Incredible Tour Guide for Tanzania Wildlife Experience.
We had the privilege of spending 9 days with Shafino on safari and had some of the best memories of our life because of him. His experience is unmatched in the Serengeti, he has been doing this for 26 years and it shows. He is incredibly knowledgeable and knows Tanzania extremely well. He has the eyes of a hawk and was able to spot animals from miles away. He is a great driver and was always making sure that we were taken care of. More than his knowledge and skills from years of experience, his heart for people and Tanzania set him apart from the rest. He is a good man who cares about family and cares about all people. He knows so many guides and people of Tanzania and you will get the privilege to see the impact he has made in people's lives. We consider him a friend and would recommend him to anyone coming to experience the beauty and special culture Tanzania has to offer.

Spirit of Kenya - Captured in All Its Glory
On behalf of Andrew and myself, I just want to say a huge 'thank you' to Spirit of Kenya and especially to Vanessa through whom I arranged the trip and our wonderful guide Thomas.
Throughout the booking process Vanessa's prompt and detailed responses to my questions gave me the confidence to book our safari through Spirit of Kenya and I am so glad I did.
We were looked after so well it exceeded my experience on any other safari. From the point at which we were met at the airport and transferred to the waiting car with Spirit of Kenya staff with us 100% of the time to being transferred back to the airport and taken up to the departure lounge.
The safari itself was wonderful and Thomas looked after us superbly. He is an excellent driver, kind, fun, and very knowledgeable. We felt completely safe travelling through Kenya with Thomas and in the parks he did his utmost to show Kenya to us in all its glory. Cheetah, leopard, lion (so many lion), elephants in good numbers in both the Mara but particularly Samburu, white rhino (Nakuru), the birth of a thompsons gazelle, hippo, crocodile, gerenuk, oryx ...
We both felt so safe with Thomas, he provided us with the reassurance we needed, his stature no doubt helps but he is so good with people, whilst we did not have any issues during the trip we felt confident that whatever arose that Thomas would be able to deal with it.
The accommodation throughout the trip was 'top notch' and the staff at each so welcoming and the food was wonderful.
Needless to say I am already thinking about returning. It will be much easier to plan next time as I know who I'll be booking with 'Spirit of Kenya'.

Dickson. He is not only incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and the parks
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Safari Experience in Kenya!
Our safari in Kenya was nothing short of extraordinary! From start to finish, every detail exceeded our expectations — the breathtaking wildlife sightings, the delicious food, the comfortable and well-kept accommodations — everything was truly perfect.
But what made this trip absolutely unforgettable was our guide, Dickson. He is not only incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and the parks, but also one of the kindest and most attentive people we’ve ever met. Dickson was always looking out for our safety and comfort, making sure we had the best experience possible.
Thanks to his keen eye and expertise, we were able to spot so many animals up close — lions, elephants, giraffes, you name it! He made each game drive exciting and educational, and his warm personality made us feel at home the entire time.
We feel so lucky to have had Dickson as our guide — he truly went above and beyond in every way. If you’re planning a safari in Kenya, we can’t recommend this experience enough, especially with Dickson leading the way.
This was the trip of a lifetime, and we’ll cherish these memories forever.

The tour operator was welcoming, always ready to satisfy our needs, very kind
Our 5-day safari was amazing! Our guide, Jackton, was wonderful, kind, and friendly. He explained the history of the parks and the tribes that lived there. We will recommend Green Places Adventures to our friends and family because it was a wonderful trip.

Wonderful experience very well organised
We spent a wonderful safari, the organisator Raymond was always here for us, organising the transport from the airport and after the safari. During the safari we saw many animals, ate very well and enjoyed the different parks. The driver Frank was very professional and answering our needs. We met a lot of nice people and enjoyed our holidays

Very kind attentive and always there for questions.
The safari (3 days in Amboseli) was very well organized. Everything went smoothly and just as expected. We were picked up at noon directly from the hotel and drove to Amboseli National Park. The accommodation was simple but absolutely worth the money. The safari itself was beautiful, and we saw many animals.
Water was always available. We were seven people in a van and had a great group.
Thank you very much for this wonderful experience – I’d be happy to do it again!

Perfectly matched with our wishes
After just two calls with the travel agency, we have got a trip which fit perfectly to what we wanted. Considering activities, quality approaches and costs.
We have got perfect notes, considering what we should book upfront and what we book on site.
We have got a great app where we could see from where to go what the activities are, and which services are included.
Before we started the trip, we’ve got calls and emails with information about the country and what we have to do before like the visa.
All the necessary information we’ve got automatically.
We are very satisfied. It was our dream vacation.

Excellent organisation and very professional guide
We visited Kenia as a family (3 adults) and stayed for a 10 days safari. The organisation of the trip was easy, quick reactions from the office team, and then we were on the road with our guide Sammy. What a joy to have an experienced guide like him, very polite, always in a good mood, with a quick laugh and a lot of knowledge. We really enjoyed the trip and saw beautiful landscapes, small villages, big city life, and of course wildlife..
Great value for money!

This was truly one of the best experiences of my life, visiting such a breathtaking safari. Thank you!!
