Once in a Lifetime Honeymoon in Kenya
Our safari experience with Estleon far surpassed our expectations! Esther planned an amazing trip for us and I am so thankful we chose her company! Our itinerary was perfectly planned so that we got to see a mix of all of animals, with each park we visited specializing in different animals. We decided to drive rather than fly to each destination and I am so glad we did because it allowed us to see more of the beautiful country and also allowed for more shopping! Esther stayed will within the budget guidelines we initially gave her and she had different level of accommodations ready upon request. Seeing as it was our honeymoon she encouraged us to upgrade 2 accommodations and I am so glad we did!! They were phenomenal camps that I cannot recommend enough (Elephant Gorge in Amboseli national park and The Cliff in Lake Nakuru). Both were very romantic and private accommodation that we will recommend to anyone visiting Kenya.
Our trip ran incredibly smoothly, with no unexpected delays. Our guide and driver Peter was incredibly knowledgeable and was the perfect roadtrip buddy for the week! He was very accommodating with stopping to rest during the longer drives, as well as planning out our game drives to fit around longer travel days. On game drives he was a perfect mix of calm and assertive in order to help us maximize our safari experience.
All in all it was an absolutely amazing trip and I cannot recommend Esther, Peter and Estleon enough for anyone looking to visit Kenya for a Safari!

Well-organised, knowledgeable and reliable guides and smooth logistics.
I had a fantastic experience with Yves and Ikaze Rwanda Tours & Travel. Everything was smooth and well organised. Yves very kindly accommodated some of the requests regarding pickup and time slots.
Opted for the safari in Akagera National Park and the Golden monkey trek in Volcanoes National Park.
Elvis, our guide for the safari, was brilliant. Really knowledgeable, fun hang, and he clearly knew the right spots to find the animals. Very helpful throughout, not just to me but also other tour guides. Saw a bunch of giraffes, hippos, rhinos, lions, buffalos, loads of antelopes, and zebras. Spotted a couple of vervet monkeys as well.
The golden monkey trail was just as good. Was a real treat seeing them up close. Olivier was our driver, and the cab ride was smooth and comfortable.
Pickup, lunch and dropoff was well organised for both these trips.
Altogether, everything ran without a hitch. Good value for money and would happily recommend!

Saloniki was a fantastic guide with deep knowledge of animals, nature and culture!
We did the 3-day tour in , and the trip was worth every penny!
The communication beforehand was excellent, so there were no questions left unanswered. The transportation was perfectly organized, and our guide, Saloniki, was simply fantastic. He didn’t just do his job — he genuinely enjoyed what he was doing and shared his extensive knowledge with us. Thanks to his great tracking skills, we saw three different groups of lions, several groups of elephants, zebras, buffaloes, countless giraffes, hippos, and almost all the animals that roam the park. Our expectations were exceeded by far.
We can wholeheartedly recommend this trip!

Amazing Experience
We had an absolutely unforgettable experience with Altezza! Our guide, Rasul Sultan, was truly exceptional. He went above and beyond to make sure we saw everything we wanted to see—and so much more.
From start to finish, Altezza made everything so easy. They took care of all the details, allowing us to simply enjoy the experience without having to worry about anything. Rasul was knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our trip special.
He made the entire experience unforgettable, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. We would highly recommend Altezza, and especially Rasul, to anyone looking for an incredible Tanzania experience!

A tour operator went beyond our expectations.
A safari has been my dream vacation for a long time and I was able to complete that with the help of Good Secrets. I can’t express my gratitude for their attention to detail and communication. Since the start of the process, any questions I had Elsy was responsive and guided me to understand what I truly wanted and customized where possible. Once arriving to Kenya, we were welcomed with open arms at the airport and throughout our 4 day safari trip. They went beyond expectations and even one night had a birthday cake surprise waiting for me. The lodges were amazing and loved viewing the sunset in the Maasai Mara. Solomon and his team made us feel like family and hopefully one day can go back and do it all over again!

