Spectacular- A lifetime of great memories
We traveled as a family of 4, wife, our two teenage children and myself. This was a most amazing trip. We had two excellent tour guides who guided us to all the wonderful sights of Tanzania and Kenya. We got to see the Big Five and many up close and personal.
Despite the roads being quite bumpy, our vehicles were comfortable. The flights between Serengeti and Maasai mara were fun and efficient. We had great accommodations also. We thoroughly enjoyed the 15-day at a fair price. Would highly recommend Swift Travel to anyone looking for a great experience.

Great Mini-Safari
After having had a very bad experience on our first Safari with another tour operator (Experience Kenya), we had a very nice tour with two great guides/drivers this time.
I really appreciated how they were always moving the car for us to take the best pictures, their knowledge of animals and plants and how flexible they were.
Unluckily I cannot rate more than five stars here. Perfect service!

We had an excellent trip through Swift Travel.
Swift Travel was very professional, great in communication, timely, trustworthy, friendly and it was an overall very enjoyable expedience.
I highly recommend booking a tour with Swift.
Unmatched price and first class service delivery
What can say, Swift Travel organised the trip of a lifetime without any hitches and at a price we could not match elsewhere. We booked flight only to Nairobi and were picked up from the airport and taken straight on Safari by Joseph in our own Safari Jeep. We passed many buses/Jeeps with 6 or even 7 passengers and stuffed with luggage. Tsavo East, Tsavo West, Amboseli (our favourite), Mount Kenya, Treetops (least favourite), Samburu, Lake Nakuru and The masai mara- (we missed the migration as it was late this Year but saw loads of other wildlife) then flying down to the beach for a few days- what a trip, but without Joseph we would have missed so much!
Again, a huge thanks to Peter and crew for organising it all.... even taking us back to the airport for our sad return. We would recommend these professional people to everyone thinking of holidaying in Kenya.

A fantastic two night safari
We went on a 3-day safari Tsavo East & West staying at Ashnil Lodge and the Kilaguni Serena and a One day trip to Shimba Hills with Swift Travel in June 2015.We found Swift Travel to be reliable, punctual and good value for money. Nicholas the driver was really knowledgeable pointing out all the different animals and the service very professional from Lucy in the office. We saw three of the big five Lions, Buffalo and Elephant. We visited the Rhino sanctuary but were unlucky. We chose to say at Kilaguni and saw Hippos, Elephant, Giraffe, Zebras, Buffalo, Gazelle, Wildebeest, Warthogs, DikDik all visit the waterhole from our bedroom. Food was fantastic and so was the overall safari experience.

Very proffessional Tour company; Great attention to detail
This could possibly qualify for the best vocation we have had in Years. We really enjoyed our safari with Swift Travel and I am particularly thankful for their efforts.
We also appreciated the attentiveness to minor details like our dietary requirements as well as removing some seats from the jeep to accommodate my husband who could not comfortably bend his knees…
We enjoyed the stay at Sarova Mara and the overall safari experience certainly was more than we hoped for. Our safari trip wouldn’t have been any better without your professional planning and assistance.
Thank you!

Excellent Birding trip
Hi guys, just a short note to let you know that we had such a wonderful time on our day trip to lake Naivasha on April 12 2015. Our guide Patrick provided many laughs and facts and made the trip quite enjoyable. Very smart chap with unmatched ornithological knowledge. The boat trip to the crescent Island was interesting with the many birds that we spotted including a fish eagle taking a dive for lunch. Despite the seemingly “bad weather”, we did enjoy the day thoroughly and should we return to Kenya be sure to have us as your clients for another tour.
Thank you for providing us with a fun filled day!

Maasai mara Safari; We had a blast
Communication leading to our booking our safari with Swift Travel was spot on and so was everything else thereafter, a private safari jeep, a knowledgeable guide, a comfortable and well placed camp-the Karen Blixen camp and sharp price just to mention but a few.
The safari was good and we had a blast at the Maasai mara. Not only did we have a great group of people in our camp but also luck was on our side. On our first game drive we had already seen a leopard, a pride of lions, elephants and buffalos and only missed the rhino to complete the “Big five”. We did not spot any rhino on our next 5 game drives though but our guided had indicated that there are very few rhinos within the mara triangle, he has only spotted three over the last four years! We would have had greater chances if we stayed at one of the conservancies and notably at the Porini camps. Our next trip will definitely include that as well as Lake Nakuru or Ol Pejeta Conservacy.
Cannot fault this company as the service was better than average, keep it up guys!

Excellent customer support and nice itinerary
I was pretty hesitant in dealing with tour operators from Africa following my past travel experience but this one turned out to be absolutely the best service and experience I have had. I have been exceedingly fortunate to travel parts of the world and Swift Travel agency is so far the best tour operator I have used.
The owner and staff of this company went above and beyond in every way to make our safari a success, at one point they had to trace my lost luggage that had been left at the Johannesburg airport. Our tour planner was patient, knowledgeable, thorough and everything else that defines what travel specialists should be.
All four of the accommodations namely Tortilis camp, Tarangire river camp, Ngorongoro Serena and the Serengeti Four seasons lodge were fantastic; the people phenomenal and both guides in Kenya and Tanzania were amazing. Far exceeded my expectations and the value and service was exceptional. I look forward to recommending them to anyone who wants the best value and trip. They just got it right.

Swift in communication, superb service
We have just completed a wonderful trip in Kenya. We had booked this company following glowing reviews it got online and I would say that I am very glad I did. Being two ladies my mum and me, I wanted a company were we would feel safe and secure as this was our first time travel to Africa and we knew little about the country. I am pleased to say we had the best service before the trip and during.
I had sent a email originally outlining what I wanted to see and how long I had to see everything. Peter was excellent in advising me and the numerous emails I sent were swiftly responded to.
Our flight was arriving early in the morning (3.30 a.m.) and upon arrival our driver Joseph met us. Our first impression already gave us assurances and we felt in very good hands and that feeling never left through out the entire trip. Joseph went above and beyond to transport us, guide us and look after us. He was always on time and polite. His vast knowledge enabled us see almost all we wished for, we couldn't have asked for a better driver. He gave us extended game drives sometimes out of the itinerary and we soon realized he was out to have us enjoy our trip as much as we could.
If you are lucky like us to visit Africa, use Swift Travel and Tour management and ask Joseph, the hawk-eyed driver to be your guide.
I would definitely recommend this company for their professional work and value for money. I hope to be returning for another adventure to Kenya and probably Tanzania next summer and will be sure to book with them.
