Excellent fir responsiveness to queries , always available when we were there, great lodges chosen
Jonas and his team were just tremendous - really
made us feel welcome in their country. Our driver / guide JJ was very knowledgeable and pointed out many animals and birds to us. Five hours watching the wildebeest migration was amazing. Accommodation chosen was all lovely. We especially enjoyed Anantya Serengeti - we arrived late and the prepared a 5* dinner for us.
Jonas was very responsive to all our queries during the planning process and ensured we were comfortable about visas, dietary needs etc. Definitely would book again with Tansafari

Knowledgeable, friendly, polite & truly cared about making the trip enjoyable for everyone!
We found Savannah Adventures to be very professional & the best at offering adventurous & unique tours at economical prices. They always arrived early for all our tours & prepared for the day! All the tours we took (helicopter, train, boat & land safaris) were outstanding, beautiful & exciting & we have the pictures to prove it! We look forward to booking more tours with them in the future!

We thought our guide did an outstanding job with what he had to work with.
When we reached out to Big Apes Africa - the itinerary sent over was very professional-like. However, it was never communicated with us that we needed our e-visa before arriving to the airport. With hours to spare and not enough time - we reached out to say we needed to cancel our booking and then, miraculously for an additional charge, we got an expedited visa.
With that out of the way, we loved the chimpanzee and gorilla trekking experiences. We do want to make others aware that the drive times were not communicated clearly and we spent 7-9 hours traveling each of our 4 days.
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were provided, however, one of the day days our driver got lost (no GPS) and we arrived to our lodge at 10 PM and chose to skip dinner. All in all, we would recommend, but would be interested to see what a longer experience.

Prompt communication and accommodating service
We had an amazing 7-day safari experience. Our guide Kulet had a sharp eye and always managed to find the best views and wildlife moments. Everything was well-organized, and communication was smooth, Peter replied almost instantly every time. Great value for money. Highly recommended!

If You’re Planning a Safari, Stay at Kapama
We booked our safari through MoAfrika Tours because it looked reliable. It arranged both our stay at Kapama River Lodge and the round-trip van transportation from Johannesburg. The person who assisted us was very communicative, trustworthy, and helped us choose the trip we wanted within our budget.
That said, the transportation to and from Kapama was crowded and a bit uncomfortable. It definitely didn’t compare to the incredible experience we had once we arrived.
Kapama River Lodge was the highlight of our entire trip. Every single dollar paid is worth it just for the level of service and the unforgettable experience Kapama offers. The reserve is beautifully maintained without interfering with the natural lives of the animals. Game drives were punctual, and the staff thought of every detail — from warm blankets and heat sources on cold mornings to coffee and snacks mid-drive. They truly care about your comfort and wellbeing.
We were lucky to be taken care of by Happiness, Fanie, Valecia, and Katherine — without them, our stay wouldn’t have been the same. Their warmth, knowledge, and attention to detail made our time in Kapama absolutely magical.
We’re vegan, and not once did we feel like a burden. Every meal and snack came with plant-based alternatives, prepared with care and variety. If you have dietary restrictions, rest assured: they’ve got you covered.
If there’s one thing to take away from this review, it’s this: stay at Kapama. It’s truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience — not just for the wildlife, but for the people who make it so special.

Great 8-day Safari in Kenya!
We had a great time in Kenya and were lucky enough to experience great wildlife encounters!!
Everything was well organized, we got the chance to upgrade to a Landrover and were happy we did that. We were able to open the sides and thus see very well, but the roads were really dusty, so definitely bring a mask! (And a warm jacket as the wind can be very cold). It would have been handy to know beforehand that masks are needed.
Our first accommodation was overbooked so they took us to another one. Our guide had to drive us every morning and evening to the other accommodation to eat. The food overall, especially the lunches, were quite simple. We were “warned” that the lunches are not good, but that the guide would stop at a shop on the way so we can buy some snacks. Unfortunately we didn’t stop at a shop on the way to Maasai Mara (only at our lunch spot but there snacks were really expensive) which would have been nice (as the lunches were indeed not the best and they struggled a bit to remember and pack the proper dietary restrictions as asked).
Our guide was very nice and tried his best to give us great animal encounters and we got to see the a Big 5, the wilderbeast crossing through the river and even a cheetah family on the hunt! Sometimes I would have loved to get more information about the animals or more background info about the parks etc., but even when asking specific questions we didn’t always get thorough answers.
Overall, we had a very great experience and got good value for our money.

Good overall, small hiccups with organisation and miscommunication
Very good communication from beginning of booking process until the end of the trip and responsive during the trip. Put us in contact with good drivers and companies for the various activities we undertook (Mt Kilimanjaro, Amboseli safari, markets, etc). There were a couple events of miscommunication between eta and other companies which led to us having to mediate between them to resolve issues.
Was not enough to dampen overall experience but could have done without the unnecessary stress from these incidents.
