Professional and highly organised trip of a lifetime
5/5

We visited Victoria Falls, Chobe, Elephant Sands and then 3 days camping in the Okovango Delta in Botswana. Mr Oscar and his team looked after us from the moment our plane landed until we departed from Maun. We saw so so much wildlife and the opportunity to Mokoro in hte delta and walk in the bush with a highly experienced guide was magical. I cannot recommend them highly enough! Just tell him what you want to do and he wil organise it.

Milana is simply the best!
5/5

My friends and I visited Kenya for a 3 day safari and it was nothing short of perfection. Being our first time visiting Kenya we had to source for the ideal tour company which we felt safe travelling with. Milana Tours and Safaris came in and did the job. They helped us plan the perfect itinerary. We had the best 3 days in Mara, we saw almost all the top 5 animals upclose thanks to our guide Simon. We will definitely book with them in future.

BEST GUIDES ON EARTH!!!
5/5

Awwwww man I don't know where to start. Lets first start with communication OKKKAAAYYYYYYY. From beginning to end the communication was SUPERB. Detailed itinerary with what we were doing each day and what was included each day. Who we would see when we arrived, pickup times and fees were very clear and consise. Upon meeting you get a warm welcome and introduction. Transport was on time and had enough space for our group of 7, water and smiles were provided each and every day. One of our initial drivers was George of the Town with his so called magic water lol and once we got to Masai we had theeee most amazing driver named Issac. Issac is literally our homeboy now we got pictures with him, we made him jump for a gravity shot, we made animal noises together or should I say he laughed at my animal noises :D .. ISSAC helped make us feel truly protected and taken care of during our stay there. I HIGHLY RECCOMEND ISSAC as your Masai tour guide ...when he gets the drop on where the animals are at my guy takes off and gets you there ASAP ok so hold onto your wig. We had a blast at Masai Mara with the Mara Serena staff, singing making music and dancing. TRULY AMAZING YALL. To end it off thee one and only STEVE blessed us with a meal at an AMAZING all you can eat restaurant with an amazing ambiance and thee most beautifully dressed employees. This company really gains your trust being well organized, on time and communicative and don't ever drop the ball. You must book with them when you visit amd I guarantee you will not be dissapointed. The larger your group the better. Im a flight attendant and have been many places in the world and this is hands down one of THEE BEST trips and experiences I have EVER had in my ENTIRE 35 yrs of LIFE. I truly felt the love, the care , the respect, the vibes, the culture, the fun, the protection and the feeling of being at a home away from home on this trip. George of the town, George of the bush, Issac, Steve and everyone else we came in contact with...JOB WELL DONE. You have touched our entire New York Crew beyond imagination and yall will forever be in our hearts. Thanks for these life enriching memories and may god continue to bless each of you, your families and this amazing company. Sincerely Allison T. aka the one everyone kept Laughing at :( lmfao I truly love yall...stay blessed.

Amazing adventure of Kenya and Tanzania
5/5

What an amazing safari with Bontel Adventures with top notch Customer service!!we booked a 11 Day Kenya and Tanzania Safari with Bontel Adventures and it turns out this is the best safari we've ever taken, Fredrick was really helpful in planning this safari, the guides assigned were so knowledgeable making our safari memorable. The main highlight of our safari was Masai mara,Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater where we saw many animals from Lions,Elephants,wildebeests,Zebras etc. We definitely recommend them.

Wonderful energy and highly responsive
5/5

My experience with Active Planet Safaris was outstanding, thanks to the incredible team and thoughtful planning that made my trip unforgettable. Joel, who helped set up my itinerary, was exceptionally helpful and responsive. He provided me with multiple options to ensure I stayed within budget and tailored everything to my preferences. Joel’s warm energy shone through when he stopped by to meet me in person after my safari, which made me feel truly valued as a client.

My guide throughout the safari was Logan, a local expert originally from the Masai tribe with a background in wildlife studies, and was simply amazing. His deep knowledge and experience added so much to the trip. He shared fascinating facts and stories about the animals and the environment, making every moment memorable. Thanks to him, I was lucky enough to see the Big Five! For anyone interested in hiking Mount Kilimanjaro, he’s also a former hiking guide, so be sure to ask him about that as well.

