One of the finest places to do a safari
We stayed in the Mugie Conservancy of the Laikipia paleau, a magical place mainly because of the lack of tourists. We have stayed here for 10 nights, doing morning and afternoon safari's every day and had to share a sighting with at max 2 other vehicles. The chances of seeing lion and elephants are good, cheetah decent, leopard rare and rhino is not present in this area.
But I loved the feeling of being the only visitors in an area ruled by animals.
A slight negative thing about the Mugie Conservancy is the tar road splitting the conservancy. With influences the bush vibes slightly. Also there are lots of local farmers present which btw did not bother me at all. In fact, it's very interesting to see how the conservancy makes sure farmers and wildlife can co-exist in the same area.
The possibility to off-road in this area is also very nice and give greet opportunities. All in all a very nice place to visit!

Review about Murchison Falls National Park by Chris Millbank
Expert guidance on the safaris, knowledge and explanation of animals behaviour and movements, beautiful lodge and first class food, service A+
Accommodating and friendly service!
For the safari we wanted, this company provided the best quote and made booking easy! Everything went just as smoothly throughout the entire trip, and we ended up seeing 3 of the Big Five! The Suricata Boma lodge was one of the best hotels we’ve ever been too and we were glad we spent a little more money on that extra. Overall great experience!

I did the safari with Abouh and it was the best experience ever! He always knows where to find the wild animals, explains you about the nature, shares experiences and he is an excellent photographer. Totally recommend

Amazing experience
Booking our dream Safari to Tanzania was such a pleasure thanks to all the hard work from Boris! We were in touch with little itinerary changes and she sorted them for us with absolutely no problem and with such a quick turnaround. Every part of the experience felt awesome, bespoke and extremely filled with expertise and knowledge. I would recommend working with Akondo Adventures to absolutely everyone!!

Much more than expected!
Simply impeccable! The service, the organization, the accommodation, the food, the experience: everything was perfect.
The food was always delicious, even in the middle of the savanna it felt like I was in a restaurant.
A highlight was Suricata Boma Lodge, which has a spectacular view of Lake Manyara, with attentive and always very willing staff.
With emphasis on the guides Chuke (Arusha tour), Louis (Lake Manyara tour), Rocky (Serengeti and Ngorongoro tours) and Damien (Tarangire tour) who were available at all times, attentive, helpful, patient and gave a show of knowledge about the animals and the region.
I recommend everyone who goes to the region to choose Suricata Safari as they will certainly be impressed with the quality of the service!

Perfect Tour organizer in Africa
It was our first time in Africa and we are glad we booked through QualifiedToursTanzania. They were very accommodating, kind and made sure that our trip would be flawless. Every one involved in our trip was amazing and very welcoming which made our experience that much better
Amazing part of tour was a cheetahs which came closer to our vehicle and spending sometime before disappeared in bushes.

We had two tour guides, Kalvin and Simon they were both incredible
Kalvin was our tour guide for our Materuni waterfalls which was absolutely amazing and i can highly recommend. We then did a 4 day safari with our tour guide Simon who was incredible and very knowledgeable. Thank you to Mountain Warriors who created a once in a life time trip.

Service:
The service we received was exceptional. Our guide, Pati, was not only knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife but also incredibly attentive to each group member's needs. He provided insightful facts, answered all our questions, and ensured we had the best possible sightings. Pati’s dedication was evident as he went above and beyond to make our safari memorable.

Jockey Tours proved to be highly reliable. They were punctual, well-organised, and managed every aspect of the tour efficiently. Pati ensured that our transitions between different parts of the safari were smooth, and he even took care of our safe return to Nairobi, making sure everyone in the group reached their accommodation without any issues.
The Tour Itself:
The safari was an incredible journey through the Maasai Mara. Despite being a solo traveller within a group, I felt included and engaged throughout the trip. We saw four of the Big Five, thanks to Pati’s expertise and keen eye. Each day was filled with breathtaking wildlife encounters and beautiful landscapes. The accommodation was comfortable and provided a perfect retreat after our adventurous days. The transportation was easy and well-managed, adding to the overall enjoyment of the trip.
