A tour operator who cares for us
5/5

We fell in love with Kenya because of Sweet Africa Safaris! Our guide (Aaron) and the owner (Nyix) were always making sure everything was tight and perfect for us.
They even made costum T-shirts for my husband’s b-day!
They always respected the planned schedule, always on time, and ahead of us to be ready for the game drives.
Car was cleaned everyday.
Car seats were sooooo comfortable!
Aaron speaks really good English and was always available to answer our questions regarding the culture and history.
I can’t emphasize enough how much I recommend this tour operator who was also recommended to us by previous travellers.
Thanks to Aaron and Nyix!! We miss you my friends!!

Best client service ever!
5/5

As you may know planning a Safari requires a lot of research and creates a lot of questions…. Before choosing what is good for you. Well on this I can ensure you that S.A.S went above and beyond to provide as much information as I could possibly intake and even went above and beyond helping me in planning the remaining of my vacation on a kitesurfing adventure! They are 1000 reliable, ready to help at any time with logistic issues or anything you could ask for . The guide that we had not only took care of us but treated us like family and ended up becoming a friend . It was easy to feel privileged while traveling along with them as every little requests we had was taking care of. We opted for kenya and it did not disappoint! The Masai Mara was simply a must and we ended up taking our own road away from the rest of the crowd until the sundown, which was nothing else then magical ! Honestly, if you want to have a stress free safari from the planning to the end of your trip … Choose them :) thanks Nyix, Aaron and all ! From us

Beyond what we could even dream about! Outstanding.
5/5

From the very first enquiry contact we knew Sweet Africa Safaris would be our tour operator. Nyix was very responsive to all the initial questions and he planned an absolutely amazing package for us which included 6 days safari and 6 nights beach. He organized everything perfectly and all the lodging exceeded our expectations. As a guide he was amazing, helpful, funny, friendly, very respectful and listening to our needs. Nyix was always on time and very organized which we loved. We did Samburu Park at Simba Lodge: gorgeous lodge right in the reserve, beautiful room with priceless views and outstanding food. The staff was amazing and made us feel at home.
The safari part in every reserve we visited was just beyond anything you can even imagine when you put a safari on your bucket list. Ol Pejeta Conservancy was amazing as you have a chance to see Rhinos as well as all the other animals. Lodging at Serena tented Camp was outstanding, deluxe tents and outstanding food. Next stop at Naivasha Lake: Sopa Lodge: beautiful resort by the lake. Very relaxing. On to the famous Masai Mara where we stayed at Treetops camp where they only have 5 tents or I should say palace!! Wow! Nothing you can even dream about. We took the optional hot air balloon ride and it is a MUST and worth every penny. You will have optional visit of a traditional tribe village : I would suggest that 1 visit is enough (either Samburu or Masai) as it is similar in many ways.
Throughout the journey our guide Nyix was always so helpful, he is good driver and has an incredible eye to spot the animals that sometimes we could not see.
This was our first safari experience and we fell in love with Kenya but mostly with Sweet Africa Safaris. We are already thinking about booking with the same company for a safari and beach trip in Tanzania.
This was truly a 5 star experience. We travel a lot and can't compare with any other trip we have done before.

Excellent Tour Operator for Tailored Safaris
5/5

We had a tailored Safari, starting from Nairobi, Kenya, driving to west, Kisii, then to Mwanza, Tanzania, and finally to Serengeti. The guides were simply the Best, sharing great knowlegde on their culture, and leading us to the best places on game drive. Both our guides spoke very good English.
Our accomodation arranged through Sweet Africa Safaris met and even exceeded all our expectations on safety and standards.
I warmly recommend Sweet Africa Safaris to anyone planning a trip to Kenya and Tanzania!

5/5

The organization of the trip was build on many mail exchanges to end up with a safari that suited us perfectly
But even though well prepared the safari was still full of very nice suprises, especially the lodges and of course the games
The drivers were specialy accomodating during the games and very skilled and knowledgeable
Just a great experience thanks to a very good organization,very nice people and a beautifull country

Brilliant, well organized, interesting, interactive. We had an amazing time with Johnson & co!!
5/5

Johnson's organization was pretty close to flawless, and he catered to our changes of mind during the trip with no issue at all.
Johnson and our drivers (George and Peter) doubled as experts on the wildlife and local culture, gave us a whole bunch of fun personal stories and anecdotes, and brought us to superb animal sighting places. They also spotted many animals we missed.

The animals were amazing, and Johnson's team made sur we saw everything we could. Highly recommended!

Best family vacation ever
5/5

This was our first trip to sub-Saharan Africa. We spent a week with Johnson and his team on a terrifically well-organized safari, visiting a number of parks and seeing more wild animals than I had ever dreamed of. There were 9 of us (three generations) coming from three separate countries, and Sweet Africa brought the whole thing together. Our ages ranged from 17 to 84, and everybody loved the trip. There must have been glitches but we didn't see them, and Sweet Africa made it possible for us to relax and focus on watching the animals in their habitats and spending great time together as a multi-continental family.
Transfers to and from several airports were handled seamlessly, as were all the other details, and the team was available day and night, in all time zones, to help us plan our trip, handle tricky visa questions, inform us on the multiple medical issues, and keep us organized.
The drivers, Peter and George, were fantastically skilled and incredibly well-informed, and so able to tell us not just what we were looking at, but all kinds of great details about habitat, feeding, migrations for the animals and birds, and tons of fascinating facts about the plants in every park.
Sweet Africa catered to our needs before we needed to ask, gave us time together and made a complicated trip incredibly easy and joyful. They deserve 5 + stars, and I recommend them wholeheartedly for any safari in East Africa.

Excellent service. Thank you Sweet Africa Safaris!
5/5

My first encounter with Johnson was one of a kind. I would confess in this review that, the management of safari tour matters a lot. indeed, the fun and all the experience during the time spent heavily depends on the person in charge. The accommodation and the vehicles used by Sweet Africa Safaris bring a whole different experience that make one yearn for a repeat. If anyone is looking for tour company in East Africa, I would definitely recommend SWEET AFRICA SAFARIS.
