Brett is an excellent tour operator.
Sun Safaris arranged our trip to Victoria Falls, Cape Town and Timbivati Reserve. We asked for animals, animals, animals and for a very special experience within our budget. Brett organized an extraordinary trip; beautiful hotels, excellent guides and seamless transportation. He was responsive to questions and concerns with Zoom meetings, by emails and phone calls.
What did not work was going through the third party payment company. It would have been helpful if Brett/Sun Safaris had been able to provide a different credit card payment option as not being able to use our Citi Visa card resulted in the loss of hundreds of dollars of the cash back benefit on that card.
Thank you Brett, for your knowledge, experience, patience and engaging manner. We made very special memories from the extraordinary experiences of this trip.

Very dedicated guide
We enjoyed our safari in Samburu NR reserve very much. Our guide, Graham, was very dedicated and knew very much about all the animals and even had a notebook with pictures to show the differences between several types of one animal.
In regards to the touroperator itself we had an issue with the quote not being fully correct, which lead to having to pay an extra entrance fee upon arrival, which is a bit unfortunate but mistakes happen.

Nairobi national Park half day tour
I can recommend the tour.
The drivers were punctual, communication was very good, and we saw a lot on the safari.
One star deducted: the quote stated that the new park increases were already included, but a few days before the tour, we were told to pay an additional $40 per person.

Amazing safari, small hiccups
We used Lenchada for 4 days on a private tour, visiting the Maasai Mara and Lakes Naivasha and Nakuru.
Richard (Ritchie) was our driver/guide and was incredible. He was very friendly, incredibly knowledge, and passionate about Kenya and the animals there. He also worked incredibly hard to make our safari as great as possible, hurtling over plains to make sure we saw as many incredible things as possible, including the 'Big 5'. Collins in the office was also swift and accommodating with our various requests and questions.
There were a couple of small issues with Lenchada that could be improved. The itinerary changed (both the route and accommodation) without notice. This didn't make the experience worse, but it was unsettling. It cost 5% more to pay by card, which felt unreasonable as nobody will carry that much cash on holiday. The bathroom in the Maasai camp left a lot to be desired, including an unaddressed leak in the bathroom.
Overall some minor quibbles but an incredible experience.

He was knowledgeable about the parks
Booking was easy and Rogers was very helpful designing the right tour for our family. Very good communication regardless of the time difference he was able to answer questions when we had them.
We were able to see all the animals we had hoped to see. Our accommodations were very nice and great for our family. We did have a snag getting into one of the parks so we did miss a night game hunt but we were able to get in the next day. The vehicle was comfortable and we had plenty of space for our family of 5 and our luggage.

Top driver, good price, but be careful about the agents
We made a 3 days safari in October 2025 with jocky tours. The safari was a wonderful experience. Our driver, Moses, was a very skilled driver, he knows exactly where to find the animals and he makes his best to show us the maximum.
Unfortunately, we had a problem with the agent. When we arrived in our lodges, we booked 3 singles rooms with Jocky, but they booked us a triple room instead. So we had to call them and it took like 2 hours to solve the problem. So finally I would highly recommend Jocky but my advice is to be really careful when you make your reservation, ask the agent a proof of the booking.

The route was great; we really enjoyed this experience with King Solomon.
The route we did was perfect — we managed to complete the Big Five! Our guide, Emmanuel, was very friendly and resourceful; he made sure we saw everything we were hoping for and even more. The meals prepared by our cook, Edric, were delicious — he was always kind and attentive. In conclusion, it was an unforgettable adventure.

An amazing experience !
We went on a 3 days joining safari with Mountain Warriors. First we met Rehema who was really kind and available for our demand at a late time. Rehema wanted to put us with an other group with an other company but we didn’t wanted so she arranged all the stuff for us to go with Mountain Warriors. The morning, we met Kefas, our guide, and Ali, our chef. They were really kind! Kefas is an incredible guide who bring us as close as possible from the animals. It was amazing. The Ali’s food was also really good. The camps where we slept were great.
We had a little issue with the car at the beginning but Kefas solved really fast in vue of the situation on the road.
Anyway, the experience was unbelievable thanks to Kefas, Ali and Rehema!

Affordable and easy to access tour
Overall this tour was really lovely. Transport from Johannesburg was convenient.
I would advise to read the type of lodging carefully. I didn’t know I was getting a tent accommodation because I didn’t read everything throughly. The tent was nice, had its own restroom and was fine for the short trip I was on.
There were some hiccups with getting transport back to Johannesburg. Communication was not clear with the drivers, but was quickly sorted when I reached out to the contact information. They offered to buy my lunch and kept me in the loop with updates.
The safari itself was great. My guide was friendly and knowledgeable.
