Prepared a wonderful itinerary, highly organised, with extremely knowledgeable and engaging guides
Our Camptrek Safari through Kenya and Tanzania provided so many wonderful sights and experiences that will stay with us forever. From elephants mating and Kilimanjaro at Amboseli NP, to close up rhino's at Lake Nakuru, to the lions and feasting hyena's in the Masai Mara, to witnessing the extraordinary wildebeest great migration in the Serengeti, along to the spectacular Ngorongoro crater, and then finally to Zanzibar and the magical Stone Town. What a trip!!
Our guides Pilipili (Kenya) and Eliud (Tanzania) were not only really knowledgeable but also very engaging and great company.
The optional hot air balloon ride in the Serengeti was great although we were hoping the balloon would have gone to higher elevations. The walking tour in Stone Town was fascinating and although the spice plantation tour in Zanzibar was interesting the constant pressure to put your hand in your pocket got tiresome. The lodge accommodation throughout the safari was brilliant.
We highly recommend Camptrek Safaris - enjoy your adventure!

simply "MAL D'AFRICA" ("longing for Africa")
Title express completely our feeling (myself and my son) after this experience.
We felt (and we're still feeling) a deep emotional connection and desire to experience (back) the continent of Africa, its culture, and its landscapes.
It think it's linked to a variety of factors: personal experiences, cultural heritage, romanticized view of Africa.
An intense and profound nostalgia felt during and after our jurney and wish to return.
it's an emotional and spiritual feeling, difficult to explain clearly:
- a strong desire to return to the places visited, to relive the emotions felt and to immerse oneself again in African culture.
- a sense of inadequacy and impatience in resuming our daily routine after having lived the African experience
- images, colours, sounds and smells of Africa suddenly resurface, creating a sense of nostalgia and desire.
ALL the above is absolutely linked, inextricablyis to our Camptrek Safari team, our "guardian angels", Augustine and Last.
They were just perfect in every respect, professional, empathy, knowledge of the populations, animals, history and parks: I really do not know how many questions, experiences... and also jokes we've shared with them.
I will never forget the moments of great emotion that I saw my son experience, on his faces, his eyes, his tears: all of this will remain with us forever, in our memories (or better... until next adventures with them! :-))
We would like to thank Petite Margaret as well: she's been simply perfect in guide us at the time of drawing the jurney (10 days: Mombasa - Tsavo East - Amboseli - Tsavo West - Taita Hills - Diani Beach - Mombasa) and supporting us for any kind of info/doubts/also fears we faced during the booking.
CAMPTREK GUYS: THANKS FOR ALL and... AFRICA IS A FEELING, YES!

Professional operator with excellent guides
We are a group of 4 adults with a relatively complicated itinerary - 11 days to travel from Kenya to Tanzania and back to Kenya again. Before our first trip to East Africa, we reached out to 5-6 highly rated operators on Safaribooking.com - Camptrek Safaris stood out with its prompt responses, attention to our needs and clear itinerary with visualization (some operators only provided us with a table in an email).
Rose, our customer rep, is very responsive/efficient and helped us to finalize all the details within a few days while some operators only reply to our message once a day. She managed to secure all of our hotels with all booking vouchers in place soon after the deposit was made. She made sure that our whole trip was smooth from the start to the end given we need to change guides / cars when travelling from Kenya to Tanzania and back to Kenya.
The trip wouldn't be the same without our amazing guides who are very professional and experienced:
Ben (Kenya): his eagle eyes spotted so many animals from far distance - rhinos, cheetahs, lions etc. We saw more than 5 rhinos on our first day with one of the rhinos being super close - he made seeing rhinos seem so easy when it is one of the hardest to see. He is easygoing and passionate about giving us the best experience
Richard (Tanzania): Richard managed to help us capture so many magical moments / close encounters with cheetahs, leopards and lions. He is very knowledgeable and patient, explaining the animal behaviors, background about the national parks and taking care of us through our adventure in Tanzania
Eric (Kenya): it's not easy being the guide for the last part of our trip given we have seen all of the Big 5. Eric communicated effectively and understood our needs - with his magic, we managed to have a clear view of Mt Kilimanjaro for 2hrs and saw some hunting attempts by the lions in Amboseli
I'd definitely recommend Camptrek Safaris - the trip went smoothly and exceeded my expectations. Looking forward to more adventures with Camptrek!
