Great tour from start to finish
Shanjoy were recommended by a friend so we decided to use and weren’t disappointed. The communication from start to finish was excellent and the vehicles and guides were great. We stayed in mid range accommodation which was excellent and the quality of food and staff friendliness were brilliant. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent attention to detail
Rodah our tour guide did an excellent job coordinating the logistics for our customized tour. Eight people, two jeeps, two countries,multiple venues and people arriving and leaving on multiple days.
The logistics were flawless.

Perfect planning of our first ever African safari!
Wowww! Thank you to our travel consultant Rodah Wangui and Shanjoy tours! We have return from a 10 night safari starting in Nairobi Kenya through Tanzania and back to Nairobi 8/27-9/6 2026 . We viewed more wildlife than we could have imagined. Saw the “big five”. Lions and lions and lions. I started booking this trip for 8 adults 15 months in advance. Rodah was there every step to make sure we got a safari that meet our desires and price points perfectly. And there were lots of emails Always answered promptly! Our first spot was lake Navaisha and the sopa resort. Absolutely wonderful first spot. We went out in the lake with the hippos and were surrounded by wildlife on land. Zebras outside our doors at night. Spend more than 1 night there. Then we traveled to the Masai Mara. 2 nights inside the park. Breathtaking! Then we had a very long driving day to the Serengeti “ African massage” was free in the jeep during our 10 hour trip. Maybe you should fly? When we arrived. We stayed in the middle of the Serengeti. 2 nights in a tented platform structure. Surround by the stars and wildlife. Not for everyone’s liking. But it was a wonderful experience. Woke up to the feeding elephants behind the tent! Serengeti was packed with herds of wildebeest. Saw our sleepy leopard in the tree. Then we moved to the Ngorongoro crater. We got to see the rhinos and the feeding lion who decided to walk in the road and have a nap in front of our jeep. Next stop was tarangire. Too be honest we all were underwhelmed there after all the wildlife we saw in the previous days. Took a hike up on killimanjoro. And finished our safari in Amboseli NP for 2 nights. The park was incredible and we stayed at the ol tukai lodge and it was great!
In conclusion. With all these moving parts every day was seamless! Our 6 different guides were wonderful. We never waited a moment for anything. Pick up’s, safaris,hotels/lodges check-in. Seamless and wonderful!
And Rodah checked in with us every day too make sure our safari adventure was running this way. Thank you Rodah!
And before I ever contacted Shanjoy. I got recommendations from safaris by Ella. After a few questions she guided us to some operators that could fulfill our journey.
Amazing safari. Amazing wildlife. Fully fulfilled our expectations.
Thank you

Incredible communication and made the entire planning of our dream safari completely seamless.
We used Shanjoy for the Kenya leg of our honeymoon in September and they made the whole thing effortless.
The booking process was the first good sign. Questions got answered quickly and clearly, nothing was vague, and everything we agreed on in writing is exactly what we got. That matters when you're planning from abroad and can't verify things yourself.
The logistics were the standout. They handled our transfer from the airport to our hotel on arrival, got us across Nairobi to Wilson the next morning for the flight to the Mara, and picked us up again at the end. Every driver was where he said he'd be, at the time he said he'd be there. No confusion, no waiting around.
The safari itself lived up to it. We were well looked after from start to finish and never once had to chase anyone about anything.

Roda was so helpful in planning and booking our tour. We were a group of eight and she was able to take all our requests and make them happen.

One of the most curated safari experience we could ask for!
We had a wonderful experience with the Shanjoy team during our week-long safari. We started in Nairobi and traveled to Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Amboseli during our trip and saw everything we were hoping to see. Our guides, Dominic and Isaya/Rasta, were also phenomenal and made our first safari experience very wonderful. They were both extremely knowledgeable about every animal we saw as well as keen on making sure we saw everything on our list (Ex. Big 5, Great Migration, Mara River Crossing, etc)! They assisted us during the border crossing between the countries and it could not have been more seamless. Their office team is also extremely responsive and our contact Rodah was amazing to work with. She also made sure we were well-taken care of during our entire trip! I researched many tour companies and eventually chose the Shanjoy team. Would highly recommend the Shanjoy team for any safari goers!

Ticked all the boxes
I’ve just returned from an amazing safari, and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough!
From start to finish, I felt completely safe and well looked after. Our two tour leaders, Rio in Kenya and Legger in Tanzania, were both incredibly reliable, knowledgeable, and professional. They kept to all the timings and managed to fit in every activity, even with the traffic, which made the whole experience run so smoothly.
One of the biggest highlights was seeing the Big Five in just one day, along with an incredible variety of other animals. Every day brought something special, and the wildlife experiences were truly unforgettable.
The food arrangements were also excellent. All my dietary requests were fully accommodated, which made such a difference.
The accommodation in the tents in the Serengeti was absolutely magical. Waking up surrounded by nature was an experience I’ll never forget.
Another major highlight was visiting Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru, followed by the fantastic bike ride in Hell’s Gate National Park. These experiences were such a wonderful combination of adventure and natural beauty.
A huge thank you to Rio and Legger for making the trip so memorable. Their organisation, knowledge, and dedication made this an exceptional safari. I came home with amazing memories and would definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking for a safe, well-organised, and unforgettable African adventure!

Perfect company, perfect guide/driver, and perfect tours!
We had an absolutely amazing safari experience with Shanjoy Tours & Safaris. From the very beginning to the end of our trip, everything was perfectly organized and exceeded our expectations.
Our guides/drivers were professional, experienced, friendly, and very attentive. They made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the journey, and their knowledge of the wildlife was impressive. They always did their best to help us find and enjoy the most amazing wildlife encounters.
The accommodation, transportation, meals, and overall organization were excellent. We especially appreciated having a private 4x4 Land Cruiser, which made the safari very comfortable and flexible.
Kenya and Tanzania were truly unforgettable, with incredible landscapes and wildlife. We were lucky to experience so many wonderful moments, and we will remember this trip for a very long time.
Perfect company, perfect guides/drivers, and a perfect safari!
We would highly recommend Shanjoy Tours & Safaris to anyone looking for a professional and memorable safari experience. Thank you for making our trip so special!
Thanks Patrick, Beth, Kimani, Elly, Duncan. Asante sana !

We enjoyed our 10 day trip arranged by Shanjoy, the guides were great and the choice of lodging was well suited for our budget. The staff was great to work with, accommodating of all requests and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend the company to anyone looking to book a safari tour.
