A great first time safari in East Africa - thank you Wecam
I really feel it is almost a moral duty now to write an honest review, because such reviews helped us a lot to plan our safari in the first place.
We (2 people) went on a safari of Kenya and Tanzania in August 2016. It was a 12-day itinerary. Merci was very patient with our queries etc and throughout the arrangements. The safari overall was great, smooth, well co-ordinated and we thank wecam for the same. We loved our guides Gibson (very smart, knows where to get what and showed us the best in Masai Mara), Peter (exceptional hospitality towards visitors) in Kenya. Our guide Humphrey in Tanzania was also good but needs to be a bit more organised and careful (he got us a ticket from traffic police for speed and once forgot his wallet etc in the Twiga campsite, luckily we found it). However, Humphrey also showed us some exceptional sights in Tanzania parks and had deep knowledge of wildlife.
Also a couple of things for future travellers' benefit - 1) we tried to customize our itinerary dropping Nakuru and fitting in Naivasha etc. creating some route which none of the operators had. It creates a mess, because their logistics people will eventually follow the one they have been following. So, best to stick to their route and may be work with the number of days etc. 2) Before the start of safari, check and confirm with them/Merci all the places of accommodation so that there are no last minute confusions or inadvertant changes.
Our stay arrangements were very good, wecam provided a good blend of stay options.
Overall, it was a most memorable experience and we sincerely thank wecam team.

Amazing East Africa - Kenya, Tanzania and Rwanda- life changing experience!
From the arrival in Nairobi our expectation of this holiday was very high. Having been on a bucket list for some time much planning had gone into the 16 days we had to see and do quite a long list of requests.
Cuan McLaren was an absolute expert in providing of suggestions on how to see all we wanted in a relatively short amount of time and maximise our experiences. Small flights rather than road trips was one example. The trip was incredible and all our guides charming experts on all things Africa. In particular the Lemala Mara mobile tented campsite a highlight for location and wonderful staff. Already planning the next safari, Botswana here we come!

Amazing tour
It was very easy to book and good that you could pay with credit card. The contact before, under and after the tour was great. Ben drow us safely through the hole trip. One negative thing was that it was no wifi at the cottage and not good at the restaurants.

Two days successful Safari in Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro with Tulivu Adventure in November 2016.
Our travelling companions had a good communication on e-mail for booking and planning of the route. Good service for transport from Kilimanjaro Airport to the hotell, and under the safari tour, and forwarding to the ultimate place. On the safari tour we had chance to look and see the most active animals. A very kind reception.

Exelent service and care
Very good 7-days safari. All happened what was promised. Vickson took care of us whole the time. Car and driver Efraim was good. We saw all big cats 5 m distance and over twenty different wild animals. Weather in december was good. Masai Mara is very clean and there is lot of animals.

Good agency at a good price
Part of safari in Mara completely fulfilled my expectations, but the part at Nakuru didn't since there were no flamingos and actually went there cause the lake was advertised as 'pink lake'.
Communication with agency was great, patient trip advisors with lot of information.
Driver patient and informative.

A once in a lifetime Safari experience.
I had the pleasure of doing my Safari of Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Chala courtesy of Rajatours and I must admit you guys are amazing and was fascinated by how the whole team knew what it was doing. I enjoyed how professional the staff approached all our needs and how friendly Tanzania was. Thanks for the amazing experience Rajatours and I hope you keep doing what you are doing.

Great Experience!
My fiancee and I booked a three day lodge safari tour including a day at the Blyde river canyon.
We were really looking forward to an experience of a lifetime and we weren't disappointed!
The whole tour was well organised from the pick up at our hotel, to the daily long drives deep into the savannah up to the drop off back to our hotel again. All the drivers and guides were extremely friendly and provided plenty of information throughout our tour. The river canyon trip, while short, was worth the visit and provided stunning views of the river down below!
We didn't manage to see lions and so we are planning to use viva safaris again to complete our big five game!
