Once in a lifetime experience- ASANTE!
I have just come back from a two week Safari/Zanzibar trip with Tapestry, and there are no words to describe how grateful I am to have chosen them to make our dream trip become a reality.
First, the whole planning/organizing process of the pre-trip was five star service. Matt, Albert, and Hilda all helped me and my mom figure everything out. They gave great advice, led us in the right direction without every pressuring us, and helped to tailor-make our itinerary so that it was perfect for us. They were also able to help us with logistical things like visas, medical appts, etc.
From the moment we landed in Kenya, everything was taken care of. We did not have to worry about a thing from the time we were in their hands, and for the entire two week trip, they stayed in touch making sure that we were happy and that everything was going according to plan.
Highlights:
-All lodging was amazing, the places they chose for us were beautiful and we felt lucky to stay at every one of them.
-They helped make our dream of a hot air balloon become a reality, organizing everything for us ahead of time. If you are able to do this, DO IT! It was breathtaking.
-From start to finish, their professionalism and organization made it possible to completely disconnect and enjoy the beautiful savannah. Not only were they able to answer any and ALL questions with a great respond time, but they even helped us with logistical issues getting refunds for a flight home that they were not responsible for.
Now for the real highlight, and the real reason you MUST choose them for your trip- the guides.
-Kevin: from the moment he picked us up at the airport, Kevin was so kind, knowledgable, and helpful. Thanks to him we got to take advantage of our few hours before Safari, visiting the giraffe center, a bead center (amazing!), and a quick tour of Nairobi.
-Kim: I can't imagine what our safari would have been like if it weren't for Kim. He was with us for our four days in Kenya, and made everything easy, interesting, and so much fun. He was so friendly and extremley intelligent, thanks to his conversation during the long rides, we learned a ton! He was happy to answer all questions, of which we had money, about animals and other curiosities we had about Kenya in general. In terms of the game drives, he had all the tricks! He is a skilled "finder", great driver, and has wonderful energy! From the first minute it became clear that he wanted nothing more than to make sure we saw the Big 5 (which we did!), it seemed like he would be more dissapointed than us if we didn't.
-Joseph: For the remainder of our safari, we were in Tanzania with Joseph. The highlight of our trip was the Serengetti (there's no way to prepare yourself for how amazing it is), and a lot of that is thanks to Joseph. Like Kim, he made it his mission for us to see the Big 5 (again!), and we did! He knew the park like the back of his hand, and knew EXACTLY where to go (it didn't seem like all guides knew because we were often by ourselves). He found us out of this world experiences, driving among lions on their rocks (total lion king moment!), stopping in the middle of hundreds and hundreds of zebra, and a perfect sighting up-close and personal of tons of other animals. He has a great attitude and made sure we were having fun the whole time.
Guys- we are so grateful to you! Hopefully we will cross paths in the future. ASANTE SANA!!
I am so grateful that for this once in a lifetime trip, we chose Tapestry Africa. No notes! If we were to ever repeat this vacation, we would go with them without a doubt.

Absolutely amazing!
We did a 5-day private safari with Meru Slopes and it was absolutely amazing! Our guide Mohamed (Moody) was very friendly, funny, a great driver, and knew where to find all the animals we were hoping to see. We saw all of the big 5 and many, many more!
The accommodations we stayed at were all stunning, clean and comfortable, and the food provided during the tour was delicious. The team also went out of their way to organize a birthday surprise for my boyfriend, making our experience even more special.
Big thanks to Leonard for organizing everything so well, and of course to our guide Moody for making this such a memorable trip - highly recommend booking your safari trip with Meru Slopes!

The support and guidance was excellent!
Our safari tour with WeTour was even more enjoyable than we expected.
Maureen was very kind and accommodating in arranging the tour. She responded quickly and there were no worries.
Paxton our guide was also fantastic. He had a wealth of knowledge about the animals and explained them clearly.
I also really enjoyed the birthday surprise during the tour.
Thank you Maureen and Paxton for your wonderful support.
I highly recommend WeTour for arranging a great tour in Kenya.

absolutely reliable and professional
First we have been a little bit confused about the high number of safari tour operators. After comparing five operators our choice was finally Kibo Mawenzi safaris. It was absolutely not the cheapest choice, but our goal was also to have an unforgettable week. If you are not only interested in the big animals and if you love birds than ask for driver/Tourguide Patrick Kwaka. He has known even the smallest inconspicuous bird in the bush und knew the unremarkablest differences between a species of bird! With his relaxed manner he seems also able to adapting to different kind of people. We had a really enjoyable week together!

Pamela from Magical Retreats and Adventures Safaris is personable, professional, comprehensive.
Safari tour was just enough time, 6 days/5 nights, inclusive of air travel to Masai Mara from Nairobi and return. Package included tour of Nairobi National Park and Sheldrick Wildlife Trust/elephant orphanage. Lodging and food at Pride Inn, Mara, were excellent. Tour guide was informative, personable, and very reliable. He led us to see most creatures in the savannah. Evening with Masai dancers was a highlight.

A good safari with good professionales
A 4-day adventure in the heart of Tarangine, the Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater. Innocent did an excellent job of communication and providing information. Everything went as planned. Our guide, Jonas, was also very good, and we even got to see the Big Five. The only negative aspect, for me, was the one-night stay in a small tent, and the shared facilities, like the bathrooms and dining room, were somewhat outdated. I would definitely repeat the trip, but with different accommodations.

Epic Murchison falls Adventure with Bantu Africa Travel
Wanted to say a HUGE thank you for the most epic trip to Murchison Falls! Me and my friends from Somalia, Ethiopia, Djibouti, Kenya, and South Sudan had the time of our lives 🔥, and everybody's still raving about the experience they had with you guys. The 3-day trip was absolutely hilarious 😄.
Rionah, your professionalism was on point. You handled our bookings on time, guided us through, and made sure we were good throughout. The admission fee was super affordable, and whatever we paid was totally worth it. It was the best experience of 2025! 😊 We saw elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, antelopes. The game drive was lit. The hike to the falls was a major highlight. Everything went smoothly, the atmosphere was chill, and the crowd was just right.
Would totally recommend Bantu Africa Travel for any Uganda adventures 🙏.
Cheers 🥂 to Bantu Africa Travel!
