Amazing Service as our group explored Kenya
We have used Mission Tour and Travel since 2003. We have taken several groups of 24+ people to enjoy Nairobi and Maasai Mara. In addition, we have trusted them for smaller groups of 2 to 6 people exploring other parts of Kenya. Their attention to the needs of our group from pick up at JKIA through the details of lodging, in country flights, group meals, and safari experiences has been outstanding. We have recommended them to many others because of the quality service we have received. They also arranged travel in Tanzania for two of us on another occasion. I highly recommend them as trustworthy, caring, and competent to handle all your travel needs in Kenya and East Africa.

Excellent safari experience
The safari trip was really great. We saw a lot of animals on all 4 days. Our hotels and bush camp was good as expected. We loved the food in all places. Our guide Melita was also a great and experienced driver which is important when going through difficult wet, washed out or mountainous roads. Guide also knew in depth to answer all our questions about animals and their behavior and also about interesting geological formations you will experience on your way. Masai village visit was fine to see their houses however souvenir prices felt very expensive and you need to bargain a lot. Our domestic flight to Arusha was diverted to Kilimanjaro due to bad weather, but pick-up was organized and waiting almost immediately at the airport. Suricata stuff are really helpful and answered a lot of our questions before and during our trip.

Very fast, accurate and reliable tour operator.
Golden Safaris was very reactive when answering our requests, understood them precisely and knew what was to be done. They were also proactively on the look-out for better deals for us, which was much appreciated, and helped us save a lot of money.

Well organized and luxurious safari experience
We had a great safari vacation with African Big Cats! They organized everything including airport pick up, all safari accommodations, and flight/accommodations/transport in Zanzibar. It made the trip feel seemless and luxurious. The only thing we had to focus on was trying to find all the animals!
Our guide, Lovoi, was also amazing. Every day, he made sure the land cruise was well stocked with drinks, set up a nice picnic for us whenever we were out in the field, and cleaned the vehicle every night so it was nice and tidy for another day of safari. This really made a difference as it can get really dusty and muddy in the Serengeti! However, the most amazing thing about him was his hawk vision. One day, he said a black dot on the horizon was a rhino. I didn't believe him until I took a picture of it on max zoom. Make sure you ask for him if you go with Big Cats as he'll make sure you see as much as possible!

Perfect in every detail
Bernard is the right person in the right place. He was very polite and what is more important he was perfect organized and prepared for everything.
Our trip was good scheduled and we were totally taken care since we have met at airport. Even when we wanted change a plan, Bernard was flexible and try to find for us the best solution. Athosphere was very nice, we really enjoyed company of Bernard and Sophie.
We decided to go with TrueVine Safari, because that was the best offer and we don’t regret - we get great price and everything was exellent prepared.
We truly recommend TrueVine Safaris. They will organized everything for you so you can without any stress enjoy your trip.
Thanks for our memories!

Fantastic Trip! Couldn’t ask for more!!
We read a lot of reviews on the Internet about this company before booking with them. I must say the staff are the friendliest and most helpful people. We had such a fantastic time— the flights were great, the lodge (resort) was huge and beautiful with a rich buffet for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and our local tourguide Peter is absolutely killing it! Ask him anything about any wild animal that you come cross, for sure he’s already have the answer for you.
We had such a fantastic time, and nothing to complain

Absolutely Breathtaking! Must do!
I loved Tanzania… Asanti Bibi tours took great care of me and made my bucket list item a reality. I would suggest everyone tries this at least once. Makumi National Park did not disappoint.

Amazing
I went on the Kenya & Tanzania Safari with OAT Travel. Our tour leader was Jartan, and he made the trip extra special. The trip was like being in a National Geographic film. We saw the big 5 and then some, close up. Jartan and our driver, Kelvin, knew where the animals were and got us up close and personal. I never dreamed I could be close enough to a lion or an elephant that I could touch them. What an experience. We saw prides of lions and lion kills. Jartan's favorite animal is the hyena. He almost had us convinced they are cute. He is that good. I was a little hesitant about sleeping in tents but discovered it was like "glamping". We always had a bathroom and shower. The amazing this about the tent was we could hear the animals at night. Since our group was small, we could go into little villages and homes. Always felt safe with Jartan and Kelvin as our guides and guards. Everything about this trip was 100% wonderful. I think all future trips will pale by comparison. Would I do it again....in a heartbeat. This truly was a trip of a lifetime, and I thank Jartan for leading me. He is the best.
