One word: Faultless. We only knew that we wanted to ‘go on safari’ when we first met Sue. She competently gave us lots of ideas and recommendations and developed an amazing itinerary. This included my cousin and her husband coming from Australia Every flight, taxi, accommodation etc went smoothly. Sue’s communication was second to none, especially when we hade to move our trip by a year. Our safari guide was so helpful and informative, we learnt lots. People were so friendly especially the staff in the tented camp. Look forward to booking another holiday with Track Safaris.

What a fantastic trip Tracks Safaris arranged, we couldn't have asked for more. The camps were fantastic along with the game drives. Wow what we managed to see was unbelievable. Sue recommendations were all spot on. .

This trip was organised by my UK based cousin and both of us had wanted to do an African safari all our lives. This trip exceeded our expectations - we saw all of the “big five”, our guide, Kassada, was excellent and a wealth of information. Our “recovery” in Zanzibar was a perfect end to the trip.

Sue is so knowledgeable and gives great advice. Our safari was second to none, everything went like clockwork, the camps, staff and guides were amazing. Would recommend Tracks Safaris to anyone.

Our whole trip was planned with their advice and everything went off so smoothly. We were always met on time and with great curtesy. All Sue’s recommendations were spot on, I would use them again with confidence.

The guides & support team are very experienced, helpful & friendly. Meals were good & accommodation was exactly as expected. Itinerary was good & well paced. We had some amazing experiences & saw plenty of wildlife.

We recently visited Namibia and used Tracks Safaris to organise our trip. After sending through a list of all the destinations we wanted to visit, Tracks Safaris created an amazing itinerary for us and were very quick to respond to any questions or problems we had. I would definitely use them again and would recommend them to anyone looking for a unique and incredible trip.

Tracks Safaris are amazing because Sue listens to your preferences, and then organises the holiday of your dreams around these. She provides good advise. We requested some changes early on, these were followed up as per our wishes. Sue answered all our questions, reassuring us towards departure time (when we started to get a little worried about our adventure.)
We were greeted at the airport, and provided with everything we needed. We had the most amazing time in Namibia, what a wonderful place! Friendly people, amazing nature / landscapes/ wildlife, excellent self-drive traveling and independence. It truly could not have been any better. And yet the price was extremely competitive.
Thank you Sue and Tracks Safaris for a trip of a life time.

Tracks Safaris (and specifically Sue) arranged an amazing Kenyan safari and beach break for us. Sue was endlessly patient and helpful advising on routes, accommodation and flights and helped us work to our budget.

The three generations of the Middleton family recently completed a safari holiday (with time to chill at the beach) in Kenya arranged by Sue at Trackssafaris. The programme she put together was ideal with all ages engaged the whole time. No question or query was too small for a detailed reply from Sue.
The Porini camps in the conservancies were amazing and as my 11 year old granddaughter said “she was awestruck by the amount and variety of wildlife that we saw”. The staff at the camps could not have been more friendly and helpful, down to the little touches like hot water bottles in the beds! I would certainly make Sue the first person I called if thinking of returning to Africa.

Our first visit to Africa and our first safari. Sue from Tracks Safaris put together a brilliant itinerary and gave us loads of great advice. The trip exceeded our expectations.We stayed in small Eco-camps and our safari guides were brilliant. When we do our next safari we'll be go with Tracks Safaris

Sue arranged the most amazing trip for my son and I to celebrate him finishing his A-levels. We climbed Kilimanjaro, went on safari and finished with a beach holiday in Zanzibar. Everything was seamless from the flights, the transfers, the on the ground staff, the hotels etc. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Tracks Safari’s again and would recommend Sue to anyone looking to book a trip, she was amazing from start to finish.

Sue is great at suggesting and then organising some fabulous trips. She has organised three very different trips for me - to Botswana, Kenya and most recently to Zambia. Everything was very efficiently organised, and the camps she suggested were superb. Wonderful game viewing. I saw 17 wild dogs together! I would trust her to arrange any future safaris. She always goes the extra mile for clients.

If I could rate Sue as 10 then I would. She is extremely knowledgable and approachable and able to answer all our ‘silly’ questions. There were a number of challenges with our booking, non of which were Sue’s fault, and she worked tirelessly to ensure we got the holiday that we wanted. And we did, a fantastic trip with many memorable moments. Great camps, excellent food and expert guides.

Sue was absolutely brilliant from start to finish, the organisation and outcome of the trip was seamless. Dividing our time between two different parks enabled us to see all the animals we could have asked for and provided different safari experiences in one holiday. In addition, the accommodation, staff and game drives were amazing, making the trip extra special with additional touches to celebrate my Dad’s 60th Birthday. Sue helped organise a surprise hot air balloon and kept it off all itineraries and worked with the hotel to keep it surprise all the way to the day! I can’t thank her enough for all the organisation of the whole trip, it was better than I could ever have imagined! 


