Flexible, communicative and customisable
I booked a safari for my family and exchanged numerous calls and emails with Martin during the course of planning the trip. He was personable, patient and understanding when it came to us needing time to make certain decisions or having to make changes due to unexpected events. During the actual trip, we were in constant contact with him and he helped us ensure that everything was run smoothly. The driver/guide, accommodations, food and game drives surpassed our expectations and the Martin certainly played an irreplaceable role in our wonderful safari experience.

super customer service and flexibility
We booked the safari with mr. Martin, from the beginning the communication was smooth and clear, he adapted our trip to our necessities and budget. When we had troubles with our flight he immediately readapted the tour with last minute notice multiple times due to our problems. The safari was amazing and the drivers super helpful and amazing guys overall. I cannot be more happy with my experience with this tour operator.

In search of a safaris to help me in my tour journey to Kenya, A friend of mine happened to recommend Super Africa wildlife and Adventure Safaris where she gave me Mr Martins contacts. I was able to contact him and he was a very reliable person. He organised for my pick up at the airport by our driver and guide Mr David. He was able to take us explore Kenya's diverse ecosystem and each day brought new surprises and unforgettable moments. Kudos to SAWAS
Passionate about his work
My family and I had the ultimate best safari experience we have heard in a long time. Being a 2days trip with super Africa wildlife and adventure safaris I have nothing to complain about but to say this is one of the best companies in africa .
Game drives were always early in the morning after scrumptious mptious breakfast and later return to our Lodge later in the evening . After breakfast we had a moment of a full day just spending time in the park with my family and also the packed-lunch which we had been provided with by our guide Mr Benson. We witnessed the raw beauty of Tsavo's red-dust plains and were mesmerized by the sea of pink flamingos on Lake Bogoria and later to Maasai Mara where we had our hot air balloon experience. The guides' knowledge and professionalism made the trip enjoyable and educational. I was touched by Super Africa's dedication to wildlife preservation and their efforts to support local communities. This safari journey will forever hold a special place in my heart.

His knowledge of the wildlife was incomparable.The itinerary was planned very well. Special thanks to Mr martin the manager who was very responsive and quick to attend all our needs. I could proudly say that we received great service from your team. All the hotels that accommodated us were clean and felt like home. The staff served us the best inclusive of their yummy foods. We had so much fun in our game drives in Amboseli, lake nakuru and Ysavo and this trip being our first time to try a hot air balloon, the team made it an experience never to be forgotten. Kudos team SAWAS.

Honest company with great customer service
Early this year a friend of mine in the corporate world referred me to super africa wildlife and adventure safaris to organize my safari holiday and I must say that since then, I have not only found my favourite travel agent and tour operator but a new family friend who ensured that my wife, son and I had a memorable holiday experience along the Kenyan national parks .
The relationship started from the first time i contacted mr martin to inquire about the safari. He was so friendly and welcoming. Everything was seamless, I felt safe and comfortable making payments and when the safari ensued, we never had a single hitch and Mr martin kept calling every evening to find out if we had any problem with the safari or anything that we felt should be improved ,our driver and overall experience.
my family and I won’t hesitate recommending anyone including companies that would like to engage with super Africa wildlife and adventure safaris for a wonderful experience.

Trustworthy and honest tour guide company
It's impossible to summarise one of the most incredible experiences of our lives, the feeling of being just feet away from gorillas is just indescribable! Our guide shuma picked us up from our hotel and drove us to mgahinga. The drive was through the most beautiful scenery and shuma was amazing at answering all of our many questions! His vast knowledge about Uganda meant that none of our questions went unanswered, and on the drive he was great at pointing out many different places and interesting facts. He was an absolutely a nice guide and made the whole trip run very smoothly, going above and beyond to ensure all our needs were met! He was a genuinely lovely person and one of the best tour guides to be around, making the trip even more amazing!
Our accommodation beyond exceed our expectations, the staff were all absolutely wonderful and the view from the lodge was incredible. They were also great at catering to our dietary requirements and the food was delicious.
The trekking was fantastic, our guide was extremely knowledgeable and more than willing to answer all of our questions, no matter how petty they were.The gorillas were just incredible, we were able to get so close to them and one of the baby gorillas even came right up to us and we managed to feed it. Spending time with the gorillas is something we will never forget and we hope to come back in the future! Thumbs-up team SAWAS

