An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Ayubu – Reliable, Skilled, and Truly Professional
Over Christmas 2024, my family of seven enjoyed an incredible 11-day safari across Kenya and Tanzania. Ayubu, our guide, made the trip truly special with his professionalism, sharp eye for wildlife, and exceptional driving skills. From early starts to perfectly planned days, he ensured everything went smoothly, and his choice of accommodations was spot on.
We were also impressed by his thoughtful care for his vehicle—a brand-new car that handled every terrain with ease, always spotless, equipped with charging ports, and even had relaxing music on our final day.
What made the trip even more memorable was Ayubu sharing his rich cultural heritage. From stories about his wedding and tribal traditions to insights into his family, he brought an extra layer of depth to our adventure.
Thank you, Ayubu, for such a wonderful journey. We wish you great success in your career and hope to see you in Chengdu, China, someday!

A Memorable Safari Adventure in East Africa – Thank You, Ayubu!
In December 2024, during the Christmas season, my family of seven embarked on an incredible 11-day safari journey through Kenya and Tanzania. It turned out to be an unforgettable experience that exceeded our expectations in every way.
Thanks to Ayubu, our skilled and dedicated guide, we were able to witness nearly all the wildlife this season had to offer. From countless wildebeests, hippos, antelopes, lions, and elephants to rare sightings of rhinos and leopards, every day was filled with awe and excitement. Ayubu is a quiet yet hardworking and sincere individual, always ensuring we made the most of our time. His meticulous planning allowed us to enjoy early starts and full days immersed in nature.
All the accommodations Ayubu selected for us were excellent, and the itinerary was well-thought-out, leaving us with lasting memories of this once-in-a-lifetime trip. As a driver and guide, he proved to be reliable, professional, and highly experienced, and his effort and dedication made our journey truly special.
As Chinese travelers, we also appreciated the hot meals he provided during our journey. If there’s one suggestion I could make, it would be to add some wildlife pictures and names in the vehicle. This would be especially helpful for those of us who are not fluent in English, making the experience even more enjoyable.
Thank you, Ayubu, for your hard work and care. You made our East African safari an adventure we will cherish forever!

The Sharp-Eyed Guide Who Always Spots the Wildlife
During the Christmas period of 2024, my family of seven, including my spouse, our child, and both sets of parents, embarked on a trip to East Africa. After researching and communicating with about 20 travel agencies, we chose Ayubu. He wasn't the cheapest option, but his attentive and sincere communication during the planning stage stood out. He responded earnestly to every question and took into account our elderly and young family members, offering thoughtful suggestions for our itinerary.
Over the course of our 11-day Safari, we had a fantastic time and saw virtually all the wildlife that one could expect to encounter during this season. Ayubu was always considerate, preparing hot meals that catered to the preferences of my Chinese parents. He also provided wine or coffee, which met the expectations of my French in-laws.
Ayubu is a man of few words but is diligent and dedicated. We had long days of early departures and late returns, and I was very satisfied with all the hotels he arranged for us. The entire trip was unforgettable. In summary, Ayubu is a reliable, experienced, and professional driver and guide. I want to express my gratitude for his hard work and attention to detail.

They made our dreams come true
It's been the trip of our life. I would recommend it 100x100. They made our dream trip come true.
First of all, we were so lucky with the driver Ayoub. He's very polite, funny and the best Big5 finder. We saw all the lions, cheetah, leopard, elephant, giraffe so close... and WE SAW THE RINO ASWELL.
All because of the experience and the knowhow of our new friend Ayoubu.
The food on the trips was really tasty and healthy as I like!!! And the coffee is special, so tasty..
Can't wait to be back there.
I would rate all the experience with the words EXCELLENT AND MAGIC

Exceptional Safari Experience with Ayubu, my guide
I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for the incredible safari experience Ayubu provided during our recent trip.
From the moment we set off, his passion for wildlife and deep knowledge of the ecosystem were evident. His ability to share fascinating insights about the animals, their behaviors, and the environment truly enriched my experience. I was not just observing wildlife; but also learning about the delicate balance of nature and the importance of conservation.
His keen eye for spotting animals, even in the most hidden corners of the park, was impressive. Thanks to his expertise, I was fortunate enough to witness some breathtaking moments, including the amazing prides of lions and their cubs in almost all the parks we visited, the wonderful elephant herds in Tarangire, the fascinating baboons in Manyara and many more. These memories will stay with me forever.
Moreover, his friendly demeanor, sense of humour, and willingness to answer all my questions made me feel comfortable and engaged throughout the journey. He created a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making every moment enjoyable. It was clear that he genuinely cares about his guests and the wildlife, and that passion made all the difference.
Thank you once again for an unforgettable experience. I strongly recommend you to my friends and family, as well as to the readers of this review. I look forward to joining you on another safari in the future!
I should add that his choice of accommodation was excellent except for the last night in Arusha! I did not like the accommodation .
Thanks again Ayubu.

Ayubu Delivers the Most Inspiring, Safe and Fun Safari Experience
Ayubu was not only deeply knowledgeable about the routes and terrain but also had an incredible insight for the wildlife we encountered. He spot animals from a distance and share fascinating anecdotes into their behaviors and habitats. Whether it was lions lounging in the shade, elephants moving majestically through the plains, or giraffes strolling in the trees, our guide knew exactly where to take us for the best views.
His driving skills were impeccable as well, effortlessly navigating the rugged and uneven terrain, ensuring we felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire journey. We got perfect shots of the wildbeests crossing the Mara river and close up photos of vultures enjoying their feasts. Ayubu even helped up took some pictures from afar, which was super helpful.
If you don't want to get lost when it gets dark and just enjoy the nature and the animals, Ayubu is the guide to go with!! Highly recommended to all!

A fantastic trip to Safari
The Serengeti Landscape (5/5):
The Serengeti's vast plains, teeming with an abundance of wildlife, provided a breathtaking spectacle. Witnessing the Great Migration was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, with thousands of wildebeest and zebras moving in unison across the savannah. The iconic acacia trees, punctuating the horizon, added to the picturesque beauty of the region.
Guide's Expertise (5/5):
Our guide Ayubu was the linchpin of this remarkable journey. His deep understanding of the Serengeti's ecosystems, wildlife habits, and birdlife enriched our experience immeasurably. His passion for conservation and commitment to responsible tourism shone through in their informative commentary, providing context to every sighting. Patient, personable, and with an infectious enthusiasm for the region, our guide elevated the safari from a mere expedition to a true learning experience.
Accommodations and Logistics (4.5/5):
The lodges we stayed in were comfortable, offering a blend of luxury and an authentic safari experience. From the game drives to meals and accommodations, everything was meticulously planned, allowing us to focus on the wonders of the Serengeti.