Sue listens to what I want to achieve and chose camps which were delightful but not too posh in Botswana & Zimbabwe. She was also very helpful giving the camps warning that I'd suffered an injury and would struggle more but I would still travel.
All the arrangements worked perfectly, staff in the camps were very welcoming and the guiding superb. I'll definitely be back for more, enjoying the wonders of Africa and I won't hesitate to use Tracks Safaris again.

We have just returned from a trip of a lifetime. Although we are experienced travellers, this was our first safari and booking with Tracks Safaris. We researched many tours before meeting Sue at the Travel and Destinations show. We were impressed with her professionalism, knowledge and willingness to tailor make a trip to our requirements and budget. After several consultations, we were blown away with the trip Sue could organise for us.

Due to flooding our second accommodation was not accessible and Sue quickly organised an alternative, which was incredible with the watering hole immediately beside our rooms and restaurant terrace.

From the greeting at Johannesburg airport till our departure, the whole experience was seamless. The Ivory Tree Lodge - Pilanesberg and Tau lodge - Madikwe, were excellent hotels, with wonderful staff and they catered for our dietary needs. The game drivers were very friendly, knowledgeable and they found all the animals you could wish to see and more.

We cannot thank Sue enough for this incredible experience and would highly recommend Tracks Safaris.

Fresh back from Zambia, my second African adventure, I'm still basking in the excitement of a flawlessly curated itinerary, expertly crafted by Sue Preater of Tracks Safaris. Sue is a treasure trove of knowledge on all things Africa, working diligently to tailor the perfect journey within a predetermined budget. She checked every box on my wish list, from spotting Wild dogs to luxuriating in a camp on the Zambezi River. For a two-week trip, we sought a charming, rustic camp, and Kapamba Camp exceeded expectations, with its warmth and hospitality. We also desired something a bit more luxurious, and so we also stayed at Lion Camp and Anabezi, which offered warm welcomes and breathtaking settings. The wildlife encounters at each location were truly unforgettable. If I'm fortunate enough to return for a third visit, I'll undoubtedly turn to Sue at Tracks Safaris, and I highly recommend you do the same for your next African escapade.

I just returned from my third trip to Africa, each one flawlessly organized by Sue at Tracks Safaris. Time and again, Sue has proven herself to be incredibly resourceful, knowledgeable, caring, patient, and experienced in all things Africa!

Before choosing Tracks Safaris, I had shopped around with numerous well-known safari companies—but none came close to the personal attention, depth of experience, and insider knowledge that Sue offered. Her attention to detail has ensured that each trip was exactly what I was looking for—and truly seamless from start to finish.

With her extensive personal experience staying at so many camps across Africa, Sue brings a level of insight and expertise that simply can’t be matched. She has helped me organize unforgettable adventures in Uganda, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Botswana, and Zambia.

I can’t tell you how many times I passed vans packed with a dozen people all jostling for a good photo—yet every trip Sue has planned for me has been uniquely tailored, with private (or mostly private) game drives, personalized accommodations, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences in stunning locations.

Sue has always been personally available to answer any questions or address any concerns, and I would recommend her again and again. If I’m lucky enough to take a fourth trip to Africa, there is no question who I will trust with the planning—Sue at Tracks Safaris!

Few days ago we came back from our three weeks self-drive trip to Namibia and wanted to thank Tracks Safaris for organising the most perfect holiday. If you are planning a trip to Namibia look no further!

It was our first trip to Namibia, we had a vague idea what we wanted to see and where we wanted to go but we didn’t know how to organise it. We asked Sue Preater, Managing Director of Tracks Safaris to help us to prepare a tailor-made itinerary which would offer a diverse and authentic experience.
Sue and her team perfectly understood our aspirations and thanks to her first-hand knowledge of each destination and every camp and lodge organised an unforgettable trip, covering most of Namibia and Victoria Falls.

Thanks to Tracks Safaris we had a truly wonderful holiday. Everything has been meticulously planned by Sue herself and organised with absolute perfection and great attention to detail. We have seen most beautiful, diverse landscapes, had memorable encounters with the indigenous people, seen amazing animals on numerous safaris and game drives and enjoyed every activity suggested and organised by Sue. Each destination on our route was different and offered new experiences and each accommodation was unique, beautiful and absolutely perfect.

The entire trip exceeded our expectations, and we cannot wait to travel with Tracks Safaris again.
