Abraham went above and beyond for us!
Unfortunately we didn't get to make our gorilla trek due to an unexpected pregnancy. However im giving a 5 star review because Abraham went above and beyond first planning the holiday with me to the finest details, and then worked just as hard helping me establish a refund due to having to cancel the trip.
All round it was the best experience I've had with any travel guides and I've travelled to over 15 countries.
Thank you to Abraham

Responsive, welcoming, and super flexible in planning and tailoring the trip for us
The communication was clear. We wanted to upgraded rooms in our trip, and Dominic listed a bunch of options (like 10 of them) without me asking. Charles (our guide) was super adorable and helpful, and we managed to see all the big five any so many other species even though we went in December, the quiet season. Only downside was the car was a little old, but it makes sense for all cars because road condition in the safari is not optimal. Overall, the trip was a blast.
I inquired about 5 companies for our trip, and Kentau's pricing was the most reasonable, and it matched the price listed (for other companies the prices don't match, which was weird to me at first).

Perfect balance between adventure and comfort
Perfect experience: everything well organized from the pick-up to the end (thanks mister T and Daniel), incredible accommodations (beautiful lodge at Lake Manyara, very well organized tents - practically glamping) even inside the parks), meals a bit repetitive but always very good, long car trips but comfortable and above all, strong point, our guide Freddy (highly recommended), competent, passionate, very pleasant. In short, a 5 star experience

From the first contact to the end, Axis Africa operators were great in communicating and organizing.
I booked a 4 day Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru Safari with budget accommodation option. Our guide was Francis.
Communication with the main office as well with the guide from the first contact until the end was excellent.
Most important part of the safari is the amount of wild life you see during your trip. Francis went above and beyond to make sure that we could spot all the beauty of nature. I would also like to highlight that he is an excellent driver.
I highly recommend this trip.

Great experience and professionalism
My husband and I did a 2-day private safari tour to Tarangire and Ngorongoro crater and it was amazing. All the trip is very well organised, and the Lodge was very luxurious, more than we expected. Everyone is friendly and fast answering via email or WhatsApp. Gryson, our tour guide, was very nice and during the tour he gvlave us interesting information about the region and animals we would see.
Just keep in mind if you do a safari on the day you go back to the airport, to make sure that you have enough time. Keep in mind that distances are actually long and roads are not always great.

Unforgettable Safari Experience with Nomadic Essential Travel
My wife, our toddler, and I recently returned from an unforgettable safari through Kenya and Tanzania, and it’s safe to say this trip will remain etched in our memories forever.
This was my second safari in Tanzania, but my wife’s first, and from the moment we reached out to Nomadic Essential Travel, we knew we were in good hands. Their responsiveness was immediate, and their friendly, professional team made us feel comfortable every step of the way. No question was too small, and even as we tweaked the itinerary, it was clear that they were dedicated to making this journey a once in a lifetime experience.
The accommodations they arranged for us were not only eco-friendly but also cosy and welcoming. Perfect after a day of exploring. We had an amazing guide, Sebastian, who was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also had a fantastic sense of humour. Our son, who’s a bit particular, took to him right away, which is no small feat!
We were fortunate to have two guides, one for our time in Kenya and another for Tanzania. Mwajuma, our Tanzanian guide, was incredibly easy to communicate with, and together, they ensured that we saw the best of both countries' wildlife and cultures. From spotting animals to learning about the rich traditions and hospitality of both nations, every moment felt special.
Both Kenya and Tanzania are breathtakingly beautiful, each with its own unique charm. The people are so warm and welcoming, making this adventure even more remarkable. My wife was the first to say it, this trip was worth every moment and penny and I couldn’t agree more.
I wholeheartedly recommend Nomadic Essential Travel for anyone looking to embark on an African safari. They deliver an experience you won’t regret!
Asante Sana!!
