Unforgettable Safari!
We spent 7 unforgettable days with Silver Spark Africa Safaris, and the entire trip was absolutely amazing. We visited every park as outlined in our itinerary, and everything ran smoothly exactly as planned. We were fortunate to see all the animals we had hoped for, including some very rare species in Samburu National Park.
Our guide, John, was friendly, patient and very knowledgeable. He shared fascinating insights about wildlife as well as local culture, which made the experience even more enriching.
We later extended our journey to Tanzania’s Ndutu Area for the calving season, and it turned out to be a once in a lifetime experience. From the initial planning stages to the accommodations and guiding, everything was handled perfectly.
The staff at our lodges were welcoming and well organized, ensuring a smooth and comfortable stay throughout. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, professional and responsive.
Thank you, Silver Spark Africa Safaris, for delivering such an incredible safari experience. It truly exceeded our expectations.

Well organised, excellent team!
We communicated with Abongo throughout the entire booking process for our safari, and he was incredibly responsive, professional and helpful from start to finish. He ensured that every detail was well arranged and that we felt fully supported both before and after our trip.
Abongo connected us with Samwel as our safari guide, and we could not have asked for a better experience. Samwel took exceptional care of us throughout the journey. Whenever we encountered even the smallest issue, he addressed it immediately and ensured everything was handled smoothly.
Our game drives were truly unique compared to other safaris we have experienced, both morning and evening game drive. Samwel was always ahead of schedule, actively communicating on the radio to locate wildlife, bigFive and making special efforts to help us find the animals we were most interested in seeing. His knowledge was impressive he answered all of our questions promptly and shared detailed insights about the wildlife, ecosystem and local culture throughout the safari. He was consistently punctual, always early for meetings and departures and remained flexible with our daily itinerary, adjusting plans based on our preferences and requests.
This was, without question, the most enjoyable safari we have ever experienced. We highly recommend Silver Spark Africa Safaris and Samwel to anyone seeking a professional, well-organized and truly unforgettable African safari adventure.

Excellent work, great Safari!
We had an incredible 13-day safari in Kenya and Tanzania with Silver Spark Africa. We visited Lake Bogoria, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli National Park, Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, and Maasai Mara National Reserve, it was truly an unforgettable wildlife adventure, including exploring the Mara Triangle and crossing between Kenya and Tanzania. With our guide Samwel, we saw the Big Five and so many animals like zebras, wildebeests, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, flamingos, pelicans, and many bird species. Lake Bogoria was especially amazing for birdlife.
We were lucky to visit during the calving season in Serengeti National Park and saw many baby animals. In Amboseli National Park, we saw baby elephants with their mothers, and in Maasai Mara National Reserve, we watched playful lion cubs, such a special experience. Everything was perfectly organized by Kevin. Our guides, Samwel in Kenya and Babu in Tanzania, were professional, knowledgeable, and easy to communicate with. Even during the rainy season, they drove safely and made sure we never got stuck. Samwel always found the best spots for viewing and photos, which made the experience even better.
This safari exceeded all our expectations. We highly recommend Silver Spark Africa and especially Samwel as a guide for anyone planning a trip to Kenya.
An Unforgettable Family Safari Across Kenya"
My family and I had an incredible safari experience with Silver Spark Africa Safaris, visiting Lake Bogoria, Lake Nakuru, Maasai Mara, Lake Elementaita and Amboseli National Park. From start to finish, the trip was exceptionally well organized and the accommodations exceeded our expectations. Our communication with Kevin and Abongo before, during and even after the safari was outstanding. They were always responsive, professional and attentive to our needs, accommodating all of our requests including arranging an airport pickup and transfer to our hotel on the first day, outside of our itinerary.
Our driver-guide, Samwel, was fantastic. He was friendly, knowledgeable and had an incredible ability to spot wildlife that we would have otherwise missed. His expertise and enthusiasm greatly enhanced our safari experience. The entire Silver Spark Africa Safaris team were excellent and everyone communicated fluently in English, making the journey smooth and enjoyable. Although our itinerary was packed with exciting destinations, everything was perfectly paced. We were able to experience all the highlights without ever feeling rushed, allowing us to fully enjoy each park and wildlife encounter.
We traveled in a safari minivan that was far more comfortable and well equipped than we had anticipated. The vehicle featured Wi-Fi, charging ports and a pop-up roof, which made game viewing both convenient and enjoyable. One of our favorite accommodations was Lake Nakuru Lodge, located inside the park itself. Staying within the park added a special touch to our experience and allowed us to maximize our time in nature. This safari created wonderful memories for our family, and we are already considering bringing our parents to Kenya for their own safari adventure. When we do, we will not hesitate to book with Silver Spark Africa Safaris again.
Thank you to the entire team for a truly memorable and unforgettable experience

