Helpful, friendly staff, but check the details
Chose these guys from many as they were very accommodating during planning stage, although we were disappointed in the alternative Masai Mara accommodation chosen once our choices were unavailable. Joseph and Ronnie are both knowledgeable and diligent guides: we were pleased they drove carefully and well, spotted animals at great distances, and were regularly sharing information with, and helping, other guides. Communication on key points like where our flight would leave from and the need to pay baggage fees for all bags was poor or even misleading, but asking for copies of the plane tickets would have let us check ourselves. Felt like everything was under control and we were supported throughout. Recommended.

Amazing service, caring staff from start to finish!
From booking to the completion of our safari, everything was handled. The staff was knowledgeable and shared with us about the location and history. From day 1 we were picked up expediently and our safari began. The staff handled all accommodations and tours. The accommodations were breathtaking and worth every second. They presented every animal imaginable and provided numerous stops to enjoy the local culture. I will absolutely and recommend to anyone to book with Mama Savana Safaris. There is no company better to provide the level of service expected!

Devestating
I had no time and John and his guide, Frederic, found a way to get me to see the Mara river and the Wildebeast migration anyway, for a very reasonable cost despite all odds. I am very grateful and cannot recommend them more earnestly. Just honestly tell them your situation, and he can optimize it.

Holiday of a Lifetime
We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, and it lived up to all our expectations. This was some feat considering that we were a family of four - with 2 mature daughter - each of whom had different interests and needs. All these were satisfied by the holidays, which included different types of accommodation and experiences.

Fantastic operator and perfect organisation.
I don't normally write reviews but feel that I must after just returning from a trip to the Mara, Amboseli and Zanzibar with my family courtesy of Kennedy at Doyen Safaris. I had an idea of where I wanted to go and where I wanted to stay but with Kennedy's contacts and suggestions he came up with the perfect itinerary at a very good price compared to other operators I had contacted. He even looked after us during our brief time in Nairobi and with his driver Joseph, acted as a tour guide of his wonderful city ! Nothing was too much trouble and all the questions I had for him before the trip began were answered very promptly (even surprise flight changes!).
I must admit I had reservations about booking a whole trip through a local operator, but with Doyen I did not need to worry, and in fact it proves that it is actually better to go with someone with local knowledge.
Great operator. Highly recommended. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Very memorable tour with Pearl Afric Tours
The service from Pearl Afric Tours was top notch. The safari was surreal and certainly lived up to expectations! I am so thankful for the opportunity of having toured with them.

An Exceptional Experience
Ute helped us with our honeymoon trip to South Africa, we wanted to do a safari and a visit to Cape Town. Ute had been very patience with us throughout the planning phase and she has an outstanding organizational as well as coordination skills. From the time we arrived in South Africa everything was well planned and prepared, we did not have to worry about a thing. We stayed at the Phinda Mountain lodge which was an exceptional experience. The staff, service, accommodation etc were just great. We spotted all the big 5s in Phinda, so the game viewing was amazing, this is definitely a place to visit. After the Safari we headed to Cape Town and stayed at the Table Bay Hotel - the location was very convenient, we really enjoyed our time in Cape Town.
We highly recommend Ute for your future trip, you wont be disappointed!
Thank you Ute for everything.
