Timothy is one of the nicest and most competent people I have ever met.
The safari with Timothy was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. Timothy is a guide who lives and loves his work and what he does. He has a wealth of knowledge about all kinds of animals and a passion for Kenya's birdlife. Timothy is not only technically competent, he is also one of the warmest people I have ever met. He is open, communicative, and caters to his clients' wishes, whenever possible. All in all, I can only recommend everyone to have this experience for themselves.

Excellent Experience Beginning to End
Our experience with Shanjoy for a private 12-day tour across Kenya and Tanzania was excellent beginning to end.
Communication was always clear, reliable, and prompt from the initial quote email through to booking through to actually being on safari. I really appreciated during the initial booking phase that Shanjoy gave me time and space to consider the options and never made me feel pressured. When I asked for changes to the itinerary, they were done quickly and accurately. The lodges that Shanjoy selected were great — good food, great service, clean and comfortable rooms, and excellent locations inside the parks. Shout out to Rodah for all of her support.
On safari, our driver in Kenya was Patrick. Patrick was fantastic. He was a perfect mix of informative when we asked questions, but also let us have space so we never felt awkward and pressured to maintain a conversation. He is a very genuine and nice person so conversations with him were very natural. He is a very competent driver and a good wild life spotter with over 20 years of experience. I also appreciated that he was respectful of the animals while getting you close up viewings. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and reliable. No major breakdowns (and the one minor breakdown Patrick had fixed in 10 mins).
Transferring vehicles at the border of Kenya-Tanzania was smooth. Eric was our driver in Tanzania (Mama Savanna is Shanjoy’s partner company). Eric was a top notch wildlife spotter and a great driver. Again, the vehicle was clean, comfortable, and we had no issues or breakdowns.
Overall, I highly recommend Shanjoy. Next time we are back, we’ll be booking again with them.

Fantastic experience
A fantastic wildlife experience in the heart of Tanzania's natural parks.
The trip was a complete success, leaving us with unforgettable memories.
Our guide Mustapha was extraordinary. His knowledge of the parks, the animals and the many anecdotes told along the way enabled us to enjoy the trip to the full.
Thank you Mustapha!

The experience is the best. Petro’s was an excellent guide, he let us know every detail about the animals and the park, it made us have the best experience. He realized that we don’t understand much the language and explain us slowly and gentle for us to understand and have fun.

Well arranged safari with superb driver Denis. Caring, friendly and reliable for solo traveler.
As a female solo traveler who came the 1st time to Afica, Stephen as the tour coordinator is very reponsive and patient, and Denis as the driver is the key man to fulfill all my dream and made the whole tour wonderful and fun.
Stephen always reply my requests and questions promptly, no matter it's related to the tour or about the safty issue. He Even texted me to care my flight, accomodation and everything readiness before and after safari tour. Even later i found the optional activity price such as balloon safari, Boat drive in Lake Naivasha was quoted much higher than other travel agency, the tour experience was still satisfying.
The driver and tour guide Denis is very friendly, caring and professional. He delitently introduce the animal trait, habits, so as the culture, language, and whater we passed by during the road trip. I can feel his sincere love to the animals and the land which make me feel so much warm. Everyday he will confirm with me for tour schedule next day, and is very flexible if i have extra request to adjust. He is always on time with very clean vehicle every morning, as we know it's super dusty even muddy whenever going through a safari.
He is friendly and generous to share everything with me including his wifi, binocular, snack and soda :D he is more like a true friend instead of just a tour guide. i bet everyone will like him very much if you have trip with him.
