Very happy with services provided by Safary Soles
We just returned from an unforgettable safari with Safari Soles, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice of tour operator! Before the trip, we worked with Renatta Paul to design our itinerary and communicated with Catherine for on-the-ground support while we were traveling. Both were incredibly responsive via WhatsApp and went above and beyond to accommodate all our requests. Huge thanks to Renatta and Catherine for their care and professionalism!
If you're wondering about the legitimacy of Safari Soles—rest assured, they are 100% reliable and trustworthy. As this was our first safari, it's hard to gauge if our pricing was high, but we know there are pricier options out there. Meals and drinks were included and suited our tastes well, and the accommodations exceeded expectations—clean, comfortable, and beautifully located.
Our guides were knowledgeable and ensured we got the most out of our safari experience. While we didn’t catch a glimpse of the elusive leopard or rhino, we still saw a spectacular range of wildlife, including several of the Big Five. For extras like hot air balloon rides or visiting a Maasai village, it’s a good idea to let your guide know ahead of time so they can plan accordingly.
We’re already missing Tanzania and highly recommend Safari Soles to anyone planning a trip to this incredible part of the world.

Brilliant Adventures and Safaris provided us with a comfortable, safe, & thrilling safari adventure
First, the communication between us and the Brilliant Safari team was excellent. Lightness provided prompt and thorough responses to all of our questions via email, we felt the communication was excellent. I can't personally speak on the prices, as Brilliant was the only company we researched, and we were so satisfied, we didn't feel the need to reach out to any other companies. However, I believe the value for money was excellent. We chose the midrange option and it felt very luxurious. Our safari guide, George, exceeded our expectations. His driving was phenomenal, even during very wet and tricky conditions in the Serengeti. The meals provided were excellent, especially having hot lunches, rather than boxed lunches. We were very pleased with the choices of accommodations. Finally, the condition of the vehicle was superb. The safari vehicle seemed to be much nicer than many of the other companies we passed. Overall, we are very pleased with our experience with Brilliant Adventures and Safaris, and would recommend to anyone looking to combine a safari in the northern circuit of Tanzania with some relaxing beach time in Zanzibar.

Memorable 8 Days Kenya Tour
We sincerely thank Ms. Syprose Otieno for organizing an exceptional eight-day trip to Kenya for me and my girlfriend. Although the tour began on the second day of our trip, a pick-up service from the airport to the hotel was provided on the first day. Over the eight days, we visited Amboseli National Park, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru National Park, and Masai Mara. The accommodations at these locations were excellent, offering delicious food and comfortable rooms. Lake Naivasha Sopa Resort and Lake Nakuru Sopa Lodge provided stunning views and exceptional experiences that we highly recommend to others. We also express our gratitude to our tour guide, Dickson, for providing a valuable experience during the daily game drives. He helped us find ideal locations for taking excellent photos, enabling us to see all of the Big Five, as well as numerous other animals and birds. Furthermore, Dickson’s driving skills were greatly appreciated, ensuring our comfort even on bumpy safari roads.

Excellent Best of Kruger 4 Day Safari
I did the 4 Day Best of Kruger Safari and stayed at the Kruger Gate hotel.
Great experience all around: Norman was my contact person at Nhlalala before arrival and was very responsive and helpful. My actual guide for the 4 days, Konge, was friendly, knowledgeable, and organized: he worked with the hotel and the Kruger safari guides to make sure everything went smoothly.
The 4 day experience allowed me to do several game drives within Kruger National Park and to do the scenic Panorama Route day trip.
Kruger Gate Hotel was excellent.

Fantastic 5 day safari
We went on a 5-day safari with our guide Amiri, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Before diving into the details of the safari, a few words about Amiri from Suricata: he truly made the trip unforgettable. He looked after us so well, shared his deep knowledge of wildlife, and brought us to all the best spots to see the Big Five and so much more. Every question we had, he answered with patience and passion. Thank you, Amiri, for making this such an incredible adventure!
As for the safari itself: breathtaking parks (Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti), cozy accommodations with delicious food (options for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians), and wonderfully welcoming staff. We felt safe and comfortable at every moment.
All in all, an amazing experience we highly recommend—especially if you can go with Amiri!

Great experience with knowledgeable operators and guides!
Our first experience doing safari in Uganda exceeded expectations with Ganyana. The guides were thoughtful, on time and went out of their way to ensure the best experience finding animals and giving details about them. Planning was a breeze with Ganyana taking care of the entire itinerary start to finish and executing flawlessly. Highly recommend!

Caring and quick to respond
Davis responded to my messages immediately and made sure we were kept up to date with the journey. He was even there to meet us personally at the Arusha airport when we arrived from Zanzibar.
We were on a two-day safari (Tarangire + Ngorongoro Crater). Especially the guide/jeep driver in Tarangire was very competent and gave us a lot of details about the park and the animals. Both drivers also listened well to our wishes and ensured that our safari experience was of high quality.
