They took care of us from the 1st inquiry through the end of the trip - Best trip ever!
Beyond the Plains was detailed and responsive from 1st inquiry through the final day of our trip. They listened to our desires and not only fulfilled them, but delivered more than we had dreamed - all within our budget.
Maurine not only took care of all of our arrangements, she also checked on us throughout our 11 day trip. She would ensure we knew transfer and excursion arrangements. If we had questions before or during our trip - she responded quickly and effectively.
Our Guide, Ronnie was an all star! He asked for our wildlife priorities and was able to deliver through experience and some networking. Its apparent he loves his job and well known among the locations we visited.
This was not our 1st safari, but our 1st time using Beyond the Plains. I wish I would have found them sooner. They are the best!!

Very helpful, kind and everything was organised very well.
We booked 5 days Safari at Super Eagles travel and tours. It was our first expirience with this kind of vacation.
From beginning, the communication with Brian was excelent - responding 24/7 on all questions, he helped us also with accomodation before and after safari.
When we arrived, everybody was helpfull and kind.
Our guide for first 3 days was Kenedy. He took us everywhere he could, showed us the best places and told us very much information about the parks, the animals and about Kenya’s culture. Also he is very funny and we laughted a lot. He did his best for us - he communicated with others to find rare animals, so we can see them all. Thanks to him we saw the Big five!
The rest of our safari we was with Gilbert. He was also very kind, fun and helpful.
When you are not sure abou anything, guides will help you everytime. Accomodation during the safari was really good, also the food.
We would definitelly recommend this agency, we loved our experience!

Amazing 11 day mid range Serengeti Great Migration-Kilimanjaro
We did the 8 day mid range serengeti great migration as a private safari for our group of 5. We added : an extra day of rest on arrival, 1 extra day in western serengeti and 1 extra day hiking on Mt Kilimanjaro for a total of 11 days. Meru Slopes added the extra days at reasonable charge and no extra inconvenience to us.
The trip was amazing. The great migration was a main priority, and our guide Santaely put us in the middle of the migration. Amazing. We saw the big 5. The wildlife viewing exceeded our expectations. Everything and more on our list. Accommodations and service and food were excellent, with a hot shower and a cold beer every evening. The cleanliness of the restrooms/ toilets throughout the trip surpassed all the ladies' hopes for their trip to the Serengeti wilderness. Our guide Suma, for the Kilimanjaro day hike was great, with his open conversation on life and Tanzania. He'd been to the summit +300 times. Transport to/from airport was great. No one in our group got sick. Mosquito nets were provided for our memory foam matress beds, but I only saw 2 mosquitos the whole trip.
The payment method of 30% bank draft deposit to hold reservation, the balance paid by credit card just before safari departure went without a flaw just as described by our Meru Slopes agent, Shadrack. The whole trip was excellent. We went at the end of low season and we're glad for the much reduced safari jeep numbers.
Incredible trip!

Don’t miss out! Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris are simply the BEST!
This was an absolutely amazing trip! We have dreamed of seeing the Great Migration for so long, and Meru Slopes Tours & Safaris organized a trip for our group of 5 (including my 16-yr old son) that exceeded our expectations! Shadrack did an excellent job by email helping us customize our safari to meet our needs and desires. The payment worked out just as they described. From airport pickup to daily tours to luxurious lodgings and friendly staff to our stellar safari guide (Santaely) to exquisite food and clean bathrooms everywhere - all was so well organized. Santaely took such good care of us and was very passionate about his job of guiding us to see the most animals (up so close to the jeep!) and, yes, the Big 5 and the Great Migration, which was incredible to see in real life! Santaely was a wealth of knowledge, and we felt that he truly cared about us, our safari, the animals, the ecology, and the Tanzanian culture. He worked well with the other guides in the Serengeti to help find the animals! This safari could not have been more perfect. We felt so welcomed by everyone. We ended with a fairly easy day hike with our driver, Joseph, and Suma (who had climbed Kilimanjaro over 300 times - incredible knowledge of the mountain, flora and fauna).
We left Tanzania with our hearts full, telling all our friends and family to take the time to do this unforgettable trip. Thank you, Meru Slopes, for all that you do!

