They were amazing.
From the airport transfer to our hotel to the trips we booked through Serengeti Sunrise Safaris and the transfer back to the airport we couldn’t have asked for anything more.
Maddy who was our guide on the trips to see Stone Town, Prison Island, Maasai World,Spice Farm and Quad biking was amazing with his knowledge, patience and enthusiasm. We had so much fun with him and spent most of the time laughing.
We were accompanied by Maddy to the airport to travel to Arusha for our trip to the Serengeti and the Crater. We met Didas in Arusha and he was a pure gentleman and it was a pleasure to meet him. He introduced us to our guide for our safari who was just as friendly.
Rajab was a great guide. His knowledge was outstanding and his commitment to his job was evident in the way he treated us.
For the two days we spent with Rajab we explored the Serengeti and the Crater and nothing was too much trouble for him. He treated us us with respect and kindness.
I could go on and on about the service this company gave us.
I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants an unbelievable experience.

Absolutely excellent
Great comms, answered my many questions on WhatsApp beforehand and they planned absolutely everything.
We were met from our hotel in Zanzibar by a taxi driver, flights included and met by Daudi at the other end ready for safari - v smooth as we didn't have to do much!
Daudi and our cook, DVD, were absolutely fantastic and gave us a most memorable trip. They were fun, generous, and really passionate about us having a good experience. The food was delicious and DVD catered for my gluten intolerance too (which is one of the reasons why I chose them).
We managed to see everything because Daudi worked hard to find different animals, and he made sure we had the best spot once we got there. He also gave lots of info about the animals and the parks and Tanzania etc.
I have to say, it felt more like travelling with friends, which is how I prefer to access tours in different countries, I don't want anything stuffy, I want to have the real experience.
Also could not fault the price, we chose this company because it was one of the cheapest and it matched out budget, but we still saw the same animals as more expensive operators and I noticed a lot of people had packed lunches, but we had a personal chef so every meal was hot, fresh and tasty!
Thanks to everyone involved.

Professional and Responsive
We had a wonderful experience booking our safari through Rodgers. He was very helpful, friendly, and very responsive, always quick to answer our questions and assist with any changes. He went out of his way to arrange a last-minute private transfer from Maasai Mara to Nairobi, which we truly appreciated.
Rodgers proved to be trustworthy and professional — when we decided to cancel an optional activity, he immediately and graciously processed the refund. Our driver, Jim, was extremely knowledgeable and knew the ins and outs of the park, making the experience even better.
Overall, it was a great trip, and I would definitely recommend Rodgers and his team to friends and family.

Unforgettable Safari with Jockey Tours – Huge Thanks to John Mwangi!
We had an incredible experience with Jockey Tours — from start to finish everything was perfectly organised and exceeded our expectations. Our guide, John Mwangi, was absolutely outstanding. He was friendly, professional, and unbelievably knowledgeable about the wildlife and parks.
John made sure we were always in the best possible spot for sightings — we saw lions, elephants, buffalo, giraffes, and even a leopard thanks to his sharp eye! He also had a great sense of humour and made the long drives enjoyable, sharing stories and insights about Kenya’s culture and nature.
The vehicle was comfortable and well-maintained, the lodges were excellent, and we always felt safe and well taken care of. It was clear that Jockey Tours really cares about giving guests the best possible experience.
If you’re considering a safari in Kenya, don’t hesitate to book with Jockey Tours — and request John Mwangi if you can! He truly made our trip unforgettable.

The tour operator Justine was excellent - took care of everything very thoroughly & professionally
I traveled by myself to Zanzibar and decided to book a safari through Shammah Wonders and it did not let me down. The whole experience was nothing like Ive ever done before and all the details were well taken care of. The tour guide - Tiko - is such a genuine and cool person that has very detailed knowledge of the animals and you will not be bored traveling with him - you might even see a leopard (; The whole experience with this company was excellent, I felt safe the entire time and I will definitely book with them again when I come back for a safari.

Trip of a Lifetime with Banok Safaris
We recently returned from an unforgettable journey with Banok Safaris, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Benson did a phenomenal job designing and customizing our itinerary to suit our interests and needs perfectly.
Exceptional Accommodations
Each camp and lodge we stayed in was unique and top-notch, offering a beautiful mix of décor, charm, and stunning scenery. The staff were consistently warm, gracious, and attentive—making us feel welcome and cared for throughout our stay.
Outstanding Guide Service
Our guide, Eric, was truly exceptional. From the moment we met him, he was welcoming, knowledgeable, and incredibly thoughtful. His driving skills and wildlife expertise made every game drive exciting and safe. On our very first day, we saw four of the Big Five within just two hours!
Above and Beyond Care
Eric’s kindness stood out when my aunt had difficulty getting in and out of the vehicle due to her knee and hip. Without hesitation, he went out and purchased a step stool to make things easier for her—a gesture that meant the world to us.
If you're considering a safari, we wholeheartedly recommend Banok Safaris. Their attention to detail, personalized service, and genuine care made this a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
