Fantastic Safaris is the fantastic agency
My experience in Tanzania with this agency was fantastic! Abdallah arranged the perfect tour for us, all the accommodations he chose for us and also the itinerary were great. The tour was very well organised in time. The guide was really professional and shared all his knowledge about nature with us. Fantastic Safaris is the fantastic agency for your safari.

An amazing friend
Amazing....a real friend in Zanibar on a
I was there a week ago and I met a wonderful person who runs it.
First he is very kind and flexible and he knows the island very good.
I found unexpected friend who was there for me in a case of emergency.
I was in the airport and felt bad and he came for me. Even I took his tours few day before and he was there with me until I felt well. .for few hours and he didn't charge for it.
I really felt lucky to know him

Excellent experience! Professional, friendly, reliable
Go with them!
We traveled to Tanzania for safari in August 2015 and we had an excellent co-operation with It Started in Africa. We had a detailed preparation a few weeks before the trip, via e-mails. Kind and friendly, ready to assist you in anything you want. We had an amazing private, tailor-made tour. The guide was a perfect man, the car reliable and the whole staff very professional. I had the chance to meet them when I visited their office in Arusha for some arrangements.
One more thing I would like to say is that, it is not all about money, something that I really appreciate. When you go such a trip, you need reliable people around you that they are ready to help and advise you. They did help me with some issues and requests (for example, I requested a local sim for having 3G during the trip) and they did it without any additional charge.
Go with them. Professional, friendly, reliable!

Visit Uganda! Do it with Karumuna!
I mean it, both of it! Great country, amazing people!
The park was an amazing experience. The service provided by Karumuna Safaris is excellent. The owner goes above and beyond to meet the clients needs and expectations and is very concerned with the clients well-being. No wonder that our expectations were more than met. Karumuna will take you to any park in Uganda and I can highly recommend them. Thank you Richard and Moses for a wonderful time.

Good Job bring us an amazing trip
The great arrangement from Somak give us a memorable experience for the Safari and travel in Kenya. We feel our every single penny was worth to be spent. The tour guide cum chauffeur was knowledgeable, good-humored, helpful and full of luck (a leopard was passing by in front of our land-cruiser when we had the game drive in Samburu National Park!!! We believed this kind of fortune came from the ‘lucky hat’ of the tour guide :) . Besides, they do care enough for our meals as we are vegetarian.
I am planning for the next trip in Africa even I just came back from there. For sure, Somak will be my first option as the tour organizer.

Great Safari
My family and I had a great experience with Wild Root Safaris. Matthew was excellent with planning and answering my hundreds of questions. Our driver, Raymond, was also great. He knew a ton of information about the animals, parks, Masai culture, and so much more. Working with a knowledgeable guide/driver really took our trip to the next level. A few negatives of the trip: we were supposed to go by the Olduvai Gorge (I had asked for it to be added to our itinerary), but our driver was unaware of this because he did not have a copy of our itinerary. Matthew refunded the money that was supposed to be used to enter the museum. We also spent our last night in tent accommodations. This was not what I expected based on the website I was given for review. I specifically said no camping and that we want running water and electricity, but this place had none of that. I wish the company would have suggested other places and told us that picking them would increase the price by $X. We would have gladly paid the extra money for a lodge and not a tent. We're laughing about it now, but it was pretty miserable while we were there. I would definitely recommend Wild Root Safaris!

Review about Serengeti National Park by StoufferLSU
Wow- it really is fantastic. I only knocked the birding because, like Ngorongoro, it takes a lot of effort to go birding here if you really want to rack up the species. But there are fantastic birds like bustards, Secretarybirds, zillions of eagles and storks, etc.
