First three hours was amazing experience of safari
For the first time doing safari my first three hours was full of excitement and great experience to see even lions from two feet away distance, tour guides also cool and provide a lot of information., for me only the part after lunch time wasn’t anymore that of excitement since was less to see and was little bit already tired and bored .
Overall still 9/10 for the first safari trip!

Best tour operator, High quality and professional services
Our dreams was to choose the locally owned company, We are happy to say that Mamnana Adventures was the best and perfect option. Our Safari organizer Happy, tour guide John, accommodations (Sero tented camp, Njiro Legacy, Heritage camp and Farm of Dreams Lodge), food and transportations were top notch.
The tour was awesome from beginning to end, best experience I’ve had in my life. Seeing so many different animals in Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Tarangire and Lake Manyara.

Very organized and extremely well run while paying attention to all details
My wife and I went on a 10 day safari to Kenya and Tanzania. We initially chose them because of their flexibility on dates. You can literally pick any date that you want to start on and go from there. From picking us up at the airport in Nairobi to dropping us off at our desired hotel in Nairobi and then taking off 2 days later (at our request) on safari for 10 days––everything went without a hitch. All details were taken care of. The places we stayed and the food we ate was all spectacular. We had separate guides/drivers in Kenya and Tanzania and their knowledge was just fabulous. We saw everything that we had hoped to see and more. And then to top it off we were the only couple for our 2 drivers so we had the vehicle to ourselves the entire time.
I cannot sing enough praises for this outfit. A delightful truly special vacation.

Family Safari
Thomas Kombo was our tour guide and he made our safari experience even better than we could have imagined. His knowledge of the park, nature and all the animals is immense! He made the tour very enjoyable, informative and perfectly organized. Thank you Thomas Kombo!
The scenery of the Masai Mara was simply amazing; especially the numerous roaming animals, grasslands, mountains, trees and the nature in every scene and its background. Sanzori Adventures provided us with excellent service. There were no hidden extra fees throughout the entire trip.

Good organization and friendly contact
We had the pleasure of experiencing an overnight stay with two safaris through Endless Summer at the Gwahumbe Game Reserve in early January. It was simply perfect. From the communication with Rhys to the execution and return transport to the ship, everything went flawlessly. We highly recommend Endless Summer.

Best driver and important information
We had a 3 day safari trip to Masai Mara with Khalifa as the driver and Derick as an extra hand. The two of them were very polite, helpfull and did their best to give us a great trip, which they very much did. They went above and beyond in giving us the best experience.
When comparing our experience with the other vehicles we saw on the safari it was pretty clear that Khalifa and Derick were excellent at finding the animals, getting the best angles and definitely getting the closest. Being within 3 meters of a lion, cheetah, giant elephant and more is quite the experience. Khalifas experience in predicting the animals meant that we often got the best spot. And viewing the sun go down while watching a herd of elephants is a thing i will never forget.
Important knowledge of going on safari is, that you should make sure that your vehicle is a proper offroad vehicle, like a Toyota Landcruiser and not a minibus. But also note that some of the vehicles are in disrepair and therefore do not have 4 wheel drive. The vehicle you get determines if you can go off the path and get closer to the animals or have to stay on the path and use your binoculars. (Hint you definitely want to zoom through the plains and get closer to the animals)
However the most important thing to note is, that when it has rained the lesser vehicles get stuck. We had to help out a few times with people who were stuck, which was much preferred to being stuck ourselves. Unfortunately people from other safari agencies did get stuck and had to spend the night in their vehicle inside the park. As you can guess dining and toilet facilities are not the best when there are hungry Lions around.
Fortunately the vehicle from Axis Safari was well maintained and fully functional and Khalifa was a world class offroad driver. The vehicles used for Safari are not equipped with toolkits, winches or other typical rescue gear, and the help can be a long ways away so choosing a good vehicle and driver like with Axis is a very good choice.
I would definitely recommend going with Axis and if possible asking for Khalifa.
