Jose is a great at showing off his love for nature and his passion for wildlife.
I actually first met Jose on a bus from Arusha going to Nairobi. We started chatting and I realised that I had found a new friend! At the time Jose was working for another operator in Arusha. He is passionate about his country and the wildlife and very knowledgeable about where to go and when is best. We talked about all sorts of things but it became clear that conservation is his main goal. Running safari's in a conscientious way is the best way forward to help that goal. Over the last 5 years we have stayed in contact and now, finally Jose has started his own business. If you want to experience Kenya and Tanzania with a local who has been to all the wildlife parks and knows his game then you will be in safe hands. There are many operators out there but choosing Jose Kim Safari's will be a great way to have a personal trip with a trustworthy guy.
My family is originally from Kenya and I have been on many safari's having grown up in South Africa and Botswana. I would love to go on a Safari with Jose! I am sure it will happen some day soon.

Great trip by Safari Lifestyles
Our children are awkward ages and we struggled to get what we wanted in South Africa initially but then came across Safari Lifestyles who recommended a few options for Botswana which we initially thought we couldn't get to.
Lodges were out of our reach for 5 of us but Roger organised a private mobile safari for just us.... we were surprised at the price turning out to be very reasonable for 9 nights.
This was brilliant and a huge education not only in nature but in life for us all, especially the kids who being the outdoors type back home, loved it.
Elephants, lions, leopards, wild dogs. giraffe, etc etc and especially for Samantha our youngest whose only interest was in warthogs. we saw everything close up.
I guess this review is asking whether you should consider using Safari Lifestyles, well we think they are the absolute best!!!!

The experience was beyond our expectation recommending it the most memorable trip of a lifetime.
The highest possible recommendation for two great No.1 drivers/guides, Dennis Taligoola and Hamza Nyelo, both a credit to Wildebeest .These perfect gentlemen were knowledgable, intelligent, equipped with guide books and binoculars, therefore very informative. Lots of fun, easy to be with, parting as friends, making a very memorable experience. Even forging rivers or chasing leopards we felt safe and secure. Our short term drivers Dickson and Ken also took good care of us. Thanks for a wonderful Safari -it could not have been any better!!!

I would choose Ute Sonnenberg and And Beyond for ALL my future travel (safari).
I had previously been on safari in Tanzania with another organization and I really believed it could not be beat. And it truly was. Ute's choices and recommendations for us were so spot on, the number and choice of camps, how many days at each, giving us the perfect variety of game to visit. She was always responsive, adjusting our trip to accommodate our seemingly endless needs, and rather last minute too. She was amazing, booking our wonderful Cape Town Hotel as well. The consistent quality of And Beyond, (we did 4 camps, two in Phinda and 2 in or near Lion Sands) the incredible talent and training of our Rangers and trackers, was unfathomable, as was the hospitality throughout. We've only been home a week and can't wait to start planning our next trip. Way beyond expectations.

Best Safari ever!
We have visited Murchison Falls National Park several times over the past 15 years but the safari we made with Adventure Expeditions Uganda in January was easily the best trip we have had. From the start the communication and arrangements were clear, efficient and friendly. We had door-to-door service in a comfortable, clean vehicle which was very much suited to our trip. We stayed at Paraa Lodge and Adventure Expeditions had put everything in place, even obtaining the type of rooms we asked for. Our guide, Remmy, was friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgeable, so that we were able to see close-up the maximum amount of game during our time, including watching a lioness stalk her prey and make a kill. Angel Kirunda, the Director of Adventure Expeditions was very attentive, phoning us during the trip to make sure everything was going well, and going out of her way to help us - my wife had expressed an interest in authentic Ugandan music and Angel tracked down a CD, meeting us in Kampala to give it to us personally. I have no hesitation in recommending Adventure Expeditions and would certainly be very happy to travel with the company again.

Excellent planning and execution by Patricia
We have considered four different travel operators for the private safari tour for our group of 4 adults for 16 days in March of 2017. Patricia from Travel for Change Africa proved to be the most professional of them all, with an admirable attention to detail, flexibility, and great communicational and organizational skills. She offered us a truly luxurious safari experience within a still competitive budget, and she managed to execute it all in style. Any hiccups, while only expected in Africa especially during such a long trip, she resolved flawlessly, even managing to upgrade our accommodations a notch higher (as in the Four Seasons). Traveling in Africa one needs to be prepared for the unexpected, but it was comforting to know there were professionals one could rely watching over us to help smooth the ride. We had traveled hundreds of miles throughout Kenya and Tanzania, oftentimes hazardous to say the least, yet we would all come back to do it all over again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended. Cheers to Patrick (our guide in Kenya)

Amazing and Unforgettable Experience
Going to a Safari with Selous Tours was one of the best choices I've ever made. Our guides were amazing, experienced and very resourceful - we were able to see lots of different animals because of them. They knew what they were doing.
Staying in the campsite at Andover Reserve was also an important part of the experience - we had amazing moments there to share our impressions, experiences and having a few drinks. The whole crew - guides, cooks, drivers - was extremely friendly, good people to talk to and to have a good time.
Last but not least, all the service was done in a very professional way - equipment, schedule, punctuality, meals (delicious, by the way), driving, etc.
