Amazing safari with Kingfisher—we saw the Big Five, incredible hunting action, and had a great time!
5/5

Amazing safari with Kingfisher! Communication was clear and prompt from the beginning, and the team was reliable, professional, and attentive throughout the trip. The service was excellent, and the experience offered great value for money. We saw the Big Five, witnessed incredible hunting action, and enjoyed a well-organized tour led by an exceptional guide. The guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole experience unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Five days, exceptional sightings: a 15-minute Mara crossing, 3 leopards and 6 rhinos
5/5

Our five-day September safari with Kingfisher covered a day and a half in the northern Serengeti for the Mara River crossings, a day in the central Serengeti, and half days in Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire. For anyone comparing operators, here is what set them apart.

Planning and price: Aneth worked with us on budget through half a dozen versions of the itinerary and delivered a great price that still included a bush flight to Kogatende. Payments went through Pesapal online, which made paying a small Arusha operator from abroad straightforward.

Itinerary: operators usually recommend three or more days in the north to be confident of seeing a crossing. We had a day and a half and still watched one run for more than 15 minutes. Flying in meant we didn't lose a day to the drive north, and a guide who knew where to wait did the rest.

Guide: Amiri is the reason our sightings list reads the way it does—three leopards (two in trees, one on the ground), a cheetah with three cubs, a serval, and six black rhinos in half a day in the crater. We also saw a lioness chase a wildebeest, another feeding on a fresh warthog kill, and three lions on a buffalo carcass, alongside the elephants, giraffes, hippos, hyenas, flamingos and crowned cranes you'd expect. Tarangire added more elephants and good birding.

Vehicle and lodges: the 4x4 was well maintained and air-conditioned, a real advantage on long, dusty drives. The accommodations were comfortable throughout.

Who it suits: travelers who want a tailored, well-priced itinerary from a small local team. We would book with them again.

Everything has been taken care of for us, we just needed to show up.
5/5

Anneth has been a pleasure to work with. She is very responsive and never takes more than 24 hours to respond to any of our inquiries no matter big or small and that continued throughout the tour. There is a wide range of accommodations and safari durations to choose from, so you can really customize the trip to your liking.

The whole trip has been seamless, there was a driver picking us up from the moment we landed in Kilimanjaro, Anneth and her team had truly taken care of every detail so we can just show up and enjoy the trip.

The tour itself was amazing, our guide Amiri is really good at spotting animals from afar and made sure we had a good time everyday. He also took time explaining to us the different animals we were seeing. He also always made sure we had a good view of the animals in midsts of many other safari tours. We were able to spot an epic great migration, baby cheetahs, leopard on the tree, rhinos, a pregnant lioness, lion hunting and many more.

I would recommend Kingfisher and Amiri as the tour guide in a heartbeat. Thank you for the adventure of a lifetime!

Kingfisher made everything easy and smooth for our Safari trip!
5/5

We had a safari trip planned by Anneth. She was very responsible and easy to communicate with. No hidden charges everything was transparent and fairly priced. Our safari guide Amiri was super helpful and experienced, showed us lots of cool animals. We even saw a massive wildebeest crossing and lions hunting. It was a great trip and I would recommend Kingfisher to my friends and families.

Wonderfull experience
5/5

My girlfriend and I loved the trip from the very first moment to the last. All the essentials were organized perfectly. The communication with the operators was quick and clear, and the itinerary was well-balanced and exciting. We didn't have to worry about a single thing, which allowed us to fully enjoy our time together. Highly recommended!
We say a lot of wildlife during our trip and we have learned a lot from our guide during the trip.
