Amazing trip!
5/5

I found the agency online and they got back to me in only few hours with all the information. Very profesional since the begining.
The trip was nicely organized, our driver was amazing, great route and loges - the only loge that was okish was in Arusha, but after telling the agency, they found a better one for us.

Highly recomended!

A company that puts you in first place
5/5

The whole experience with this company was always defined by how they made us feel special. Since the first email conversation with Paula, to the first phone call with Joao, to the first personal contact with Mr. Baraja and Sylvia, it looked like everyone was focused on making our journey feel special and exclusive. In 30 years of travel I never witness such dedication to customer care. The safari itself was a wonderful and magical experience. Great guide, great adventure, lots of wildlife. Everything was beyong my wildest expectations.

It Started in Africa - 5 Stars! Maasai Mara, Kenya
5/5

After weeks of research my best buddy I decided to book a private safari through It Started In Africa. Why? Pretty simple: Helder and the entire crew were very professional, responsive and informative. The transaction was very smooth, once we got to Nairobi, Kenya, the hotel pick up was on time, and the logistics and our itinerary was crystal clear and very well set up. The camp we stayed at (for 3 days) was very clean, safe and they delighted us with the most delicious food. The Maasai Mara itself it's one of those things that every person should experience at least once in their lifetime. This is the first time I write a review online ever, but my experience with It Started in Africa demanded it. If you are reading this and you are unsure whether to book a safari through It Started in Africa, I assure you; you will not regret it at all and you will have an amazing experience just like we did. All the best you guys!

One of the best trips of my life
5/5

We truly enjoy our time in Africa with "It Started in Africa" and the safari is great and the Kilimanjaro hike is amazing, the time in Zanzibar is also incredible. I only have good things to say about the company and will recommend it to anyone.

great service
5/5

Amazing experience in Amboseli National Park. Patricia, the operations director met us in the airport for a quick pre-briefing and was very nice to show us the best places for dinner around Nairobi. We ended up having dinner in an Italian restaurant which I do not remember the name but had awesome food and great Italian wine. Driver Faral was everything we needed: Knowledge, experience, humor and kindness in the same package :) Experience was top notch on all aspects.

An awesome safari experience in Kenya with It Started in Africa
5/5

We had a very refreshing tour of kenya this end may, first I wish to start with three people from kenya who made our first foreign tour a great sucess.We donot have the luck to meet our main savior from the company, Mr Helder who did everything possible to accomodate all your wishes ,our sincere gratitude to all of them.The other two wonderful people Carlos and Alex were our drivers cum guides and we all dreamt and wihed they be with us for ever.
It Started in Africa was very much helpful and communicatve since very begining, i.e when we were planning the trip. They help a lot in making the plans, arranged a pair of comfortable safari vehicles driven by knowledgable guides who were very thoughtful and protective as well. The safari plannings were excellent, as well as lodging and foods.
