Awesome experience 👏
We had an extraordinary safari experience with Caleb! He is an exceptionally warm, welcoming, and helpful guide who goes above and beyond for his guests. His driving is remarkably smooth and highly skilled across tough landscapes. On top of that, his expert instincts for tracking wildlife are second to none—he knew exactly where to position us for the best views and photo opportunities. I highly recommend Caleb to anyone looking for a world-class safari!

Wonderful experience wonderful guide!!
If you're planning a safari, you have to book with Caleb! He is wonderfully friendly, super helpful, and made our trip completely stress-free. His driving skills are top-notch—navigating rugged terrain smoothly and comfortably. Most impressively, Caleb has an incredible eye for spotting and tracking wildlife that we would have totally missed on our own. Thanks to him, we had front-row seats to unforgettable animal sightings. 10/10 recommendation to all my friends!

nice
Overall the travel experience was fantastic. Our guide was amazing and proactive during the safari. The hotels we stayed at every night were great too — no disappointments at all.

Excellent organisation, amazing wildlife knowledge, and a guide who truly loves what he does.
TL;DR: We can fully recommend The Ozon Light Tours. We booked the 6 Day Luxury Lifetime Experience and would absolutely do it again. And if you really, really, really want to learn something about the animals and not just see them, Denis is your man.
The preparation before the safari was super easy from the beginning. Communication, adjustments and special requests were all handled via WhatsApp. Clinton always replied quickly and organising everything was very straightforward.
The pickup at JRO airport also worked perfectly. Our driver was already waiting with a sign with our names on it and took us to our hotel in Arusha.
The next morning our guide Denis picked us up with the Toyota Land Cruiser and our safari started with Tarangire National Park. The car was great for a private safari. Plenty of space, comfortable and we had it completely to ourselves.
Already on the first day it became clear that Denis does not just have the normal knowledge you would expect from a safari guide. Animals are genuinely his passion. It was sometimes crazy how much he could tell us about individual animals, their behaviour and how everything in nature is connected. National Geographic should probably give him a call.
In the Serengeti we also realised just how ridiculously good his eyes are. Denis spotted animals somewhere in trees or bushes while we were still searching for another five minutes, even after he had already explained exactly where to look.
That was also one of the reasons we managed to see two leopards and two cheetahs. Without him, we probably would have driven straight past them. A good guide makes a massive difference on a safari, and Denis definitely did for us.
One thing we would personally do differently next time is the route at the beginning. Our flight arrived at Kilimanjaro at 1:30 in the morning. We then went to the hotel in Arusha and, because our airline had changed the flight schedule, we ended up having a full day there. Originally it would only have been around half a day.
From our personal point of view, we would skip Arusha completely next time if timing and logistics allow it. After getting some sleep, we would rather drive the extra few hours towards Lake Manyara and stay there. That way the actual safari starts directly in the region the next morning.
This is not criticism of The Ozon Light Tours at all, just something we would change in our own planning next time.

An Exceptional Guide!!!
We had an incredible safari experience with Wilfred, exploring Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru National Park, and the Masai Mara.
Wilfred was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and an exceptional guide. He made sure we spotted all of the Big Five, along with so many other amazing animals along the way. His deep knowledge of wildlife, animal behaviour, and even the plants made the journey not only exciting but also truly educational.
But beyond being a wonderful guide, we also made a really good friend in Wilfred. He was funny, easygoing, and always made us feel comfortable, making the entire trip even more enjoyable.
If you’re planning a safari in Kenya, we highly recommend Wilfred. Thank you, Wilfred, for an unforgettable adventure and for giving us so many wonderful memories to take home!

Our Safari Soles tour operator was absolutely exceptional
Our Tanzania safari was truly a dream come true for my wife and I, my brother in law and sister in law. From the very beginning, the communication with our tour operator was excellent. They were always responsive, helpful, and made us feel comfortable knowing everything was being taken care of. Throughout the entire trip, the service was outstanding, and our guide (Kennedy) was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely cared about making our experience special. Everything was organized and reliable, and we felt the trip was an incredible value for the money. The safari itself was beyond anything we could have imagined—you must add the hot air balloon ride as it another world drifting above the Serengeti. The wildlife, the scenery, the people, and the experiences will stay with us for the rest of our lives. We have traveled to many amazing places, but this safari was truly one of the most unforgettable adventures we have ever shared. We would highly recommend this Safari Soles to anyone looking to experience the magic of Tanzania!

A reliable and caring tour operator that made our safari experience truly unforgettable.
We had a wonderful safari with Julia! He was very responsible, patient and knowledgeable throughout the whole trip. Thanks to him, we were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five, which was definitely one of the highlights of our Kenya trip.
What we appreciated most was how patient and thoughtful he was. Some of our group members don’t speak English, but Julia always took the time to use a translator and explain what we were seeing. He never seemed rushed and always made sure everyone understood and was enjoying the experience.
He was also very considerate of our feelings and comfort during the trip. You could really tell that he cared about giving us a great experience, rather than simply finishing the itinerary.
Thank you, Julia, for making our safari such a memorable experience. We really appreciate all your help and would definitely recommend him to anyone planning a safari in Kenya! 🦁🐘🦒

Perfectly Planed and executed safari
Mountain warriors taylored the Safari to our needs and selected really nice Hotels and tented camps. Our Guide Mali was very experienced and new all the parks and a lot of interesting facts about the nature and the animals. We love his relaxed way of showing us the nature. We had the best time and would absolutely recommend.

Unforgettable Honeymoon Safari in Kenya
We had such an amazing safari experience and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better tour operator or guide!
Everything was organized really well from beginning to end and we always felt taken care of. The itinerary was great, the drives went smoothly and the whole experience felt very easy and stress-free for us.
We were incredibly lucky and managed to see all of the Big Five! We also saw cheetahs twice, which was so special, as well as so many other beautiful animals including zebras, giraffes, hyenas, wildebeest, hippos, gazelles, antelopes, warthogs, baboons, ostriches and so many more. Every game drive felt completely different and there was always something new to see.
A huge part of what made the trip so special was our guide, Kelvin Ngamia. He was honestly so much more than just a driver. He was our guide, wildlife spotter, adviser, storyteller, photographer and basically our go-to person for everything during the safari. He had so much knowledge about the animals and the parks and was always happy to answer our endless questions.
He was also incredibly patient and always made an effort to get us into the best possible position to see the animals and take photos and videos. He knew when to wait, where to look and how to make every game drive exciting. We always felt safe and comfortable with him and he was such a kind and easy person to spend the long drives with.
This safari was part of our honeymoon and it ended up being one of the most unforgettable experiences. Seeing so much wildlife in the Maasai Mara and Amboseli was already a dream, but having such a great guide made it even better.
Highly recommend!!