8-Day Safari with an outstanding guide
We had an amazing 8-day safari with Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris. Everything was well organized, communication was great, and the trip ran smoothly from start to finish. Our guide, Peter Kapino, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife and could quickly spot and identify animals while sharing interesting facts and stories about them and the landscape. He was also kind, patient, and made sure we had the best experience every day. We saw so many incredible animals, and this was a trip we’ll never forget. I highly recommend Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris, especially Peter Kapino, to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Expert guides, exceptional service, unforgettable wildlife experiences, and genuine hospitality.
Our experience with Red Safari in Kruger National Park was nothing short of incredible! From the moment our adventure began until our final game drive, everything was exceptionally well organized, professional, and exceeded our expectations.
A huge thank you to our amazing tour guide (Mr.Jaco), who truly made this trip unforgettable. His passion for wildlife, deep knowledge of the park, and ability to spot animals that we would have completely missed were absolutely remarkable. Every drive was educational, exciting, and filled with fascinating facts about the animals, birds, plants, and the unique ecosystem of Kruger National Park. You could tell he genuinely loves what he does, and his enthusiasm made every moment even more enjoyable.
Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable, but he was also kind, patient, friendly, and always made sure everyone was comfortable and having the best possible experience. He answered every question with enthusiasm and shared stories that brought the African bush to life. His experience and sharp eye helped us enjoy incredible wildlife sightings that we’ll remember forever.
The entire Red Safari team provided outstanding service throughout our stay. The accommodations, meals, transportation, and daily activities were all well planned, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy every moment. Every sunrise game drive, sunset, and evening under the African sky created memories that will last a lifetime.
If you’re looking for an authentic, exciting, and unforgettable safari experience in Kruger National Park, I cannot recommend Red Safari enough. Whether it’s your first safari or your tenth, they know exactly how to make your trip special.
Thank you, Red Safari, for giving us memories we’ll treasure forever. We leave with full hearts, thousands of amazing photos, and a deep appreciation for the beauty of Kruger National Park. We can’t wait to return! The Patel Family.

Awesome Experience
We traveled with our two children (ages 8 and 12) and Spot Kenya Safaris made this the trip of a lifetime. From the moment we landed in Nairobi, a representative was there to greet us with warm smiles and a detailed briefing. Our 8-seater safari van was immaculate, and the kids were thrilled that everyone got a guaranteed window seat, no fighting over views! Our guide, James, was incredibly patient with the children, teaching them to identify the Big Five. Watching a leopard lounge in a tree in the Masai Mara was unforgettable. We also stopped at Lake Nakuru, and my daughter still talks about the "pink carpet" of flamingos. Knowing they are KATO bonded gave us real peace of mind when booking from abroad. Highly recommended for families!"

Bavuma is handson with our trip
My African safari was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Every part of the trip felt thoughtfully planned and personalized to my interests, making it much more than just a vacation— big thanks to Joshua! The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, sharing fascinating insights about the wildlife and local culture while ensuring every game drive was exciting and memorable. Our guide in Kenya, Ian, was very fluent in english and whatever i ask him about the wildlife in Masai Mara, he has very satisfying answers and has a very keen eye in spotting animals. Ludo, our guide in Serengeti is friendly and somewhat funny. He makes the dusty and bumpy road bearable. Seeing animals in their natural habitat was breathtaking, and each day brought new adventures and unforgettable moments. The accommodations were comfortable, the hospitality was exceptional, and the attention to detail made the entire journey seamless. We, too, explored and enjoyed the beautiful zanzibar beaches and had a very relaxing day or two. I returned home with amazing memories, stunning photos, and a deeper appreciation for Africa's incredible landscapes and wildlife. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an authentic, unique, and unforgettable adventure. A once in a lifetime trip anyone should have!

Our guide, Martin, made our experience truly special
The guides are great, and the agency is wonderful—reliable and with good food
Linus was the best Safari guide you could ask for
Rocktrek Safari was the best experience ever. We had the best Safari guide and driver named Linus. He met every expectation and became a trusted friend we will now have forever.
