ThinkScene Safaris = Future Problems
For you readers seeking to book a safari in the next few months,
do yourself a favour and stay away of ThinkScene Safaris at all costs.
My and family traveled to Kenya in March 2025 with ThinkScene Safaris, with whom we had signed a contract on January 9, 2025, and was fully paid. During our trip, the agency demanded unjustified extra payments for already contracted services, thus violating the terms of the contract.
These charges included extra costs for confirmed accommodation, an unconfirmed excursion, and other unwanted services. I disagreed with these fraudulent requests with supporting documentation.
Despite several amicable attempts and a proposed compromise from my side (the agency retaining in an overpayment, with no further fees), the agency refused and threatened to downgrade my future contracted services. After these unacceptable threats and being insulted by my former driver, out of fear for our safety, we had to cancel the last part of the trip. I had to rebook the remaining leg at the last minute with another agency at our own expense to avoid any further disasters on our spoiled holiday.
I requested a refund for the last portion of the trip that was not honored based on these multiple contractual breaches, abusive practices, and disrespectful behaviors. The refund was refused by the agency based on their cancellation terms (non-applicable in these conditions) and a shady sentence allegedly allowing them to charge extra at will. Since then, they have ceased all communications.
The matter has been reported to legal authorities and is ongoing.
Stay safe and out trouble by not doing any business with this travel agency.
I would suggest booking a stay in one big worldwide chain hotel first.
Once it’s done, book your experience through the hotel directly engaging in their responsibility in case something goes wrong.
Kenya is an incredible country worth a visit, but it’s a shame that the behavior of some very few people ruins the overall experience.

Memorably friendly staff, incredible package.
Booked last minute (2 days notice) through Ruben responding quickly to our enquiry; a range of options was provided and we opted for the Kubu bush lodge 3 day package. Airport collection was seamless, and we arrived to a warm welcome from the lodge manager at Kubu and in time to settle in and do a sunset safari at Vuyana private game reserve; here we ticked off four of the big 5 (only missing lions) and enjoyed the open topped experience. The full day in the Kruger we had the pleasure of being guided by Lambs Senior; an immensely naturally likeable man who seemed beloved by all and gave us an unforgettable experience - he got us into prime position to see all the highlights including a stand off between buffalo and a pride of lions. Little Lamb’s excitement and pleasure was as clear as all of ours on the tour which only added to it - the man’s passion and knowledge was incredible.
Finally of note is the standard of accommodation and the hospitality from the lodge manager at Kubu Bush - an incredible experience and showering outside listening to lions roar will live long in the memory.

Quick but complete
With only 24 hours to explore, I wanted to make the absolute most of my trip; ASM Travel made that possible!
I booked just two days before arriving, and they managed to organize everything. From helping with my visa, getting a SIM card, and even assisting with bank errands, they were very accommodating. Their suggestions helped maximize every moment of my stay.
Everyone, from the shuttle driver to the guide was supportive, and genuinely cared about my safety and experience. They consistently checked in to make sure everything was going smoothly, even when weather threatened the plans. Their dedication ensured I didn’t miss a thing.
In less than 24 hours, I got to:
- A sunset boat cruise (with drinks, snacks, and spotting hippos and elephants)
- The Boma dinner and drum show
- A guided tour of Victoria Falls
- bungee jump
- And even had time to buy a personalized t-shirt that they arranged
As they are very willing to adapt to your pace or preference (taking your time or a quick visit). I had an unforgettable experience and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to make the most of their trip!
Also they encourage you to jump during the bungee jump!

Amazing safari experience in Chobe National park
Me and my wife planned a safari tour in Botsuana for our honey moon and we found on the internet good reviews about Zambezi expeditions. For sure was the best decision we could make cause everything was so well organized. We booked for the 3 days tour to visit Chobe and stay in the national park.
Thanks to all the team, we felt really confortable with the planning and the activities.
Especial mention to Francis, our driver from Victoria Falls to Chobe, thank you!
Highly recommended.

Far beyond our expectations
Our first Safari and it was breathtakingly good, so far beyond our expectations. The guide and tracker were amazing and we got so close to the animals, particularly the big 5 which we encountered on numerous times, as the guide was allowed to go of the tracks and into the bush to view. We saw very young, lion cubs, elephant twins, rhino and Hyena pups. I was slightly concerned about going in April knowing the bush would thick after the rains but it did not matter and a bit as the guide and tracker new where to look. We even experienced a water buffalo stampede (albeit we only heard it as it was dark) as two male lions tried unsuccessfully for a kill. We're not birders but saw so many different birds I'm still trying to remember the names and identify them. Five different eagles, three owls and all the other smaller birds. Well done Discover Africa
