care and detail
We had a wonderful experience with this agency and with the driver Zefa, who spoke Italian very well, knew the places and the animals.
the agency also takes great care of its customers, with small daily attentions, great care in cleaning both the jeep and the tents on the campsite.
The chef's cuisine is also excellent, as he follows you step by step throughout the Safaris.
If you are Italian, ask for Zefa to be your guide!
Super recommended tour.. it will be a once in a lifetime experience!

Excellent from start to finish, would book again without hesitation
Excellent tour operator that organized our 4 day Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru Safari. Very friendly, quick and efficient communication with Chris (manager) and John (guide & driver). We were able to tailor the itinerary, accommodations and car to our likings. John did an excellent job with the driving (incl stops whenever and wherever we needed), game drives and showing us around. I would book again without hesitation.

Amazing service, knowledgeable and friendly staff!
We booked a Mokoro tour in the Okavango delta with Keya Botswana and had the best time! Edwin knows the most skilled polers and most expert guides, so they spotted a lot of animals from incredible distances! We also did some tracking and were even allowed to (try to) steer the Mokoro ourselves. Really had an amazing day, felt well taken care of and got some really useful tips for the rest of our travels. Would use their service gladly again anytime!

Dependable and Experienced
Our guide, Michael, did a fantastic job driving; locating game; and explaining the plants, animals, and people we encountered on our 8-day safari. Prosper, our chef, prepared excellent meals using fresh ingredients that included sufficient fruits, vegetables, and meats, and, most importantly, the food was delicious.
The only concern during the safari was we seemed to start the day later than I would like given that most predators sleep during the day. We did see plenty of sleeping lions, but I preferred to see them while they were more active. After discussing this with Michael and Prosper, they agreed to an early start, and we were the first truck to enter the Ngorongoro crater that day.
The only concern after the safari is that, when I went to write the review here, I noticed that the last review was by someone with my last name. While I am dubious that this is a review from an actual customer, I still want to recommend Meijo to others from someone who did indeed go on an 8-day safari with Meijo.
Here are some recommendations for others:
Discuss the exact lodging that will be provided. I was under the impression that we were only staying one night in a tent and was surprised to learn that there were three nights planned in tents. After reading the proposal again, I realized that this was a possibility, but it was not clear whether a tent or room would be provided.
If you want to start your game drives at sunrise, make sure you tell Daudi, the owner, before he finalizes the plans so the guide and chef are prepared. In this case, I would plan to leave an extra generous tip since the chef will have to wake up extra early to prepare a warm breakfast.
Daudi recommends $10 daily minimum tip. I personally feel this is inadequate and would hope others are willing to leave a much more generous tip.
Bring plenty of cash to tip sufficiently and buy things as needed. None of the places we went accepted cards. Bring USD in the amount sufficient to tip for the best service possible and decrease as needed if the staff doesn't meet your expectations. Add to this amount any additional you want to allot for souvenirs, snacks and coffee purchases, and unexpected expenses. Upon arrival, the driver can take you to the best exchange. There are ATMs available in some places with max withdrawal 400,000 TSH ($160 USD) at a cost of 15,000 TSH ($6 USD) for any amount withdrawn.

Highly recommend this company
Thanks to Trip Finder Magic Safaris and Sophie our Contact…
My family visited Kenya after comparing many African Countries. We are a big fun of the wildlife. Kenya offered the best opportunity to see all we could have asked for.
My husband made a last minute booking through Sophie and we were glad to meet the great team from TRIP FINDER MAGIC SAFARIS at the Nairobi Hotel before starting the trip.
Sophie assigned a very patient Guide to us. Joseph was friendly with the kids and made this a memorable trip. October is abit rainy but animals came out in large numbers.
We plan to be back next year and will surely look for Trip Finder Magic Safaris.

The best and most professional safari in Africa
My family (4 people) spent a week with Travel Creations Botswanana on a private safari in the Okavango Delta. It was the most professional, safe and friendly safari I have ever been on (compared to: Kenya, Tanzania, Namibia, Brazil, Sri Lanka etc). The guide was friendly and told a lot of true stories. He found and showed us a lot of wild animals. We spent every evening by the campfire and the food was fantastic. I highly recommend it.
The guide speaks English and the price of the safari was very competitive.

Murchision Falls Birthday Adventure
It was a thrilling 4 day trip with family (19 people in 3 cars). The drivers/ guides were amiable, engaging and polite. We even stopped to give another team of tourists to get back onto the road. There were pleasant surprises like the breakfast in the bush. The guides were very knowledgeable and provided interesting tit bits along the way. We were blessed to witness a pride of lions at close range for about half an hour. Overall it was an exciting trip with great activities , food and people.
