Incredible Wildlife Journey
Our 5-day safari in Kenya was an absolutely unforgettable and overwhelming experience. From the moment our journey began, our guide and safari driver, Kush, made us feel comfortable, safe, and excited for the adventure ahead. His friendliness and professionalism truly stood out throughout the trip.
Kush is an extremely experienced safari guide who knows the parks and wildlife incredibly well. Thanks to his deep knowledge and sharp instincts, we were able to spot the Big Five animals during our safari, which was a dream come true for us. He seemed to know exactly where to go and patiently guided us to the best locations for wildlife sightings. Every game drive was exciting because Kush always ensured we had the best possible views and enough time to enjoy the moment.
We visited Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, and Hell’s Gate National Park, and each destination was beautifully planned. Kush also shared interesting information about the animals, nature, and the parks, which made the experience even more meaningful.
This trip was truly special because of Kush’s dedication, passion, and expertise. I would highly recommend him to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. He made our safari memorable, enjoyable, and something we will cherish forever.
Accommodating, dependable, knowledgeable
Paul and leopard tours were amazing! They adjusted our tour to just what we wanted to do. Paul was very knowledgeable about not only things in the Safari but our questions about Kenya in general.

Communication was excellent and the tour operator was very responsible.
The tour operator, Aron was extremely helpful and communicative during the travel arrangements and booking. He was very flexible and provided excellent suggestions. The tour was very well run, and the guide/driver, Martin was very knowledgeable and responsible. Everything was on time and very well organized. As a single woman travelling I was never worried or concerned. And the accommodations were spectacular! Overall, an amazing 5 days that will last with me forever!

Everything was smooth and well organized, which allowed us to fully enjoy the beauty of Uganda.
Thank you Laba Africa

Very accommodating and understanding
I had to bring my safari tour earlier and Benjamini from African Platinum Safari was very helpful and understanding. I managed to go to the safari earlier so I could head back home sooner for a family emergency.
I had Barnabas as my tour guide on this private tour, he was very entertaining and he was able to give me enough time to take photos. I would recommend this tour operator to future guests.

Absolutely Fabulous and Faultless 4-Day Safari!
This was our first safari, so we contacted a few different companies for quotes before making our decision. We had read the very positive reviews about Mountain Warriors and Rehema replied to our initial inquiry promptly with a very comprehensive and comparable quote. She quickly answered all of our many questions before we finally decided to book our safari with Mountain Warriors. We opted for a 4-day mid-range private safari with a photographer, visiting Tarangire, Ngorongoro and the Serengeti. We felt completely safe and comfortable throughout and the whole experience far exceeded our expectations! Yona was a perfect guide and Herman took some fabulous photos. Yona is very knowledgeable and great fun too; we learnt such a lot from him. He expertly navigated us to all the perfect spots to observe the animals and we had no problem at all ticking off the "Big 5" and the "Ugly 5"! Yona is an accomplished driver with amazing eyesight too! We were really impressed with his ability to spot all the wildlife as we were driving along the tracks. The accommodation was beautiful and far better than we were expecting and all the picnic lunches and meals at the lodges were delicious. We would highly recommend anyone to book a safari with Mountain Warriors.

Great value for money and fast replies
We did the 13-day Kenya and Tanzania budget safari, and it did not disappoint! The itinerary is perfect for anyone wanting to explore all the major parks in both countries and experience as much as possible in two weeks. We saw countless animals and truly enjoyed each day of the tour!
The food was delicious and exceeded our expectations, especially considering this was a budget tour. Most of the accommodations were also great, with Buraha Zenoni Hotel and Charity Hotel standing out in particular. We did encounter some vehicle issues on the first day of the tour, but they were resolved on the same day, and that was the only day affected. David’s customer service was top-notch. He was always available before and during the safari, frequently checking in to ensure everything was going smoothly.
One important thing to note is that budget tours are typically group-joining safaris, meaning multiple tour operators share vehicles and guides, with different clients from various operators coming together in one vehicle. As a result, you won’t always have the same group or driver for the entire trip. The schedule/activities can sometimes be different from the description in the quote, for us the order of some days in Tanzania was changed so that the time in the parks did not always fit the description. However, some of this allows the budget pricing, which offers the best value for money I found. I compared several tour operators before choosing Pedaso Safaris, and David’s combination of 24/7 availability and affordable prices really stood out. I also appreciated that David organized private airport and border transfers at no extra cost!
Initially, I was a bit hesitant about booking with a smaller local tour operator, but it was definitely the right decision. 100% recommend Pedaso Safaris!

Once in a lifetime
We were a family of 3 people: my 64 old dad, my sister and me, all with the same dream, to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. We experienced the best trip of our lives where our guides, Choda and Philemon made everything possible. All the team was amazing, at the end felt like family. We loved the whole experience: tasting Tanzanian food, learning suahili, laughing with porters and of course reaching Uhuru Peak. Do not hesitate to climb with this company if you want to have a unique experience.

Amazing safari experience for a great price, very reliable tour operator
My 13-day budget safari through Kenya and Tanzania with Pedaso Safaris was an incredible experience and I can definitely recommend booking through David and his company!
Both Kenya and Tanzania are beautiful countries and the tour itinerary is well-planned, covering many highlights.
David was very helpful and outstanding in terms of communication throughout the booking process and while on safari. Our group encountered some issues with the safari vehicle on the first day of the tour, which resulted in missing the afternoon game drive in Masai Mara that was scheduled for that day. While this was disappointing, David did everything in his power to resolve the situation and the next day, we had an extended full day game drive in Masai Mara.
Since this was a group-joining budget safari, meaning that you share a safari vehicle with other people who booked through different tour companies, David of course had limited influence and had to coordinate with the other operators. Still, he did an amazing job and successfully made sure that we got value for our money.
Booking a budget safari I expected very basic accommodation and food. However, almost all of the camps/lodges/hotels were super comfortable with good service and very tasty food and far exceeded my expectations!
The trip really was wonderful with so many breathtaking sightings and it was definitely more than I expected for this price.
