Thanks for your arrangement
5/5

Thanks to Kiwoito for a private customized 12 day honeymoon trip (9 days Safari + 3 days Zanzibar) for my fiancée and me, the entire trip was very comfortable and well arranged, their guide Sam explained and prepared meals for me throughout the trip Very good, as for the customer service reply very quickly, the journey during the change of arrangements can immediately reply and modify the itinerary, the owner Charles before we start the journey will first carefully explain the whole itinerary and arrangements, ask my opinion, my place In Hong Kong first paid 30% deposit, after arrival and then pay the balance, very trustworthy travel agency

Throughout the trip accommodation were arranged very orderly hotels and camps, each upgraded or special treatment for my honeymoon trip, even hot air balloons have special treatment to celebrate my honeymoon, the whole trip was peace of mind for him place arrangements

We want to switch to open roof Jeep they are arranged, so that our land closer contact with animals, any questions and requests can be answered to our land, very good arrangement

Fulfilling and educating journey to the top of Mt Kenya by tour guide sam
5/5

Hi I’m a 19 year old university student who decided to climb mt Kenya solo. Uncut Africa gave me a good price for a 4 day trip with food accommodation guides and transport included. My guide was extremely educated about the area and history and was a great guide along the way. As well as my porter and chef (Don and Kim) being amazing throughout the trip.

Overall very good experience
5/5

Really great value for your money, we did 8 days safari with my gf, really enjoyed it,
The company has planned the whole 8 days for us, the only thing you need to pay in 8 days is your drinks ( they give one bottle per day which is not enough, I didn't even expect it) everything else is included ( food , accommodation, driver with vehicle, park entry fees) I think it's absolutely worth it,
I recommend to the 8 days as you can really have a good experience of Kenya and it's national parks, what's the point of going all the way to Africa and not spend enough time on the experience,
In some of the accommodations you get a cold shower, the food is enough and basic but I recommend to buy some snacks from supermarkets as well to have some snacks.
You will see a lot of people trying to sell just politely decline , believe me they are everywhere so be prepared.
Overall go for it , it's a unique experience that you will never forget.

Well I can definitely say that the tour operator is experienced & professional
5/5

All in all it was an amazing experience, however the office owner needs to chill a bit with his sense of humour or at least that's how he would describe it. Good thing that you spend the time/tour with the operator and not him.

Awesome and unforgettable Safari experience!
5/5

We had a very friendly and professional contact with Intimacy adventures during the booking process. Nonetheless, we did not really know what to expect from a 5-day fly-in Safari from and to Zanzibar. In the end, we were surprised how smoothless everything went, from the pickup at the hotel to the airport, flights, transfers and meeting our guide for the first time. It was very well organised, even though the group was mixed with guests who had booked different Safari durations.

Our guide Mali was incredibly experienced, he knew the national parks like his second home, enabling us to see not only all the Big Five, but also a lot of different species all around the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire and Lake Manyara. He had profound knowledge of the animals, the landscape and the history and we learned and saw so much in just five days with him. We also want to emphasise, how perfecly he and the driver of a second Safari vehicle (with Godfrey as a driver and guide) harmonised to double the chances of seeing various animals, this was a big advantage over just having one car. Thank you very much, Mali, it was a real pleasure meeting you and being your guests!

The additional balloon ride in the Serengeti was also awesome. Getting up early to experience the sunset up in the air was absolutely worth it! Luckily, this day we were the only guests in the balloon, being able to share the experience only with the very motivated and experienced crew with Pradeep as our pilot. We recommend the balloon ride to everybody who can afford the extra price!

It may be our only point of critique, that mixed accommodations led to everyday additional transfer rides to pick up ereybody and less time to be on Safari.

Altogether, we were absolutely happy booking with Intimacy Adventures, it surpassed every expectation we had up front. Thanks to the whole team!

