That's my "Out of Africa"
Mt kenya and safari tour
It was a fantastic experience. Albert organized for me two wonderful tours: trekking on mountain Kenya and safari.
On Mt Kenya I stayed alone with the guide and the cooker. Two kind and available persons. Four days in good company, well assisted and helped by Jimmy, the guide and delicious dishes in the evening by Anthony, the cooker. Speaking with them during the trekking and in the evening was a very important cultural, pleisure and great experience. Was wonderful on the top of point Lenana, seeing the sun rise but for me is important all the context, too.
My days went on happiness with safari tour.
First of all I knew a lot of people coming from all the world. We stay toghether for 6 days, sharing the strong emotions of the safari, from the colour at the Sunrise and sunset, from the game drive, tracking various animal species and birds in Masai Mara, Nakuru ,Lake Naivash an Amboseli park. See lions resting or looking for a catch, groups of female lions doing "breakfast" with their puppies, a lot of buffalo, zebra, antilopes, gazelle, funny giraffes and nice hippos in the pool, and then elephants, white rino, crocodile and even leopard on the tree or lying down on the ground....an unforgettable experience....it was like being in the movie "out of Africa"...without Robert I didn't meet him....next time surely .
I stayed in a Masai village too, in their houses, spoken and danced their traditional jumps of warriors with them, in a context of mutual respect.
All of this in company of two nice and funny persons,ready to answer to your request and question : Gibson and Isaia, the guides ....even this was un unforgettable experience. The only pitty was not to have seen the "Great Kilimanjaro" , there was clouds on the top, a good reason to come back even if you dont' need reasons, go and fun. All these memories are always present every day...still thank to the fact I am in contact with some of these people: that's great, that's friendship.
Many many thanks, fist of all to Albert.

Wonderful Team to Find Just the Right Safari!
In 2015, friends and I decided to go on safari, found the Sun Safaris website, booked with them, and have worked with them ever since. Their team of experts works quickly to find us just the right safari that fits our budget. What I really like about this team is that they send along a number of different options for lodges, ensuring that the criteria of the lodges are met (e.g., Internet access, credit cards, good game viewing, excellent accommodations and food, etc.). Specifically, once we booked a lodge, Sun Safaris worked extremely well with us to communicate to the lodges requests that we had. For example, we requested a particular game ranger and specific rooms, both of which Sun Safaris requested of the lodge. Any questions we had about individual lodges was immediately answered. A friend and I recently booked a two-lodge safari with Sun Safaris--both of which amazingly wonderful and fit our expectations (and budget!) completely. As return customers, the Sun Safari team knows the criteria around which we select our lodges, and they are extremely efficient in organizing all details from transfers, to specific rooms, to specific game rangers. They know the lodges well as they visit them to ensure the quality of the experience is top-notch. I want to give a big shout out to Natasha Allen and Michelle Astbury, both of whom who worked so professionally with us across the years. I really appreciate how the booking and payment are easy, and the details around arrival/departure, package details, etc. are fully explained. In future safaris (and there will be a number more), the Sun Safaris team will be the first I will contact!

Totally loved my Safari with Zamsato, can't wait to go back to see more.
As a single traveler it’s always difficult to go on these types of excursions on your own, but Daniel (owner of Zamsato) was a great guide and very easy to get along with. He took care of every detail of the safari and it was all meticulously planned. Daniel also has great knowledge of the habitat and wildlife ranging from the Elephants to the insects, and everything in between. I visited strait after the rains, so there was lush growth hiding the game, but Daniel still spots and points them out and he was far quicker with his camera than I was, so nothing was missed.

Fantastic Uganda
The experience we had in Uganda was simply fantastic. All the activities were excellent as we saw all the animals which Uganda has to offer, big or small. The gorillas were the unbelievable, an amazing once in a lifetime experience but the Chimpanzee habituation was a real highlight and something I would really recommend to everybody who visits Kibale. A slightly unexpected highlight was actually the swamp walk in Kibale. We saw 7 out of the 8 primate species and the guide Ben, was a fantastic young man, very passionate and really well informed.
A great deal of our positive experience of Uganda was provided by Kaleb, our driver and guide. He was very kind, informed and positive the whole trip. He had a great understanding of the country, people and environment and made us very welcome. He also knew everybody we met which was great.
The accommodation was of a very high standard and was always interesting, either by location or by design. All the food we had was good, especially when we got to eat some of the local food.
Our only slight disappointment was in both Murchison Falls NP and Queen Elizabeth NP where both times the UWA failed to provide rangers for us. We had heard Kaleb make the arrangements for rangers but both times the rangers we booked choose to go with other, independent, 'cash in hand' groups instead. We did not miss out because Kaleb used to be a ranger and still possessed all the skills and connections so we saw all the animals we wanted to. However, it would have been good to have a second set of experienced eyes in the car with us.
When we did have rangers they were excellent. Africano was our guide for the Chimpanzees and he was brilliant as was the whole team of 5 we had for the Gorilla trekking.
Uganda is a beautiful and fascinating country and both we would like to thanks Matoke tours for guiding us through it.

Tailor Made Safaris listens well to the desires you have and organises very carefull a superholiday
Every day we talk about our holiday to South Africa super organised by Tailor Made Safaris. Hartwarming, surprising accomodations made us feel very welcome. Our personal guidebook showed us our choices what to expect that day and possible variations to make. At any time or any question we contacted our personal quide from T M S and received quick a good answer. Recommended by T M S to travel in this order, every day was more spectacular! the guides of the game drives introduced us in the colorful world of flora and fauna with patience and humor. After admiring and taking enough photo's he continued churching other wild life.
Our holiday was a time of discovering, admiring a new continent,driving to see the variety of landscapes in a relaxed way. Tailor Made Safaris listens very well to the desires you have and organises very carefull a relaxed holiday to make all your dreams come true.

Best Services
This the second time I went to Kenya and I chose Kenya Walking again. John was our driver this time. He was kind and helpful and resourceful. We rented the vehicle from Mr. Ot. He gave us a very attractive rate. And the vehicle was clean and in good condition.
Definitely recommend go with Kenya Walking.

Outstanding
Not only were they competent and efficient, they demonstrated an ability to understand our very subjective needs and preferences. The quality of the tours was excellent, they were good value for money and everything went very smoothly. We also dealt with friendly and attentive staff on all levels. We have and will recommend them to our friends and family.