Professional tour guide company
My solo trip to Lake Nakuru with Super Africa Wildlife Adventures and Safaris was an incredible adventure. The peaceful ambiance of the lake, coupled with the abundance of wildlife, made it a nature lover's on paradise. The knowledgeable guides ensured I had a rewarding experience, and the personalized service made me feel safe and well taken care of. Lake Nakuru's stunning pink flamingos, diverse birdlife, and the opportunity to spot endangered rhinos made this journey truly unforgettable. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a tranquil and wildlife-rich solo getaway. Shoutout to Mr Martin and the team for making it a success

EXCELLENCE IN EVERY CATEGORY! AFFORDABLE WITH AMAZING SERVICE
There are many areas to compliment Super Africa Wildlife And Safaris (SAWAS). Above all else the level of commitment of Mr Martin and guides Sammy, John, Emmanuel and William to ensure we have the highest quality experience and engagement with both wildlife and the incredible African people and their culture.
There are moments from this two-week life altering experience I will never forget. Among them being in a hot air balloon at daybreak in the Mara with zebras and giraffes and elephants in a synchronicity almost you'd think planned. Every park that we went to in both Kenya and Tanzania was an immersive Wonderlust that only a few will ever experience. I am indeed blessed.
From an affordability factor I have organized large numbers of people over the course of my life as a nurse and never had the privilege of meeting people who loves their country so much they want to share it with as many people as possible. It's that philosophy and commitment to their culture that adds an otherwise missing layer that people do not realize they are missing. I combed every corner looking for the best value with the best accommodations and requiring all parks visited in both Kenya and Tanzania. I had almost given up. SAWAS made sure we saw all of them and experienced all components.
The accommodations from hotels, cottages, lodges, and a luxury permanent tented lodge in the Serengeti were all exceptional. My biggest fear was that I would be hot or in a dirty environment with lots of bugs. That did not happen in any location at any time. I rested comfortably. I had the protection of mosquito nets as well as developed properties to ensure minimal exposure. We always had comfortable petting with big pillows and soft linens and our en suite bathroom and a private shower with hot water and electricity. I felt like a queen.
The all inclusive affordability cannot be mentioned enough. When you land in Nairobi they are there with a personalized placard to pick you up and take you to a nearby hotel so that you can shower after a long travel day and have a bite to eat to prepare for your Safari that begins the next day. The hotel we stayed that night was exceptionally clean and full service. They even provided us a full meal room service because we were delayed thanks to a layover in Europe.
The first day you will experience the Giraffe Sanctuary. The admission and travel costs to and from is already included. You will get to experience the wonder of this sanctuary. Throughout this entire 12 days only reach for your wallet if you want to buy some thing extra or have an alcoholic beverage.
From there we headed towards the Maasai Mara stopping along the way for a very brief view and photo opportunity of the great rift valley. You will never forget putting your eyes upon this most magical place for the first time. There's an opportunity to get a drink and use the restroom as well as buy a souvenir. The drive to the Maasai Mara is long about 5 1/2 hours- 6 hours but it is not boring. It is comfortable with so much to look at and when you see your first safari animal the excitement just burns in your heart… For me it was a baboon!!! Sammy our guide told us great many things during this travel time about the history and culture of the places we were seeing and visiting.
He talk to us about the Great Maasai People and how they live in what is a modern world they are not exposed to. His knowledge base of animals and culture was surpassed by any expectation I may have had.
Upon arriving to the Mara you will be taken care of including luggage service escorted to your accommodation with private bathroom to freshen up or take a rest if you like. Every evening you have a full several course dinner and a personal chef who can prepare things in such a way for you. If you are celebrating a birthday or anniversary the party they can put together in 15 minutes is better than that and you'll see on a cruise ship!!
The following days are full day game drives including a boxed lunch and unlimited bottled water while on game drives. You will see so many animals you won't know where to look it's like gazing at the stars in the sky at night. Every animal very unique and beautiful some statuesque. You will see zebras and giraffes of various kinds. You will learn how to tell the difference between a cheetah and a leopard. You will see the hippo pool although it's the smell you're likely to never forget. You will . You will see zebras and giraffes of various kinds. You will learn how to tell the difference between a cheetah and a leopard. You will see the hippo pool although it's the smell you're likely to never forget. You will see lots of warthogs the African people lovingly call Pumbas. And of course the cats.
