What travelers are saying

"I have been dreaming to do this journey for a long time and now i am like in a dream. It is a fabulous trip with this company Alaitol Safaris and the guide Abel is amazing. We have seen more in 3 days then some other people. My dream was seeing a leopard and the driver Abel found them already 3 times. He even found the placenta from a elephant with his new born . We asked our travel agency to give us a guide who has a nose and experience and adventurer and we had the right one. So people if you want adventure and want something amazing book safari with Alaitol Safaris."
