Excellent Safari Guide
Joined a 3-day tour to the Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater. The guides/drivers were super professional and nice. They could spot animals from far far away and show us where to look. We saw lots of animals, such as lions, cheetahs, rhinos, hippos, and elephants. They also had a book about birds and showed us which type of birds we were seeing whenever we came across any birds. There were drawings and descriptions about the birds in the book, which we could learn a lot. The whole tour experience was wonderful and we got more than expected.

Well-organized and itinerary exactly as described!
I am so glad we booked with Kiliholidays! Mack, the owner of the tour company, was excellent in communicating with me via email! He was quick to respond to all of my questions and concerns. We booked two tours: Mt. Kilimanjaro 6-day Marangu route and also a 3 night/4 day safari. Both were amazing and unforgettable experiences! For Mt. Kilimanjaro tour: what can I say, we LOVED our guides Paroko and Baracka!!! They were so friendly, encouraging, helpful and wonderful to talk to! Our porters and cook were also fantastic! Perhaps bring an extra blanket to keep you warm during the cold nights as the sleeping bags they provided could have been better, but other than that, we had a great time! For our safari, we went to Tarangire, the Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. Each park was beautiful and our guide, Thomas, was excellent! He was able to find so many animals for us. It was crazy how sharp his eye was! We saw the big 4 on the first day thanks to him! We stayed at Farm of Dreams Lodge and Tukaone Camp. WOW!!! Loved both!!! Loved the comfort of a wonderful hotel at Farm of Dreams Lodge and the awesome experience of “glamping” at Tukaone!!! Very glad we booked with Kiliholidays! Very transparent, trustworthy company that delievered what they promised in our discussions!

Marvellous experience!
Our custom tour was well organized with great accommodations, prompt responses to any queries and notification, plus a refund for any changes. Aside from being able to see the gorillas, chimpanzees and monkeys so close up, our experience was definitely enhanced with the quality of our guide/driver. He was exceptional! He was knowledgeable about Uganda - wildlife, farming practices, history, governance and global events for example, which made for excellent discussion during some of the long drives. He was also curious about our home country and asked many thoughtful questions. Our guide/driver was calm, consistently positive and an extraordinarily good driver, no matter the road conditions.

Perfect Safari Experience
SunUp did an excellent job in organising our Safari. Quick to response on Emails, all appointments were met on time and the tour was planned well. We stayed at a wonderful lodge and our guide was not only a good driver but also excellent in spotting animals, which means we were able to see every kind of animal there is to see in the Maasai Mara.
Highly recommended!

Fantastic trip to the Maasai Mara
Many thanks to Otieno and my guide Albanas for the fantastic time I had during my visit to the Maasai Mara and Lake Navaisha.
It was truly the trip of a lifetime and I came home with many superb memories and amazing photographs to remind me of a wonderful trip. The ease of setting up and paying for the trip, the transportation, accommodations, food, and of course the guide were all absolutely first-rate! The extra day spent in the Maasai Mara, the hot-air balloon safari, and the game drive on the way back from the balloon safari were delightful additions and I am very grateful that you were able to arrange for the extra time and those activities, which pushed my trip over the top!
Again, many thanks to you and Albanas and I will definitely recommend Kenya Walking Survivors Safaris to my friends and colleagues.

Professional personnel and good experience
The tour went on as planned and the personnel was professional and very good with communications. They picked me up in the ferry terminal and took me to my hotel one day before the tour.

Once in a lifetime experience.
Benjamin was great to work with. I started planning my trip one year in advance and Benjamin made sure to respond to all questions relating to the trip. Our trip consisted of us visiting Cape Town, Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe), and Kruger National Park.
Upon arrival, Benjamin was there to pick us up and take us to our hotel. While in Cape Town, Benjamin took us to see Table Mountain, Robben Island, Cape Point, and wine tasting in Franschoek. Table Mountain was spectacular. We had the option of hiking up to the top but decided on taking the tram (quicker to the top) in order to enjoy the views from above. Cape Point had amazing views and we could have easily taken picture after picture. The wine tasting in Franschoek was great. You jump on a Wine Tram which takes you from vineyard to vineyard. By far the best day weather wise.
Our next stop was Victoria Falls. Although Benjamin did not join us in Victoria Falls, he ensured our airport transfers to and from hotel had been arranged along with booking our excursions for the two days we were there. We had dinner on the Zambezi river at Sunset and words cannot describe how beautiful it was. The following day was a trip to Victoria Falls and we were in awe of how beautiful and massive the falls were. Didn't realize it was the biggest in the world. My group of friends split up for the next excursion as half decided to walk with lions and the other half spent it with elephants. Yes, we actually walked with lions! Such a surreal experience that I will never forget. My other friends had a wonderful time interacting with elephants by feeding, petting and spending some time with them. Our last dinner was a drum show at BOMA. We enjoyed the drum show and were able to participate in the dancing in the end.
Our last stop was Kruger National Park. Benjamin met us back in Johannesburg to finish the last leg of our trip. We thoroughly enjoyed our Safari. We had a combination of night and day time safari's. We saw every wild life possible except for a Rhino. But how can you be disappointed when the views were spectacular, we got to see lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, leopard, buffalo and even Wild Dogs! Our campsite was great and big enough for our party of 11. We enjoyed a day on the deck and watching wildlife walk along the dry riverbed. Great time for us all.
In the end, we could not have asked for a better experience and Benjamin was the best host and tour guide. The entire trip was excellent. My friends and I really enjoyed our time and I would highly recommend him.