Overall, Active Planet Safaris delivered a wonderful and once-in-a-lifetime experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a meaningful and personalized safari adventure.

An unforgettable, special experience with a new culture and beautiful nature!
5/5

My boyfriend and I went on a safari with Roko and Miranda. There was clear communication about the content of our trip in advance and it was adjusted to our personal preferences. Roko really has a lot of knowledge about nature, animals and the entire culture in Tanzania. We were able to see many animals and we were really lucky with this, but Roko and the driver also knew where to find the right places in the national parks. We also had a cook with us on safari who served us delicious food!
Afterwards we stayed for a week in Lake Natron. In the Maasai Guesthouse you will not miss anything as a guest. We also went on a walk to the lake and the waterfalls with Roko (and his brother Bura) as a guide, both walks are definitely recommended! Just like booking with Roko Safaris!

3 Days Safari - an incredible experience
5/5

It was a great experience we had with this safari.
Everything was perfectly organized by the company: the transport from the hotel in Zanzibar to the airport, the flights, the overnight accommodation, the safari.
Our driver Innocent picked us up at the airport in Arusha and we drove straight to Tarangire National Park. There was so much to see and our driver tried to show us as many animals as possible.
We stayed overnight near the Manyara National Park. The next day we went to the Ngorogoro crater. Here we were able to see all of the big five. (many thanks to Innocent)
We also visited a little village of Massai, which shown us there lifestyle.
On the third day we were in Manyara National Park. Here our driver tried to show us as many animals as possible, which is not that easy with so many trees. However, in the future I would consider whether I would go to this park again, since compared to the other two parks, there are now very few animals to be seen here. (apparently due to the rising water of the lake)
Innocent was a really good guide who saw animals long before us and pointed them out to us. For us they were mostly at that moment just small dots in the landscape.
Many thanks to the Travel Wise Team and our guide Innocent for this incredible Safari.

Amazing, fantastic experience
5/5

Picked up from the airport, taken to the office and then onto adventure. The Masi Mara is a beautiful place with a huge assortment of animals, which thanks to our guide Johny Jackson we saw everyone of. He drove us around for 2 days there and gave us an insight to the animals and how they live. He answered all of our questions and was very friendly, knowledgeable and a lovely man. Onward to Nakuru where again he made sure we saw everything in the national park. We then went on a boat trip at Lake Naivsaha, where we had a CLOSE encounter with a hippo! The accommodation has been very good everywhere and the Kenyan people are wonderful. The children smile and wave at you, the adults ask you how you are! They are amazing, I hope the country never changes. The company were very helpful when neither of our luggage made the flight and arrived a day late to Nairobi airport! They organised that it came up in the next available transport at no extra charge. I will definitely recommend this company to others, we told them our dates and they organised everything. Yes there is a lot of travelling between places but the memories are invaluable and I can't wait to share with others. Many, many thanks your amazing.

Well organized and very worth it
5/5

Everything was well arranged, specially the timing. Besides visiting the wonder of the natural park and reserves, the game driver also gives you free time to relax in the afternoon
Communication with our game driver (Joshua) was very good, he made sure that everything go smoothly and he respected the needs of the group. Also he has a wide knowledge about wildlife and nature and he answered all our questions.

Reliable, highly professional tour operator.
5/5

We just did a 2 day / 1 night Safari to Amboseli National Park as part of a stopover in Nairobi. Whole experience with Morningstar Tours was awesome. As a family with 2 children (5 and 7 years old) we had many questions which were all taken care of by Carolyn who was extremely attentive and speedy in her replies. All arrangements / promises (e.g. car seats) were kept as aligned. Our Guide Glenn, who picked us up from our Nairobi hotel and was also doing the game drives with us (one in the late afternoon, one in the early morning) delivered a Glenn-tastic experience. He knew exactly where to drive to in order to catch the best views and pictures. Having such a knowledgeable guide with lots of experience really makes a difference. He's certainly an asset for this company.
Wrapping things up, if you're planning to do a Safari and are shopping for a tour operator: Go with Morningstars and ask for Glenn. If you've the opportunity to add a stop-over to your Kenya Airways flight (as we did): Go for it! ;)
