great Safari trip for a very good price!
We had a Safari of 10 days in total, a combination of Kenyan parks (Aberdare, Masai Mara) and Tanzanian parks (Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, Tarangire, Arusha).
Esther was a great help in planning the trip, always very quick with her responses and she never got tired of our questions and demands. You gotta love her!
In the end we were offered a very good deal.
Our drivers/guides were true professionels. Always on time, they always knew the right places for spotting animals, you could ask them anything and got interesting informations in return. Plus, they were nice guys to spent time with.
So big thanks to Henry, Simon and Edgar!
Our cook Vitali provided us with great food. 3 meals a day, a variety of delicous stuff (we had a vegetarian in our group, she was also very satisfied)! Thank you Vitali!
I would defintely recommend to book a Safari with Kenya Budget Safaris.
We didn't have the money for an expensive Safari and got exactly what we wanted: an affordable Safari that gave us unforgattable expressions of the animals and the nature of Eastern Africa.
So thank you to the whole team (also Richard for the wine and the presents in the end).

Wonderful and unrepeatable experience; special and unforgettable !
I and my family spent a few days in Balule game reserve at Tremisana Lodge. The room was clean and neat and eating very good; The staff and guides are very friendly and prepared. They made a huge difference in our stay, in game viewing and in having a true contact with natural habitat. It was very exciting the bushwalk and the Kruger Park experience. Even if we stayed a few days there, we fell nostalgic for all of you e we never forget the people of Tremisana Lodge and this memorable holiday.

When Kenya becomes real
I went to Kenya with Deep Forest Safaris for two reasons: First and foremost to attend my cousins wedding, which took place smack-dab in the Masai Mara - but also to experience this amazing country, its population and the fantastic wildlife.
Samuel Charagu and Deep Forest Safaris are determined to give their guest a unique experience - and as a guide Sam knows every nook and cranny of his country . which means that you as a tourist (or guest, as he prefers to call you) gets to see things that the 'usual tourist' does not always get the opportunity to experience.
The safaris were 'close-up' encounters - but definitely with respect for the animals. The 'long-hauls' - driving from place to place never were boring because the landscape is amazing - and the guides are well informed, so they keep you up-dated along the way.
Last - but not least: The people are friendly, accomodating, curious and hospitable - so: All in all: If you choose to go to Kenya - choose Deep Forest Safaris. You won't regret - and I will go again.
By the way: She said 'Yes' - and now bears the name of Mrs Charagu
Enjoy your Kenyan Vacation with Deep Forest Safaris

Unforgettable safari experience
From the beginning Mr Otieno has been very helpful, friendly and professional. As it was our first trip to Kenya we had a quite a few questions and he has quickly answered all our doubts in a very professional way.
The tour was perfectly organized from the beginning until the end. Our private tour guide Peter was just amazing. He is a brilliant person, with a big heart, very professional, speaks perfect English, knows everything about his country and the Kenyan wildlife and nature. Every question we had asked, he could answer. Without Peter this trip wouldn't have been so special. Thanks Peter for being such an amazing guide!
If we ever go back we will definitely book Peter as our tour guide.
Visiting 4 different national parks was perfect. In every single part we saw some new animals. We even saw the BIG 5, and we were really lucky, as we saw much more wildlife. The nature in Kenya is amazing. Our favorite national park is definitely the Maasai Mara. It is good to do there at least 2 days. It is so big and there is so much to see.
A highlight of our trip was definitely the hot air balloon safari over Maasai Mara: unforgettable! The champagne breakfast after landing out in the nowhere was unbelievable. It's still giving me now goosebumps. So special and romantic (definitely worth spending that extra money for it).
All the resorts booked were beautiful and clean. The staff always friendly and helpful. We only have got great memories from this trip, which was our honeymoon, so it was very special for us from the begin.
We would highly recommend booking with Kenya Walking Survivors Safaris and you will be in great hands.
So definitely 5 star rating!
Thanks Ot & Peter for this unforgettable holiday & adventure...we will be back soon.

Best Private Safari
We just came back from a great seven days safari holiday with Epic Tours. We were travelling as a family with three children and everything was well arranged from our day of arrival to the day we left. The safari itself was an experience that we will never forget. Our driver Temba was real nice, well knowlegeable and child friendly. we really enjoyed our time in Tanzania and we are also happy that we could decide how we wanted our days to be. With this friendly team, time went so quickly that we wished we had booked a longer trip. I would highly recommend Ezekiel & The Epic Team if you are looking for a Private or family Safari.
Thank you for great experience!

The safari was organised very well. Maturaf was very responsive and approachable.
Overall, we had an amazing safari experience covering Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti over three nights and four days. The entire safari was organized via email - Maturaf was very quick to revert with costings and had the patience to arrive at an itinerary and cost that was acceptable to us.
We stayed at lovely lodges and luxury tented camps throughout. Our driver/guide was friendly, spoke excellent English and was extremely knowledgeable about wildlife. Picnic lunches were organized right through the trip and they were adequate, though a bit repetitive. Regional Tours also organized our internal flights from Dar es Salaam to Kilimanjaro Airport and return to Zanzibar - which was really convenient. Overall, we felt we got excellent value for money and Maturaf was transparent and prompt in all our communication/dealings with him. I highly recommend Regional Tours & Safaris for their tailor-made holiday experiences in Tanzania that suit every budget.

Spectacular!!!
I went on nine days trip with World Tour Staff named Steven the driver/guide and Soko4 cook. Steven is one of the most knowledge person in wildlife and vegetation, I ever come across. Trip was terrific and I learned a lot. Soko4 is a great and versatile cook. We had a awesome trip. I would recommend anyone to travel Tanzania via World Tours.

Great 3 Day Safari
I went on a great 3 - day Safari to Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Mayara that was personally organized on a very short notice by the owner of Cape Dog Safaris - Michael Massonda and operated by their local partners Africa VIP Travels in Arusha. Despite the short notice everything was organized excellently and I had a great experience.

Three weeks in Tanzania
Last month i went on a student trip along with my classmates. The trip was coordinated by Usambara Expeditions, and they did a fantastic job. Their busses always arrived on time, and always supplied us with good drivers. When we went on the safari, our guides were skilled and they were able to tell a lot about the different animals. Overall I (along with my classmates) are very satisfied and could definitely recommend them.
Thank you!
