We truly enjoyed our safari
We had issues with our tour operator when we arrived in Tanzania. Our safari your got delayed by a day. My husband and I were really frustrated and annoyed knowing that a trip we planned almost 6 months ago wasn't going as planned. A friend of ours has contacted Wildebeest Safari and immediately our Safari guide contacted us and we were picked up from our hotel and were taken for safari.
I am really happy to write this review for Wildebeest Safari. As they were not only fast in reaching out to us, but was also very professional during our safari tour. Our guide Hamsa was very friendly. We know that we will go back for a Safari again with this company.

Great Experience!
Everything went smoothly from beginning to end. Our guide, David was knowledgeable, experienced and attentive and had a great eye for spotting game. He was a walking encyclopedia of birds, animals and plants and we also learned a lot about Tanzania in the process. The communication we received from eTrip before the trip was great and we were very well prepared for our safari. Probably our best vacation ever and we travel a lot.

Amazing Safari Experience! Saw all big 5 in one day
They very responsive to my questions, and reservations. Booked everything from airport pick up to transport from Narobi to Moshi. Ask them anything and they will give you suggestions or help your trip to Kenya easy!
Had a great 3 day tour to Masai Mara Safari. Guide was very active on the radio to see the Big 5 and we were so lucky to see not only the big five but 2 fresh kills in one game drive.
5 Stars! I will come back to Kenya again to do Amboseli

Very fund 5-day safari
Had a great time with Viva Safaris. Did a 5-day, 4-night safari, with the first night at Tremisana Lodge and the last 3 days at Marc's Treehouse. The various drives and walks to see animals were fantastic. We saw tons of animals and had knowledgeable guides who could tell us a lot about what we were seeing (and find more animals for us). The trip to the animal rehab center was fun, too. All in all, the safari was very well organized by all the Viva Safaris staff. The food provided was also very good, and they were very accommodating with dietary restrictions.
The one negative would be the accommodations. Our room at Tremisana Lodge was in poor condition and the bathroom was basically in the same room as the bed. This may have been an outlier room at Tremisana, but it was still below expectations, particularly since Tremisana is supposed to be one of their nicer lodges. Marc's Treehouse also was a bit disappointing. Only a few of the cabins were true treehouses - the rest were just cabins made of bamboo and tree branches. And because the property is sprawling, some of the cabins are a 10-15 minute walk from the main lodge area, which was inconvenient and difficult to do with suitcases.
The staff at both lodges was fantastic, though, and helpful at all times. Viva was also helpful in planning the trip, and answered all questions ahead of time. Highly recommend using Viva for a South African safari, but I would keep expectations regarding accommodations a bit low.

Just exactly what we were expecting in Africa with GoExplore
Brian’s Communication was prompt and clear from booking to the tour itself. He emailed us in an appropriate manner and answered all our questions and she was very helpful in helping us customize Gorilla tracking safari and Safari in Kenya. He was able to recommend different lodging choices and vehicle in the event of pick up and drop off at the airport, they were flexible and kind enough to pick us up from where we were staying in Kampala. And began our journey to Bwindi later they drove us while sight-seeing different things. This was really convenient as other people I reached out to were very strict about pick-ups Brian really made everything so easy for us as travelers! He was always available on phone and made sure we had a great trip with Charles in Uganda And then we connected to Kenya for the safari experience which was incredible all because of our talented driver and guide, joseph! He was very kind, friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. He knows the terrain, can read animal behaviour, and can foresee the best position for viewing. I honestly feel like the driver either makes or breaks your s, and I couldn't recommend GOEXPLORE highly enough! JOSEPH knows Masai Mara park like the back of his hand which is a huge advantage! joseph really does everything he can to show you an unforgettable safari experience. We were able to see the Big 5 better than we expected.

Excellent tour!
We chose Natural world safaris for our trip depending on good reviews found in internet and we are so happy about this choice! Our trip was very smooth, well organised and comfortable. We had only 6 days and we wanted to take most of it so we chose a very intense tour: Amboseli (1 night) - Lake Naivasha (1night) - Lake Nakuru (1 night) - Masai Mara (2 nights). It was intense but so well organised that only thing we had to do is to wake up early in the morning and just enjoy rest of the day. All the places we've visited were worth seeing, all accommodations we've stayed in - were breathtaking. This tour has a really good schedule: we've been on road a lot, but also we had some time to relax at lodges during midday. Also we would like to give extra thanks for our guide Mike. So knowledgeable, experienced and reasonable! we felt very safe and comfortable with him during all 6 days, always seeing the best views in the first rows!
