“I can only recommend Sam! I was looking for a raw, authentic safari experience without the focus on fancy accommodation and she nailed the recommendation perfectly. Everything was perfectly organised from start to finish, including flights, transfers, and everything else!”

“Sam and James planned an incredible journey through Southern Africa over 9 weeks! Their local knowledge is fantastic as we self-drove through South Africa, flew to Kruger and Vic Falls, Chobe and Okavango Delta in Botswana and a 4-week self-drive through Namibia. Sam would check in to see how we were doing, and anytime we reached out with questions, they were quick to respond with help. Five stars is not enough and I would HIGHLY recommend anyone looking to visit Africa to ask Sam and James.”

“Sam and James, thank you so much for arranging our special Pitta trip to Mana Pools. The lodge was wonderful as were all the arrangements you sorted out for us. It all worked so smoothly. Your attention to detail in planning our trip was great. Keep up the good work.”

“Gardenroute-Golfreise” war von Anfang bis Ende perfekt organisiert. Alexa Safaris hat jedes Detail durchdacht – von traumhaften Golfplätzen über erstklassige Lodges bis zu reibungslosen Transfers. Wir konnten uns komplett entspannen und geniessen – absolute Empfehlung!

Our garden route golf trip was perfectly organised from start to finish. Alexa Safaris thought of every detail – from stunning golf courses and first class lodges to seamless transfers. We were able to completely relax and enjoy ourselves – highly recommended!”

“We did a road trip from KZN to Cape Town and then a slow trip up the west coast to see the Namaqua flowers. Sam from Alexa Safaris was amazing. We were a group of 7 and our accommodation was perfect in every way for our group. Everyone was blown away. I would definitely recommend Alexa Safaris to anyone who want to plan any type of holiday in Southern Africa.”

“Sam and James organised an excellent trip for our family. The best part was the communication prior and during our trip. We felt connected and were able to get the exact vacation experience we were looking for!”

“Thank you for taking care of our holiday across Africa from planning to the journey itself and closing  all open threads afterwards. Excellent service and care! My husband enjoyed very much every day of the travel. We became fans of Africa, it’s pristine wilderness. Hence our expectations in terms of traveling were more achieved! Looking forward to a next journey in Africa, with Alexa. Thank you Sam!”

“If ten stars were an option, Sam would have earned everyone. Her deep expertise in African travel created a tailor-made experience that exceeded all expectations. The hotel she selected for us in Zanzibar delivered truly exceptional service — the finest I’ve encountered anywhere in the world. Several friends have worked with her too, and all were equally impressed by her professionalism, insight, and care. Sam doesn’t just plan trips — she crafts journeys! Thank you Sam!”

“Sam did an amazing job planning and arranging our South African adventure. I can highly recommend Alexa Safaris for anyone looking for a terrific travel agent in S.A.”

“We had the most wonderful trip to South Africa! All thanks to Sam’s meticulous planning. She understood our requirements and tailor-made the most fabulous trip for our family. She also kept in contact with us as needed while on holiday. I’ve already asked Sam to start thinking about our next trip!”

“Sam and James have now managed two trips for us (and one for a colleague) and we have nothing but rave reviews. All accommodation has been spot on – a really good mix from luxury to put your feet up and relax. They are both always willing to go the extra from key returns in Plett to sudden unexpected accommodation changes. Nothing was too much for them. Highly recommended.”

“We had a holiday of a lifetime thanks to Sam’s expert knowledge and attention to detail on a trip involving 6 flights in Zimbabwe, Namibia and Botswana.

She reassuringly kept in touch both before and during our trip. Even when one of our flights was unavoidably delayed, she was able to arrange at short notice for us to be met at the airstrip and to be taken to join a game drive that was already underway, so we didn’t miss it.

A real concern for us was that one of us had very restrictive diet requirements. Sam ensured that everywhere we went, details had been forwarded in advance to the super friendly staff who could not have been more obliging.

We saw some amazing animal and wildlife experiences, not to mention Victoria Falls and have some wonderful memories.

Thank you Sam, you are without doubt the best Travel Specialist we have had the pleasure to work with.”

“What can I say….  We gave Sam and James probably less than 3 weeks to organise our flash visit to South Africa! They planned a brilliant, interesting and very detailed itinerary. They checked up on us regularly and came up with suggestions all the way.  Our time at Flounders Lodge Safari Lodge was amazing, this is the place to see pretty much every animal at very close quarters. I could not recommend this lovely couple more. If you are thinking of a trip to South Africa, or / and a Safari then Alexa Safaris is definitely the best you can find. We will be back!”

