Sunway Safaris

Excellent professional tour company - super service from start to finish. Sunway know Southern Africa very well and have got excellent itineraries and great guides. Just back from the Botswana Wild Parks tour with highlight after highlight and great game viewing.

In June-July 2026 I took a very very interesting and spectacular trip with Sunway Safaris for 19 days in South Africa, first time in Africa and first time with this company for me. I highly recommend it. Guides very professional, well planned organization, relaxed and joyful atmosphere. We did 3.000 km and at the end of the journey our small group shared the same feeling: very happy ! Mike and Elon did a very good job!I am going to go again with them , hopefully next year.

Our two-week lodge safari, "Mozambique & Kruger – Beach and Bush," with Sunway was an extraordinary journey. The route was incredibly diverse, offering the perfect combination of fascinating wildlife safaris, glimpses into African urban life, and idyllic, secluded, paradisiacal beaches. Of course, you cover many kilometers and spend a lot of time in the truck – our affectionately nicknamed "Red Elephant" – but that's precisely what makes this trip so special: Since you don't have to worry about anything or drive yourself, you can calmly observe and absorb the landscape, the wildlife, and the life along the way. Yes, some stages are long and bumpy, but this is exactly how you experience both countries so intensely and gain insights that would otherwise remain hidden. You experience South Africa and Mozambique in a captivating way, gaining an incredible understanding of the land and its people, seeing the real Africa in all its facets, and at the same time having ample time for swimming and snorkeling on stunning coastlines. The accommodations were mostly beautifully situated and perfectly complemented the safari experience. In general, however, you should be aware that this is not a relaxing vacation, but rather an active trip with early mornings and a willingness to pitch in. A huge thank you goes to our guide, Dickson Chisema. He made this trip an absolutely unique experience. From the first day to the last, everything was perfectly organized. He always explained clearly what to expect, was open, warm, humorous, and always full of joie de vivre. His African roots and authentic manner, in particular, brought us closer to the country, culture, and people in a way we could never have experienced with a German tour guide. His enthusiasm, warmth, and extensive knowledge significantly shaped this trip and made it truly special. We were also particularly impressed by his vast knowledge of the wildlife, as well as the lives, traditions, and daily routines of the local people. This made every safari incredibly exciting and educational. In addition, Dickson is an excellent cook: Every day we were treated to fresh, varied dishes – a perfect blend of Western cuisine and authentic African specialties. We felt completely comfortable and well cared for at all times. This trip gave us countless special moments and will remain in our memories for a long time. Many thanks to Sunway for this fantastic tour, but especially to Dickson, whose warmth, zest for life, knowledge, and passion contributed immensely to its success. Highly recommended! One final note: Anyone wanting to experience authentic Africa even more intensely and up close should definitely book a tent safari. However, it's important to be aware that it's considerably more demanding and requires much more cooperation from all guests than a lodge safari. In return, you'll be rewarded with an incomparably intense nature experience – you can hardly get any closer to Africa.

Went with Sunways on a two week safari through Botswana into Zambia. From the first e mail enquiry to the final goodbye, the company was efficient and helpful. As a single woman of a certain age, I always felt safe and very well looked after. Food was very good and plentiful and the game drives were brilliant and highly successful. Cannot recommend our guides highly enough. If in doubt...go for it. You won't regret it!
