Excellent Comprehensive Experience
Brilliant Adventures and Safaris did a fantastic job. Our group was always well taken-care of and looked after. We felt very safe throughout the safari and never had to worry about food/water/travel accommodations, etc. Brilliant Safaris made sure we had a very competent driver who knew the best spots to see all the animals. We ended up seeing every single animal we wanted, including all the elusive big cats and even rhino. Would highly recommend using Brilliant Adventures and Safaris for your trip and going to both the Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park. We ended our trip in Zanzibar where we had relaxing days on the beach, as well as did some scuba diving. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
Absolutely fantastic
What a fantastic safari. Our tour guide Sharif was very knowledgeable and was so helpful. He was brilliant in spotting animals on our safari game drives. Very accommodating would not hesitate to book a safari through this company.
Highly recommend.

5 stars
We had an absolutely fantastic three-day safari experience in Kenya. Everything was very well organized from start to finish, and a special mention has to go to our guides, Simon, David and Joshua, who did an outstanding job.
They were excellent throughout the safari tours — knowledgeable, professional and always making sure we had the best possible experience and opportunities to see the wildlife. But what impressed us just as much was their support and attention throughout the entire trip. They were always available, helpful and genuinely committed to making sure everything went smoothly and that we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves.
Travelling as a family, this level of care made a real difference and allowed us to simply relax and enjoy this unforgettable experience. Five stars!

Perfect
This was the most reasonably priced option we found. However, that doesn't mean the quality was low; it was a fulfilling trip. We were happy that there was hot water at the accommodation. It would have been perfect if the lunch box had been tastier.

It was a wonderful and enjoyable safari tour!
There were many tour options available, so we were able to choose a plan that suited us. During the safari, we saw many different kinds of animals, which was an amazing and memorable experience.
We had a fantastic time and really enjoyed the whole tour!

GREAT
The overall experience of this Tanzania Safari was very good, and the whole journey was full of gains. Highly recommended. Our driver and guide, Dominica, is professional and attentive, familiar with the terrain of the protected areas, and always helps us find wildlife. He drives steadily, safely, and explains animal habits. He knows how to take care of our photography needs and waits patiently without rushing to travel. Along the way, you can see the grasslands and diverse creatures, and immerse yourself in the grandeur of East Africa's nature. Thanks to Dominica, the whole trip was smooth and memorable. I would choose to come back if I had the chance. It was worth it.

Excellent experience for family safari
Fondness Vacations team is excellent! From the organization before the travel. Example? The internal flight they have found us saved many hours of road up to North Serengeti, other operators did nit offer that in the price.
AirFrance have left our luggage in Paris, and Martin our excellent pick up driver gave us new T-shirts from the agency!! In addition asked a shop to open before midnight for us to buy some basics!
Then our exceptional safari driver Mr Jef…! Such a special eye… he could spot a lion from our moving car at an incredibly distance. He was extra attentive with our daughters, answering questions and supporting us in every request during the trip.
In addition… both tented hotels were not only beautiful but the food and the staff were great!
Highly recommend!

Provided a great experience.
Thank you Vision Safari. A truly great experience. Your guide was excellent, very knowledgeable, and had an excellent ability to find and time the animal sightings. The extra day in the Serengeti allowed us to take in the spectacular Mara river crossing which other tour groups missed. We decided to do a low to mid range accommodation tour which gave us the full experience. Our fellow travelers were great too.

Leave Europe behind
In preparation of the journey I communicated with Jerome who proved to be extremely committed and always ready to respond immediately to my wishes. During the safari we were guided by Patrick who is a very experienced driver and travel guide and was able to find wildlife away from the crowds. We particularly enjoyed the day at Ngorongoro Crater with a scenery so different from ordinary life that you feel like in Garden Eden. As for accomodation in Arusha I recommend that travellers check the descriptions carefully before approving and let Jerome know exactly what you want and what you do not want so he can make the necessary arrangements and avoid disappointment.

Exceptional Experience!
My friend and I recently returned from an unforgettable safari in Kenya, covering Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha & Crescent Island, and Amboseli National Park, and we cannot recommend Gemfinders enough. From start to finish, the entire trip was flawlessly executed with zero issues and packed with incredible, happy memories.
Right from the pickup to the quality of the safari vehicle, the hand-picked hotels, the seamless service, and clear communication every step of the way, every single detail exceeded our expectations.
A massive shout-out to Tracy, who handled all our pre-trip planning and communication. She was the absolute anchor of our tour, answering all our questions and crafting a dream itinerary that flowed effortlessly.
Special recognition goes to our amazing driver and tour guide, Issac. He was simply amazing, incredibly helpful, deeply knowledgeable about the wildlife and landscapes, and always accommodating. Issac constantly went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible wildlife sightings and a truly fabulous experience.
If you are planning a trip to Kenya, look no further. We recommend Gemfinders 100%!
