Great for a first time family safari combined with other activities
We had a great family holiday with our 2 teenagers. Loved the experience of travelling on road through Kenyan towns with our guide David who worked tirelessly to ensure we had a good time and could fit in as much game viewing as possible. The van (which we had for ourselves only) was well maintained with comfy seats which helps on the very bumpy approach road to Masai Mara. David even washed the windows in the evening to ensure we had good viewing the next day. A really nice touch! Accomodations good (although if returning I would try to stay inside Mara not on the outside, but with 4 of us we were working to a budget) , and the company promptly changed it where it did not match the description in our intenary. Our cook Moses produced good meals and breakfast was much more ample than expected . Fresh eggs or pancakes (or both) every day! We loved Lake Nakuru, so scenic, we hadn't been sure whether to include this but so glad we did. We saw lions, and a rhino cross right in front of us, aswell as heaps of beautiful birds, and monkeys in the trees. Masai Mara a little busy at that time of year, but wow , we saw a pride of 12 lions along with cheetah munching its recent conquest. We also saw zebra and wilderbeest crossing the Mara river. We loved Elsamere at Lake Naivasha, go there if you can, to stay or just for a visit and tea on the lawn. Wonderful service and beautiful spot. We also enjoyed Green Crater lake walk and lunch right on the very peaceful lake at the end. Great value for money with this company and we would definitely use them again if we return on safari.
Great trip, would go again!
Wonderful visit, great accommodation, excellent and knowledgable guides.

14 Nights/13 Days Wildlife and Beach Holiday
Maggie was extremely helpful and attentive from my initial inquiry all the way to the end of our vacation. She answered all of our questions and also arranged our stay in Nairobi at the conclusion of our tour package. Our driver, Jackson, was very informative and knowledgable as well. He answered all of our questions and also provided with information about the National Parks we visited and the various animals we saw on our game drives. We were able to see the big 5! and were able to capture exceptional camera shots. Tekko Tours was very attentive from the our initial inquiry outside of Kenya and in Kenya upon arrival and departure. I would highly recommend Tekko Tours!

Unforgetable
I think everyone should experience a Safari - to see the animals in their natural habitat - is amazing, saw Leopard and the cub, with the cub having a feed and Mum was 5 meters away watching patiently - a beautiful experience. Kavi and staff at Kurula Lodge were faultless, we are just like one big family. Thank you Guys.
and Andre - thank you kindly in organising this trip - all the best to you and the whole crew.
I have recommended your company to all my friends and family. South Africa is a beautiful country, people are so welcoming.

Brilliant Safari experience
We did a brilliant 11-day safari with Base Camp in August 2017, travelling the full northern Tanzania circuit including Arusha NP, Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We travelled as a family of 4 adults, with Robert, our guide for the whole time, in a private Base Camp Land Cruiser. Robert was a great guide, he was brilliant at spotting all sorts of things which we would have missed, and he knew where and when to stop the vehicle to observe and take photos of the wildlife. We managed to see everything we wanted to see, including all the "Big 5" (and loads more as well, including the wildebeest migration across the Mara River), thanks mainly to Robert's efforts.
Booking the trip directly with Achmed in Tanzania (the English owner) was easy and friendly. Achmed answered all my email queries very quickly. He also met with us when we arrived, gave us a good briefing and various tips, and he also met with us again on our return for our feedback.
We did a (luxury) tented lodge trip, and the accommodation and food was very good all the time. Beware - this trip requires long days in the vehicle, but this is necessary to cover the distances and also to be around in the parks at the right times - we would not have seen so much otherwise. We also wanted to do a day hike part-way up Kilimanjaro, which Achmed organised for us as an extra "add-on" day with a nearby overnight stop.
It was a brilliant, well-organised trip, and I highly recommend Base Camp Tanzania for a Tanzania safari of any duration !

amazing safari
Schon Kenya made our safari to Naivasha & part of Central Kenya unforgettable. They provided knowledge of all the serene places we visited, they were extremely professional, friendly and warm. We couldn't have used a better company to offer our safari services. Schon Kenya is the company of choice if our safari experience is anything to go by!

Amazing horseback riding experience in the middle of wonderful landscape from the south of Namibia
We have shared a wonderful week with a highly skilled and experienced team. The horses are well trained and adapted to their environment. The logistics, the service, the living conditions and the team support were highly appreciated. We recommend this trail to all riders seeking for unforgettable holidays in Namibia

Flawless Execution
My wife and I were a bit nervous as we had never used this company before and had never been to Africa. We also planned last minute (not recommended). However, Rose designed a trip that was perfect for what we asked for and all the connections, lodging etc. was simply flawless. When we go back to Africa, which we will, we will use Rose and Luxury Safari.

Incredible trip to Mgahinga Gorilla National Park
Terrain Safaris were highly recommended to me and they lived up to expectation. I was travelling on my own and looking for a bespoke trip from Kampala to Mgahinga Gorilla National Park on New Years Day. All of the arrangements were made (at very short notice) by Terrain Safari, transport, hotels, permit and it turned out to be one of the most amazing trips I have ever taken. I was picked up from my hotel on time and we made our way across Uganda, stopping of at great places to eat and bird watch. Paul Kaggwa Kibirango, who was the guide, was great fun company on what was a very long drive and very knowledgeable on ornithology. The visit to see the gorillas was really well arranged, we arrived early with all the necessary paperwork and I got to spend the maximum amount of time with a wonderful family of gorillas. Trip of a lifetime - I really recommend travelling with this company.
