⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable Kenya Safari Experience!
Our trip to Kenya was absolutely incredible, and I highly recommend this company! From the very beginning, Sammy, our travel agent, was extremely professional, responsive, and attentive. He organized every detail of our itinerary perfectly, making the entire experience smooth and worry-free.
A special thank you to Michael, our driver in Nairobi. He was friendly, punctual, professional, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout our time in the city. His knowledge of Nairobi and his warm personality made every transfer enjoyable.
The highlight of our trip was the safari in the Maasai Mara, which was truly an unforgettable experience. Our safari guide was exceptional—knowledgeable, passionate, and incredibly skilled at spotting wildlife. We were fortunate enough to see an amazing variety of animals, including the Big Five, and every game drive was an exciting adventure.
From the excellent planning by Sammy to the outstanding service provided by Michael and our fantastic safari guide, everything exceeded our expectations. Kenya is a beautiful country, and this trip created memories that will last a lifetime.
If you're looking for a professional, trustworthy travel company that delivers an exceptional safari experience, I highly recommend booking with them. We would definitely travel with them again!

Trip of a Lifetime
We recently travelled to Kenya with Kenan Travel, and it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. From the very beginning, the trip was carefully tailored to our needs, with a personalised itinerary that maximised our safari time, perfectly matched our flights, and included a relaxing stay on Diani Beach at the end. Every element felt thoughtfully planned, making the entire journey seamless and stress-free.
The pricing structure was another highlight. It was clear, transparent, and flexible, with multiple options provided so we could tailor the trip to suit our budget. This made the planning process straightforward and gave us confidence that we were getting exactly what we wanted.
A special thank you goes to Jane, who managed the trip overall. She was incredibly attentive and responsive, always available on WhatsApp to resolve even the smallest queries instantly—even over the weekend. Her support throughout made a real difference and ensured everything ran smoothly.
Our safari driver, Bill, was absolutely outstanding and deserves particular recognition. His knowledge, professionalism, and passion for wildlife were evident throughout, and his expert driving and positioning played a huge role in us being able to see all of the Big Five. He was also a very safe and reliable driver during transfers between parks and locations, which gave us great peace of mind.
The highlights of some of the animals we saw thanks to Bill’s navigating were black and white rhinos, cheetahs, the great migration in Maasai Mara, two leopards, lion cubs, and lots of elephants!
This trip was especially meaningful for us, as we got engaged during the holiday—and Jane and Bill went above and beyond to make it unforgettable. Jane organised private meals and special evenings at the resorts, adding a real sense of occasion. On the day itself, Bill played a huge part in making the proposal perfect: he helped find a beautiful, secluded spot, kept everything a surprise, and even set up a table with sparkling wine of his own initiative. It was a moment we will never forget.
We cannot recommend Kenan Travel highly enough. Their attention to detail, personalised service, and the exceptional people they have on the ground made this a truly special experience.
We originally found Kenan Travel and Tours through various internet searches, their Tripadvisor, and on various forums. Committing to private companies can sometimes be daunting, particular with such a big purchase, but Kenan are one which you can trust.

Amazing experience
Coordinating and planning this trip with Julian was awesome. We were able to tailor our trip based on preferences, budget, amount of time, etc. Julian was always quick to respond to our questions and everything went smoothly. We had a last minute flight delay and were able to postpone our transfer to the airport.
Our trip was 10 days (5 safari, 5 in Zanzibar). Our guide/driver Patrick was incredible, we were actually sad to leave him when we had to go to Zanzibar.
He was super friendly, always willing to adjust the days plans/amount of time spent in the parks, and was so fun to have alongside us.
All of the accommodations were great, the food was delicious, and the service overall was 10/10!
Great experience and will definitely be back!

Great safari and guide!!!
Sustainable Safari Tours is a fantastic organization. The owner, Joshua, is easy to reach and speaks excellent English; we had very pleasant communication while planning the safari beforehand. He is very flexible. Our itinerary included 3 days in the Serengeti, 1 day at Lake Manyara, 1 day in Tarangire, and a day in the Ngorongoro Crater.
We paid 4,500 euros, including accommodation and meals. We stayed in luxury tents equipped with showers, toilets, and comfortable beds.
We were lucky enough to go out with Joshua himself. What an amazing ranger and driver he is! He knows exactly how to spot the wildlife. In the Serengeti, we went on safari from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM. We really wanted to see the migration and the river crossing, and Joshua made sure we got there—it was truly amazing!
He is Maasai himself. It is incredibly special to hear firsthand stories about the traditions, way of life, and customs of his village. It was also wonderful to see how the Maasai boys look up to him and are so impressed by him.
We had a truly AMAZING safari!! Thank you, Joshua! 🙏 ❤️

Sospeter's expertise and passion turned an amazing safari into an unforgettable adventure.
Epic. Our African safari with Eliteways Travel exceeded every expectation and was one of the best family vacations we've ever taken.
From the beginning, Eliteway worked with us to create a custom itinerary that was perfect for our family. We visited four incredible national parks, spent time in Nairobi at both the beginning and end of the trip, experienced a breathtaking sunrise hot air balloon ride over the Maasai Mara followed by a champagne brunch, and were fortunate enough to see the Big Five. Every accommodation was excellent and offered tremendous value.
What truly made the trip unforgettable was having a dedicated guide for our family throughout the entire week. Sospeter was exceptional—knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in making every day special. By the end of the trip, he felt like an extension of our family, and we've stayed in touch ever since.
If you're considering a safari in Kenya, I can't recommend Eliteway highly enough. They delivered an unforgettable experience that our family will treasure for a lifetime.

