★★★★★ Fantastic safari experience!
What a wonderful day! Our guide, Moloko, was absolutely brilliant. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the animals and their behaviour, as well as being friendly, approachable and easy to talk to.
The guides communicated really well with one another, which meant we had some extraordinary sightings. We saw giraffes, rhinos, a cheetah, a lion, hippos, crocodiles, kudu, impala, wildebeest and, best of all, masses of elephants, including lots of babies!
The whole experience was very well organised. The transfer from Johannesburg was straightforward, with convenient hotel pickup and drop-off, and the lunch was excellent too.
I couldn't have asked for a better safari experience. A truly memorable day, and I would thoroughly recommend it!

Great trip organiser
For the 7 day trip they put us in a fun group with people who booked through other agencies and somehow sourced Albert, who was an absolutely fantastic driver and guide. Supremely knowledgeable on logistics and finding all animals and an extremely good driver to boot.
We were lucky enough to see all big5 in the first 2.5 hours in Masai Mara; the other parks on the itinerary were just the icing on the cake.

Hell's Gate and Olkaria Geothermal Spa
This was not the first time using Offbeat Experiences. As usual their charges were reasonable and we still got quality services. Communication was timely and they stuck to the itinerary. In case of any delays or changes, Judy communicated on time.
After touring Hell's Gate and watching the animals, a swim in the natural spa was quite welcome. The icing on the cake? Real icing on a cake... We got to celebrate August babies courtesy of the tour company with a cake and other goodies.
Highly recommended!

Unforgettable safari
We have just completed a wonderful 5-day (6-night) safari in Tanzania and everything was absolutely flawless. A special shout-out goes to our guide, Bakari: professional, friendly, an extremely skilled driver, and with an extraordinary eye for spotting wildlife.
Thanks to Bakari, we managed to see all of the Big Five. He always positioned the jeep in the best spot for us to take amazing photos, while explaining every detail about the animals and local culture.
Excellent tour organization, fantastic lodges, and top-tier attention to our dietary needs (celiac disease / gluten-free). We highly recommend this agency and strongly suggest asking for Bakari as your guide!

unforgettable
Once again experience Tanzania and Kenya! With our family (9 people, 11 – 85 years) we traveled from Nairobi to the Masai Mara, then on to the northern and central Serengeti. The eco-camps "Mtito Safari Camp" (Masai Mara), "Mara Kati Kati Tented Camp" (North Serengeti), "The Whisper Serengeti" (Central Serengeti) and "Ang'ata Ngorongoro Camp" (Ngorongoro) met more than our expectations. Wonderful locations in the middle of the wilderness, friendly staff, small and sustainable. Although we grandparents have already traveled to 10 countries in East and Southern Africa, the very good guides (especially David, Isaak and Andrew) were able to surprise us again and again. The round trip continued to Manyara and Tarangire NP, and finally to the Amboseli before we ended our tour in Nairobi. Thank you for an unforgettable two-weeks experience with our whole family!

Quality level service at an excellent price!
From the first connect with Sheldon, I knew we were going to Parker with Amafrick getaways. Sheldon really designed a personalised offer based on our wishes and with a response rate that was incredibly fast. The hotel selections were amazing compared to other suppliers for that price. And with Ochieng, we received a guide for 6 days that knew everything about the parks and Kenia. Family has had an unforgettable vacation thanks to Amafrick Getaways.

Enchanting Safari
We saw countless animals, beautiful landscapes and amazing sunsets. Through the entire safari, we had an experienced guide (Marius). Knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. The whole safari was perfectly planned and organized by Pepi Kern, down to the last detail. We can highly recommend it. Ask for stays at Desert Hills (Glamping), Etosha Oberland Lodge, Onguma Bushcamp, and Okonjima Plains Camp (leopard tracking!). And at Swakopmund for Guesthouse Al Mare. This safari will remain unforgettable for us.

Top notch organization and wonderful guide!
We recently wrapped up a 10-day Kenyan safari organized by Amafrick Getaways, and we could not be happier with how smoothly and wonderfully everything went.
From start to finish, the trip was packed with incredible safari fun and seamless organization. Amafrick perfectly mapped out our route through Kenya's most beautiful landscapes. We experienced the breathtaking wildlife of the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli, and Tsavo West, before wrapping up our adventure with a perfectly relaxing stay at Diani Beach.
The accommodations they selected throughout the journey were top-notch—truly qualitative lodges that offered amazing comfort, great food, and stunning views right in the heart of nature.
Also some last minute changes during the trip were handled with great care (snorkeling trip @ Diani and scheduling another trein from Nairobi)
The absolute highlight of our trip, however, was our truly outstanding guide, Osheng. He was phenomenal!
His deep knowledge of the wildlife and water birds, sharp spotting eyes, and warm personality made every game drive an absolute joy.
He went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience, and he was incredibly kind and caring when one of our daughters was not feeling well. Very important for this mommy bear :-)
If you are planning a trip to Kenya, look no further. Highly recommend Amafrick Getaways.
