Excellent and prompt service from Safari.com
I made a general enquiry last year to Safari.com, Shann Shaw's response was reassuring and not overly pushy trying to sell me one of their products. When I finally decided to make a booking through Safari.com again Shann Shaw's response was quick and friendly, giving all the details as necessary. This is a good start to fulfilling my bucket list trip to Victoria Falls, I'm hoping that this is an indication of the service I will receive during my trip.

Excellent service
Information was easy to access thus easy to make a choice of what we wanted. Then we connected with Shann who has been outstanding. She made all the arrangements, answered our many questions, provided ideas and guidance to help us make plans for the entire trip. Shann made planning this trip easy, fun and exciting. Would use Safari again and would highly recommend them.
