Namnyak team made life-changing experience that we’ll treasure forever
Kenya’s Maasai Mara was everything I hoped for and more, thanks to the impeccable planning by Namnyak Tours and Safaris. The thrill of seeing lions, elephants, and cheetahs up close was incredible, and our guide Wilson, he knew exactly where to go for the best sightings. The attention to detail in every aspect of the trip was remarkable, from the luxurious lodges to the delicious meals.
One of the highlights was a hot air balloon ride over the Maasai Mara at sunrise, which provided breathtaking views of the landscape and wildlife below. The cultural visit to a Maasai village was also a highlight, offering a glimpse into the rich traditions of the Maasai people. Namnyak Tours and Safaris exceeded our expectations in every way, and we can’t wait to plan our next adventure with them.

Made traveling a beautiful but complicated country so easy!
I saw the ancient Baobab trees and got up close to tons of lemurs, chameleons and other wildlife and got to see both sides of the ocean. Overall was an amazing experience! Christina organized all my guides, resorts and hotels seamlessly from the second I stepped out of the airport to when I return to leave and customized my trip to what I wanted to see most. All of her tour guides spoke perfect English and were fun and knowledgeable about the area wildlife and culture.
I'm glad I chose 261-Exp as Madagascar is an amazing country to visit but can be really difficult to navigate. I think I would have made a lot of mistakes if I tried to plan this trip myself.

Willing to materialize customer dream with all possible ways.
I did 7 days safari as well as some hikings and sight seeings trips with Goldfinch expedition. It took 11 days altogether. My contact person and provider is Elizabeth. Elizabeth is always attentive to every detail that the whole trip was smooth, pleasant and enjoyable. Our main safari drver Assad is an excellent driver with thorough knowledge of the wildlife and the area, most importantly he is never tired of finding rare wild animals for the customers. Other Goldfinch Expedition team members like Babalu, Joel, Kassam and Razad are very helpful too. I cannot recommend enough Goldfinch Expedition for the North Tanzania safari.

** Amazing holiday! Amazing tour operator! Best trip ever! **
We recently returned from the most amazing family holiday booked with Sunset Adventure Safari (Sunset Africa Ltd). We are a family of 5, 3 children from 11 to 16. We booked the 13 night Safari and Zanzibar tour. The booking team (Emma and Sarah) are fantastic. They quickly responded to any queries we had and also kept us up to date with requirements about the holiday, such as visas and the recently introduced Zanzibar insurance! They provided a personal touch, including an initial WhatsApp call to discuss the fine details of the holiday and were also super flexible, enabling us to adapt parts of the holiday, which we did for 4 nights in Zanzibar.
The holiday itself was out of this world! Our guide, Adam, picked us up from Kilimanjaro airport and guided us for the next 6 days through the beautiful sights of Tanzania's northern national parks. He was the perfect guide! He had endless knowledge of the parks, country's history and politics, and of course the flora and fauna. He had a knack for finding the perfect spots in the parks and we saw so many things including: a pride of 12 lions resting near some trees in the early morning, the Wildebeest and Zebra migrating south from the Maasai Mara in Kenya, a herd of elephant slowly making their way through the forest and around our Land Cruiser, a mother leopard playing with its young cub on a Kopje, lions resting in the trees, 3 cheetahs resting under a tree in the midday heat, a lone lion making several failed attempts to catch a gazelle, to name but a few. We saw every animal you could hope for on the safari part of the holiday and most in abundance.
Whilst the safari was our favourite part of the holiday, the trip to Zanzibar was amazing too and well needed after 6 days on safari! Stone Town is really interesting and definitely worth a day, the beaches are beautiful and we had a relaxing 4 days chilling on the north of the island.
The accommodation throughout provided a nice mix of styles, from the plush lodges near Karatu with outdoor swimming pools, to the well-equipped but rustic tents of the Serengeti, where we could hear lions roar in the night, to the 5 star luxury of the Zanzibar hotel. The staff at the lodges greet you with fresh cold flannels and hibiscus juice which was always welcomed after a long day on Safari!
** I have been lucky enough to travel all over the world on many holidays over my 40+ years!! This is definitely the best holiday I have been on and I would highly recommend both the trip and Sunset Adventure Safari. **

Special week in Uganda with Musana Tours
My husband and I joined Musana Tours for their 7-Day Mgahinga Gorillas Lake Bunyonyi & Queen Elizabeth tour for our 10 year wedding anniversary. Richard drove us to Uganda and back and was fun and informative. Dennis was our guide for the week in Uganda and was super kind and accommodating. Other than Lake Bunyoni (fine but not our preference as a bit slow) the week was really special.
Highlights were gorilla trekking in Bwindi forest (loved the lush misty rain forest experience and of course the close encounter with the family of gorillas), the golden monkeys was a surprisingly serene and beautiful experience in the bamboo part of the Mgahinga forest, and the final accommodation in the Kazinga Wilderness camp was so good! It’s within the park so you don’t have to go far for the animal experience. We had hippos come to dinner the second night (safely below a raised open restaurant) and water bucks, buffalo and wart hogs the next morning. The boat experience in the channel in Queen Elizabeth Park was so good. We didn’t expect much but got to experience so much wildlife up close including elephants, hippos, water buffalos, and a lone hyena digging into the bank. We may have gotten lucky there. We also got a few special lion experiences in the park for the driving part.
Overall I’d say the tour was good value for money and is a great option for someone looking for a fairly priced private experience.
