Exceeded all expectations for a bucket list trip
From the start, the process to book was seamless and quick. Richard was very communicative and accommodating, and laid out a suggested itinerary as well as some options for us to personalize it to our own taste. Booking, payment, and planning were all extremely professional and by the time we put our down payment down, we had no concerns whatsoever about our itinerary or anything else.
The safari itself left us speechless. We came in with high expectations but some of our lodges completely blew us out of the water (especially the "Serena" lodges). On our 8-day safari we saw at least one of every animal, and in come cases we saw tens (lions, hyenas) or hundreds (elephants, buffalo, etc). Our driver was fantastic and took us wherever we wanted to go, got us in positions for incredible photos, and got us up close and personal with many elephants and big cats. We even got to see the elusive Black Rhino!
By the end of the trip, 4 of our friends back home were bugging us for our exact itinerary and Richard's information. We happily gave it to them and we highly recommend Richard for any type of safari you're looking for.

Professional operator and kind staff members
Mali Kale Africa Safaris - operator was the perfect pic for us, as they took very good care of me and my family before, during and after our safari. The communication was easy and mutual, and never did we wait long for replies. Even though our flight was very delayed Mali Kale's staff members waited for us at the airport with big smiles. None of our requests seemed to be a problem. Alfred was the best driver, he had lots of knowledge that he was kind enough to share with us and he took everyone's interest in consideration. The safari was everything we had hoped it would be and more.

Incredible Service and Sights - Saw all animals - highly recommended
Our guide Alfred was extremely polite, fun and knowledgeable. He had great character and spotted so many animals for us - we saw almost all creatures up close. Robert, when booking our accommodations, recommended great hotels and the price was very reasonable. We had an amazing time.

Awesome experience!! Well coordinated, informative, and super friendly people...
We LOVED our experience with Mali Kale Africa Safaris. It was coordinated by Richard, who was a pleasure to meet and work with. Richard met us at the airport and he saw us off before leaving to sadly return home. Our guide - Alfred - was extremely knowledgeable, prompt, informative, honest, accommodating, and altogether perfect for our visit.
Our tour included 4 days in Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti, and Lake Manyara... We were very fortunate to see ALL of the major wildlife, including first hand witness of a cheetah stalking and successfully catching a gazelle, a leopard in a tree, several hyenas up close, lions (both pride and pair of males) lounging around, and of course a myriad of elephants, ostriches, zebras, wildebeest, eagles, giraffes, jackals, gazelles, impala, vultures, buffalo, and much much more.
I have been all over the world and I have done several similar tours (safaris in Botswana/Zambia, S. Africa, Galapagos, Brazilian Pantanal, etc) and I can say with confidence that this tour and the team at Mali Kale was very professional, diligent, organized, and pretty much on top of everything!!

Our time in Tanzania with Richard was wonderful; he's a great animal spotter!
Our tour was organized by Aslan Adventures in Nairobi. At the border between Kenya and Tanzania we changed to Richard as our driver/guide. Our time with Richard was very good. He was quiet but congenial; he was punctual, polite, very helpful with my somewhat disabled husband, and always patient with my not-always-punctual family. . . He was outstanding at spotting animals. He found leopards when we'd have completely missed them! We saw so many animals!!! We had wonderful days with Richard. The vehicle was always clean and running well; his driving was great! It was an overall amazing and delightful experience for all four of us.

Wonderful Day-Trip to Tarangire National Park
We had a wondeful day-trip to Tarangire. Thr guide was very professional, telling us all about the lots of animals we were able to see. We even were lucky enough to see two cheetahs :)
The food could have been better, but it was ok.
Overall it was really worth the money we spent for the trip! A beautiful experience :)

everything on time, good prices
I was trying to find a company which could make a personalize trip to see the great migration, I was talking with many and all of them offered more than 4 days (i couldnt do that), but I found this company (Richard) and he was trying to organice everything as I requested. Give me good prices compared with others.
everything was on time as expected, and Of course I could see the great migration, I was so happy for that.
thanks Mali Kali,
Thanks Ben (my guide)
Thanks Richard!

Fantastic adventure
Can't think of a single thing that went wrong! Great experience. Employees were knowledgeable, friendly and competent. Our tour guide had an amazing knowledge of the animals and able to answer every question. He should work for Google! Communication with the tour operator was quick and effortless. And we saw every imaginable animal and even the wildebeast migration across the river between Tanzania and Kenya. So glad I made the long trip for an adventure of a lifetime.
