Feel the wild animals in Africa.
There was no major difficulty in preparing for my first trip to Africa with sufficient advance guidance from this travel agency.
The safari was very informative with Peter's ample explanation.
The hotel restaurant was well served without any problems for Koreans to eat.

Friendly people, beautiful nature, tourism still in its beginning, rather expensive though
We did a 6 day safari in Nyerere National Park and Mikumi NP. Very recommendable, as these are not ovrcrowded. One jeep close to many animals, not the other way around. Mafia island is a perfect place to relax and go diving, after a safari.

Timo worked very hard to make sure we had a great trip.
I’m a solo Australian traveler. I did the 3 day safari in Massai Mara.
Timo was our driver. He did a great job.
A truly amazing experience.

We are very happy with the service and attention from Eleanor Roberts, the itinerary was very clear, the service of the guides and quality of the cars was really good as well. The hotels booked were amazing despite the short timeframe planning the trip.
I would recommend Wayfarer Travel.

Adventure awaits…
It was fantastic to explore Chobe and Victoria Falls with MOTE. Not only did it make transcending borders easier, but it helped to have a set program every day. The boat trips were a highlight at sunset.

Exceeded my expectations
I was a bit nervous going with a local operator for my first safari in Tanzania - particularly with respect to their ability to manage the logistics of adding me to a group since I was traveling solo and of handling ferrying me from and to my home base in Moshi (rather than Arusha). KBSC however exceeded my expectations overall. My trip consisted of a private walking safari in Arusha National Park followed by a 4-day conventional group game drive through the "northern circuit" parks. Both parts were well run, with notably an excellent guide for the game drive, one who had the knowledge and experience to not "follow the herd" - i.e. other safari vehicles - when looking for game viewing opportunities, and we were treated to all that we could want, including black rhinos, leopard and myriad others. He also had great answers to all our questions about local flora, culture, etc. The tents and lodges were we stayed were very basic but adequate, and the food a bit bland and monotonous (lots of chicken and rice...), but maybe that was to be expected for a "budget" safari. Transportation logistics were flawless. Overall, I feel comfortable recommending this company for your safari needs.

Great Value for an amazing trek
We wanted to trek up Mt Kenya and Dennsland made it happen, with many experiences on the way that made it an authentic Kenyan experience. Organizing the trip over email and WhatsApp was easy. Our guide Kim and 2 porters Jeff and Daniel were great, very friendly, knowledgeable and very accommodating. The scenery and the experience of seeing the sunrise on top of Mt Kenya is spectacular and totally worth the effort. I would totally recommend Dennsland Trekking if you want to do Mt Kenya on a budget. They definitely provided value for the cost

Lovely Safari Experience
I chose to book with Parrot Safaris because communications were super quick and helpful at all times. Joseph's attention to his clients is just perfect. This expectation I had also for the whole tour. Above all, that the driver, who is with us for 5 days, is explaining the dayli routine, or gives advices regarding what to bring (eg bring a warm jacket, take care on the food in the car --> monkeys, etc.); that was missing. We furthermore had to please every day for our bottle of water. We also did the Tansania part (with the partner 7 Wonders) and can compare. There, the guides explained the day routine every day, the bottle of water was already on the seat and whenever we stopped, they gave us information on route about cultur and natur. For me, the most important with such a travel is the group and the driver...
Accomondations were all good, with one Exception --> Jambo Mara Lodge in Maasai Mara. Food is not good and it is to far away from the animals due to the dry Maasai Mara. The car in Kenya was very old, slowly and very loud. And you sit a very long time in the car. :-) Communication about the Gorge in Hells gate should be improved (Gorge is closed and you have to pay extra for a short walk to a view point and hot springs - but don't miss it!). My favourite was Nakuru NP, Mount Longonot hike and for sure the Balloon Ride within Maasai Mara, Serengeti NP and Ngorongo Crater. Wonderful Experience!

This was my first time using a tour operator and they were professional.
Requested a breakdown of available vehicles and pricing and was offered one in a timely manner. With this I was able to budget my trip. The vehicle and driver provided were safe and we were able to accomplish our goals effectively.

Nice Safari
It was a long drive from the port to Mikumi Game park but it gives you the ability to really see how the locals live. At one point, the road was closed for a traveling dignitary. We got out to stretch and met a Maasai man that had walked about 10 miles to find a place for his cattle to graze (drought making it tough). Priceless experience
