An amazing experience, highly recommended
Right from the beginning the communication was amazing. Godfrey, the operator was the nicest person we ever met. He took care of us all along the way, always making sure that we are having the best experience. And we definitely did! We got to see a lot of beautiful animals, we came very close to them and got the best pictures. His team was the best. Making us laugh, explaining us about the animals and making sure we see all the animals from the best angles. I don’t know what more to write to explain to you that you should definitely book this trip! Best experience ever. Can’t wait to come again:)

Best experience highly recommended!!
We took the 2 days trip to the safari, from Zanzibar to the national park, everything was on time, and with a lot of caring and kindness.
It was the best experience I had here,
The lupeta safari team were the best,
Everything was in the best quality, with a lot of patience.
Godfrey was amazing ,kind and helpful he took care for everything we needed,
Stefano and Joel,the guides were amazing, they wanted to make sure we will see everything we wanted, even tracking the foot prints of a lion so we will be able to see them!
We also saw zebra, hippo, crocodile, birds,
Giraffes, elephants and their babies and a lot more!!
I highly recommend to go on safari with them,
A price that fits the quality and experience you get,
I have nothing bad to say, it was all great!!

Exceptional Safari: Empathetic, Insightful, and Adventurous
From the moment we met with Calvin Kileo(our guide) and Norah(organizer), their friendly smile and approachable demeanor set the tone for an exceptional safari experience. Not only did Calvin's empathetic nature and unwavering commitment to our comfort impress us, but his dedication to customer satisfaction meant he consistently went the extra mile to ensure our journey was memorable. His remarkable talent for spotting wildlife, combined with an impressive scientific understanding of animal behavior, enriched our adventure and deepened our appreciation of nature. Unafraid to explore uncharted territories, he led us to hidden gems that truly enhanced our experience. I highly recommend him for anyone seeking an immersive and educational safari.

Once-in-a-Lifetime Safari with an Amazing Guide - Thanks to Calvin & Gosheni!
Our first safari adventure took us to Tanzania with Gosheni, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! My husband and I had an incredible time, thanks to our amazing guide and driver, Calvin Kileo.
From the very beginning, Calvin made our safari special. He is not only knowledgeable but also calm, empathetic, and always willing to help. His deep understanding of wildlife, from the Big Five to countless birds and other incredible animals, made every moment exciting. He also shared fascinating insights about the trees, plants, and the ecosystem, enriching our journey even more.
One of the highlights of our trip was that Calvin always found the best spots for breathtaking photos, ensuring we captured unforgettable memories. His expertise and passion for nature made us feel completely immersed in the beauty of Tanzania.
We are truly grateful for this experience and would highly recommend Gosheni and Calvin to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. If you’re looking for a seamless, well-organized, and enriching adventure, look no further!

