Quality Safari
We went on a 7 day say safari and followed it with 4 days on Zanzibar. Communication with Erick for planning was easy and quick. Our safari guide John was well informed in the area and wildlife, and was very helpful. He made us feel at home easily. We saw the big 5 and a good chunk of the small 5 as well as other notable wildlife pretty quickly and consistently. Wildebeest Footsteps Adventures (WFA) arranged our hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti (highly recommend), stops to visit local tribes and learn a little of their way of life.
After that we were off to Zanzibar with our new guide (also John oddly enough, who was very helpful) for the Stone Town, Prison Island & spice farm tours, and some beach relaxation. The lodges, camps, & hotels we stayed at along the way were clean and had good food and were thoughtful about mosquito treatment. Some of the beds were more firm than I’d like, but that comes with international travel in my experience, and I can’t blame WFA for that. WFA made the journey seamless, entertaining, and safe and we thank them as these will be lasting memories for our family.

Responsible and reliable, highly recommended, especially our guide Mike!
Our journey with Mike in Tanzania was fantastic! He is knowledgeable and humble, knowing his country and people very well. You can expect more than knowledge about animals from him. Mike has answers for all our questions from geography to Masai traditions, which made our long rides full of laughers and discussions. What’s most precious is that Mike is still very passionate about his work after being safari guide for 30 year! Thanks to his dedication and rich experience during the journey, we managed to see all BIG FIVE, including three cheetahs devouring a gazelle, several lions eating a zebra surrounded by many vultures. We really enjoyed our time in Tanzania. Gratitude should also be extended to Emman and Yang, magicians behind the scene who helped us realize this travel. They also managed to celebrate my husband’s birthday in the hotel we stayed. It was very unique and unforgettable. Camps and lodges recommended by KSG were all excellent. Highly recommended to anyone who wishes to visit Tanzania.

Best Safari Ever (especially if you are a birder)!
WOW! An amazing experience. It was my first safari but definitely not my last. Not only did we see all the usual things you would expect to see - the Big Five plus cheetahs, hippos, giraffes etc. but we also saw almost 150 species of birds in five days. Joseph not only identified instantly them but also had an encyclopedic knowledge of range, habits, habitats, etc. The accommodations were very nice and the food was great. If you are a birder - this is a must have experience. I will be returning to Kenya and going on another safari with Joseph.

Luxury and support at 19000 feet!
Despite pouring rain in the wet season I had a lovely experience with Almighty Kilimanjaro. The entire crew made the experience comfortable, and even luxurious. I was very impressed by the fact that even 6 days into the trip I was eating fresh fruit and comfortably sleeping in a giant tent. Swaleh, my guide, is personable, enthusiastic, and encouraging. My only issue was the rain- it meant I was the only person in my group, which definitely was a bummer, but on the plus side we had most camps to ourselves.

The best guide we've ever had, we were incredibly lucky.
We booked everything through a travel agency, and they couldn't have chosen better. Our guide Charles Godson
and driver Kindu were the best. We are so grateful. We saw all kinds of animals, including the Big Five of Africa. They were the best. Kindu was incredibly careful driving and always thinking of us. Charles was attentive to everything and explained everything we saw in Spanish. We understood him perfectly, and he gave us fascinating information.

An outstanding trip from start to finish.
Before our trip, Peter, who was responsible for planning and coordinating the itinerary, told us that this journey would be exceptional—and it truly was.
Peter is always quick to respond, patient, attentive, and highly professional. When our flight schedule changed during the trip, he promptly adjusted our itinerary and successfully secured reservations at all the hotels we had hoped to stay in.
Our guide, Songe, is the best. He is experienced, reliable, and knowledgeable. Every day, he arrived well in advance of our departure time and always kept the vehicle clean and comfortable. His excellent driving skills, deep understanding of the roads, and extensive knowledge of animal behavior made our safari experience truly memorable. Thanks to Songe, we were able to see large prides of lions, as well as rhinos, elephants, giraffes, and zebras passing right before our eyes. He also guided us to witness large predators feeding on their prey. Remarkable.
Overall, this was an outstanding trip from start to finish. We had an amazing experience and would highly recommend this team to anyone planning a safari adventure.

Fantastic from start to finish!
We found it hard to decide which company to trust when organising our holiday but decided in the end to go with Rafiki tembo as they gave us honest advice on what tour would be best for us. It was amazing, Geoffrey and Jonathan made the whole experience unforgettable, everything was explained with so much knowledge and answered every question we had. I’d recommend Rafiki tembo and Geoffrey and Jonathan to anybody visiting Tanzania!

Kind, available and professional
We spent the weekend with Roby, our designated driver and guide from Jocky Tours and Safaris. The game drive and the safari were amazing. We had the chance to see elephants, cheetahs, lions, giraffes, crocodiles and pretty much everything possible in Kenya. I would recommend 100%