An Incredible Safari — Far Exceeded Our Expectations!
We recently completed an amazing safari with Altezza Travel that started at the Gran Meliá Hotel in Arusha and took us through Tarangire National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti National Park, finishing with a flight back to Arusha from the Serengeti airstrip.
The experience far exceeded our expectations. We saw more animals than we could ever have imagined, and the entire safari was absolutely incredible. For the value, we definitely feel we got our money’s worth.
Our guide, Razul Sultan, was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and genuinely enjoyable to spend time with. Having a great guide makes a huge difference on a safari, and Razul made the experience even better.
The accommodations were also a wonderful part of the adventure. One was like a beautiful villa overlooking Lake Manyara, while the other was an authentic camp right in the Serengeti. One thing we would mention to anyone doing this trip: don’t be concerned about the roads leading to the accommodations! Both involve some very rough 4x4 roads that don’t look anything like a road leading to a hotel or villa. We were a little surprised the first time, but that’s simply how you reach these wonderfully isolated places.
The Serengeti accommodation was an especially memorable experience. After dark, you are escorted to your room by someone carrying a spear because wild animals can be nearby. Don’t be frightened — it’s a normal safety precaution and actually adds to the adventure! The beds were very comfortable, and although there is no air conditioning, the fans and screened openings provided plenty of airflow for a comfortable night’s sleep.
One recommendation we would strongly make is to fly back to Arusha rather than drive if that option is available. The drive back takes approximately 7–8 hours, with much of it on very rough dirt roads with constant little bumps. After an incredible safari, the flight is a much more enjoyable way to finish the trip.
Overall, this was an unforgettable experience, and we would highly recommend Altezza Travel. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Razul Sultan, and the safari exceeded our expectations in every way.

Unforgettable experience
Jenny’s adventures was the only tour company we could find that offered a private 2 day trip from Nairobi to Masai Mara with game drives on both days. We drove stopping on the way at a view point and an all inclusive safari tour rest spot, both were great and perfectly timed for a stop. Arriving at the park around 1pm we didn’t leave until the gates closed at 6.45. In this time Calvoh got us to everything there was to see. Starting with giraffes, elephants, zebras and all kinds of antelopes. We then followed some cats seeing a family of lions, cheetah and leopard. After this incredible day we stayed in Enkorok Mara Camp which was perfect, large ‘tents’ with all the amenities of a well equipped hotel room. We headed out early for our second drive where we saw more lions, hyenas, went to the Tanzania boarder before heading to the rivers to see hippopotamus and crocodiles guided by a ranger. We finished at a migration point with buffalo and zebras preparing to cross. There is nothing we didn’t see and Calvoh couldn’t have got us closer. I would definitely recommend the private trip the smaller vehicles can get so much closer to the animals in tight spots.
From initial contact communication was instant and everything was planned perfectly. We thank the team for this amazing once in a lifetime trip!

Very fun and knowledgeable.
I had Maarufu from Kihindo tours and safaris and it was an amazing experience. We spent 5 days, first night boat then three full days safari then left the last day. I told him I really wanted to see the wild dogs even though it’s one of the toughest seasons to spot them, and sure enough on the last day we found them and spent tons of time viewing them. Besides the wild dogs it was amazing because he was very knowledgeable and knew where to go and view certain animals.

Fantastic safari with Maarufu!
My son really wanted to come to Nyrere to see the wild dogs. Even though it’s not a great season for viewing, Maarufu tirelessly searched for us. And with great success! We were able to find the dogs as well as many other wildlife. He explained everything to us and was able to answer our questions, even when about small birds or different types of trees. He pointed out the interesting walking patterns of giraffes and elephants and many more interesting facts. He was even able to make the different animal calls to attract the animal’s attention. I would highly recommend going on safari with Maarufu and Kihindo. We had such a fantastic trip!