5 day fly in safari tour
The team at Telly Africa Safaris have been excellent throughout. William organised and answered all of our questions regarding our 5 day fly in safari, despite me and my wife booking fairly last minute. Before we left the UK we had a safari briefing call with William which provided all the assistance we needed just before departing, which included the companies emergency contact number. We were met by our taxi driver, Mohammad, in Zanzibar who was already waiting for us with a sign at Zanzibar airport. Mohammed was extremely helpful, kind and had a large comfortable A/C car. The next morning he was on time to pick us back up before our flight to the Serengeti. Flights organised by Telly were excellent and again all on time. When we landed in the Serengeti, Aaron our guide, was already waiting for us. We got started after a short welcome and introduction. The safari Jeep was great, fully stocked with unlimited water, coke, two brands of beer, three bottles of wine, two binoculars and was extremely reliable, never breaking down and no squeaky brakes like other tours. If you get Aaron as your guide you get his 22 years of experience. Not only is this important to spot animals (he was the first guide in one of the national parks to spot a leopard, no idea now he saw it!), but also he is clearly respected by all other guides which is important as they share information as you drive around. On top of this he has an incredible mental map of the national parks, so always gets to the big spots quickly when needed… this is also beneficial as he has the experience to go places other guides with less experience would become quickly lost in as the network of roads is complex and extensive. Our trip was packed full of once in a lifetime experiences/ sights, but on reflection, without a great guide, I would imagine you would only experience just a few, if lucky. To summarise we saw countless amounts of animals. We saw the big five and our highlights babies elephants, tree climbing lion, 11 black rhinos (from a distance but dancing viewing with binoculars), 2 leopards, 5 cheaters (including a baby). Aaron is great at spotting, explaining and allowing you time with the animals as you wish…the trip is very much yours to direct… should you wish to move quicker…or stay with a animal longer. Hotels and the daily lunch boxes provided by the hotels were good… we never went hungry! At the end of our trip Aaron dropped us back to the airport with the perfect amount of time for our domestic flight back to Zanzibar. Despite our flight landing 30 minutes early Mohamed was actively tracking the flight and was there again to great us.. stress free. Mohammed then comfortably transferred us across the island safely to our hotel which ended our trip with Telly Africa Safaris. Myself and my wife have traveled extensively around the world, this was one of the best trips to date. For us the experience was 10/10. There are so many companies out there… which made it hard for us to pick… but we are thankful we found this team! Friendly and experienced! I will be recommending Telly Africa Safaris to all my friends and family

Nick at African Skimmer Safaris is extremely knowledgeable and professional.
Nick at African Skimmer Safaris is the best and most professional guide I have used. He is exceptionally skilled in his knowledge of wildlife and how best and when to see them. Nick is very hands on when planning your Kenyan safari but can also facilitate trips to the beautiful Kenyan coast and also a guided climb up Mount Kenya. I am very glad I trusted a Nick for my safari and Kenya excursion. A lot goes into planning a successful Kenyan trip and Nick makes us very easy. I look forward to working with Nick again and highly recommend him and his company. Thanks Nick!!!

Amazing 14 day customised Safari & beach trip
We organised a custom 14 day Kenya Safari and beach trip with Peter and from the beginning he was so helpful. I asked for multiple quotes for many many different camp and hotel options and each time Peter would provide a quick response and give a breakdown on costs which made it so much easier to help decide which places we wanted to stay.
The process of payment was easy and efficient, we paid 50% deposit and the rest was paid around 1 month before the trip.
Everything about booking this trip ran so smoothly and this continued once landing in Kenya. Our drivers were always on time and so lovely. If we had any queries during our stay, Peter always responded so quick to our WhatsApp messages and was on hand to advise of times of pick ups/drop offs etc.
We had Anthony who picked us up from the airport to our hotel in Nairobi, drove us to the elephant sanctuary & giraffe Sanctuary and also made the 7hour trip dropping us off at our first camp! We stayed at two different camps within the Massai Mara region and then travelled to the coast for a beach stay returning to Narobi for one night before our flight home. The organisation from Peter was outstanding, he organised our transportation to the camps, organised our flights from the bush to the beach (which include the small safari link planes), every aspect of transport from the trip was organised by Peter and we couldn't be more grateful for his help and service.
This was our first ever trip on a safari and also to Kenya and the service from the team at Africa FlashMc could not have been better. We would definitely use them again for future trips and I would 100% recommend them.
Once again, a heartfelt thank you to Peter and the entire team. This truly was a trip of a lifetime, and it wouldn’t have been possible without all of you!
(p.s As we stayed in conservancies, we had specific drivers from the camps for our game drives therefore didn't have the tour guides from Africa FlashMc conducting these, hence why we haven't commented on that aspect.)

Outstanding service
I want to shout out to Dallas for outstanding service provided to us for a 1 day safari trip to Mikumi National Park. From booking online before the trip, communication throughout, picking up and dropping off from the hotel - everything was just excellent. The safari itself is one of the best experiences we had. We have managed to see pretty much all animals including lions, hippos, giraffes, and even spotted a leopard. All communication was smooth and helpful, all transactions were flowless. We really enjoyed this safari which was the highlight of our trip to Zanzibar. Wish you all the best!
