A well arranged safari and an impessive experience!
Our son stayed in Kenya for a period of time and we decided to go and visit him there.
You can’t possibly visit Kenya and not go on a safari so therefore we decided to book one. We booked our game drive’s with Travel for Change. It was our first time to visit Africa and we had no experience with safari’s but we trusted Travel for Change that everything would be in order.
We enjoyed the beautiful parks so much: Amboseli and Tsavo-west. The three of us we enjoyed the luxury of a private van. That was really a plus on the whole trip.
The driver was professional and able to tell us a lot about the wildlife, the nature and also the country. With constant energy he kept driving us around to either find that one group of Lions or this beautiful group of elephants with cubs which made our safari so wonderful. Our nights we spent either viewing the animals from our hotel room or in a safari tent. It was so special.
The final morning in Nairobi, when we had to wake up very early to go to the airport, our safari-driver was there again to pick us up from the hotel and make sure we arrived at the airport in time.
It was an impressive experience for us and we look back on a perfectly arranged safari.

amazing safari: many animals, beautiful parks, excellent guide
The communication was very clear before the trip. We had a Skype session with Iris to go over the details, and final arrangements for pick up, what to pack, accommodations, itinerary, etc. The trip went off exactly as planned. The van was very comfortable, and able to go through high water, mud, ruts, with no issues. The tent camps and small lodges were all great, with good food, showers, service, friendly staff. The best things, of course, were the places we visited (mostly in serengeti national park) and the guide, James. He was a source of much info about the natural history of the animals, the environment, and the history/current events of Tanzania. He's very gracious and put maximum effort into searching for animals, and patiently waiting for for photos or looking up details about specific bird species. The trip exceeded my expectations--hard to imagine before actually seeing this part of the world how prolific the life is, and how accessible to viewing. It was an unexpected and very meaningful aspect of the to have such a personable and communicative guide as James.

Awesome!
Safari in Kenya in July 2015.
After a long search in Internet someone recommended me Bison safaris . Well I won't regret at all. Very quick in replying emails and attention to details is assured . I had the best trip of my life. We toured sweet waters serena camp, Ashnil Samburu, Lake Nakuru Lodge and Mara Sopa Lodge. Oooh and on the last day we got a surprise gift. The pendants remains so dear to us.
Thanks to Bison safaris team. See u in August for my migration trip.

Fantastic trip
Climbed Kili via the Western Breach in early 2016. Trekili guides and staff were very professional and responsive to their clients. They far exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend them if you are thinking about Kili or any other mountain in Kenya/Tanzania.

Excellent organisation, planning and support throughout our trip : )
All our requirements were fulfilled by Trekili. We wanted a personalised itinerary and this was delivered allowing us to accomplish all our 'must do' items. This included summiting Kilimanjaro, a Safari trip to Ngorongoro Crater and climbing Loolmalasin - third highest mountain in Tanzania. All arrangements were put in place by Trekili prior to arrival in Tanzania and our guides, drivers, porters, cooks did everything they could to ensure our trip was a success. Would highly recommend Trekili Eco Expeditions
Cardboard Box was recommended to us, we left it to them, we rate their service very highly
We have absolutely no complaints - Lily did a great job - there was one last minute hitch but she went out of her way to sort it out. We were 2 couples travelling in a single car, and had a wonderful time together and agreed that we would not have had nearly as nice a time if we had arranged it ourselves which was my original intention.

Superb personalized experience.
Service was excellent and the tour did match my expectation though I did not see plenty of wild life this time. Probably due to the month which I selected. The big cats were mostly lazing around whenever seen.
The guide was very enthusiastic, very communicative and proactive.
I loved every moment of this safari tour.
Communication with the safari tour company was sometimes difficult probably due to connectivity but response on mail was prompt.
