Perfect safari, excellent partners www.kenyatanzaniasafari.com
The Destination Consultants - a family business of Nick and Susan. They are interested in each customer and therefore try to accommodate all the tourists wishes. Our trip to Kenya with Nico was superb. He did everything that we asked for (and even more). I have dealt with a number of tour operators in Kenya, but now I know it's not just another travel agency, and I have a new good friend in Kenya. I hope that those who will have to deal with Niko will remain very satisfied. All the best of luck and to Kenya to meet with The Destination Consultant

Gleeful to choose Kenya Budget adventure!
If somebody is looking forward to have an exquisite and mesmerizing experience in the Masai mara with the wild life, here's a chance. They will always exceed your expectations to amaze you. We were little skeptical about a comparatively new company but from the booking to the reception and the entire trip arranged, was smooth and flawless.
The entire team has wonderful coordination among themselves. Commute, food, water, stay and game drive was profoundly taken care of, as per our request. We were really happy to have such an experienced and dedicated guide and driver 'Martin'. Inspite of having bad cold he didn't stop or deviate our program. He continued with the drive for 3 days in Masai mara till we were transferred to another car on the way to Lake Nakuru. He did his best to show us the best of Masai Mara.
Our Trip organiser 'Ruth' is very prompt and helping. Her instantaneous help starting from making of payment to choosing a nice place to stay in nairobi is worth mentioning. Her persuasion is simply fantastic. So, no matter from which part of the world you are traveling, you can completely rely on her reception and arrive at Nairobi.

I hit the jackpot!
I can honestly say I really landed on my feet choosing Kathy and Fan of Breakdown Safaris to tour with. A more delightful and knowledgeable pair would be hard to find and I left with two new dear friends.
The whole trip, from my first tentative enquiry to the last day, was fantastic. They both made it so easy and everything went perfectly on so many levels, from the organisation to the actual safari. It truly more than lived up to my expectations. I fell in love with East Africa in that week, a feeling that has only intensified.
I saw and learned an astonishing amount, laughed my head off, watched in awe, felt an intense sense of spiritual well being and healing and came away a rejuvenated woman. Such an experience cannot be quantified in money terms, so if you are contemplating this trip and feel concerned at putting a fair chunk of your holiday fund into this experience, stop worrying, it is worth every cent and a hundred times more.
Put your faith in these guys and you will walk home a different person. I guarantee you will love every minute!! I'm even happy to be contacted personally.

A wonderful experience, great Safari guide and excellent service!
We wanted to combine a visit to our daughter who was doing an internship in Tanzania with a safari/beach trip. She had arranged her trip through Caracal Tours & Safaris, so it seemed the most logical choice to do the same. All mails and questions were always answered promptly, even though Marion was about to give birth to their second child. Marion prepared a schedule that made it possible for our daughter to join us for the latter part of the safari. We went on the 6 day trip and were really impressed by Ben's eagle eyes and knowledge of all animals and especially birds. We saw the big five, thanks to Ben who seems to be able to spot a canary at a 5 mile distance. He is a very skilled driver who is capable of simultaneously driving and having a conversation and even then spot animals miles before we did. Also his sence of humour and the sometimes philosophical discussions we had during our trip were really great! But beyond all this, they have been a tremendous help when our luggage got lost, they kept in contact with the airport and Ben spent hours to retrieve our bags when they finally arrived and the only comment was: that is al part of the job. We slept in really diverse but all very nice locations and had a wonderful time! After the safari on December 24th, Ben drove us to our next destination and we still feel a little bad that that even made him miss Christmas eve at home, because he had to drive all the way back again all by himself (abt. 8 hour drive!) luckily he was back home again on Christmas morning. In addition to that, they have been really great to my daugther and her friend, helping them in many many ways, for which we are really thankful. All in all, an experience that exceeded all our expectations!

Ruaha with an expert
My wife and I were fortunate enough to spend a weekend of November 2015 with Paul Tickner Safaris at Ruaha National Park.
Having enjoyed some other sights of Tanzania, this proved to be a real - and well hidden - highlight, and Paul proved to be true expert in his field. His knowledge of the park and of the wildlife were apparent throughout the safari, and his local contacts ensured entirely faultless logistics.
We couldn't attach a higher recommendation for a safari with Paul. We look forward to visiting again.

Travelling with Makasa was fantastic!
Wildlife, nature and people in Tanzania speak for themselves. We really loved the tented camps, the beautiful tents, our fantastic guide Kalibi, the way our son has been taught so many amazing things during the gamedrives and the glass of wine at the fireplace.

Beautiful Uganda! Beautiful Gorillas! Beautiful Chimpanzees!
I had an amazing adventure, trekking through the rainforest in Bwindi, tracking chimpanzees in Kibale, and staying at extremely comfortable tent accommodations in Uganda. Peter, my guide and driver, was incredible and is now a life long friend. I especially appreciated the personal attention given to designing my time in Uganda. I wish there were ten stars for this rating!

Excellent Safari
A visit to the Serengeti was just one of the best moments in my life.wonderful scenery and seeing the animals in one group was marvelous, thanks to our guide Martin for making our safari even more fun I will definitely recommend him to my friends.

The mix of van animal sighting and boat animal sighting was really neat
We, a group of 4 friends, did the 3 days Murchison Falls tour with this company.
From the start they were extremely efficient and made us feel confident even when weeks before we were wiring money to them in Uganda.
The van (open top) was a little old and could do with some maintenance but we always felt safe and the driving was safe too. Our driver, Sula, took us safely and efficiently to the north of the country and back.
Their camp near Para, inside the park is great and we loved the tour. The mix of van animal sighting and boat animal sighting was really neat. The park ranger that boarded our van at the Para ferry and did the north bank tour with us was absolutely excellent. She knew everything about the park and even seemed to know every animal species whereabouts. Great!
In the whole we would definitely go on a safari with them again and thus certainly recommend you do too.