Sammy taught us that the cats do not get along ever. For the most part of the animal kingdom functions as intended but most live harmoniously among each other except for the cats. It does not matter what kind of cat is it automatically hates all other cats and May go out of its way to annoy it and if necessary fight. We saw lionesses stalking gazelles while the male lions watched. We saw a lioness is climbing trees. We saw lions mating. We saw cheetahs that we cannot fathom how our guides saw them hidden among the beautiful grasses in the savannah of the Mara.
The optional hot air balloon in the morrow is worth 10 times what you pay. I will never forget be awakened at 3 AM to be picked up and driven to the launching site. The rest of the morning will live forever in my heart. Watching the sun rise over the horizon And the sound of the fire into the balloon being the only sound of about 14 of us who were so mesmerized by what we were feeling and seeing not one word was spoken for quite some time. The silence is a type of silence you've never experienced before. It's peaceful yet joyful. I hope my children and grandchildren will one day get to experience and feel what I was able to experience on this remarkable adventure. After the hot air balloon ride you are seated at a table set up like a boy bush breakfast complete with champagne and a festive environment with your newfound friends.
There are wildebeests, Water Bucks, Impalas, Dik Dik's, Vultures, antelope, buffalo, ostriches, wild dogs, hyenas, crocodiles, mongoose, flamingos, cranes, eagles jackals and elephants in every direction each doing their own thing while you stare in absolute wonder. We were able to witness all of this from the comfort of a Safari vehicle with a pop top roof for photography and panoramic viewing. We each had our own window seat and were informed and educated at every opportunity. It was great fun to hear in Swahili all of the guides exchanging information on their satellite radios to inform others when they spotted an animal or an interaction. As I speak of this my heart races. I forgot my binoculars and of course professional binoculars are in each vehicle.
The food was wonderful with a special emphasis on authentic African dishes. I have a very special diet that restricts much of my intake yet Mr. Martin and his staff took the list of my requirements from my physician and gave that information to each chef one on one so they were able to provide me with what I needed. WOW!! The accommodations and restaurants also provide alcoholic beverages and sodas for additional costs if you like. I know some in our group loved the adventure of trying a native African beer at every place we stayed. It was great fun.
The level of service provided by Mr Martin and his staff and the African people as a whole was superb. It's a wonderful feeling to be surrounded by a people who love their land and who they are and what they represent. I learned so much not only about animals in Africa and climate change which are all important topics but I got just a brief glimpse into the spirit of a nation that is so beloved by all.
Lake Nakuru was very favored by our group. A huge density in variety of animals in a smaller space than a Mara three large child like senses of immediate gratification. I felt like my granddaughter saying more, more, and more! One morning as we left our comfortable and climate controlled and bug free beautiful room in route to have a delightful breakfast in the early morning hours when a troop of baboons and their babies started jumping fences and all of a sudden just took over the whole landscape. We just stood there and watched how they interact with each other and with the babies. Even more shocking when they noticed us and decided to pick up anything they could reach to throw at us. We couldn't believe it! It was delightful then they went howling off into the distance. This particular accommodation provided nighttime entertainment in the form of a night swim as well as entertainment of jugglers, dancers and magic. It was a nice contribution to an already spectacular experience.
Our time at a Amboseli did not disappoint. Once again the plentiful interactions of dozens of types of animals in different types of environments and activities was a joy to witness. Mount Kilimanjaro as a backdrop and the elephants calculate too many to count with their beautiful little babies who were so playful. We all laughed out loud till we cried at some of their interaction because mama elephant was getting tired of baby elephant over and over.
The vehicle was very comfortable with a constant beautiful breeze. There were times in the Mara when it was hot but there was always a breeze and there was no humidity to be noted. We wore sunscreen and bug spray. I should note to prepare yourself there aren't roads in these national parks. The only roads that exist so those have been made over the years by people doing safaris or traveling or photography or movie sets so at times the ride can be quite bumpy. They jokingly call it an African massage. You will quickly adapt and sometimes it contributes to the experience of what you're saying and doing.
Safety protocols were always on point. The guides in the vehicle as well as communicating with each other had a constant awareness of our safety and maintained it. At no time at any park at any time did I ever feel unsafe or in danger. I can take that a step further and say until I'm writing this review I never even thought about it. Impeccable trained and committed staff.
The fact that I was able to experience all of these amazing adventures in multiple parks with every day being completely different than the one before for the same price I normally would have spent to rent a house on the beach in Florida makes me cringe. How many years have I wasted money on sitting in the sand staring at water when I could've been wrapped in joy and knowledge and love and true bewilderment.
