Unreliable
From personal experience I recommend that you dont book with Afrishare. I don't want this to happen to anyone else. Be cautious when booking with this provider Afrishare as the company owner, Ibrahim is unfortunately running a really poor business.
We booked a five day tour with him, where 2 of the 5 days the car broke down. The point of a safari is to ensure that the car takes you comfortably from point A to point B. During the first breakdown we had to jump into another tour companies vehicle and join another family for one full day and then additionally on the second incident we had to spend half the day waiting for the car to be fixed. On top of all this the itinerary for the safari was poorly planned. We did not get enough time to appropriately see the national parks, for example at the Ndutu National Park we drove there, slept and left straight away the next morning. Not allowing us to explore for animals there. It merely felt like a stop over and notnwhat was sold to us to see animals. If he was an honest business, he would understand what he put us through, especially considering that this was an anniversary trip that we had organized together and provide us a reasonable compensation. However, he was only willing to compensate for a permit, not the two days we had lost.
Ibrahim went back and forth with us and made some absurd comments on his lack of responsibility for giving us a very old rusted and clearly unfunctional car. I advise to any future Safari clients. Please do not book with him!!
Lastly one clear point I want to make is that our guide, Deo, was absolutely phenomenal in providing us such an amazing service and making sure that we were comfortable even in these difficult situations! He did his very best to make sure that he could give us the best tour with the limited time given with the car situation. If it was not for Deo, we would have canceled the trip on our 3rd day when the car broke down again with 2 new issues.

Genuinely caring, responsive and utterly dependable in every situation.
Above and Beyond – Seamless, Personal, Exceptional Service
Choosing Horizon Hunt Safaris was the best decision I made for my Kenya safari.
From the outset, she really listened to my specific requirements. As a solo traveller prone to motion sickness, I wanted guaranteed 4x4 vehicles, a window seat on game drives, and the SGR train instead of long road transfers where possible. I also hoped for “armchair safari” opportunities at lodges and shared game drives so I could meet other travellers. Every one of those preferences was thoughtfully accommodated, and her suggestions suited me perfectly.
Communication was always fast, clear and reassuring. I felt supported before I even arrived in Kenya.
What truly sets her apart is how she handles real situations. At Nairobi’s SGR station she personally guided me through the very thorough security process and calmly resolved an issue that could have been stressful. When I became unwell, she immediately advised me, coordinated with my driver and ensured I was treated within minutes — efficiently, without hassle and without unnecessary expense.
One lodge did not initially meet expectations, but she addressed it immediately and arranged an extraordinary upgrade that far exceeded what I could have arranged myself.
Throughout the trip I felt safe, supported and genuinely cared for. The logistics ran smoothly, the wildlife experiences were extraordinary, and the level of personal attention was exceptional.
I would recommend Horizon Hunt Safaris without hesitation, especially to solo travellers who want both adventure and complete peace of mind.

They are a group of professional, reliable and trustworthy people.
After a comparison that lasted for two months, I chose Lappet faced safaris from among 8 local tour agencies. The main reasons are as follows:
1. Prices are transparent and open.I conducted a search on the internet and after verification, all the information was correct. There was no false reporting of prices.
2. The planning of the travel route is very scientific. Taking a small plane from the central Serengeti to Zanzibar is an excellent choice.No waste of time.
3. Based on my budget, select an accommodation for me.After my experience, I was very satisfied with all these hotels. They are a very cost-effective choice.
4. They have professional guides.The guide Mmary, he took into account everything for me. While showing me many animals and their behaviors, he also avoided risks and ensured our safety.
5. Throughout the entire process of travel, including the early, middle and final stages, Lappet provide comprehensive care for us.

Reliable, punctual and professional — a seamless and unforgettable safari experience.
I booked a one-day safari to Mikumi National Park on a Friday for the following Saturday, and everything was perfectly organized and executed exactly as agreed.
They arranged a driver to pick me up at my hotel at 7:00 AM and take me to the Dar es Salaam train station. When I arrived at Morogoro station, another driver was already waiting to take me to Mikumi National Park. The entire logistics process was smooth, punctual, and stress-free.
The safari itself was amazing. The guide was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife in the park and clearly passionate about his work. He took the time to stop frequently, explain the different species, and share interesting information about the animals and their behavior.
Around 5:00 PM, the safari ended and I was driven back to Morogoro train station. Upon arriving in Dar es Salaam, another driver was waiting to take me back to my hotel.
I wish I had more time for a longer safari, but even with just a few hours in the park, I was able to see all the animals I had hoped to see — and even more.
To sum up, I highly recommend Kihindo Tours and Safaris for their professionalism, organization, and excellent service.

Excellent services, Reliable Company
We visited Kenya for the December holiday with my wife. We were met by our guide John at Tamarind Hotel in Nairobi where our excellent safari had just began. Having such a knowledgeable and friendly guide just added to our experience. We travelled to the Masai Mara arriving at the Sarova Mara camp which was very relaxing and comfortable with great staff.
We had 2 days Safari there seeing some beautiful animals lions,Cheetah, Elephant, Hippos,Warthogs, Hyenas and lots more. We then travelled to Lake Nakuru staying at the Sarova Lion Hill Lodge and on our game drives managed to see Rhinos, Lions, Baboons and lots of bird life.
We would highly recommend this package and taking the option of a private Land Cruiser. Booking a group safari might sometimes turn out not fun since there's no flexibility at all. John was very attentive and he played a big role to the success of our trip. My wife and I really enjoyed we will definitely come back again.
Thank you JACMIYA SAFARIS for making our safari a success!

fabulous and comfortable
Very safe and peaceful trip. All the stays during the trip were comfortable, decent, and well arranged. Food was fairly good considering the wild and undeveloped areas. The guide was nice and eager to find different animals in the park. Their arrangements and safari will be far beyond what you’d expect!!!

Great experience
I made a safari with Go Serengeti African Tours including Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongore with a group, total 13 pax. My opinion with one word - awesome!!! Thanks to the whole team: Antonia from the head office - great customer service with immediate reaction on my questions; Our guides Ali & Asad - thank you guys, you made our safari! The whole organization was out of any expectations. The camps and the lodges were carefully selected (we stayed at Suricata Boma Lodge & Misako Serengeti Luxury Camp) and provide excellent facilities.
