Alright
Didn’t get to see any animals, other than your monkeys, elephants and impala’s, extremely disappointed after previously calling the day before and being told to come any time to see any animal, but the day of coming only seeing little and being told we should’ve come earlier, therefore ultimately given poor advise and wasted money.

A Kenyan Safari Beyond Expectations
Our Kenyan safari, meticulously planned by Africa Barefoot Safaris, surpassed all expectations. From the initial contact with Prajwal, she patiently crafted a customized itinerary to suit our preferences and budget; we knew we were in good hands.
Our guide, Patrick, was an invaluable asset. His profound knowledge of Kenya's wildlife, culture, and history was truly impressive. His passion for sharing his expertise was evident in every interaction, making our journey even more enriching. His dedication to guest satisfaction was unparalleled, ensuring we felt comfortable and cared for throughout our adventure.
The dedicated safari vehicle was perfect for our group, providing ample space and comfort while allowing for optimal wildlife viewing. The accommodations selected by Prajwal were exceptional, offering a blend of luxury and authentic experiences.
The wildlife encounters were nothing short of spectacular. The vast plains of Amboseli offered breathtaking encounters with majestic elephants, while the Masai Mara provided thrilling opportunities to witness the drama of the savanna unfold, including prides of lions, elusive leopards, and playful cheetahs. From witnessing majestic elephant herds in Amboseli to the thrill of spotting elusive leopards in the Masai Mara, every game drive was an adventure. We were fortunate to see a diverse array of animals, including lions, cheetahs, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeest, and countless bird species. Patrick's skill in positioning the vehicle for photography resulted in breathtaking images.
Our experiences extended beyond wildlife viewing. In Nairobi, a visit to the elephant orphanage was heartwarming, and feeding giraffes was an unforgettable encounter. Taking the plane from Amboseli to Masai Mara offered a unique perspective of the vast savanna.
Naboisho Conservancy was a highlight. The night safari there was an exhilarating experience, allowing us to witness nocturnal creatures in their natural habitat. The clear night skies provided an exceptional opportunity for astrophotography. And the thrill of camping under the stars, surrounded by the sounds of the African bush while protected by Masai warriors, was an adventure of a lifetime.
We cannot thank Prajwal and Patrick at Africa Barefoot Safaris enough for curating such an extraordinary journey. It was an experience we will cherish forever.
We started our trip with Africa Barefoot Safaris and we finished it with two friends Patrick and Prajwal. THANK YOU!

The best trip ever
Everything was perfect! Tepo and Anna gifted us with an incredible Safari experience. The guides were great, the lodges spectacular, the wildlife of Botswana incredible. From Victoria falls to Maun a surprise after another, sleeping under the stars in the makgadigkadi salty pans was breathtaking! We strongly recommend Sekanka, they are the best!!!!

Very polite, accommodating, and helpful
The safari was amazing. All accommodations exceeded our expectations; the one time it didn’t they organised a change of houses immediately. We saw so many animals and did incredible activities (such as sleeping under the stars and boat cruises).

Very helpful and always available to answer questions
Just back for a 5 day/6 night safari in Kenya with Super Eagles. The trip took in 3 national parks, Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboselli. The trip was amazing and Richard and his team were very friendly and helpful throughout. All camps were comfortable and food was great throughout. Really liked the last camp in Ambosellil - Nyati Tented Camp. Great views of Kilimanjaro and lovely spacious tents. Morning bush walk was a lovely activity before safari and a lovely way to end the week. Highly recommend Super Eagles to anyone interested doing a safari.

Making Miracles Happen!
There are so many good things to day I don't know where to begin.
There service was like no other! From the first contact to the last. The planner who catered everything to our needs and answered every detailed question we had before travelling. We fell in love with our guide who was with us everyday for a week. He was always pleasant and friendly and helpful. Toni our original contact went above and beyond when we realized the day before departure that we had forgotten to get our visas! He had his team obtain them in less than a single work day (normally takes 3 days)!
All personnel went beyond what we could have immagined.
I could not recommend this company enough!!!
Not only was the service beyond perfection, but Uganda and its people are special. The land is beautiful and the people are all very friendly.
The accomadations where amazing and unique. This tour operator has chosen accomadations where the service is as high as their own standards. The food was all excellent (and coming from Italy that is saying alot)!
All of the tours were amazing! This country not only gives you the opportunity to see the big 5, but primates as well. Although the country is land-locked, Lake Victoria (as well as others) provide fantastic views. The country is extremely green, which suprised me, lush trees and vegetation everywhere. If you do not exercise regularly I highly recommend you get a porter when you do the gorilla trek. I've been hiking in the dolomites and I was not going to get one, until my guide insisted. Of course, he as right!
We saved for 10 years to be able to afford this trip, but let me tell you it was worth every penny! I realize that many of the passes are very expensive, but when you go to see what it helps to preserve and meet the people it helps to maintain you will agree it is a fair price. If you have any clothes/school supplies/money you would like to donate oraganize with your guide the best place to destribute them. This was the highlight of our trip. Meeting people and being able to leave them a piece of us.
If you have any reservations about Uganda, please don't! We always felt very safe. Safe drinking water was also always available.
Check with your doctor for proper vaccine preparation, but other than that you are good to go!
I hope I'm saying all the right words to convince you that Speke Holidays is the best option!
