The operator with the most professional staff.
All of the staff in Spirit of Kenya are super professional and made this Africa trip to be the best experience so far. We had three guides throughout the journey and all of them are super helpful and knowledgeable, which made us to see everything in the parks. The selection of accommodations are also perfect, all the places we stayed did very good job at all the aspects, including the rooms, services, and foods. I could say everything is beyond my expectations!

Best Tanzanian Safari ever. All the arrangements were perfect and there were ZERO issues!
1.Out of this world experience in Serengeti, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Tanzania with Easy Travel and Tours Tanzania
This was the best Safari that I ever have been on! Our tour guide Luis Constantino was excellent and knowledgeable in all fields!
It was a very pleasant experience with him.
Easy Travel and Tours Tanzania are extremely professional and quick to respond on any questions, night or day!
2. Serengeti migration, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro - tailor made safari
EasyTravel arranged a tailor made tour for us according to our requests, and with their knowledgeable advice. We wanted to see the migration and we did! We wanted to see the vast plains of the Serengeti, the birds of East Africa, and we did! Our guide - Luis Constantino- was superb and accommodated our requests and went to great lengths to show us the Serengeti. We saw rock climbing lions, many hippos and got to learn a lot of Swahili. He is very knowledgeable about all the animals and birds, and even though we know wildlife well, he taught us many things. Many guides would chase after sightings and be inconsiderate on the roads, but Luis has a humble, compassionate character and kept the pace relaxed, and spotted many things with his sharp eyesight, also reading the animals behavior to know whether predators are around- and then he spots the predators. Luis treated us like family and really took care of every arrangement on our trip, from booking in at the Parks’ gates, at the different accommodation and arranging our picnic meals according to our preferences. Luis knows the the Serengeti roads like the back of his hand.
We really enjoyed Lake Manyara with him, as we are keen birders and he really surprised us with searching them out. He really went the extra mile.
We felt safe with him and we could just sit back and relax and enjoy our safari.
We made a new friend!
Value for your money for sure.

Most Amazing Trip Ever!
As a solo traveler, and my very first trip to Africa as a whole, I was a bit nervous as to what to expect. This trip turned out to be my most memorable and the best yet.
Morningstar was very accommodating in helping me put together the most epic safari expedition. I settled on a 8 day safari tour between Kenya and Tanzania.
The parks. The selection of parks was perfect for 8 days, Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Amboseli. Every time I thought I had seen it all, there was something new in the next park.
The accommodations. The accommodations were so amazing and at times felt unreal. I booked the luxury package, which was a combination of lodges and one camp inside Serengeti. I was very happy with the choices, even during peak season and booked just a few months out.
The guides. The guides were experts at the parks and knew exactly how to locate the animals. I was able to see the Top 5, and several rare sightings such as a cheetah with 5 cubs and witness the hunt to feed her cubs. The up front sightings felt unreal. The guides were always early and on time, professional, and aiming to please. Not only were they there to provide their expert guidance, but helped me breeze through the border transfers multiple times, navigate the local landscape, and ensure I had everything needed during my accommodation stays.
The hiccups. A missed connection altered my arrival time. I was able to always reach the tour company in which they sprang into action to adjust my pickup time and location. They arrived prior to my arrival. To take it further, my luggage didn’t arrive with me and ended up arriving one 24 hours later. Morningstar went above and beyond to return to the airport, retrieve my luggage for me and get it to me when I was already 6 hours away from the airport. Their response was simply Hakuna Matata. My luggage arrived promptly and in tact.
The honorable mentions. I have to mention a few people who really went above and beyond to ensure this trip was truly memorable. First and foremost, was Alice. Alice was integral in helping me put together the most epic itinerary, choosing the best accommodations and parks. She was also super integral in facilitating the hiccups and getting my luggage. She also adjusted her schedule on the back end of my journey to help me experience some local Kenyan culture prior to my departure. I also need to mention Jackson. Jackson was an expert at breezing through Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and border exchanges. He is an encyclopedia knowledge of the animals, parks, and landscape. I learned so much from our time spent and couldn’t believe it breezed by. Last but not least William was an absolute joy to have as a tour guide and felt more like a friend. He truly has a passion for safari tours and made my time at Amboseli memorable. All of staff at Morningstar truly went above and beyond to ensure all of my needs were accommodated for before I even knew they were needs.
Definitely looking forward to returning.

Wonderful family tour in Kenya
I traveled with my family of 7 including three young boys (aged 11 to 16) to Kenya in July. It was a wonderful 10 day experience. Sunworld has been very helpful from the get go. I worked with Sonal to develop the program and made numerous changes and request. Sonal was very patient and helpful with prompt responses and useful recommendations, as well as following up as the traveling date approaches.
Our tour guide Felix is cool and amazing. He really knows his work. He worked for 26 years in the sector, and has a unique capability leading us to the most exciting activities during the game drives. He would anticipate the moves of the animals and position the car at the right spot for us to have the best view when things happen. We've had the opportunity to see all the Big Fives including the rare black rhinos, and the beautiful leopard. We also had the front row seat to see the cheetah mom hunting the wildebeest with her 4 young kids (who did nothing to help like my three useless boys)... Felix is the instrumental making the trip so memorable for our group. Also thanks Felix for teaching my son Swahili. My son now sounds he is really from Africa :)
Kudos to the team from Sunworld.
What I would do differently? I would definitely try to book the lodging next time within the park parameter. But hey, it is going to be costly...

Efficient, welcoming and super friendly!
We had a fabulous experience in Kenya thanks to Image Travels, Mwanje, Husna, Jasan, Rooney and most importantly Patrick.
The highlight of the trip was the fact that we were among the very few lucky tourists who got an almost open jeep for the safaris. Patrick was our tour guide and is from Amboseli. He has a special place for elephants in his heart :).
We stayed for 2 nights in Amboseli, 1 night in Nakuru and 2 nights in Mara. Patrick is an amazing guide and can spot any animal at any distance with just a glance!
If you're planning to visit Kenya for safaris, Image Travels is the way to go. The whole team is so warm and happy to welcome you, you feel at home the whole way!!

Safari Bigfive Chimpanzees Gorilla
I had the pleasure of experiencing an unforgettable trip to Uganda with an outstanding tour operator. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. Each safari was an absolute dream, and I was fortunate enough to see a wide variety of animals, including all of the Big Five.
I would especially like to highlight our guide, Eddy. He was simply amazing! Eddy provided us with incredible insights not only about the animals but also about the country, its culture, and society. His knowledge and passion made the trip an unforgettable experience.
The chimpanzee and gorilla trekking were simply incredible and beyond words. I will never forget these unique encounters in the wild.
The accommodations we booked were all excellent. The staff were always friendly and attentive, making the entire experience even more enjoyable.
I can only highly recommend this tour operator – it was the trip of a lifetime!
