Reviews
We came for the wild animals and we left inspired by the Kenyan people!
As travelers from Palo Alto, we researched everything online and communicated via email. We wired money and got yellow fever shots (at a premium, by the way) and arrived some days later via Emirates/Dubai. After spraying enough bug spray on ourselves and rubbing enough ..thon in all skin exposed area, we were ready to embark upon our safari. Our guide was impressively knowledgeable about the land, the people, animals, birds, etc. Our cameras snapped great photos and evening dinners and conversations connected our group of 4 families traveling together.
On the first day of the trip, we all spoke about our anxiety of bug bites, snakes, ferocious wild animals charging at us, etc. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Our accommodations were very high quality and bathrooms clean. Some plumbing was rusty due to the humidity in the jungle, but nothing that could not be cured with a few hotel towels.
On the last day of the trip, we gathered again after dinner to do a 'debrief.' It was amazing to hear how everyone (12 of us) no longer focused on our anxieties, but spoke about the majestic nature of the wild animals, e.g., the first lone male giraffe, the kindness of the people, e.g., our omelets makers, etc., and getting back to nature and the basics of human existence.
Yes, the mosquitoes were still around; as were the monkeys, giraffes, zebras, birds on some hotel grounds. Sleeping under the mosquito nets and keeping the windows closed solved that problem. But, after we got used to being in Kenya, we grew to respect the land, love the people, and wishing our trip was just a bit longer.
If you ever get a chance to visit Kenya, don't think. Just do it!

Very well planned and selection of lodges and transport service the best.
Must say I had a wonderful safari tour. Everything was planned and executed so well. The transportating of us by(Ilors drivers) from place to place was great. They were very personable and informative and alway on time. I enjoyed each
lodge and each lodge charactor was a little different. Going on safari drives
were exciting and fun. Not knowing what animal I would see today. And before
we left I saw the Big 5, plus. Looking forward to the next trip.

My experience with Africa Nziza Odysseys was exceptionally FANTASTIC!!!
Our travel adventure to Uganda with Africa Nziza Odysseys exceeded our expectations on every level. The experience was OUTSTANDING!!!
Mr. Bernard Alineitwe, our travel organizer, demonstrated the greatest level of concern for the implementation of every detail that enhanced our safari journey. He consistently catered to the concerns of every member of our group and provided unique opportunities that allowed us to create exciting, lifetime memories! The service that we enjoyed at every safari location was EXCELLENT.
It was obvious that significant thought, and detailed planning, went into the preparation of our trip. We would not hesitate to recommend Africa Nziza Odysseys to our family and friends. In fact, we intend to use their excellent services for our next African Adventure this year!!

Attention to detail, knowledgeable, very helpful and courteous.
Bernard delivered on what he promised. He is resourceful, honest and tireless in delivering what he said he would do. He was able to assist us on basically no notice (a few days whereas we were advised online that normal access may take 6 months advance notice) to obtain proper and legitimate access through the correct government channels and authorities to see the Mountain Gorillas in Bwindi, Uganda. He is a small boutique solution provider that can assist tourists and adventurers on many fronts: transportation, accommodation, park access passes, trip planning etc. He took marvelous care of myself and two daughters with proper follow up and attention to detail. A five star level of service. We will use his services again when we next visit Uganda (or surrounding countries). Definitely a name and company that you should place in your address book. Thanks so much Bernard: Gary, Megan and Jackie.

Africa Nziza Odysseys is my go-to tour operator for East Africa.
I'm a travel agent who works with tour operators and travel providers across the whole of Africa. Africa Nziza Odysseys have helped me immensely in providing a 5-star experience for my clients, who come back raving about the experience and service they provide. They value ethics and professionalism very highly, and never fail to not only live up to expectations, but go above and beyond them whenever possible.

Michelle most excellent Swahili Coast 50th Birthday!
The service was excellent! Priscilla was so attentive and made sure we were satisfied. She was able to smooth out the one hiccup we had I am thoroughly impressed. Bernard went above and beyond just being a tour guide. He became our friend and photographer. He was extremely knowledgeable and made adjustments to our itinerary to fit our needs. I will recommend Africa Nziza Odysseys to all my family and friends.

Reliable and easy to work with with a friendly attitude.
I had a wonderful experience in Africa with this safari trip. The tour guide was very helpful and kind. They always made sure we were comfortable and had some fun stuff to tell us about the sites we visited. The sunsets I saw were absolutely gorgeous and the exotic animals were definitely something to remember for a lifetime. The staff were good about making sure we were comfortable and it was pretty easy planning and working with them. I will be coming back for sure. There is no place quite like Africa and Nziza Odysseys lets you experience the best of it.
