Very well organized tour, everything ran to time and was exactly as planned on the itinerary.
We had a fantastic 8 day safari tour of Kenya and Tanzania with Shanjoy. The drivers/guides were great, very knowledgeable and keen to share their experiences about the wildlife, bird life and anything thing else we asked about. The jeeps were very comfortable and we were given warnings about particular rough patches of road. The communication was excellent during the planning/ booking process and all the way through and during the tour. Our expectations were met and we were not disappointed with any of the tour, accommodation or itinerary. Everyone we met associated with the company were very friendly, welcoming and genuinely worked hard to make our tour a unique experience for us.
The Best Experience, without a doubt will use again!
We travelled with Patrick and Steve for a 6 day, private tour in northern Kenya and had an unforgettable time. This was our honeymoon trip and we loved how accommodating this company was to our ideas and suggested itinerary for the trip and they had great communication throughout the booking process. We really felt looked after and that the company had thought of everything to make our trip enjoyable, comfortable and special. Steve and Patrick were excellent company and were incredibly knowledgeable about their country and its wildlife and geography. We will be back in the future and we will only book with Shanjoy when we return!
The most heart filling, life loving experience!
I decided Kenya was the next place I wanted to travel to last year. So after much research and asking around. I came across shanjoy safaris in February. And my gosh am I so glad I did! My mother joined me on the trip of a life time this October as we travelled all through Kenya with the purpose of wildlife photography and that’s exactly what we got to experience! Kimani was our tour guide for the 10 days there. And after doing several safaris in South Africa in previous travels and years, he is definitely one of the best safari guides I have ever had! His knowledge on EVERYTHING was incredible! From birds to plants, to large mammals, to the culture, history and general questions of Kenya. We learned so much! My mum who’s not a wildlife photographer but a pure animal lover joined me as well and we had the best little girls trip! And she loved every moment! The three (Kimani included) of us all got along so well! And the 10 days with Kimani was nothing short of incredible. If I know anyone that plans to travel to Kenya. I would suggest Shanjoy and Kimani without hesitation.
The itinerary itself was a busy one! But I love and chose it to be this way so I could capture as much life and diversity through my lense as possible. Visiting 5 national parks in 10 days! We got to explore and experience so much diversity through the beautiful country of Kenya. The lodges we stayed at each night were also incredible with buffet food options for every meal keeps us well fed and rested between safaris.
I’d also like the make the very important note. Being a wildlife photographer, wildlife ethics is so important to me. And Kimani and Shanjoy safaris ticked those boxes for me! There was no harassment of animals. We stayed respectful to nature, taking photos of each animal quietly before moving on not to overcrowd animals with safari vehicles while Kimani also did his best to get us in picture perfect spots.
He knew and understood the nature and wildlife so well he was able to get us to some incredible sitings. And even though wildlife is wildlife nature is nature, you are never promised anything, we got so lucky to experience such beautiful sitings.
I’d also like to make a special mention to Rhonda. She was in contact with me from February and stayed in contact all the way through. Any questions phone calls, fast replies. She got back to me. Coming from Australia and Kenya being so far away from home but a place I was so drawn to. It was natural to have some nerves mixed with excitement and Rhonda was always able to answer any questions and verify any concerns. Along with helping me come up with the most amazing itinerary so without her this trip would not have been possible.
So to wrap up. This is a must do with the most incredible safari company of passionate nature loving guides. I have every intention to go back to Kenya in years to come and Shanjoy safaris will be the first place I’ll be ringing to book a tour and making special request for Kimani. Would recommend this company to anyone. The trip was perfect.
Thank you so much for having me and my and mum and allowing us to create such beautiful and special memories I will cherish forever.
Hope to stay in touch and see you again soon ❤️

Very knowledgeable, helpful, welcoming.
I would recommend Shanjoy to anyone. Beth was our tour organizer, and she was so easy to work with. We wanted to go to Kenya and Tanzania for our honeymoon and she made our dreams come true. Every detail was organized, we felt safe the whole time, and if we ever had questions she was easily accessible via email and whatsapp. We had an incredible experience and cannot say enough about Shanjoy! Thank you!
