The Perfect African Safari: Exceptional hospitality, Luxury Stays & an Incredible Guide, Daniel
From the moment we landed until the very end of our trip, everything was flawlessly organized by Serengeti Safari Agency. Our guide Daniel was the true star of the journey - knowledgeable, fun, patient, and incredibly passionate about wildlife. Every game drive was filled with fascinating stories, the jumbo songs and insights, making the entire experience even more special. He would cheer us up with the Jumbo son he sensed the energy was low. By the end of the trip, it became our anthem & we all still vibe on it after coming back. Thanks a ton Daniel
We were fortunate enough to see the Big Five, infact we saw a pride of 16 lions all together - something we had only dreamed about before this trip! Every day felt like an adventure straight out of Natgeo documentary. it was like witnessing NATGEO live!
All credit to Aishwarya - the accommodations arranged were simply spectacular. Staying in luxurious properties right inside the national parks elevated the entire experience, they did took our special request for vegetarian food options - sincerely grateful for the same!
Super impressed with Serengeti Wakanda's approach to sustainability. Food was provided in reusable casseroles that were collected, cleaned, and reused for the entire trip. Brought back memories of going on a picnic with family. Such a simple yet impactful initiative that significantly reduces waste while still offering excellent food and convenience.
If you're looking for a safari that perfectly combines adventure, luxury, exceptional hospitality, and sustainability, we would highly recommend Serengeti Wakanda Tours Safari Agency . Thank you for giving us memories that will last a lifetime. We would choose you all over again!

Very friendly Maasai guide with a keen eye for wildlife. Highly recommended.
We had a wonderful two weeks. We were able to indicate in advance what we wanted to see, after which we received a complete proposal for the trip. It started in Arusha and Tarangiri National Park, followed by the Serengeti, Lake Natron, and the Ngorongoro Crater. The stays at the various lodges were fine, the overnight stay in the Serengeti was amazing, and the days at the remote Lake Natron in Lake Natron Maasai Guest House were unforgettable, with a view of Ol Doinyo Lengai, “the Mountain of God”. We had the opportunity to experience Maasai culture there, which was very special. During the two weeks, we were completely taken care of and relieved of any worries. We saw a lot of wildlife: giraffes, elephants, zebras, gazelles, buffaloes, lions, hartebeests, hyenas, hippos, waterbucks, and rhinos. Thanks to the keen eyes of Roco the guide, we also spotted a serval, families of yellow-spotted rock hyraxes, and chameleons. It was a wonderful adventure.

Amazing experience, value for money and well connected to find the animals!
It was our first time going to a Safari and we did our research comparing across tour agencies and Dume Africa stands out with its prompt responses, accommodative to our requests and knowledgeable suggestions based on our requirements.
Henry was our tour guide and he was extremely well connected able to locate Big 5 sightings from his network. He also has excellent knowledge on both land animals and birds and we can see the passion from him as he explained the unique traits of each animals and birds throughout the tour.
It was an incredible trip and we highly recommend Henry for anyone who is starting their first foray into Africa Safari!

Super good, fast replies and all around very professional company.
We went on a 7-day safari with Bushcraft Safaris. From the very beginning the communication was super fast and super easy. They helped us with everything and told us about money exchange, visa process etc. The best part about the trip was our guide Allan - he was the one who made this trip 11 out of 10 - super smart, knew every animal you could see on a safari and also gave us a lot of facts and stories about history of Uganda. Great sense of humour and above all he was the best driver. All in all Uganda is super beautiful with kind people and if you want to see all Uganda has to offer - choose Bushcraft Safaris.

Efficient, friendly, fantastic!
Out of the many tour companies available, we are so happy we picked Peak Cruise Safaris as it surpassed our expectations! Jennifer (owner) was very professional and worked with us promptly to design the itinerary of our dreams! We did 3 days and 2 nights full of gorilla and golden monkey trekking! Originally we booked gorilla trekking in Uganda, but given the recent Ebola outbreak, we were forced to change our itinerary to be exclusively in Rwanda. Jennifer helped sort this out for us and eased any worries on our end. Our tour guide Godfrey was also exceptional - very friendly and knowledgeable! I would highly recommend this tour company especially given the value for money and reliability! Our accommodations were really nice as well :)

Efficient, professional, kind.
Our time with Loren Safaris was unforgettable! We did an 8 day safari through the Masai Mara in Kenya and the Serengeti in Tanzania. Loren worked with us from the beginning in a timely and professional manner to design a safari itinerary that was best for us. Our guides Ally and Aaron were also top notch, with lots of experience and great eyes for spotting wildlife! I would highly recommend booking with this Tanzanian-owned and operated safari company that hires only the best guides - Ally and Aaron!

