Average tour at best.
Amazing parks. Serengeti and the Crater being the highlight of the trip, so rich with wild life.
The trip started very nice until our driver decided that we have our lunch in the car, as he wasn't bothered set up a table for us !
That day ended in Nakupenda lodge, we needed a WiFi but the lodge manager gave us a lodge with no internet!! I went back to him to change the lodge but he kept us waiting there for an hour with no reason or consideration that we were tired from travelling and the drive!!
I asked the driver to pack coffee Thermos for the drive on the fist day, he totally ignored my wish until the end of the tour !!! It was suppose to be a luxury tour ..!!
On the second day we drove all the way to nogorongo, up the misty foggy hills to find out that the car wipers were not working in the tired dated vehicle, the dust from the road was sticking to the windshield making it muddy and hard to see, the fog made it worse, it was very dangerous drive up steep narrow roads under such conditions, the driver was splashing water from the window on the windscreen to see the road !!
On the final day the driver came to pick us up with a filthy dusty vehicle from the drive the day before, maybe trying to save some money, very cheap and unprofessional.
Despite all the above the last lodge Mvuli hotel was quite special. And the parks were full of wild life and worth the trouble.

Outstanding 3-Day Safari with a Local Tanzanian Company
We booked our three-day safari with Riobas Safari because the company made the best overall impression in terms of customer service, communication and professionalism. They were not the cheapest provider, but the booking process was quick, uncomplicated and very well organised.
Our itinerary started and ended on Zanzibar:
Day 1: Tarangire National Park, overnight at Bougainvillea Safari Lodge
Day 2: Ngorongoro Crater, overnight at Bougainvillea Safari Lodge
Day 3: Lake Manyara National Park, followed by our return to Zanzibar
The entire safari experience was fantastic. Tarangire, the Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara each offered completely different landscapes and wildlife experiences, making the itinerary varied and exciting from beginning to end.
Our guide was a major part of what made the trip so enjoyable. He was friendly, positive, easy-going and professional. We had a lot of fun together, felt comfortable at all times and enjoyed three unforgettable days.
The safari vehicle was excellent, the equipment was comfortable, and the food and drinks provided during the journey were very well suited to the trip. Everything we needed was available, allowing us to focus entirely on the wildlife and the experience.
We also appreciated that Robas Safari is a genuinely Tanzanian-owned and operated company. Booking directly with a local provider means that more of the money remains in Tanzania and supports the local economy, guides, drivers, accommodation providers and their families.
We were extremely happy with our safari and would recommend Robas Safari without hesitation. Thank you to Joseph, Bankres and the entire team for this memorable experience.

Amazing, truly surpassed our expectations!
Kathi really made this trip amazing. She was on top of all of our travel accommodations and kept in touch throughout the whole trip. My parents loved planning this trip with her and I will be sure to use her for all of our future trips to SA. This was an amazing experience for my families first time traveling abroad. We felt well taken care of and safe. The safari guides, camp staff, drivers, and hotel staff were incredible. I canβt wait to visit again! Beautiful country and great representation!

Relaxed & Exiting Safari in Tsavo and Amboseli
Isiah is a master of spot finding and makes the whole safari experience relaxed as well as exiting. We spent 4 days with him in Tsavo and Amboseli and saw all you could wish for. π π¦ π π¦ π π¦ and also hyenas and a lot of birds. All of us felt well guided and taken care of. Isaiah also has a lot of knowledge about the amazing animals which adds to the experience.
We lived at three different camps. First night at Man Eaters Lodge, second night at Tahita Hills and third night at Kibo Safari Camp.
Man Eaters was a 1-βοΈ. Location okay but food was terrible. Tahita was a 3-βοΈ. Nice hotel but felt like aβ¦ hotel. Food was okay. Kibo was a 5-βοΈ. Amazing location, service and food.
With this said, we got what we paid for and beyond. The service from the operator Mimsoft was a 5-βοΈ.

An UNFORGETTABLE and INCREDIBLE experience that will stay with me in life
Our experience with Kyla Wild Adventures was undoubtedly unforgettable. Prior to the trip, Judith from the team and Joseph, the company owner, reached out to me promptly. They carefully enquired about my requirements, answered all my questions with great kindness, and provided excellent itineraries along with competitive quotes. Their warmth built my full trust in this company, and the actual experience lived up to every expectation.
Upon arriving in Kenya, we met our guide David, whose professionalism and enthusiasm were truly impressive. Throughout the safari, he shared detailed knowledge about wildlife and conservation areas, and patiently responded to all our queries. What is more, I have to say David is absolutely phenomenal at spotting animals. He could locate wildlife quickly and position our vehicle for the best viewing spots in good time. Thanks to David, we spotted the complete Big Five! We also managed to take many sharp, clear photographs. We are incredibly grateful to him.
Overall, this has been an extremely satisfying experience. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this journey. Kyla Wild Adventures stands out for its professionalism, passion and friendliness. Its valueβforβmoney service, thoughtful trip arrangements and outstanding safari experience are beyond reproach. It is absolutely a trustworthy choice and I would highly recommend them!

An perfectly organized Safari with a brilliant guide
Overall, the safari was perfect. Our guide, Aaron, had an exceptional knowledge of the wildlife and knew exactly where to find the animals. We were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five. It was truly a dream come true.
Aaron is also a very fair, friendly, and respectful guide and driver, both towards other guides and the park rangers. This definitely pays off during the safari, as he regularly receives helpful information from other guides and rangers about where animals have recently been spotted.
It was an absolutely fantastic experience. Aaron also does his very best to accommodate every request and make anything you suggest possible.

The experience of a lifetime β thank you, Derrick and Wild Uganda!
We had an absolutely amazing experience with Derrick and Wild Uganda!
Derrick was an outstanding guide from start to finish. His knowledge about Uganda, its wildlife, nature, and culture is incredible. He answered every single question we had with patience, enthusiasm, and impressive expertise, making every game drive and every day even more interesting.
What really stood out was how much he cared about our experience. He even went out of his way to find Coke Zero for us, which was such a thoughtful gesture and made us feel truly looked after. He was always friendly, professional, reliable, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trip.
We would also like to highly recommend Wild Uganda for organizing our safari. Everything was perfectly planned, and the communication before and during the trip was excellent. Even when our flight schedule changed, they quickly adjusted our itinerary and made everything work without any stress for us. Their flexibility and customer service were exceptional.
Thanks to Derrick and the entire Wild Uganda team, we had an unforgettable trip. We couldnβt have asked for a better experience and would recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Uganda!

Outstanding safari through Kenya's unique national parks.
We had an amazing safari with our guide, Aaron.
He was incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and always seemed to know exactly where to find the animals, thanks to both his experience and his excellent network with fellow guides.
He was always dedicated, professional, and treated nature with great respect.
I can highly recommend going on a safari with him. Seeing the Big Five had always been a dream of mine, and thanks to Aaron, that dream came true.
Thank you so much for these unforgettable experiences in Kenya!