Created a memorable itinerary that exceeded our expectations
5/5

We gave Ines a budget for 6 pax and asked for an itinerary that included safari and beach in South Africa. The tour she created was amazing with 4 nights safari and 3 nights on the beach at Ballito. It exceeded our expectations and was great value for the budget we set. All transfers were included and perfectly reliable. Would highly recommend.

An amazing safari with an amazing guide!
5/5

The communication with Morning Star tours was excellent from day one. Dennis always replied to my emails promptly in a professional and friendly manner and we were very happy with our planned itinerary.
We had an amazing safari with our tour guide Moses. He was friendly, knowledgeable, patient, helpful and very respectful of the wildlife and nature.
We highly recommend Morning Star. Our first safari was incredible and we already have ideas for our next one! Kenya, we will be back ❤️

A precious game drive with a local Masai guide
Many people travel in search of something out of the ordinary. I am one of them.
When I chose this safari tour, my first requirement was to say in a lodge with a view of Mt.Kilimanjaro. My second requirement was that it was a private tour.
I searched for tours on the following website: https://www.safaribookings.com/tours.
Among the nearly 200 tours available, there was one that included a balloon safari.
Mornigstar Safaris
https://www.safaribookings.com
Reservation for the August tours are filling up fast.
When I didn’t know how to enter the information required to pay the bill, they quickly send me an email to explain. It was very reassuring. Shortly after making the reservation, I was informed that the lodge I had planned to stay at was fully booked and that another lodge had been provisionally reserved. At first I was really disappointed. However, when I looked into it, I found that it was a very attractive lodge, with a view of Kilimanjaro from all rooms, and many Masai people working there. Moreover, the tour price was reduced by 42US dollars. Thank you for your consideration so that the quality of the tour would not drop. In Nairobi, a large-scale demonstration against tax increases and corruption was held one week before the tour started. Watching the live footage made me quite uneasy. I immediately emailed Morningstar Safaris to ask about the current situation, I was relived to receive a prompt reply.
Before I knew it, the first day of my tour had arrived. I thought the car that picked me up at the hotel in Nairobi would be a safari car, but it was a luxury Toyota sedan. The driver, Simon, told me that we would change to the safari car at Amboseli National Park, At the hotel where I was staying, I met William Sunte, a local guide and driver in Masai clothing. From here, we headed to the safari park. The game drive in safari car started. Sunte moved the car skillfully so that I could take pictures of animals.
I told him that I wanted to lions and tusker elephants with long tusks. While I was having lunch at Observation Hill, Sunte contacted a fellow driver and then took me a family of a dozen lions. I was very impressed and took lots of photos and videos.
On the way to his Masai village near the lodge, he guided me to an elephant with the largest tusks in East Africa. It was an exciting experience to go in a safari car on a path that only the local guide, the Masai people, knew.
At the Masai Village, Sunte’s brother guided me. I bought a few accessories. Although it was not for sale, he gave me his brothe’s Runge Pole. Naturally, Sunte knew Amboseli National Park inside and out, and thanks to him, I was able to take thousands of memorable photos and videos. It was my first experience to ride a hot air balloon. Moreover, I was able to see many animals such as elephants, giraffes, zebras, and Thompson’s gazelles from a different angle in the scenery that quietly flowed below. It is an attraction that I recommend you to experience at least once. The champagne after landing with the fellow passengers was the best. My two-night, three-day game drive was much more than I expected. It is a trip that is not easy to come, so I recommended choosing a reliable safari tour company. I stopped by the Morningstar Safaris office twice and was treated very friendly. I really appreciate the lovely Masai blanket that I received as a souvenir from Morningstar Safaris.
When I visit Kenya again, I will rely on Morningstar Safaris to provide me with the best, safest and most comfortable trip possible. Thank you for all your help. I am so grateful for the opportunity to be surrounded by wild animals for these three days. I feel that my everyday life in Tokyo was something out of the ordinary, and it made my life after returning home more enjoyable.
Asante sana.
