Thank you for a wonderful trip
5/5

“ Very well organized – all connections went smoothly. Very knowledgeable guides. I have been in safari previously but the services i received on my last 8 day tour with African Paradise Safaris was excellent. The driver worked very hard to ensure our safety as well as our viewing pleasure and ensured we were comfortable at all times. I will definitely be coming again & definitely book my safari with African Paradise. Thank you for a most amazing trip.

The best overall Wildlife Safari I've experienced in Sub-Sahara Africa
5/5

My company is Australian based and I have personally been more than 50 years associated with the International Travel Industry. On retirement I created a boutique operation "African Wildlife Adventures" to take past clients and friends to see the magnificent animals of the Sub-Sahara. "African Paradise Safaris" - and Peter Maina was introduced to me via a colleague and is now my partner operator based ex Nairobi Kenya. We have just completed a 19 day two country programme visiting Kenya & Tanzania, and other than for one tented camp (we stayed at eleven individual properties during this period) all other ten were 4 plus star hotels or lodges. Meals were on a full board basis and the food was excellent and the variety amazing. We covered some 2000 + kms on the journey in 4x4 Toyota Safari style pop top vehicles, without either a break down or mishap. Our team of drivers both in Kenya - Dixon & David whilst in Tanzania - Jacob & Moses were excellent, knew their vehicles well and drove to the road and traffic conditions, all vehicles used were comfortable and reliable. Some of the roads-tracks are hard going and need both care and skill to negotiate or drivers had both. Kenyan tourist vehicles can't be used in Tanzania and V.V., so you change over at the boarder crossings. When travelling through Africa my recommendation is to pack what you think you need, then take half of what you packed out then take what is left and pack it in a soft duffle style lockable bag as against a hard suitcase, it makes for easier stowage in the limited baggage area in the 4x4's. One thing that can't be guaranteed on Safari is what you'll see where, as animals just don't run to a schedule, but at each and every National Park or Reserve visited the animals were as if pre-organised and waiting for our visit! Our schedule had us visiting Nairobi, Amboseli, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngoro Ngoro, Serengeti, Maasi Mara, Lake Nakuru, Aberdare, Samburu and Meru. Ngoro was a highlight - I've never seen so many different species all in the one place at the one time and why would they ever leave the Ngoro crater when it is abundant with food. The wilderbeast migration on the Serengeti was a sight to behold, viewed from a well placed Kojpe. Hundreds of thousands of wilderbeast lead by zebra were spread out in columns as far as the eye could see to the horizon. Although April is supposed to be in the "wet" season we didn'r experience any problems that effected our journey, there was plenty of grass cover that attracted large herds as well this time of year there is an abundance of new born animals, such as elephant, zebra, giraffe and lion cubs. When visiting East Africa in fact anywhere in Africa you have to do the distances to see it well, and with Peters help we saw more than we expected. African Paradise Safaris organisation was first class and with Peter's company made every thing happen - well done partner. Dennis J. Weatherall CEO African Wildlife Adventures - Sydney Australia
