Professional service - Excellent safari guides
We - 4 adults - approached Kenya Tanzania Safari in order to tailor an individual trip for us visiting the following 5 nationalparks and come up with suggestions to accommodations as well
Masai Mara Game Reserve
Serengeti National Park
Ngorongoro Crater
Tarangire
Amboseli
The booking process was professional and our questions was replied swiftly. The safari was a great experience and we saw all we wanted to see and was blessed with very nice guides that knew pretty much everything we asked about. The accommodation – medium std – more than met our expectations as well
We had 8 days and would probably leave out Tarangire should we go again and use the extra time at Amboseli or Serengeti in stead.
I huge thanks to Niki, Eliud and Augustino for giving us a once in a lifetime experience.
A Memorable Trip to Kenya and Tanzania
Nico from Destination Consultants was very helpful and patient when arranging our trip to Kenya and Tanzania. We opted for a 12 day private guided tour whereby we had three different tour guides in that time. The first vehicle we travelled in from Nairobi from Tanzania was not great as the seats were so high and the windows were low so it was not great for motion sickness however the driver allowed me to sit in the front seat which was fine, the vehicle we had on our second leg was a proper safari vehicle which was great. The itinerary suggested was quite good although could have left out Lake Navaisha which had a few hand fed hippos out the back and that was it, so our time could have been better spent elsewhere. The accommodation overall was excellent except for Tukaone Camps in Serengeti which was below average. The camp itself was on a lean, the food was average and we did not have hot water until the day before we left. What made it more disappointing was that this camp was not where we were supposed to stay as I had requested to stay at another camp. Before undertaking this tour, we did a 16 day group tour through South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana which we did a variety a of activities such as hiking, canoeing into the delta and Safari drives. This particular tour only had safari drives for its activities which is perfect if it was the only place you were going in Africa but for us, we found the safaris became repetitious towards the end of the trip.

Dependable, Caring and effusive- Will we go again with his tour company? A definite Yes.
In August 2023, our group of 14 embarked on a 10-day private safari across Kenya and Tanzania, a journey we began planning nearly a year prior. Throughout the process, Niko and Susan were instrumental in ensuring our experience was seamless, even though there were occasional communication delays.
Upon our arrival at Nairobi Airport, Susan warmly welcomed us. We had a free day in Nairobi before our tour began, and at our request, Niko promptly arranged a van, allowing us to explore the city thoroughly.
Our adventure took us through Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, North Serengeti, Central Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Amboseli national parks. The first, second, and last parks are located in Kenya, while the others are in Tanzania.
Our guides, handpicked by Niko, were not only knowledgeable but also went above and beyond to enhance our experience. In Kenya, Adson and George led the way, followed by Adson and Julius. In Tanzania, Denis and Alfany took the reins. Their kindness, patience, and passion for nature were evident as they introduced us to the wonders of the wild. We were fortunate to witness the diverse fauna, including the "Big 5", and the awe-inspiring great migration of wildebeests from Tanzania to Kenya across the Mara River.
Our stays at the Serena hotels, Lion Sarova in Nakuru, the Canvas tents under the Mara, and Ole Sarai camp were nothing short of luxurious. Throughout the trip, Niko maintained close communication with our guides, ensuring every detail was perfect.
On behalf of our group, I extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone involved. This journey has etched unforgettable memories in our hearts.

This trip exceeded all of our expectations!
It’s been a couple of months since we returned from our private Kenya and Tanzania safari arranged by The Destination Consultants. Boaz and Susan were easy to communicate with and provided us with all the information we needed to make this a once in a lifetime trip. We were very impressed with all aspects of our safari and especially with our guides Eliud in Kenya and Raymond in Tanzania. They were fantastic guides! It was very obvious they both were extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the parks and animals we saw. And we all learned so much about the animals and the Massai people. The tented camps were well equipped - internet was a plus! The food was excellent, as were all the staff at the camps. The EnkaKenya Camp was a real treat - we received first class service and meals there. We did have more “African massages” than we remembered from our 2009 safari to Kenya! Be assured that should we ever have the opportunity to return to Kenya we will be in touch with you.
