5/5

Everything was really great, starting from e-mail conversation and informations provided before our trip (Lennox was our tour agent), until the day we were back from the safari. Our driver John knew literally everything what we wanted to know about animals, trip, place... Tent accommodation was excellent with bathroom attached. Food was fine as well. Only thing that we didn't like was our accomodation in Naivasha (unfortunately I can't remember the name if "resort"). That was faaaaaar from the resort, with extremely rude lady working there, with very limited meals and horrible rooms. If you want to get a beer there and you don't have exactly 300ksh, you're in a big trouble cause she said it's our problem and that we have to solve it, not her. They don't accept bigger bills, and they don't have Credit Card machine.

Besides that, everything was perfect and highly recommended!

Fantastic trip!
5/5

We had a wonderful safari with Kanyezi. The accommodations were all lovely and we had a good opportunity to see the sights in and around Capetown then enjoy a good length safari. When the weather was difficult in Capeton, Chris was flexible in re-arranging plans so we could see as much as possible. The Sabi Sabi Lodge was gorgeous and the service was perfect. I wish this trip could have lasted another 17 days!

Review about Hlane Royal National Park by fivetoedtravels
Overall rating
5/5

Spectacular! With our knowledgeable guide, we saw giraffes lunching on leaves, a pride of lions snoozing, elephants flapping their huge ears to keep cool, hippos submerged in water pools, and most special of all, walked close to about 20 white rhinos, and watched them eat, nap, scratch themselves on tree branches and roll about in a mudbath. Brilliant!

A highlight of our month-long travels in Southern Africa was walking with the wildlife in Mlilwane.
Overall rating
5/5

One of our first stops on our tour of 6 countries in Southern Africa was Mlilwane Sanctuary in Swaziland. We stayed in a delightful thatched-roof rondavel at Sondza Backpackers, and had great dinners and breakfasts cooked up by the local ladies. In the morning, we walked from Sondza to the sanctuary centre and then along the Hippo Trail. Altogether about a 3-hour hike along well-kept paths through spectacular scenery, with some very special close-up moments with wildlife. Nothing dangerous... no hippos or "big 5", though a few crocodiles in the distance. But lots of impala, warthogs, nyala, hartebeest, wildebeest, waterbucks, and my favourite, zebras. Who knew that zebras would make squeaky sounds to each other while patiently waiting for us to go by so that they could cross the path? Each one with its unique dramatic stripes and beautiful black-lashed eyes. Also much enjoyed were the birds such as hamerkops, blue cranes and lapwings. And the little stuff, like dung beetles and locusts. And the huge termite hills. This was one of the few times we could actually walk with wildlife, and not be driven in a vehicle. With misty mountains and green forests in the distance, it was quite a magical day.

Wildlife was excellent - the guide knew the best locations to be. Scenery - spectacular. Weather - perfect- cool in the mornings & evenings, pleasant during the day. Accomodation first rate without the cost - well chosen & central to our touring. Food very good, transport excellent. Our guide was outstanding, informative, very knowledgeable about Namibia. Outstanding safari. Go soon before it gets overrun with tourists.

4/5

The safari was great.
We went 5 days (4 nights), 2 massai mara, 1 night lake nakuru, 1 night lagop naivasha. they respected the accommodations, less in massai mara, which was not the one hired, it was fine, but it did not have the views that the other camp had in description.
They changed the order of visit to the lakes, and we ended up doing more kilometers and time in the van. the visits to the lakes were in a hurry and very fast, but they were very nice places. Massai Mara is the king of the parks, but he deserves to see these two as well, or the Amboseli who spoke well of him.
be careful with the entrances to the park, we are supposed to pay 2 days of park, but we only use 24h, and better to talk about it with the driver. Beware, they are 70-80 dollars apart.
the time to make the safari great. We saw the big five, few elephants, only 2 male lions, but very well and up close, a show, the rhinoceros great but not too close. The driver wanted to show us the animals. It was a shame not to see the migration, the animals were ready to cross but we did not see them, we were looking but nothing, although the same day others saw it, our driver did not come back in the afternoon to see it (he was in a hurry to leave the park and pay only 24 hours) ...
otherwise everything is great, food is good, accommodation is good, price is great. 90 -100 dollars a day.
we would hire again

Excellent Experience
5/5

Mr. Masinde organized the whole trip and answered all the questions we had before we embarked on the safari. Our driver/ tour guide, Mwanzia, was very knowledgeable about the animals we were to see and was punctual for all activities. He went out of his way to make sure we saw all the animals that were there and made sure that our safari was a delight. Our safari included some respite time in Mombasa to an awesome resort on the ocean. I would use this company again for a trip to Africa. Thank you Mr, Masinde and Mwanzia!
