This safari will remember in our memory.
Our safari was absolutely perfect, thanks to Ngao Safaris. From the breathtaking views in wildlife safari and cultural experience to Maasai and Hadzabe tribes to the incredible wildlife in Ngorongoro Crater, we had the time of our lives. Our guide Elnuru was knowledgeable and always made sure we had the best experiences. He was friendly, approachable, and ensured our safety throughout the trip. The accommodations were simple but comfortable, and we had delicious meals that kept us energized for the long days of safari. Elnuru went above and beyond, helping us spot animals and providing information on the different species. This safari was an incredible journey, and Ngao Safaris did an outstanding job of making sure everything was perfect.

Jocky Tours was everything I could ask for in a first time safari experience
The booking process with Jocky Tours was incredibly easy and straightforward, and the pricing was very reasonable for the quality of service provided. If you're looking for a well-organized, stress-free safari with an exceptional guide, I highly recommend Jocky Tours—and be sure to request Steve!
Steve was an incredible guide who made our safari experience in Kenya truly unforgettable! From start to finish, he ensured we had the best views of the wildlife, positioning us perfectly for breathtaking moments. His deep knowledge of the animals and the landscape added so much value to our trip. Not only was he professional and skilled, but he also went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had the best experience possible.

Incredible tour guide with great knowledge of both Masai Mara and Kenya in general
Our tour guide was incredible. Very professional, yet also very personable. Beyond his clear experience traveling between Nairobi, Lake Naivasha, and Masai Mara, he was able to teach us a lot about the different ways of life in Kenya, and how Kenya as a whole was doing as a country. We spent one night in particular talking until midnight. Would highly recommend him to anyone.

A seven-day Northern Tanzania safari in the midst of nature
This safari trip was a unique experience which created an unprecedented memory by combining the beauty of nature and wildlife. On the first day, I was impressed to see the group of giraffes roaming freely in the middle of the meadow. Their long necks and serene walk symbolize the unique beauty of nature. In the days that followed, it was an ঐunforgettable sight to see huge herds of elephants gathering at the waterfront. The moment was especially poignant when the baby elephants were playing next to their mother.

Wonderful experience thanks to Sadaam!
We had an unforgettable 3 day trip and a lot of it is thanks to Sadaam. The guide who can handle African roads with his eyes closed. He seems to talk telepathically to the animals - spots them from far away, knows where to find them and where they will go. There is no question about the animals he cannot answer. Impressively he’s also so famous - friends with all other drivers in the park. Having Sadaam as a guide has been the best!

Very suitable for any budget and the Balule reserve is amazing.
With Viva Safaris you can have all the experiences that exist on a safari, or almost all of them. We went in August, and on the first day we had almost seen the Big 5.
The treatment of the people is spectacular, both the guides and the staff at the camps.
It is true that we missed a little more time with the animals, or walking a little more on the bushwalk, but I imagine that the rules have something to do with these decisions.
I am very happy to have chosen them as my first experience in Africa. I am looking forward to returning, and I do not rule out doing it with them.
Thanks to the entire Viva Safari team, from Bilbao.

Friendly, informative, fun tour guides
Emile and Peter were great - they answered all my questions about the tour and got everything organised. We had a comfy car with air con and everything was thought of. The accommodation for the gorilla trek was beautiful and the trek itself amazing. This was an all included tour and nothing was too much trouble. I thought value for money was very good and thoroughly enjoyed it as a way to finish my trip to Rwanda.

Excellent service and amazing trip!
I reached out to Desert Africa Safaris for help in planning a very last minute safari in Namibia around a project I had booked there. After a negative experience with a different travel operator, I was scrambling a bit and had contacted numerous agencies looking for assistance with what I was hoping for. I was most impressed by the response from Desert Africa. Carien responded right away and expressed that the short timeframe would not be an issue. She listened to what I wanted, presented different options, and worked with me on multiple iterations to come up with exactly the trip I was looking for. While I was traveling, I ended up changing plans a couple of different times, and Carien always responded immediately, jumped right on it, and figured things out quickly for me. At one point prior to starting my safari, I had an issue with my lodging and reached out to Carien to see if she might be able to assist. Within a couple of hours, she had booked two hotels and three transfers for me, and someone was on the way to pick me up. (Her recommendation for a lodge in the area also ended up being one of my favorite stays of the trip). Having issues while traveling can be really overwhelming, and having Carien as a resource was incredibly helpful.
The pilot from Desert Air for my safari, Gerard, was also wonderful. Beyond just feeling completely safe while we were flying, he also acted more like a guide throughout the whole trip, and was so informative about the areas we were traveling and everything we were seeing. Especially as a solo traveler, having someone along who helped deal with logistics, looked after things, and was available in case I ever needed help was a huge comfort. The service from the company was excellent all around, and I would highly recommend booking with Desert Africa!
