Adventure awaits
As a solo traveller, first time in the Africa -Africa
I am a little cautious when I arranged my travel.
But my concerns was swept away after I was in touch with Sheila, the sweet lady from kensai.
She went with me the whole time on the trip, taking care of me like a babysitter. So my trip was an enjoyable one. As I didn’t know what to expect the first time, so I just left the logistics to the hand of an experienced operator and take the back seat and enjoy the adventure. Sheila now well noted my point of interest, my travel style and can’t wait for my next encounter with the adorable giants of Africa.

friendly,knowledgable,paitient and able to be in the right place at the right time for best sighting
Johnson was able to put together a bucket list safari trip for my family of 5 from South Africa,
we are all keen bush lovers but there was still so much we learnt from Johnson, our sightings were incredible, from lions with cubs trying to take down a buffalo to a cheetah mom with 4 big cubs to the millions of wildebeest and the actual crossing of the Mara River itself, the trip was perfectly executed and the accommodation and food at simba oryx were great but the staff there were even better
thank you Johnson, we would recommend you to anyone looking for a tour guide in Kenya

Kilimanjaro on Machame Route
I contacted Mr. Ali directly from Italy and he helped me choose the most suitable route for us to have a better chance of reaching the summit and choosing the right period.
Excellent value for money.
Everything was perfect: the pick up at the airport, the hotel in Arusha, the team of nine people who, led by Joshua, accompanied us to Ururu Peak 5895 masl.
Stunning landscapes, breathtaking nature (from the tropical forest to the Lobelias in bloom, from the giant Seneci to the lava fields and the glaciers of the summit).
Impeccably organized trekking, good and plentiful food, professionalism and kindness of the whole team.
Thanks Alì, thanks Joshua and thanks to the whole team

lifelong memories
I had contacted the organizer in advance via the whatsapp channel...I was able to get a quick answer to our concerns and open questions at any time. when the program was fixed, it was about the payment...a first deposit of 20% of the total amount was due.... I was able to pay this by credit card (without a surcharge)...we had to pay the remaining amount 1 month before our arrival...there is a surcharge of 5% for credit card payments and 3% for bank transfers...the alternative is to take the remaining amount with us (which is quite a lot of money...and the surcharge can add up)
Arrived at the airport mauch was already waiting for us with name boards. The whole organization/procedures and catering were always at the top of the list... The accommodation and camps were also very well equipped and we felt very comfortable (medium luxury level).
On the safari, all our wishes were catered for and we saw and experienced everything we had planned before the safari (4 out of the big 5...no Leopard but a Cheetah instead)...I would recommend the safari with Suricata to anyone and we would do it again. Many thanks to the Suricata crew for making us feel safe and at home at all times

Great!
I thoroughly enjoyed this trip, it’s hard not to. Ken, our guide, was excellent and with good humour. He made sure that we did everything we wanted, and tried his best to make sure we had a good view of all of the animals. He even detoured to KFC for us on the way back to the airport. He was very easy to communicate with.
We got to see pretty much every possible animal, except for the rhino. We got to see early morning lion hunting, cheetahs, giraffes and elephants all up close.
If you book this tour, definitely pay the extra for the hot air ballon excursion, it’s worth it! The Maasai village visit was interesting, but be careful at the end as they will likely heavily pressure to buy souvenirs at ridiculously high prices, just be strong and say no or negotiate to something more reasonable.
Before you arrive at the lodge, make sure you have small notes for tips, as you will probably need them here and there. And when booking a lodge, be sure to ask how far it is from the entrance to the national park. Also, we paid extra for the open air car for the safari, which had no windows. We felt this was much better and we were able to see everything much clearer and also had lots of fresh air. The only downside is that you get very dusty by the end of the day, but it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity so I found it to be a no brainer.
Overall, this company were very reliable and easy to deal with. We were picked up from the airport by their driver Tony, who was very nice. Fred, our liaison for the booking, met us upon check in at the hotel in Nairobi to collect the rest of the payment. Then our guide, Ken, drove us to our lodge and took care of the rest. I would definitely recommend this company to others.

Great experience, our Safari with Penuel Tours
We booked our Safari in the Tarangire-National-Park from Germany and we had doubts, would it work? But it worked absolutely smooth. The details were clarified a day before and the guide was on time at the hotel. The Price included also an overnight stay in Arusha and for small many we got another night.
Our guide was Kana, who knowledgeably gave us interesting information about life and survival in the wilderness. He didn't just chase after the Big Fife, which is easier to do in a zoo, but took us to places where we were alone and could smell and hear nature. There we were lucky enough to see elephants at close quarters. It was a great day for us.

Courageous
We really enjoyed our driver Ken! He did an incredible job anticipating where the animals would go and did an amazing job getting us up close whenever he had the chance! We stayed at Jambo Mara and all the staff was wonderful as well.

Amazing
Our Safari with Bonafrica was nothing short of spectacular.This once lifetime experience was organized and unforgettable wildlife encounter
The game drives were exceptional guided by knowledgable and passionate driver Duncan who made every moment educational and thrilling.We were fortunate to witness the big 4 in their natural habitat along with the other countless species.Duncan ensured we got the best vintage to view the magnificent creatures.
Our Safari with Duncan was the best that exceeded our expectations.I highly recommend Duncan as the best driver and guide