Professional company with experienced drivers who provide an unforgettable experience
We recently completed a 6-day safari covering the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli, including a hot air balloon safari, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Every destination offered something unique, from the incredible wildlife of the Masai Mara to the beautiful scenery around Lake Naivasha and the breathtaking views of Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli. The hot air balloon safari was a real highlight and provided a completely different perspective of the African landscape at sunrise.
A huge part of what made this trip so special was our guide, Mo. His knowledge of the animals, their behaviour and the surrounding landscapes was exceptional. Rather than simply driving around hoping to spot wildlife, he understood where different animals were likely to be and how the terrain and time of day influenced their movements. Thanks to his experience, we were able to enjoy some incredible sightings that we might otherwise have missed.
Mo was also extremely accommodating throughout the trip. He always took the time to understand what we wanted to see and do, adapting the game drives and daily plans wherever possible to make sure we got the most from our safari. Whether it was spending longer watching a pride of lions, searching for a particular species or finding the perfect viewpoint, nothing ever seemed like too much trouble. His enthusiasm for wildlife was infectious, and he was always happy to answer our questions with interesting facts and stories about Kenya’s ecosystems, history and culture.
Just as importantly, Mo was friendly, approachable and professional throughout the six days. He created a relaxed atmosphere that made every game drive enjoyable, and it genuinely felt like we were exploring with someone who was passionate about sharing his country with visitors. Long journeys between parks flew by thanks to his conversations and local knowledge.
The accommodation throughout the safari was also excellent. Each lodge was comfortable, clean and well maintained, providing the perfect place to relax after long days of exploring. The staff at every location were incredibly hospitable and welcoming, always greeting us with a smile and making sure we had everything we needed. The quality of the food was very good, and the service consistently exceeded our expectations.
Overall, this safari was one of the best travel experiences we have ever had. The combination of stunning landscapes, unforgettable wildlife encounters, excellent accommodation and outstanding hospitality made it a truly memorable trip. Having a guide like Mo elevated the experience even further, and we are incredibly grateful for all the effort he put into making our safari so special.
I would highly recommend this tour to anyone considering a safari in Kenya. From the incredible destinations and well-organised itinerary to the fantastic accommodation and exceptional guiding, everything was handled brilliantly. It was an experience we’ll remember for the rest of our lives, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to friends and family.

Wonderful 5-day Mount Kenya Trek with a great team
I had a fantastic time doing a 5-day trek to Mount Kenya with Mountain Hiking Ventures. The communication with Irene during booking and pre-departure was smooth and she answered all of my many questions that I had. I met my excellent guide Kevin and porter Stanley at the office on the morning of departure where I also left my suitcase while going on the trek. We travelled by a shared minibus to Nanyuki where we also picked up the equipment I rented and then started the trek in the afternoon. The trekking itself was amazing with beautiful views. Kevin kept a good pace throughout the trek to help me adapt to the high altitude (I am an experienced hiker but I had not been to altitude above 2500 m before this trek). He was also always keen to tell me about the fascinating plants and animals we saw along the way (I am a biologist so this was very welcome!) and we had a great time chatting about life in Kenya. We reached the summit successfully which was amazing (but very cold and windy, even for a person who lives in Scotland!). The rest of the team, Stanley, Morris, and Naftari, were all super friendly and hospitable, always tried to make my experience as good as possible, and prepared some amazing meals for me (in fact, there was always more than I could eat!). I did the Sirimon Up and Chogoria Down version of the trip which I thought was a great choice with very good spacing of the camps along the elevation gradient and sufficient time to relax in the camps after hiking. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and can absolutely recommend Kevin and the rest of the group to anyone who is considering doing this trek!
