Amazing and genuine people
We had an amazing experience! Everything was very well organised, communication was excellent, and we encountered no problems at all. Our guides were fantastic, always welcoming us with a smile and doing their best to make sure we had the best possible experience.
We enjoyed a lovely trek on Morogoro Mountain followed by two days of safari, which were truly unforgettable. It was incredible to see so many animals in their natural habitat. What made the experience even more special was that our guide, Osmane, did not simply focus on finding animals but also took the time to share interesting insights about the wildlife, plants, and nature around us. This made the safari both exciting and educational.
A big thank you to the whole team and especially our guides for their kindness, professionalism, and enthusiasm. We would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure in Tanzania!

Amazing and thoughtful team providing a great Safari!
Our safari to Mikumi and Ruaha National Parks was truly an incredible experience from start to finish. Everything was exceptionally well organized, making the entire trip smooth, enjoyable, and stress-free. The food throughout the safari was delicious, the accommodations were excellent, and the whole package offered fantastic value for money.
A special mention goes to Ruaha Hilltop Hotel which was the standout accommodation of the trip. The location, amazing views, and hospitality made it a memorable place to stay and the perfect base for exploring Ruaha. Be prepared for a long travel day between Mukumi and Ruaha but the views, stops and interesting surroundings help it fly by.
We were also extremely fortunate to have Osmane as our guide. His knowledge of the parks, wildlife, and local environment was outstanding, and he was always thoughtful and attentive to our needs. His enthusiasm and expertise greatly enhanced our safari experience. Our driver, Mr. Peter, was equally wonderful and kind, professional, and always making us feel safe and comfortable throughout the journey (plus a funny guy)
The team also went above and beyond to accommodate a special request we had, which was greatly appreciated making the trip very memorable. Shout out also to Idris who was responsive over WhatsApp and helped organise/ coordinate!
The wildlife viewing exceeded all expectations. We saw an incredible variety of animals, and some of our most memorable moments included very close encounters with lions and elephants
I would highly recommend this safari to anyone considering a visit to Mikumi and Ruaha. Having also the transfers at the start and end helped with the chaos at the stations!
5 stars!

From dental outreach to an amazing Kenya safari.
This was my second trip to Kenya with Safari N Smiles, and this time I wanted to spend a few extra days exploring the country.
Nesh Tours helped organize our safari, and the entire experience was excellent.
Joan coordinated the itinerary and hotel reservations. We had several people traveling together with slightly different schedules, so I know it wasn't the easiest group to organize.
Joseph helped with photography during the trip, and some of the pictures he captured are honestly among my favorites from Kenya.
Brian was our driver for the safari portion and did an excellent job. We visited Amboseli and Maasai Mara, both completely different experiences. Amboseli had beautiful elephant sightings, while Maasai Mara was incredible for wildlife.
What makes these trips special for me is the combination of giving back through Safari N Smiles and then getting to experience Kenya as a traveler. I came home with great memories and a much deeper appreciation for the country.

Fantastic, well organised safari
From being picked up from our Villa to being dropped back everything worked very well. Everyone who assisted on our day was polite and courteous particularly our guide and driver. We saw all sorts of animals including lions, elephants, buffalo and giraffes. Thoroughly recommended.

It was easy to book and the operator was reachable at all times.
The communication was good, we got a fast repy for every question.
The tour was worth the money, the acommodations were simple, but had all we need, the staff was friendly in all camps.
We were surprised how much wildlife we got to see, especially in the massai mara.
Our driver Joseph was very attentive and helpful. He got us the best view of every sighting.
We would do the tour like this again. It is a really good option if you are satisfied with simple acommodations.
We would recommend the morning walk from the Nyati Safari Camp.

Wonderful Trip
We had an amazing safari experience! Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish, and the whole trip went smoothly. We got to see so many incredible animals and really enjoyed every moment of it.
A special thank you to Yona, who was absolutely wonderful! She was always available before the trip, answered all our questions and made sure we felt well informed and prepared.
Overall, it was an unforgettable experience and we would definitely recommend this safari to anyone visiting Tanzania!

Unforgettable Safari Experience!!
We had the most amazing 4 day tour with Josh Dreamland Safari. Danford, our guide, has over 20 years experience and it showed! Not only did we see each of the big 5 up close and personal, but we learned so much about the animals! If you’re thinking of going on a safari holiday- do it! And make sure you do so with Josh Dreamland safari and ask for Danford!!

A perfect safari experience
I have just returned from a 3 day safari in Masai Mara with a friend, using Gofan Safaris.
Our experience was incredible and we were so happy with Gofan Safaris. Our car was comfortable, clean, and had great big windows and pop up roof to get great views.
Our driver was called Tony. He was amazing - so knowledgeable, skilled and fun. We were impressed by his safe driving on the transfer from Nairobi to Masai Mara. In the park, he was able to find SO many animals, and our drives were varied and interesting. He tailored the trip to what we were keen on. Tony made our trip so great and we are very grateful!! Request him if you can.
Thanks so much for an incredible, once in a lifetime trip.

The services were excellent, the organisation superb and top notch.
This was my first Safari with Veracious and I was just happy with how they planned and tailored my safari to exactly match my expectations. During the safari, our guide was great, very friendly, punctual, knowledgeable and very professional. I highly recommend Veracious Horizon Adventures!
