Very good Kilimanjaro trekking experience
Booked Kilimanjaro 7-day Machame route tour through Migration. Their tour guides and team are very knowledgeable. I successfully completed Uhuru peak on August 10th. I’m very satisfied of their professional service.

Inno was knowledgable, confident and an absolute professional delivering the best experience!
6 days on safari with Gosheni was amazing. Travelling from Arusha to Ngorngoro and then to the Serengeti every day was amazing. Our tour guide Inno was fantastic and made everything run smoothly whilst having the knowledge of many years experience to take us to all the best spots to see animals. Safari is unpredictable but we saw many amazing things from leaopards, lions and the river migration. Had an amazing time and Inno was a 10/10 tour guide

Bursting with knowledge
My tour guide, Inno, was fantastic to say the least… wow. What a tour he gave us!!! It was nothing short of greatness. We asked, he delivered and my family and me had expectations set which he didn’t just hit… he smashed them. We saw the great migration, leopards, lion cubs and even a cheetah chase. My only request would be for it to continue on for another eternity!! If I could give him 10000 stars I would. He delivered nothing but greatness, knowledge and passion!

A Once in A Lifetime Holiday
My husband and I recently returned from our 7 day Safari with Animal Action Safari. The week was a wonderful experience getting to see the amazing environment of Tanzania and the incredible wildlife. We booked our trip through the internet and were advised on appropriate itineraries based on a long list of questions we sent. We were looked after by Leonard and his team to ensure we got to the correct places with little effort. Our flight to the Serengeti was a wonderful start to the experience and we were met off the plane by our driver who immediately suggested to go see the migration - mindblowing. Our driver took excellent care of us throughout the safari, endeavouring to find all the animals we wanted to see plus more. He made every effort to get us into a good location for viewing and photography. He managed the conditions with ease and we felt safe the entire time we were in his jeep. The accomodations booked for us met our requirements, the were comfortable and staffed by very friendly and accomodating people. On our way back to our final hotel our driver too care to ensure we reached the correct location and made sure we were looked after by the receiving hotel. After spending 7 days in a jeep you build a relationship with your driver and we certainly felt a friendship with Leonard and was sad the safari finished. Animal Action did everything to ensure we had a wonderful holiday. The only thing we suggested was the ability to pay via credit card would increase ease and confidence in booking but apart from that everything was great. I would highly reccomend choosing Animal Action Safari to provide you and your family with the experience of a lifetime.

Very helpful and quite responsive！
Thanks very much for our agent Jemimah, we booked a 11 days safari from Kenya to Tanzania on a affordable price, actually we’ve compared with other agencies, they very competitive price, and surprisingly it turned out a very good experience. Jemimah helped us customising our trip as we requested a specific hotel and made some changes to the itineraries accordingly. She also helped us dealing with it within minutes when there was unexpected issues with our Tanzania accommodation, which ensured a smooth journey. We are grateful for the quick response and will definitely recommend to our friends in the future!

Best safari experience with Serengeti Smile!
Had the most amazing Safari experience with Serengeti Smile! John (our guide) was very knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make sure we saw all the animals we wanted to see and always positioned the vehicle perfectly for the best viewing.
We mentioned wanting to see baby lion cubs, and he managed to find us not just one or two, but 14! Later, when we asked if we could see elephants up close, he immediately started searching and soon drove us right to the spot where an elephant crossed the road just behind us — it was magical.
We are very amazed at how well he knows the huge Serengeti roads and gets us to our camps and lodges safely and comfortably.
Really appreciate and want to thank Jeremiah (office rep) as well for putting together this amazing itinerary and suggestions of lodges to fit our budget. He was very responsive to all our questions and messages from the start!
Highly recommend Serengeti Smile to anyone wanting a truly memorable safari experience!

An Unforgettable Safari
We did the 4D/3N safari in the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru with our guide, Samuel Chege. An absolute 10 as a person, guide, and driver. He was very friendly and attentive, and gave us information about the animals we saw. He made sure we were comfortable and well taken care of at all times. We really appreciate the sense of safety he gave us.
As for the organization, the third day of the tour was the weakest. You spend most of the day on the road heading to Lake Nakuru. However, in the morning we were able to visit a Maasai village ($20 per person). Also, due to rain and muddy roads, we couldn’t make the optional stop at Lake Naivasha. When we arrived in Nakuru, the hotel we were supposed to stay in was full, so we had to be relocated to another hotel of a lower category.
All in all, the experience was unforgettable, and we would definitely do it again because of its great value for money.

Choose Liyu if you want an unforgettable, safe, and fantastic guide to Ethiopia.
Liyu Ethiopia Tours made our visit to Ethiopia unforgettable! Yhun, the manager, was in constant communication with us before and during our trip, keeping us up-to-date with local conditions. We booked a trip to Wenchi Crater and 2 days in Gondar through Liyu.
The trip to Wenchi was incredible. Early in the morning, our guide Oli, and the driver, picked us up from our hotel in Addis Ababa, and drove us the 3.5ish hours to Wenchi. We spent the morning hiking through the crater lake, taking in the natural beauty—this is something Yhun made sure to include in our itinerary after we expressed our desire to focus more on Ethiopia's natural wonders. Oli was a fantastic guide: he was very knowledgeable, kind, and quite funny. We enjoyed a traditional coffee ceremony, boat ride, and lunch before returning to Addis Ababa.
We had a similarly fantastic experience in Gondar. Yhun arranged our transport from our hotel to the airport, and arranged for transport in Gondar (flight costs were on our own). Yhun is very well connected with guides across Ethiopia. In Gondar, he introduced us to Alex and Grum. Alex led us on an excellent hike through Kosoye viewpoint, and Grum was a wonderful guide to Gondar. Yhun also arranged for all our airport transfers, which was certainly a welcome benefit.
In short, Yhun made sure that all our needs and wishes were tended to and that we felt at home (and safe!) while visiting Ethiopia. The prices were fair and reasonable, and we would not hesitate to choose Liyu Ethiopia Tours for our future visits.
