Wonderful time
As our first family safari, we thank Beacon Safaris and particularly Victor our guide and of course Robert for organizing such a great trip for us. The amazing animals and breathtaking sceneries were enlightening. It is the best adventure we have taken so far as a family.

Incredibly Fantastic
We enjoyed our safari with Beacon safaris and Mweri as our guide. The animals were incredibly fantastic. We were very lucky to see all of the Big Five. Our driver was very accommodating and knowledgeable. Thanks Beacon for organizing a lifetime adventure, we will cherish the memories for ever.

Excellent service, Excellent guides & porters, Excellent management
I climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro via Rongai route and visited Ngorongoro Conservation Area in December 2014, with a big group (28 people) from Thailand. George and his Kilimanjaro Brothers team did a great job taking care of us. George and his team tried their best to ensure all of us would reach the top. And we were pleased with our group's summit success rate (26 out of 28 people or 93%).
During my summit attempt, my porter, Zacharia, really helped me, motivated me, stayed with me all the time and walked with me all the way to the end. He was the light in my darkest hours. Without his support, I would not have made it to the Uhuru Peak.
All in all, I highly recommend George Mtaki and Kilimanjaro Brothers!

Excellent trip to the Maasai Mara
We had a magnificent trip out to the Maasai Mara that was arranged by Right Choice tours. It began with an amazing dinner at the Carnivore restaurant, followed by our drive out to the national reserve from Nairobi. On the way our tour guide, Andrew, gave us amazing insight into the history of Kenya, often pointing out geographic features and historical structures on our drive. He did a wonderful job of combining interesting information with the beautiful Kenyan sights on our initial trek.
Andrew also served as our tour guide on the safari. He worked tirelessly to make sure we had an opportunity to get near the animals of the national reserve, while remaining safe within our vehicles. We were able to see breathtaking views of a mother lion with her two cubs, cheetahs resting under trees, giraffes, elephants and even two black rhinos. Our tour guide did an amazing job of explaining the animals to us and giving us details to the national reserve as we drove through it.
Also the location that was arranged for us to stay at was absolutely amazing, the Stanley Mara. They always had a bonfire going in the evening and the accommodations were perfect for a lodge. On our last night we were even treated to dance with some of the Maasai tribe.
Overall the safari was an amazing experience and we recommend Right Choice as a service to use. Ask for Andrew!

Great Safari experience with a reliable, commited and friendly team
We had booked a 4 days Safari in Mikumi and Udzungawa Forrest with Gecko Adventure from Germany. As we did not want to travel with that much cash, we wired the money upfront. All passed very well. The communication with Rama was perfect; we were picked up as agreed from the ferry port in Dar and then taken to Mikumi in our own big Jeep by our own guide. Especially our guide, Saiid, was a real treasure. He was always friendly, reliable, very knowledgeable regarding country, flora and fauna and always good to have around. He did not tire until we had seen all animals possible during our Safari, was a good driver and a real nice guy. I cannot recommend him enough.

Riding adventure in the dessert.
This is a trip for people who love horse riding, who love being away from it all, camping out in the dessert, food cooked on a campfire and a very friendly atmosphere.
You have to fill out a questionnaire about your riding ability and the kind of horse you like. Then Thelani and Andrew ( owners and guides) try to match you with the perfect horse. They got it right for me. The horse was forward going, easy to handle and fine for a six hour riding day.
They provide a packing list for the trip. Questions are answered very well and communication about plane arrival and collecting time is good.
The staff is very helpful with setting up the beds for the night. They help tacking up the horses and try to fulfil your every wish. After a long day in the saddle snacks and drinks are provided. The bush shower has it's own changing room and then we look for a spot for a sun downer, usually accompanied by an alcoholic beverage. The camp food gives you a vegatarian option, or flame roasted spingbok stake.
Game during the day is not very abundant on these trips because the land we ride through is very dry. There are soms zebra, giraffes and different kinds of antilope. It is more about the landscape then the animals. And sitting on your horse you can feel the sun, smell the air and enjoy it all.
The riding is great. No need to ride in a line. Often there is room enough to spread out and take the occasional gallop. There are rides to suit everybody's ability. And repeat customers can see a different part of the country in the different rides.

Absolutley the best possible experience for a Safari, driver guide, organisation - simply the best!
Everything was perfect about the trip. We planned it at very short notice following a recommendation from a friend. Communication by email and a single phone call - U.K. to Moshi. We had no idea what to look for, no experience of Tanzania or East Africa in general, so TanzaniaJourneys provided a provisional itinerary and we went along with it. I can't believe how fortunate we've been. We had a wonderful driver/guide, who in one week showed us what the various national parks and conservation areas had to offer. Just my wife and myself in our own Landcruiser with a raised lid! Brilliant, I spent virtually the whole of everyday standing up and trying to spot animals before Godlisten (our guide). I succeeded only once - and that was a herd of elephants. He knew just where to find the big five and much more besides. Hugely knowledgeable about all the animals and birds and it was a joy to be in his company.
We just cannot thank these guys enough. It wasn't just the driving and guiding, it was the superb organisation. Everything happened just as it was supposed to. Even the Wildebeast (Gnu to you) were migrating to order.
The choice of overnight lodges was equally superb.
Many, many thanks guys.

22days on 4WD trip in Namibia and Botswana gave us a chance to touch the country, people and animals
We spend excelent time on the road from Victoria falls to Namibia. That enabled us to get great experience of countries, that are wery different from Europe. We were well informed and guided by Malcolm, that knew all detailes of a local atmosphere. Trip was safe for us and services on a way met our expectations. This trip gave us an idea about our next trips , that we intend to do in this all the time surprising territory.

The customer care is really accomodative, they seem to know the environment they are working in,nice
Me and family were satisfied. The four wheel van was just superb, it made us feel insurmountable-- something about the tour guide.. I think he does not just simply want to be a guide - he possesses what the company is up to, just careful.
We had a really nice experience and my wife is already ambitious to be back soon. Something I have to mention as well is that we were adequately advised before leaving the city for our safari.
Thank you guys.