Touring with Nelson was indeed spectacular
I am a solo traveler, but I was part of a tour group, mainly for gorilla trekking, and used *Ngorongoro Tours*. Nelson was our tour guide and we could not have had a better person. He was very supportive and knowledgeable.
All accommodations, trekking, game drives - all well organized making the experience relaxing and enjoyable. The chimpanzees and gorilla encounters were unforgettable.
Nelson did a fantastic job in providing options and suggestions for the group to have a wonderful experience. He even provided an extra night game drive to see if we could catch more animals in the wild.
He provided us an extraordinarily and memorable experience in every step of the way.
*I Highly recommend Ngorongoro Tours* for anyone looking for a wonderful and worry-free African Tour.
Touring with *Ngorongoro Tours* was truly incredible and all thanks to Nelson who was knowledgeable, helpful, accommodating, and very welcoming.
Perfect organization, great accommodations. 100% recommend *Ngorongoro Tours* for a worry-free African adventure!

A reliable and caring operator that handles every detail with thoughtfulness and expertise
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to our guide Felix and the entire team for their thoughtful arrangements. On the day of our departure, there happened to be a parade in the city. We were initially concerned about traffic and safety, but the team was even more considerate than we could have hoped for they arranged for us to set off early, successfully avoiding the congestion and potential risks. That really put our minds at ease.
Felix, our driver-guide, impressed us with his professionalism. He has an incredible eye for spotting wildlife and always managed to position the vehicle at the perfect angle, giving us the best views for photos. The itinerary was well-planned—plenty of activities to fully experience the safari, yet the pace was relaxed and never overwhelming. We enjoyed every moment without feeling rushed.
From the initial communication to the execution of the trip, the entire service was reliable and reassuring. It was truly a trip that exceeded our expectations and offered great value for money. We have already recommended your agency to our family and friends.
Many thanks again to Simon and Felix!

Best two weeks of our lives thanks to Paul and his team!
We booked a 14-day Kenya/Tanzania trip with RoadsideTanzania (Amboseli, Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, ending with a few days in Zanzibar), and it's genuinely one of the best trips we've ever taken and a lot of that comes down to Paul and Walter.
Paul owns the company and designed the whole thing around what we actually wanted rather than a standard package. He was quick to respond throughout the planning process, and when we asked to adjust a few things along the way, he just made it happen …no friction, no upsell, just "sure, here's how." He also arranged a hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti that ended up being one of the best mornings of the trip.
Walter was our guide in the vehicle, and by day two it stopped feeling like a tour and started feeling like traveling with a friend who happened to know everything about the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Africa. He didn't wait for us to ask questions and half the time we didn't even know what to ask. He’d just start pointing things out and explaining what we were looking at. He found us the most amazing animals and not only knew the names of all of them (how, we will never know), he’d find them in a guide book so we could learn more. He knew exactly where to take us, and it showed: lions strolling right up to the car, leopards lounging in the tree, herds of wildlife...it was so amazing!!! He was patient, kind, sharp, funny, and made sure we never missed a thing. He took such great care of us crossing the boarder, ensuring we were settled with accommodations...he was incredible!
We closed out the trip flying to Zanzibar, where Paul had arranged a great Stone Town tour before we headed to the other side of the island to scuba dive the reef…positively outstanding, and the perfect way to end two weeks that had already given us so much.
Between Paul's planning and Walter's guiding, we never once felt like we were managing our own trip, rather someone had already thought everything. If you're considering Tanzania Roadside Expeditions, book it, you'll have no regrets.... and ASK FOR WALTER!! This was the trip of a lifetime traveling from Los Angeles to Africa and we couldn’t have been happier with how everything unfolded.

Birding in Uganda
The July birdwatching trip to Uganda exceeded my expectations, both in the number of birds and the diversity of species we observed. Kibuga Davis delivered the planned itinerary and also added several extra birding hotspots along the way, giving us the chance to see species that were not originally expected.
When our plans had to change because the target birds were not found in Semuliki National Park, Kibuga quickly adapted the itinerary. Thanks to his flexibility, we were able to visit both Queen Elizabeth National Park and Lake Mburo National Park, making excellent use of the extra time.
Forest birding is never easy, but Kibuga's outstanding knowledge, experience, and local network made the trip highly successful. The birds we saw were a direct result of his expertise and dedication.
I highly recommend Kibuga Davis as a birding guide and tour organizer. He is professional, resourceful, and truly committed to helping his clients achieve their birding goals. I would happily join another trip with him.

Well worth
This trip was well worth the price and offered plenty of flexibility to customize the itinerary based on where we wanted to go and how we preferred to explore each destination. The tour company handled all the tickets, permits, hotels, and logistics, allowing us to relax and enjoy the entire experience without worrying about the details.
A special thank-you to our guide, Edward. His outgoing personality, positive energy, and enthusiasm created a fun and welcoming atmosphere throughout the trip. We truly appreciated having him as our guide and would highly recommend this tour to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania.