Wonderful experience!!
My husband and I booked the 11-day Kenya–Tanzania safari package starting in Nairobi, and it turned out to be one of the best travel experiences we have ever had. We had to arrange this safari at the last minute after changing our original travel plans to South Africa, and Silver Spark Africa Safaris was incredibly accommodating. Without their flexibility and professionalism, we would have missed out on an unforgettable African adventure.
From the moment we were picked up in Nairobi to our final drop-off at Arusha Airport, everything went exactly according to the itinerary. The entire safari was exceptionally well organized, with excellent communication from both our Kenyan and Tanzanian guides. Every aspect of the trip was thoughtfully planned, and the accommodations offered great comfort and value for money. The wildlife experiences exceeded our expectations. In Amboseli National Park, I captured breathtaking photos of Mount Kilimanjaro towering behind a herd of elephants an image I will treasure forever. At Lake Nakuru, we were amazed by the thousands of flamingos lining the shores. Throughout Maasai Mara and Serengeti National Parks, we encountered large herds of elephants and buffalo, as well as hyenas, ostriches, giraffes and countless other animals in their natural habitat.
One of the highlights of the trip was in the Serengeti, where our Tanzanian driver and guide, Babu showed incredible patience and dedication. He allowed us to spend as much time as we wanted observing a cheetah during an exciting hunt, creating a truly unforgettable wildlife moment. As travelers from America visiting this part of the world for the first time, we felt safe, welcomed, and well cared for throughout the journey. Silver Spark Africa Safaris delivered an outstanding experience from start to finish. Thank you for making our dream African safari a reality. We highly recommend Silver Spark Africa Safaris to anyone seeking a memorable, well-organized, and authentic safari experience.

Amazing Experience Safari!
We had an amazing 4-day Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru safari with Silver Spark Africa, and it exceeded all our expectations.
Our tour guide, Samwel, was outstanding throughout the entire safari. He was knowledgeable, professional, and always willing to answer our questions about the wildlife and Maasai culture. On our first day in the Maasai Mara, he made our visit to the Maasai village especially enjoyable and informative. Thanks to his experience, we spotted many animals that we would have otherwise missed, making every game drive exciting and memorable. We also loved our accommodations, which were clean, comfortable, and offered excellent food and service.
A special thanks to Kevin, who made sure everyone, was comfortable and well taken care of throughout the trip. He kept us informed during the game drives and went above and beyond by arranging a wonderful Nairobi city excursion after we returned from the safari. When our Kenya Airways flight was delayed by almost more than three hours due to a technical issue, Kevin even helped us secure a hotel where we could freshen up and relax while waiting for our flight.
The dedication and exceptional service provided by both Samwel and Kevin made this safari truly unforgettable. We highly recommend Silver Spark Africa to anyone looking for a well-organized, memorable, and enjoyable safari experience in Kenya.

Perfectly arranged – Highly Recommended!
We had an incredible time exploring Kenya and Tanzania. Every moment of our safari was beyond expectations, and seeing the wildlife we had dreamed of in real life was an indescribably breathtaking experience. From the stunning landscapes to the carefully planned itinerary, everything was thoughtfully arranged by Kelvin, making our journey smooth and memorable. The accommodations, meals and overall organization were excellent.
A special mention goes to our amazing safari guide, Samwel, who truly made this trip exceptional. His passion, experience, and incredible knowledge of wildlife were outstanding. With his sharp eyes, excellent binocular skills and deep understanding of animal behavior, he was able to spot wildlife that many others missed. We were especially lucky to witness a beautiful leopard along the riverbank on our second day in the Maasai Mara near Mara Rianta a moment we will never forget.
Samwel’s knowledge across the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater was impressive. He knew the best locations to find animals and shared fascinating insights throughout our journey. He was patient, thoughtful, professional and always ensured we had the best possible experience.
We would also like to thank Babu, our guide in Tanzania, who took excellent care of us. He drove safely and comfortably, even on some of Tanzania’s challenging roads, and always reminded us of important travel tips. He was friendly, patient and answered every question we had with great enthusiasm and knowledge. From the first day in Kenya to our final day in Arusha, the entire safari was absolutely amazing. The breathtaking scenery, incredible wildlife encounters, and exceptional guides made this a journey of a lifetime. This safari was truly perfect, and we would happily return again. We highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an unforgettable African adventure! Thank you, Kelvin, Samwel, Babu, and the entire team at Silver Spark Africa for making our dream safari a reality.
