countries you'll be visiting. If you are considering a trip to Africa just contact Huntley and he'll talk with you and offer the best suited alternatives to your expectation from your trip.

I would like to provide some positive feedback on Linda (tour leader) of the 10 day tour of Kenya and Tanzania 28 Feb to 9 March. Linda was so organised, helpful and make a huge effort to spend time with the group of guests going above and beyond what I would expect of a tour leader. She is a hard worker helping out the cook all the time, efficient and so friendly. My father in law was on the tour and was very apprehensive about his age (67) Being a problem on the tour. Linda went above and beyond to help him and make him feel comfortable. She is also very knowledgeable on animals in the area.

I found a few travel agencies offer very similar tour itinerary & similar prices. I chose this company because of their quite & prompt response, they were very patient replied every question we asked and gave us their recommendations. Huntley also followed up our booked tour with the organized tour company closely. We found their service very satisfactory and recommend other to use them.

Hi Nicky, We arrived safely to belvedere and are now on our next part of the journey to Cape Town. Our game drives were absolutely amazing and everyone has been so accommodating. I finally got to see wild dogs which I have waited three years to see so I could not be happier. I too love the bush and there is something special about it of a night. Nothing compares to falling asleep to the sounds of the African bush. I am so happy with the service you have provided and this trip has been wonderful. I will definitely be contacting you again in the future and will highly recommend you to friends and family. Kind Regards, Brooke
