Great communication, flexible to accommodate our travel plan, super awesome tour guide/driver.
I reached out to several safari companies and ultimately chose Balu Travel - it was a fantastic decision. Morris, the owner, was extremely responsive and communicated clearly throughout the planning process. I requested several hotel options, and he provided the best fit for my preferences. I also asked for a few minor changes to the itinerary, and he accommodated them without any issue.
Our guide and driver for the entire safari was Kesaine, a member of the Maasai tribe - and he was amazing. He shared so much knowledge about Maasai culture, the local tribes, and the wildlife. Kesaine was not only accommodating but went above and beyond to make our experience special. On our very first day in the Maasai Mara, we saw four of the Big Five!
Kesaine took us to remote spots that I doubt many other guides even know about - his deep familiarity with the land, as a Maasai, truly elevated our experience. For our picnic lunch, he brought us to a beautiful, secluded location that felt incredibly special.
I also highly recommend choosing a Land Cruiser over a minivan. There were several moments where we had to cross large puddles or streams, and I don’t think a minivan would have made it through.
Overall, I highly recommend Balu Travel - and if possible, request Kesaine as your guide. You won’t regret it!

Responsive and Responsible. Recommended to all!
Jungle Roam Safaris is an excellent choice for your tour in Kenya! I communicated via email with Vincent and Chesi, who were both extremely responsive and patiently addressed my queries. They also accommodated to my needs and ensured that we were well taken cared of during the tour.
My guide, Dennis, was extremely patient and helped with any difficulties or needs during the 5-day tour. I felt that we were in good hands throughout the time. Thank you for your patience and assistance throughout the 5 days! My friends and I were extremely lucky to have you as our guide!

Outstanding and amazing experience !!!!
We did a 4 days / 3 nights safari trip with Letsand his team. An outstanding and unforgetableexperience! The camp with the very cpmfortable tents with beds, matresses, duvets, blankets … plus a hot water-bottle every night … outstanding food prepared on abone fire from fresh ingredients for each meal … and of course the morning and afternoon safaris every day under the expert leadership in very clear English by Lets and Julius made these days just a series of unforgetable moments. A dream becoming true and excellent value for money.
We were a mixed group of very experienced safari travellers and beginners … and everyone enjoyed it very very very much!

Kikitu was fantastic
Kikitu not only gave the history and details of the safari but very joyfully took us to each and every corner of the savanna. We could see n take pics n videos comfortably. He made every effort to be connected with the safari radio n reach us to the location of the wild beast. Memorable Masai Mara safari.

A dream come true thanks to the wonderful Big Mama!! We could not have asked for a better company:)
We highly recommend Big Mama safaris! Me and my friend joined a group budget camping safari for 3days/2night through Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. We booked last min and the wonderful Big Mama could not have been more accommodating and sweet. Firstly, responded immediately with clear info, then came to our accommodation for an easy payment, briefing and gave us shirts! The safari went perfect in every sense. Pick-up, ideal accommodation, warm meals(most get cold lunchbox), insane safari sightings with out guide Godson and Big Mama even came to personally bring us back to our accommodation. Our experience was perfect truly! We recommend EVERYONE to book with her, she doesn’t just see you for you money but wants to care for you and make your experience the best it can be. Support the few women in this industry!

Unforgettable safari experience with Tanzania Explorer!
From the planning phase and when in Tanzania from start to finish, our trip with Tanzania Explorer was nothing else than exeptional. The team took care of every detail, allowing us to fully enjoy the magic of Tanzania without a single worry. Every lodge they booked for us was beautiful and comfortable, and perfectly located for exploring the parks and coming close to nature. What truly set them apart was their level of care and personal attention. When I unexpectedly became ill during the first days of the trip, the Tanzania Explorer team went above and beyond to check in on me, offer support and ensure I had everything I needed to recover and still making the most out of the safari experience.
Thanks to Tanzania Explorer, this trip became one of the most memorable adventures of our lives. If you are planning a trip and safarin in Tanzania, Tanzania explorer is the best partner you could ask for!

Excellent, knowledgeable about the safari. He made it great experience for all of us.
I highly recommend the safari tour; it delivered outstanding value. I was fortunate enough to see three of the 'Big Five,' including a close encounter with a leopard from approximately 30 feet. The elephants left a lasting impression with their majesty and beauty, and the giraffes were a remarkable sight with their inherent grace.

Organised and thoughtful to your interests
Loved the advice and was able to ask anything, always getting a clear response. Organised everything from the trek and after with pick up and drop off at our accomodation. Made it easy and hassle free we just had to be physically ready!