“We have recently returned from an excellent ten days in South Africa organised by Sam at short notice. It could not have been better planned, and I would recommend Alexa Safaris to anyone wanting to go to southern Africa.”

“I can’t recommend Sam and her team highly enough. We had a wonderful family holiday over Christmas and Sam was always there to make sure everything went smoothly. The safari she chose for us was absolutely spot on and is something we will remember forever. The team at Bundox Safari were equally impressive – we saw the big five and more. Absolutely fantastic.”

“ALEXA SAFARIS …. WHAT ELSE!   Unsere Reise war ein Traum. Alles hat wunderbar geklappt und wenn wir kurzfristig etwas ändern wollten: Sam hat’s möglich gemacht. Ihre Versprechen waren kein Versprecher !!!!! Alexa Safari’s hat 110% geliefert … und darum: MIT DEN BESTEN EMPFEHLUNGEN.” 

“ALEXA SAFARIS… WHAT ELSE! Our trip was a dream. Everything went perfectly, and whenever we wanted to change something at short notice, Sam made it possible. Her promises weren’t empty! Alexa Safaris delivered 110%… and therefore: WITH OUR BEST RECOMMENDATIONS.”

“Sam planned the most fabulous anniversary trip for my wife and I. The private game lodge that we stayed at was above and beyond every imaginable expectation. We also were able to explore the winelands and Cape Town with Sam’s amazing recommendations kept us in awe and was the most fun we’ve had every day. Africa was the greatest vacation we have ever had, and looking forward to working with Alexa Safaris for future trips to South Africa and beyond.

Thank you, Sam & James, for everything!”

“It was an absolute pleasure working with Sam and James to plan our two-week South African adventure celebrating our 25th anniversary with our three children, all in their early twenties. We began our journey in Cape Town and travelled along the Garden Route, with memorable stops in the winelands, Tsitsikamma National Park for a sea kayaking adventure, Knysna, Plett and a visit to see Meerkats in Oudtshoorn. We concluded our trip with an incredible three-day safari at the Amakhala Safari Lodge.

Sam’s recommendations for accommodations for our family of five were spot on, and the car hire arrangements were excellent. Her meticulous attention to detail and thorough confirmations both before and during the trip were invaluable. She was available at every step, ready to assist with any questions or concerns we had. Do not hesitate to contact her for your travel plans. Fabulous people and an exceptional experience. Above expectations every step of the way. We can’t wait to book our next African adventure with her!”

“Thanks to Sam & James (Alexa Safaris) we had a superb holiday in Namibia. As first timers we undertook a self-drive trip from lodge to lodge. Each accommodation had a special charm. The staff always friendly and helpful. All well chosen 🙏🏻  The diversity of the landscape and animals is phenomenal in Namibia.”

“Sam helped us plan an unforgettable trip for my mum’s 65th birthday. She was super helpful in picking the right safari lodge and we always felt supported and in safe hands throughout the whole experience.”

“We just returned from a 3-week trip to South Africa and couldn’t have been happier with the itinerary that Sam & James put together for us. I had been corresponding with them for 10 months before our trip to get the itinerary just right…..and Sam was incredibly accessible, responsive and always open to my ideas and questions And, I must say, that she was right on when it came to matching us with accommodations, tours and car hire. We were very happy with every place we went and every hotel / lodge where we stayed. And – she even checked in with us throughout our stay to see if all was going well and assisted us with making a couple of last minute changes to tours we had booked. We highly recommend Alexa Safaris – they’re lovely people and great tour planners!”

“Sam planned the most interesting itinerary for our first trip to South Africa and the kids’ first introduction to safari. Incredibly well picked destination and very comfortable stay in a high animal density area! We saw so much and experienced the most stunning sunsets, season of babies, incredibly animal spotting and wonderful scenic drives. From there we spent time in Cape Town and wine country on an adventure for all senses. Sam found the most interesting experiences for all ages.”

“Alexa Safaris arranged a very special trip for our 25th wedding anniversary to the Masai Mara.  We had the most amazing 4-night stay at Governor’s Camp.  The overall experience was phenomenal and every last detail was thought of.  Thanks so much for organising such a special a bucket list trip Sam and James. We had a ball!!!”

“What a great holiday in Botswana. Followed Sam’s advice and certainly didn’t regret it. Brilliant service at every step. Highly recommended.”

“Superb service.

Very enjoyable holiday to Cape Town and game reserve. Lovely hotel and fine dining. Sem made this trip memorable for us. Thank you!”
