Grate trip in Tanzania
We can see many kinds of animals.
I can see lions many time. In other park, we couldn’t see lions so I’m glad.
The guide is also kind!

Mansoore was organized, relaxed and made the entire experience very enjoyable.
Excellent experience for a quick trip to tour Akagera. We saw elephants, lions, rhinos, giraffes as well as many more smaller animals. Mansoore was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable about the park and all the animals we encountered. The logistics were taken care of well and the entire trip was relaxed and easy!

Very nice safari for a good price!
Our driver and guide, Paul, was prompt on our very first day. Right after introductions, he thoroughly explained our daily safari itinerary, including all the scheduled rest stops, hotel stays, and estimated travel times for each leg of the journey.
Paul was friendly, cheerful, and highly professional. He kept the long drives lively and engaging, sharing history about the landmarks and demonstrating an impressive knowledge of the animals' names and behaviours.
A careful and experienced driver, Paul truly is a wonderful ambassador for both the country and the company.
We had a fantastic adventure and will not hesitate to recommend Sublime Travels and Safari to others.

Pleasant and kind
Brian fro Kibo helped make our family safari across Tanzania a truly memorable experience. We were a diverse group of eight—including kids and senior citizens—and Brian was patient, supportive, and accommodating from the initial quotation through several itinerary adjustments. He handled logistics seamlessly, including arranging for our excess luggage to be transferred directly to Zanzibar so we didn't have to worry about the strict baggage limits on small bush flights.
For the safari, we had two dedicated vehicles that were comfortable, well-maintained, and fully stocked with drinks. Brian ensured the day-to-day safari arrangements ran smoothly, and most of the lodge accommodations he recommended were great.
That said, there are two areas where the experience could have been elevated:
Safari Guides: While the overall safari was enjoyable, having more engaging, proactive guides would have made the game drives significantly better.
Zanzibar Leg: The hotel selection did not quite suit our group's preferences. It was undergoing refurbishment during our stay, and for a family of our size, booking a private shared villa would have worked far better than dispersed individual rooms.
Brian is exceptionally capable when it comes to Tanzania safari planning and logistics, but paying closer attention to guide quality and the post-safari Zanzibar experience would make the entire trip flawless.
I would highly recommend Brian and would definitely use his services anytime in the near and distant future.

An unforgettable experience

Our safari with Nkollo Tours & Safaris was a winner from start to finish. Everything was well thought out, nothing left to chance. For us this was a family trip, and at every turn you could tell there was real attention behind it – not some standard package being processed.
Our guide, Ringo, was the real reason this trip was so good. The man knows the animals, the ecosystems and the behavior of the wildlife inside out. He spotted animals at distances where we were just staring blankly into the green, and always knew exactly where to go and when to simply wait. The kids absolutely took him to heart – he took them seriously, answered their questions and brought them along rather than just letting them tag behind.
The wildlife was simply overwhelming. We saw the Big Five, several rhinos, plenty of lions, elephants and buffaloes. On top of that cheetahs, leopards, giraffes, zebras and countless other animals – and often up close. The absolute highlight was the Great Migration: we witnessed the river crossing at the Mara River. That's something you never forget.
We visited the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire, and each park had its own character. Ringo managed the time perfectly: never rushed, never that feeling of being herded from one animal to the next, always enough calm to really enjoy the moments.
The organization around it all was spot on too. Everything ran smoothly, and we felt safe and well looked after the whole time – as a family, that matters even more.
A huge thank you to Nkollo Tours & Safaris for this unforgettable trip. We'd recommend them anytime – and Ringo right along with them.

Unforgettable experience!
We had an amazing experience with Beyond the Plains Safari from start to finish. We did an 7-day safari covering Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli, and every part of the trip was well organised and memorable.
From the very beginning, Julius, who handled our inquiry and helped us plan the safari, was extremely helpful, kind and patient. His communication and willingness to help made the planning process very easy and stress-free.
A huge part of what made our experience so special was our guide, Dankan. He was absolutely incredible and truly went above and beyond throughout the entire safari. He was polite, friendly, patient, always smiling and incredibly helpful, which made us feel comfortable from day one. He also had great knowledge about the wildlife and was always happy to share interesting information about the animals and their behaviour.
Dankan genuinely seemed to care about making the experience as special as possible. He always did his best to take us to the best spots and help us find as many animals as possible. We honestly couldn't have asked for a better guide. We truly hope to meet him again on a future safari!
The jeep was also great, comfortable and well suited for the long drives and game drives, and everything throughout the trip was handled professionally.
We are extremely happy that we chose Beyond the Plains Safari and would definitely recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Kenya!
Thank you Dankan, Julius and the whole Beyond the Plains team! 🦁❤️
