Saurabh was awesome Saurabh was awesome — he understood our needs and time and set up the perfect trip for our budget. He’s super responsive, promptly replying to any request — I wonder if he even sleeps. He set us up with the best guide, that made our trip even more memorable. Finally, we had some issues with the balloon ride in the Serengeti and he got us half our money back! Overall great experience and I’ve been sharing my pics and his contact with everyone.

First time travelers to South Africa As first time travelers to South Africa, there was no way we could have put together a trip as streamlined as we were treated to from Fair Trade Safaris. Every question (and there were many!) that we asked was quickly answered to our satisfaction. We wanted to add to our trip and those accomodations were planned for us as efficiently as the main trip. I recommend this organization fully.

Fair Trade Safaris did a great job We travel often and like to plan our own trips, but when trying to figure out where to begin with an African safari, we knew we would need expert advice. We were drawn to Fair Trade Safaris based on their commitment to African animal conservation and to the local communities. We chose Tanzania in order to see the Great Migration in June and July. Our family of four (two teenagers) first visited Tarangire National Park, a gem with beautiful baobab trees and animals left and right. Elephants were especially prolific. Next was the Ngorongoro Crater which is an absolute necessity in any Tanzanian itinerary. The landscape was stunning and the animals were mesmerizing. The Ngorongoro Farm House was among our favorite stays with delicious food and inviting accommodations. We then visited Serengeti National Park and stayed in the Kati Kati tented camp which was so authentic and the people were so nice and engaging. The food was tasty and we enjoyed “glamping” with giraffes and zebras right outside our tents. Finally, we visited western Serengeti and saw the Great Migration. It was so moving and unbelievable, there were even some tears shed! It’s exactly as you see it on National Geographic. Josephat, our fabulous guide, was several notches above other guides. He spotted animals in trees far away that we couldn’t see without binoculars. He even had to show other tour guides where animals were hiding on many occasions. One day he talked with other tour guides that were searching for a group of cheetahs seen earlier in the day by other guides. He used his knowledge of their behavior and searched in a few remote spots and found the group of five cheetahs. We met other tourists at the hotel that night that asked if we ever found the cheetahs and we replied in the affirmative. They were disappointed because their tour guide never found them. Thank you to Dianah and Saurabh for helping us with our itinerary and logistics. We had a wonderful time and hope to visit Africa again. Sincerely, Eric, Gwen, Jenna and Caroline Peterson

Our trip with Fair Trade Safaris was magical… Our trip with Fair Trade Safaris was life changing! Saurabh and the entire FTS team made sure that we had a complete itinerary all set before our trip and also helped us with our flights. We had little anxiety about our trip because we had so much faith in their team about how everything was going to be handled and they did not disappoint. We really liked how they set us up with going to Johannesburg first and then went on to see Victoria Falls, and Botswana and then on to Krueger to the private game reserve. The hospitality was the best part from everyone we had helping us. The boutique hotels and lodges that they set us up at were amazing and we would have never known to go to those. So thankful and can't wait to go back!

Excellence in the Details I traveled to Africa for 3 weeks this past July 2016. Fair Trade Safaris put together an excellent well detailed Itinerary with many extras and lots of Options. I found the Company's Attention to all the Details regardless of how insignificant they may have seemed at the time to be the key factor in such an excellent worry free Adventure in such a far away place. Thank You Mr Saurabh Khetrapal and Fair Trade Safaris, I hope to use your services again soon.
