Fantastic tours, easy booking and great experience
From the outset Munashe and the team at Fuhara (Matthew, 'Hippo', Tomic, Delight and everyone else we met) were amazing. Great communication and we added on transfers, a Vic falls tour and sunset cruise all at the budget prices (better than any other provider we enquired with). The tours were brilliant, information filled and safe. We did the budget camping option for Chobe 2d/1n and the camp tent was great for us under the stars with a camp fire. Also a unique tour as you get two game drives and two boat trips, which most other companies do or offer. They were able to cater for vegetarian diet easily too.
Overall excellent experience and thank you to the whole team. 5/5, would easily recommend to anyone looking to travel to Zimbabwe/Zambia/Botswana.

A Dream Safari Brought to Life by Serengeti Smile
Our family just returned from a 10-day safari with Serengeti Smile, and the entire experience exceeded all expectations. This was our first safari, and it was truly unforgettable from start to finish.
Baraka took excellent care of us during the planning process. He was responsive, thoughtful, and put together an itinerary that matched our preferences and budget perfectly. We stayed in nice accommodations throughout—comfortable, well-located, and offering great service and views. Everything was well-organized, and we never had to worry about logistics.
Our guide, Champion, was outstanding. He made each game drive engaging and informative, and his knowledge of the wildlife and parks was incredibly impressive. We asked plenty of questions, and he answered each one with patience and insight. His ability to read the environment and position us for the best sightings led to some truly unforgettable moments—lions, elephants, a leopard, and so much more.
Champion also did a fantastic job tailoring each day to our pace and interests, which made the experience feel relaxed and personal from beginning to end.
If you're planning a safari, we wholeheartedly recommend Serengeti Smile. Baraka and Champion created a once-in-a-lifetime journey for our family, and we’ll be talking about it for years to come.

Expertly Planned, Incredibly Guided a journey to Remember
As someone who had dreamed of visiting Africa for years, this 10-day safari with Serengeti Smile was everything I hoped for and more. Traveling as a family, we wanted something that was both adventurous and well organized and Serengeti Smile delivered on every level.
From the start, Baraka made the planning process incredibly smooth. He was attentive, flexible, and genuinely cared about making the experience perfect for us. Every detail was handled with care from our comfortable, well-situated accommodations to the seamless logistics between parks and lodges. I especially appreciated how relaxed and hassle-free everything felt.
But what truly made this trip stand out was our guide, Champion. His passion for wildlife and deep knowledge of the parks turned every game drive into something special. We saw an incredible variety of animals including some up-close moments I’ll never forget. He always managed to find the perfect spots for viewing and was more than happy to adjust the day based on what we were most excited about.
Champion also brought a great energy to the trip professional, easygoing, and fun to be around. By the end, it felt like traveling with a good friend who just happened to be an expert in everything around us.
If you're considering a safari, don’t hesitate book with Serengeti Smile. It’s more than just a vacation; it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I’m incredibly grateful to have shared it with my family through such an exceptional company.

A fantastic journey in Tanzania with the best guide Zack
Jonyo as our consultant has made a perfect individual itinerary for us. It took almost two weeks to discuss the plan and the accommodations. He has totally provided us 8 versions and finally closed everything. It is a big challenge for a family with teenagers like us so Jonyo combined one-day Kilimanjaro hiking and long term safari gaming. For a 10 days Tanzania safari trip I think it couldn’t be even better.
Also million thanks to our great guide Zack, we had unforgettable experiences in Tanzania. We got the Big five and the cross with him. At the last day we’ve even seen the lions eating their breakfast. Lucky for us, we saw the cross twice in different places and different time in one day. That’s all because of the rich knowledge and experience of Zack. He was also very nice to cooperate with us to change the itinerary during the trip, to make sure we had chance to visit Olduvai Gorge Museum. That’s also a quite interesting place worth to go.
Will recommend to my friends. Next time when I back I hope I can travel with Zack again.

I have chosen Morningstar Safari because of interesting offer covering all Key national Parks both in Kenia and Tanzania. And I am not dissapointed at all. With the Assistance of our guides we were succesful in Game drive having the Opportunity to see the Big Five, wildbeast migration and a lot of birds. The organisation and constant care provided by Alice the manager was very professional

Caring operator that is fully willing to customize your adventure
My mother and I had an amazing 6-day trip with Nazareth from Kima Safaris. He was very patient with us for wanting to stop for every bird and animal and was also constantly helping us identify which ones we saw! Thank you again Nazareth!
There was full opportunity to customize our trip according to our wishes, so also a big thank you to Steven for the initial contact on shaping the plans.

Very affordable and cost-effective travel
At the beginning of my search for the grounding agency, Benson gave me the fastest reply and detailed description, and he patiently answered all my questions.My guide and driver, okindo, has a very rich experience in finding animals. We see the African Big Five.I signed up for a 7-day, 6-night economy shared tour, which was cheap. However, the accommodation environment in Masai Mara is not very good. If possible, adding money to upgrade the accommodation would have a better experience. The food was a bit monotonous, but it was a good experience for the price.

Very nice
We would like to thank Ephie for her patience and support in helping us organize our safari trip. Everything was smooth from the very beginning thanks to her.
We also highly recommend Denis, who was an outstanding guide. Thanks to his deep knowledge of the parks, his kindness, and his enthusiasm, we were able to see animals we would never have spotted on our own.
We will definitely recommend this agency to anyone wishing to experience an unforgettable journey in Kenya.

Unforgettable! Thanks Axis and thanks Peter Kapino
Our experience with Axis Africa Safari was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, seamless, and tailored to make our safari truly special.
A very special mention goes to our guide, Peter Kapino, who made the entire journey extraordinary. Peter is not only incredibly knowledgeable about wildlife, but he also has a genuine passion for sharing it with others. Thanks to him, we spotted animals we never imagined we’d see so closely, and he always explained everything with such patience and enthusiasm. His sharp eye, warm personality, and deep respect for nature made every game drive an adventure full of excitement and discovery.
Beyond his professionalism, Peter’s kindness and sense of humor made us feel at home throughout the trip. He went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment.
We cannot recommend Axis Africa Safari enough, and if you are lucky enough to have Peter Kapino as your guide, you are guaranteed a safari experience of a lifetime!
