Review about Serengeti National Park by Karl Senn
Too many cars and dust, stress for the animals, large distances covered with high speed

Flexible and reliable tour operator
Our tour operator contact was Lencer. She was very flexible in organizing our travel itineraries to meet our preferences and needs in terms of where we wanted to go, how we wanted to get there and how long we wanted to stay at each place. She also made sure that we were picked up on time by our various drivers and guides, that we reached our various destinations safely. This wasn’t easy as we travelled to see family in Nairobi, visited 2 safaris and beach vacation, all on a very tight schedule. Our various guides were also very good and knowledgeable, particularly David in Masai Mara, who made sure we saw as many animals as possible on our safari trip. On our last day of our trip, we discovered that we had a lot of extra time at the airport in Nairobi with nothing to do. Lencer then arranged for us a last minute trip to the Giraffe centre that she took upon herself to take us to. It was all in all a very enjoyable and adventurous trip. We were well taken care of 100% of the time.

Amazing Experience
My wife and I had a truly amazing experience on our safari we booked through Nature Travel Namibia. It started in the planning process working with Amber. She was very easy to work with in putting together our tour, and was always prompt in responding to messages as well as clear in all communications. Once in Namibia, our guide Wilson made the entire experience incredible. Wilson was extensively knowledgeable about local flora/fauna, geology, and history which made the experience enriching. On top of that, he was very professional yet friendly and personable which made the trip even more rewarding. Additionally, we are incredibly grateful to Amber, Wilson, and Joram for helping navigate our lost luggage and coordinating a meetup to get it back! We had a truly amazing trip to Namibia!

Excellent Safaris in the Kenya parks
At Jocky Tours and Safaris we booked a 7-day Safari around Kenyan parks - Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, Amboseli. We were very lucky with the driver Geeman, who worked throughout the trip not for a tick, but to get us the best views and as many animals as possible. We saw lions, cheetahs, hyenas, elephants, rhinos, giraffes, hippos up close.
The trip is well organized, water throughout the trip, food, accommodation, nothing to worry about. We were extremely satisfied.

Top notch luxury service
We spent about 8 days in Kenya. Charles was our contact and he organized everything from when we landed to when we departed. My wife and I wanted a private trip and one that encompassed Nairobi, safari and beach. We also took our trip in last week of March so we knew rain was a possibility and could make things difficult. I would say definitely we were looking for the luxury feel and Charles delivered! The accommodations and food everywhere we stayed were excellent and they even asked us before our trip what our food preferences were and they were able to accommodate it all. We ate very well and was never sick! Money well spent. Nairobi was great and we learned a lot about local food, culture and everyday life. The safaris were off the charts. Accommodation was a luxury tent on the river banks where we can view hippos and crocodiles from our porch. The drives were great and we saw every animal conceivable except the leopard … next time. We always felt safe and got great pics of all the animals. Charles knew where all the animals were and every drive was so informative and mind blowing. We went to Dania Beach to soak up the sun and was impressed with the beachfront resort. The water was clear and the rooms were very comfortable and yes there was AC. We can’t wait to return to Kenya and surely we will contact Charles as we know he will ensure we have a memorable time again.

Worth every penny. Great Safari.
Paul is very responsive to all our needs. Our flight was delayed and luggage was lost but Rambles Africa sorted it all out.
John Masek was our safari guide. A proper Masai who know the Mara and Amboseli like the back of his hand. Drove us right into the action. We saw all big 5 in one day, we followed the wildabeast and zebra migration. We saw amazing panromic views with so much wildlife ( take binoculars or good lens to see animals miles away).
We got up within meters of lions, cheetahs, massive elephants…

A peaceful, comfortable and relaxing travel experience
Our guide Joseph was very patient, emotionally stable, good driving experience and experienced with animals, provided us with a near perfect trip to Africa. We had a very relaxing safari experience in Africa, and despite a full schedule, Joseph always made sure we left on time, saw as many animals as possible, and had a relaxing day. Although I have only recently left Kenya, I am sure I am very much looking forward to my next trip back to Africa and will certainly look forward to traveling with Joseph again.

Meru Slopes is a reliable agency which offers amazing trips with reasonable prices.
We had an amazing 7-day tour with Meru Slopes. Everything is clear and well-organized from the beginning to the end. Audax is an excellent manager who always answers the email timely and clearly and gives useful advice. Our guide Sandy is knowledgeable, experienced and easy-going and he is always try to get close to animals on the premise of rules and find the excellent angles for us to appreciate them. Not only do we learn something about wildlifes and nature from him, but also had super duper happy memories with him. Will strongly recommend Meru Slopes to my friends.

Locally owned with great guides
This was our first time in Tanzania and Africa and everyone made us feel very welcome. We had everything planned out for us, from a four day safari visiting tanjire national park, ungorogoro crater, and then finally two days in the Serengeti. After the safari we did a day hike of Kilimanjaro
I would say the biggest thing for our trip was that our safari guide Michael was VERY knowledgable and friendly. Even though we had only four days (and only 2 in the Serengeti), we were able to see all the big five and SO many lions. Michael was able to explain every animal/plant that we came across and always managed to get us in to snap amazing photos of the wildlife. He knew the parks inside and out so we were always going from hot spot to hot spot
The hotels we stayed at were all amazing as well, I highly recommend kubu kubu for people planning their nights in Serengeti
Thank you to the team at meijo for showing us a magical time in Tanzania, we will be back!
