Safari experience at the highest professional level
I am a travel agent, and I came with a small group.
Already from the initial engagement with Paul and Ole, I knew that I had come to the right place and persons.
The planning of the trip was accompanied by professionalism, reliability, availability, high service awareness, and reasonable prices in relation to the return.
The entire trip was designed for the smallest details, just as important as the big ones.
From the moment that we landed in Kilimanjaro Airport , in the reception hall, getting to know the people behind the emails and the WhatsApp conversations, I knew I'd "landed Into the right hands".
Now, let's go to James the wonderful guide.
Wow, wow, wow.... how knowledgeable.
So much knowledge, with all the willingness to share with others.
We were enthralled and thirsty for all the information he had given us. And when it comes with a smile, passion and dedication to your occupation - there is no falls, just a perfect profit for the traveler.
Thank you all for a great experience, and I'm already planning the next group.

Much more than expected, don't miss!
We are 2 couples from Germany, and we traveled across Kenya self organized and also drove our car by our self. But for the National Parks we asked for local drivers and guides because they know where to go, and they have also a lot of information. We have done this in three Parks and in Masai Mara we had the good luck and pleasure that Mpairo Ole Kiyapi (we called him John) was our guide.
We arrived in the camp early afternoon and John was waiting for us. As we started the Game Drive in the afternoon John promised that this would be the appetizer for the next day. After a few hours and lots of Elephants, Lions, Buffaloes, Cheetahs and thousands other animals we could not believe that this would be the appetizer. But John kept word.
As mentioned we have made some experience also in other parks but there is nothing really to compare. John has a great knowledge where to go and guided us much closer to the BIG 5 than expected. He is also a nice boy with a charming humor (ask him about the story of discounts when a man has to pay the cows for marry his wife).
Also a wonderful experience was to visit his village which is located close to the Ololaimutiek Gate. We get a very warm welcome and traditional songs and dances and nothing looks like "Tourist Style".
If you are searching for a Guide or a tour: clear recommendation!

22 days travel with Frank was a great experience
I made with Frank a tour of 22 days in Uganda. We had many times contact by email and he understand what we like and what we don't like.
We saw so many different things people nature and the animals. The north was very special the Karomojong people the nature of Kidepo park was beautiful. Frank had good contact with the people and he likes to do sometimes some different thing and not only to do the touristic things. We had sometimes lunch in local restaurants very nice. We travelled in a good landrover and Frank is a very nice person and a good and safe driver.

GOOD BUDGET SAFARI!
We booked a safari with Hamadi and it was just awesome! He organized not even the tour for us; he even helped us with bus tickets to Dar es Salaam. The driver and chef were amazing. We booked a budget camping safari and the tents and sleeping bags were just fine! We highly recommend doing Safari with Face Of Africa Adventures.

Amazingly efficient and accommodating
Big Foot was wonderful to work with in all aspects from beginning to end. I have not found such efficiency in the 21 years I've been coming to Kenya. From our first call to the last contact when they picked us at the airport we were pleased with the friendliness, the care we received, and the reservations that were made for flying and for our hotel in Mombasa. It's nice to have a company that is so accommodating in providing options and making wonderful arrangements. We have used them several times and each time has been a great experience. They take care of all the details that I normally concern myself with and then some. They have connections with great places and their attention to customer care is over the top. Booking with Bigfoot makes things so easy and convenient you are left with nothing but to relax and enjoy your travel experience.

All around great three days
I had only three days of a trip to Masai Mara - and looked for something cost effective and found Karibu Safaris online. In the run up, I was grateful for Robert’s fast replies and help with online payment and organising pick up from my hotel. They also kindly babysat my giant suitcase whilst we were in Masai Mara.
And the good experience continued. Our driver and guide got us there quickly and safely and was a great guide when we first went into the park. The accommodation was also super and food throughout was yummy (and healthy). We also spent the whole second day in the park, saw a huge amount of wildlife and decided we didn’t need a third trip after such two successful outings.
I’m especially grateful that the team got us back to Nairobi in time for my onward journey - and got me safely all the way to my airport hotel.
I would definitely use Karibu Safaris again if and when I am back and can recommend them wholeheartedly!

Except the shopping schedule others are just perfect
They replied very simple but fast, and they really did everything they promised, before/ after pick-up and accomendation (very nice and comfortable ) , which is all satisfying !! the guide looks serious, but very soon I found he is so friendly and easy going. So much fun throughout our trip! And he is also very professional, telling us everything about the animals. He also has very sharp eyesight that he can always spot animals from a distance and tried everything to let us take the best photos. The cook is awesome too! Lunch box is with some limitations but the dinner was all wonderful the cook himself is very fun to talk too! I enjoyed my safari with them a lot. The only thing I dislike is we were taken to a Massai tribe, which didn’t list in our itinerary. Those people Tried to sell you souvenir desperately and the price is ridiculous ! And the chief of tribe asked me to donate to their school so straightforwardly like I owed him the money! The tribe isn’t worthy to visit because they are so impatient when introducing their culture , their only focus is how much money they can get from you! I would 100% recommend Meru Slope to all travelers but suggest saying NO to the tribe schedule directly .
