Just returned to the US after our third trip to Africa with Aardvark. Each time it gets better and better. They are an outstanding company and really listen to their clients goals. My Group of friends have been a nine person group and this pastime three person group. No matter how big or small your Group is, regardless of what your goals are, while still keeping in mind Your budget, Aardvark is the way to go. In fact, this past trip, one of our tent camp, managers said they really enjoy working with Aardvark on that end of a holiday. Because Aardvark pays such attention to their clients details, the tent camps, then how to fine tune your visit with them. It’s a win-win situation for everyone. If you have not been yet, Africa should be on your bucket list and definitely go with Aardvark they are outstanding, and you won’t be disappointed. The people, culture and animals will Alter your soul And spirituality forever. Jen and Roy V.

Just finished a Namibia trip with you. Brilliant planning and never had such a well planned, well supported holiday. Was a leap going to the area but felt safe with your guidance, fantastic documentation and superb customer service throughout. Best ever experienced

Great people to deal with . Our trip to Uganda was second to none .Organisationally brilliant ,great lodges and guides . This was our 3rd trip with Ardvark would not look anywhere else for a safari holiday.

Ardvark Were excellent from start to Finish. Jo organised us the most amazing Honeymoon across Tanzania and Zanzibar. Her accommodation recommendations were excellent and we cant wait to start planning our next trip!!

Support from Aardvark in planning our first safari trip was very helpful including detailed guidance on preparation and packing. Our detailed itinerary were all on an app on our phones. Meet and greet arrangements and transfers worked like clockwork. The accommodation at both safari destinations was excellent. The first: the OlPejeta Cottages was like a taste of old colonial life, luxury with a cook and butler and our own guide for the game drives. The second, Off Beat Mara was a great camp with luxury tents and a communal area where you ate and shared your days’ excitements over a drink. The Sands on Chale Island resort for our final week on the beach was amazing. The game drives were fantastic, thrilling at times, given the terrain! The guides were incredibly knowledgeable about the animals and their behaviours. Absolutely brilliant holiday. Thank you Aardvark!

We wanted to introduce our children to Africa in a careful and grounded way that opened their eyes to both the wonders and the realities of life in this part of the world. Alice made no hesitation in recommending Malawi. We jumped at the chance as it was a country neither of us had visited - so an adventure for all four of us. The itinerary Alice put together was perfect: 3 nights at Mkulumadzi Lodge in the Majete Wildlife Reserve; a short plane ride north to Kuthengo Camp in Longwe NP where we spent 4 nights and finally 5 nights on Lake Malawi at Pumulani Lodge in Monkey Bay. The trip felt seamless and all the logistics ran like clockwork. But just knowing that Alice and the team are there for support meant that we could truly relax. The dramatic entrance to Mkulumadzi across the rope bridge was the gateway to a beautiful oasis of calm, with the rushing Shire river the soundtrack to our stay. Noeleen and Tony were the perfect hosts and they and their team looked after us so well. The food was out of this world! Our guide Mali was incredibly knowledgeable and his and his family’s passion and dedication to conservation was inspiring. We could not have wished for a better introduction to African wildlife for the kids. Epic life long memories of encounters with elephants, giraffe, leopards and lions were absolute highlights. The flight to Kuthengo tented camp in Longwe gave us (especially the kids) a true sense of how vast the wilderness is. When we arrived at Kuthengo, we were met by Jen and our guide Matthews. We meandered our way back to camp along the banks of a very different river - high, flat calm and home to the most incredible variety of birdlife. Twitcher heaven! And the charismatic crocs and hippos kept everyone entertained! The accommodation was everything we had dreamt of and more! Raised on stilts above the water, we slept to the oddly comforting noise of hippos chomping their way through the water-hyacinth right outside our tents. The animal sounds at night did heighten our senses but that was a wonderful part of this rich experience for the kids and was nothing that a bit of musical beds couldn’t resolve! Mike and Jen run the camp at Kuthengo. They were awesome! Their passion for the place was infectious. We were once again so lucky with our experiences on drives but for guests who hadn’t been so lucky, Mike and Jen went to extraordinary lengths to make sure their guests fulfilled their hopes and expectations. They are super dedicated and hard working and their team was just delightful. Another very happy ship! Our days were spent in a combination of boat and land safaris. Being on the water at sunrise was simply stunning. The landscape was so different to Majete and we were again incredibly lucky to enjoy experiences with elephants, lion, leopards and even a glimpse of black rhino! We ended our time in Longwe with a walking safari. That was an absolute highlight for me! It felt so spoiling then to have a further five nights at Pumulani on Lake Malawi. It was like the trip that just kept giving. Pumulani has beautiful views over the lake and the sunsets were stunning. The rooms were airy and really comfortable and the food was, once again, excellent. Highlights of our stay included star/planet gazing, snorkelling with the cichlids, a trek up the hill behind the lodge, a walk through the village and even waterskiing! But it was also the perfect spot for some R&R before we tore ourselves away back home. Aardvark safaris are such an incredible operator. They listen, tailor each trip so carefully and take responsibility not just for putting together amazing itineraries but also for their clients. They care deeply about ensuring that your experience is as wonderful as it can be and go the extra mile to make sure it is. We are so grateful to Alice and her team for putting together this fabulous trip for our family. It will live long in our memories!

A wonderful once in a lifetime family holiday to Kenya. Thank you Aardvark Safaris. Jo listened carefully to what we wanted and helped with ideas. The mixture of beach and Safari was perfect and left us wanting more! The whole holiday ran like clockwork and all personnel were professional, friendly and helpful - we literally didn’t lift a finger! Thank you to @Sands at Chale, @Speke’s Camp Masai Mara and @Safari Cottages Ol Pejeta and of course to @Aardvark Safaris.

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous! Alice and her team at Aardvark Safaris go the extra mile in creating unforgettable adventures. It was my first time visiting Africa but the whole process was as smooth as butter thanks to their support and guidance. I had the most epic time on my horseback safari in Botswana and would absolutely book with Aardvark Safaris again - perhaps for those splashy canters in the Okavango Delta in the future!

Aardvark really are the best in the industry. Their breadth of knowledge across the industry is extensive and the attention to detail on each trip is second to none. Could not recommend more highly!

We were delighted with the safari holiday Aardvark organised for us - it was an excellent mix of locations and wildlife variety. They really listened to what was important to us and gave us good advice on what to expect. They used Nomad camps which was an inspired choice as they were simply perfect. A huge thank you as we all had the most magical time.
