An excellent operator with great tours
During a week long stay in Kenya, my partner and I went on two trips with African Beasts (a two-day safari in Amboseli and a trip to Hell’s gate). Both were superbly well organised, with excellent and accommodating guides and drivers.

Extremely knowledgeable, patient and passionate about his job.
What a fantastic 3 days in the Maasai Mara with my family. Can not recommend Axis Africa and Ritchie more. We were spoiled seeing the Big 5 twice and even a leopard hunting. We will definitely be back again!

Melita is fabulous
We did a four day safari with Suricata Safaris. Melita was our driver and guide and oh my word he was amazing. He certainly knows his stuff and is passionate about his country and the animals. It made for a magical experience. We saw all the big 5 and more. I would highly recommend.

Great Safari with young children
We had an unforgettable experience with See Endless Adventures Safari. From the very beginning, Hatibu, our operator, was extremely responsive to all of our questions before, during, and even after our safari experience. His communication gave us so much confidence and made the entire process feel smooth and well organized.
Our guides, Paschal and Benson, along with our photographer Tom, did an incredible job from start to finish. They made sure everyone felt safe, comfortable, and taken care of throughout the entire safari.
They were especially amazing with our kids, keeping them entertained and making them feel comfortable during the trip. Paschal was incredible with my 5-year-old and had the most amazing conversations with her, which made the experience even more special for our family. Tom was also wonderful with the kids. Even though his job was to capture every precious moment, he still took the time to attend to them, make them laugh, and have great conversations with them.
For anyone traveling with very young kids, you cannot go wrong with See Endless Adventures.
Every animal we hoped to see, they truly went out of their way to help us find and we were lucky enough to see them all. Tom did an amazing job capturing every special moment for our family. One of the most memorable moments was when Paschal and Tom stopped just to capture the perfect frame of my wife and me during a beautiful Serengeti sunset. That showed how much they cared about making the experience special for us.
The lodging and food were also remarkable. Everything exceeded our expectations. See Endless Adventures Safari truly goes above and beyond to make sure their guests are satisfied. We are so grateful for the memories they helped create.
Highly, highly recommended!

The Perfect Safari Trip
We spent six unforgettable days on safari, visiting the Maasai Mara, the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire National Park. If we ever return for another safari, we would choose Lobo again without hesitation. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Communication before the trip – Stanley took excellent care of us from the very beginning. He always replied quickly, answered all of our questions and gave us great advice throughout the planning process.
Organization & Planning – Everything was perfectly organized and ran smoothly from start to finish. The company was reliable and our individual wishes were always taken into account.
Safari Guides (Kenya: Sosio | Tanzania: Fredy) – Both guides were outstanding. They have extensive knowledge of the local culture, wildlife and nature. They were incredibly friendly, patiently answered our countless questions and always considered our personal wishes. They coordinated everything perfectly with the lodges and both speak several languages. Even though my English is quite basic, communication was never a problem. They are highly professional drivers and we always felt completely safe and comfortable with them.
Wildlife Sightings – We were lucky enough to see the Big Five not only in the Maasai Mara but also again in Tanzania, which was absolutely amazing. Our guides worked incredibly hard to find wildlife and stayed in constant contact with other guides to maximize our chances of great sightings. They always respected the animals and made sure wildlife was never disturbed. During the transfer day from the Maasai Mara to the Serengeti via the border, there are naturally fewer animals to see, but it offers a fascinating glimpse into everyday life in both Kenya and Tanzania.
Accommodation (Mid-range) – Every lodge exceeded our expectations. The staff were wonderful, the rooms were clean and comfortable and each location was fantastic. Everything had been carefully selected by Lobo and matched our preferences perfectly. Spending two nights in the heart of the Serengeti was one of the highlights of our trip—waking up with zebras right outside our accommodation was simply unforgettable.
Food – The food at every accommodation was delicious, varied and plentiful. We enjoyed every meal and had no issues at all. During the game drives, there was always cold drinking water available and the packed lunch boxes were excellent. We especially enjoyed sharing meals with our guides and learning more about their countries and culture.
Safari Vehicle – The vehicle was clean, comfortable and in excellent condition. It was well equipped with everything we needed, including a refrigerator and charging sockets. It was cleaned every day, which made the long game drives even more enjoyable.
Overall Experience – An unforgettable safari that exceeded all of our expectations. We never imagined we would see so much wildlife in just six days. Every day brought new highlights and the entire journey was perfectly organized. We would choose Lobo again anytime and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an exceptional safari experience.
Excellent private three day safari
Great safari from start to finish.
Saltlick safari lodge was amazing and a highlight of our tour.
Sebastian our guide, was such a patient and skilled driver in the reserves, but especially on the Kenyan highways.
Great communication from the company. Pricing was good and well worth the money for a private tour.

Smooth and easy eco tour through Uganda
My partner and I booked a 12 day tour through Uganda with Santaviva. They were recommended by our friend who had a great experience with them and Ivan who took great care of us and created an amazing itinerary. Leading up to it, we were worried about the recent Ebola outbreak, however Ivan assured us that the outbreak was extremely limited to a few imported cases in a place we would not go anywhere near and that top health protocols would be followed regardless throughout the journey. True enough, we had no issues and everything ran as normal.
Our main priority was the Gorillas in Bwindi, but we also visited Murchison Falls NP, Queen Elizabeth NP, chimp and rhino Trekking (both serious highlights), and Lake Bunyonyi. Ivan acted as our driver and guide throughout, making sure everything ran very smoothly. During planning, Ivan was always very responsive which gave us lots of confidence and made preparation easy. Ivan also took special care to ensure the trip was as eco, sustainable and responsible as possible from booking eco lodges to reducing the amount of plastic bottles purchased.
We loved our trip and cannot recommend it highly enough.

Jordan is an exceptional guide!
My husband and I went on a 6-day safari (2 nights in Tarangire, 2 nights in the Serengeti, and 1 night in Ngonrogonro).
Jordan was an exceptional guide with a wealth of knowledge. He taught us so much about the animals (he's truly passionate, and it shows!), the flora of the different areas, Tanzanian culture, and much more.
We were lucky enough to see the Big Five and all the animals we wanted to see (all while dodging tsetse flies!!!), we learned a lot of Swahili words, and we had a lot of laughs!
You can trust Suricata and Jordan!

Well organised and great staff !!
Did the walking with Rhinos 3 hour private safari. Transport was no issue and our guide and driver Jones /Joe (forgive us if we are wrong ) was an awesome guy. Saw a few animals but most importantly spent 10 minutes with majestic white rhinos !!! We also had the pleasure of returning via Livingstone back to Vic Falls Zimbabwe. Wonderful experience and a big thank you to all.

Perfect day trip with Johnny !
We did a day tour with Johnny to Materuni waterfalls and Chemka hotsprings and everything was perfect. The car, food, stops, and above all our guide.
Thank you for the tour, the good mood and everything you showed and taught us ! Particularly enjoyed stopping in the wild to watch the sunset over Mount Meru and the Kilimandjaro.
We would definitely recommend Suricata and Johnny !
