Crispin is an energetic, enthusiastic and flexible tour guide who is always happy to answer all your questions. My trip to Africa would not be as great as it is if it wasn't for him.

This IS the ultimate trip to explore Africa, the countries you will visit are Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia, Botswana, Namibia and South Africa (there is also the opportunity to visit Zimbabwe as well) My favourite moments were spending an hour with a family of beautiful mountain gorillas in Uganda, volunteering to paint the outside of a school also in Uganda and walking with two adorable lion cub brothers in Zimbabwe. Our group varied from 11 people on the Kenya - Uganda - Kenya leg to 21 and 23 people on the other legs. The age group was mainly young people in their 20's and 30's from Australia, New Zealand and Britain with the odd European and American thrown in for good measure. Our truck was really comfortable, at various times we bumped into other trucks run by other companies and compared to ours they looked very uncomfortable and some even had plastic walls, not good on the bumpy, dusty road I bet!! If you want to see the real Africa with an experienced and very professional organisation then go with Acacia Africa.

Carlos4th June 2018
Was very pleased with the ease that I was able to understand, and navigate your website. Have actually been looking at several other tour companies, some have played phone tag with me. Others have not bothered to return calls. Their websites have been difficult, to work and understand. Am super excited to be working with you. Am now working on finding affordable airfare. Thanks again. Looking forward to a wonderful adventure. Have already been giving several friends your info.
