Unforgettable trip with Six & Seven Tours
My teenage daughter and I traveled with Six & Seven Tours as part of a group of 18 on a week long trip, and it was truly unforgettable! The trip took us on safari through Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti, and a Masai village. Our guides were professional, knowledgeable, flexible, and fun— so many laughs and good times! All the guides had such a positive attitude and were enthusiastic which really enriched the experience! We learned interesting things about the animals, cultures, and even some Kiswahili. Accommodations were comfortable, food was excellent, and everything ran smoothly. If you are looking for fun, adventure and professionalism don't hesitate to book with Six & Seven tours.

Easily the best experience of my life
Apologies as this will be a long review, as I tend to write a lot. The 11 day safari with Shadows of Africa easily was the best trip of my life. First, let me start with Karen. Karen treats you like she's been your friend for a long time that just happens to be a safari specialist as she's extremely personable and clearly wants you to have the best possible experience. Despite being 10 hours ahead of me, she responded to any and all questions I have within minutes and I question if she ever takes a break. Throughout the whole process, she has been amazing...Karen, if you read this, I can't thank you enough. My other notable tour specialist was Frank that handled everything in Tanzania. Frank...Frank is on top of everything, literally calling me the second we got to the Tanzanian border, giving us suggestions on how to tip, what to do, and literally was on top of everything in Tanzania. Also, Frank is extremely genuine as well, following up daily regarding how things are going, what we love(d), and is again is just on top of everything.
Secondly, the guides. Our first guide was George who clearly has a ton of experience in Masa Mara and Kenya, and was on top of where to go and was on top of where all the animals were. George is very nice guy and on day 2 of safari I was elated on the experience he gave us and also can't say enough great things about that man. Our second guide, Charles Joseph, is younger, super enthusiastic, and is obviously very proud of his country and loves sharing whatever he can about Tanzania as well as anything related to plants and animals. Also, after traveling with him for a week I'm seriously impressed on how he can remember where everything is throughout such a massive area without a map, as I need GPS to go across town. We did have a transfer, Nickson, great young kid who is also enthusiastic about his town and country; hope his pig farming business goes well. Lastly, our last guide, Martin, friggin pro at everything Amboseli, suggesting good photo shots of Kilimanjaro, animals, and again, extremely knowledgeable about the region.
Lastly, a far as the accommodations and food, everything was top notch. We did do the 11 day tour and the nights in Masa Mara and Northern Sarengheti were in raised tents, but the staff more than made up for it as, how often in your life do you see lions, cheetahs, leopards, giraffes, elephants, etc...
My only one real suggestion is if you do plan on doing the 11 day tour, if you're looking for gifts, wait to go to the large shop in Arusha as they by far have the best prices for souvenirs, as the local shops outside Masa Mara are kind of a rip.
To finish, we loved our safari and if/when I come back to Africa, I will be sure to contact Shadows of Africa as they went above and beyond.

Once in our life time
Samir is one of the best, very knowledgeable, reliable and easygoing. From sunrise to sunset, he had provided us the best experience ever. We saw all the animals we had planned to see, and learned a lot from Samir. Also thanks Cindy and Thierry for the trip arrangement.

Thank you Suzzy
My family had a fantastic Kenya and Tanzania safari holiday organized by Epic Star Holidays.
Suzzy answered all our emails proptly and the price was good compared with other agencies. We also got an upgrade in Serengeti to Kumbukumbu Luxury Tented Camp. We were lucky to see the Wildebeest migration.
Thank you Suzzy and for sure we'll be back with friends.

Amazing… well worth it.
We booked a 2 day safari last minute so we were very apprehensive and didn’t quite know what to expect. However, Arnold completely took care of everything from flights and transfers to the luxury accommodation. He even took the time to check in on us at the hotel.
The safari itself was fantastic we had the most amazing experience from start to finish,we saw so many animals and our tour guide Silva was brilliant, he was such a nice guy, he made us feel safe and he was so knowledgeable about the animals and all areas of the parks.
I would highly recommend Major Treks and Safaris.
