TRIP PLANNING
Going to Africa has been a dream for our family but we had no idea how to start planning. Working with Morning Star Tours made the process seamless. Specifically, Alice was everything you need in a travel consultant: knowledgeable, responsive, informative, patient, flexible, and she made the process fun! Alice provided us with a number of different options based on budget, length of stay, activities and types of accommodations. All tent camps or hotels she provided were very high quality, transfers, trains and tours were perfect. There was not a detail that was not considered so the trip was incredibly smooth. She was able to support our request to visit six different parks and go to the beach, providing us with expert recommendations about timing, itinerary and important things to see and do from tourist sites to cultural experiences and even volunteering. She answered all of my questions (and there were many) to help us refine the perfect trip for our family. Even when we were there and had questions, she was just a text away. With her help, we created truly core memories which our kids will remember forever.
IN KENYA
Alice had booked us with one of their trusted drivers, Alex who was an incredible driver and wild life guide. We felt 100% safe with him as he navigated city traffic, rural roads, and some tough spots in the parks. With Alex we saw every animal we could have imagined and more including the "Big 5." We saw herds of elephants, lions of all sizes (the babies!!!), a leopard from afar, cheetah up close (including a mama and her young), rhino and many water buffalo. Alex was quick to point out even bird, monkeys and other small animals which were very cool. Alex was with us for 10 days and got to know our family. He worked with us each day to create a plan that was right for us and we had magnificent experiences on safari where he knew how to get us front row seats to the main attractions. He always found clean places to stop and gave us time we needed but kept us on track. He took such good care of our family and was kind, helpful, experienced, reliable, flexible, patient and fun to be around.
THANK YOU Morning Star Tours & Travel!

Mohamed was very knowledgeable, respectful and genuinely cared for all on the Safari
First time on a safari and it was beyond anything we expected thanks for the staff at Meru. Kelvin helped coordinate the safari and was super accommodating to our early arrival and making sure the driver was there on time and our room was ready when we got to the hotel. Our driver Mohamed was fantastic, best Safari guide!! He has lots of knowledge about the animals, parks, tribes and great stories overall.
Our chef was amazing, the food was tasty everyday.
Overall an amazing experience, we are grateful for everyone at meru for their hospitality and kindness.

Great service
My girlfriend and I just wrapped up an incredible 5-day, 4-night safari through Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara, and I can’t emphasize enough how much we loved it. It was our first-ever safari, and I’d even go so far as to call it a life-changing experience.
As huge fans of animals and nature, this trip had been a dream of ours for a long time. Still, I could never have imagined just how extraordinary it would be. We were fortunate to spot the Big Five multiple times, including the elusive leopard, which came within 4 meters of us. The tented camp accommodations were fantastic and added to the overall experience.
Our guide, Herman, truly made the journey unforgettable. His deep passion for wildlife and conservation, combined with his immense knowledge and expertise, made every moment special. I feel lucky to have spent those five days with him, as we genuinely connected during the trip. Herman even commented that our safari experience was a perfect 10/10, especially since we got to see numerous black rhinos, cheetahs, close-up hippos, and, of course, the leopard.
Herman is also an outstanding driver, expertly navigating the rugged roads where other vehicles around us got stuck. His skill and foresight ensured that nothing disrupted our adventure.
If you’re considering a trip, I highly recommend Uncensored Safaris—they’re flexible and ready to tailor the experience to your liking.
Thanks again for making this possible. It’s bittersweet that it’s over, but the memories will stay with us forever.

Simon was amazing!!!
The experience was amazing and very well planed by Safari Soles. Our organiser, Vivian, was great throughout and very easy to get hold of before the trip to plan anything. She even set up a few surprises for us as it was a special birthday trip!
The absolute highlight for us was our driver Simon who had so much knowledge and wasn't put out by anything if it was long drives, tough animals to find, or even challenging terrain. He would go everywhere and anywhere to give us the best possible experience and we cannot thank him enough for such am amazing time from the moment we met him at Kilimanjaro airport with a massive smile on his face. He was so welcoming and went above and beyond to make the trip as special as possible. I proposed to my partner on the trip and even despite our long game drives, he would go away in the evening and plan surprises with the camp staff, or the balloon safari organisers etc... It was as if he was a local celebrity as everyone knew him and all the drivers were constantly asking Simon where the best places to go on the radio. We were truly blessed to have him as our tour guide throughout the trip. We felt so lucky to have Simon as our guide. He even had his own professional camera which meant we could spend every moment with the animals and he would share photos with us at the end of each day (which were incredible / professional quality). This attention to detail, and always thinking about us first made us feel like we truly lucked out with Simon.
We would like to thank Safari Soles, Vivian and especially Simon for making it a trip of a lifetime!
