One day Safari + quad bike ride in Aquila Private Reserve
I experienced the full day activity in the Aquila Private Reserve. The Resort was fantastic, with great food and a nice spa. The safari, though, was not as exciting as I expected, but it's a matter of external conditions.
I had the greatest time with the quad bike ride!
I totally recomment Gems of Africa!

Review about Lake Nakuru National Park by Claudio Salzano Junior
Despite the beautiful place we had many raining days and it was no possible to arrive close to the lake.
But the other places was very nice and we saw amazing animals like Rino and red giraffe and elephants!!!

nice despite our guide
The trip was beautiful because nature is wonderful and people are very kind. Our tour was badly organized and our guide was bad. He knew nothing of his country. We got stuck in a river with the car, we got wet and our suitcases ended up in the water and we lost a camera. Nobody apologized. The guide always laughed.
At the end of the tour he did not make us the last excursions, already paid, because he had spent all our money.
I think we found the only incompetent and rude guide in all of Tanzania.

Satisfactory service
Our safari guide was friendly and helpful. We feel that he could’ve been a little more informative, but other than that, everything went as planned and it was a good experience. The only disappointment was that we didn’t get to see lions, but of course that was not his fault. So I would recommend going to a different park like Selous as lions are more commonly seen there. We loved the place where we stayed, though - Camp Bastian. Super nice atmosphere and rooms, the food was great, too. Lenard was always timely and was flexible to make minor adjustments we requested. One thing that I do wish I had known is that the first day’s game drive is not inside the national park but on the road. We did see some animals there, but in the info we received it sounds like we would go inside the national park. We only went into the national park on the second day.

Great fun, coordination was a bit disappointing.
The tour was great fun.
However, a few things to note with regards to tour detail and coordination.
- Guests should be informed payment can't be made with credit card so we don't have to waste money on ATM fee
- Guests should not be forced to any "optional" activity at the lake
- Accommodation listed on the site was inaccurate, later it changed again from what we were informed by email

it was stunnung , over what we expected
we stayed in intercontinental Nairobi first night which was good, then we started our journey and road trip through agent called Mufasa the tour guide ( Wilson ) was super professional and was very helpful for the 6 days with us , we stayed in Entim in Masai Mara the service was great and the place is amazing then we went to the cliff in Nakuru which was suppose to be a higher quality camp but the actually the service was so bad and staff there is rude, we went to Fairmont mount Kenya hotel it was very nice but the receptionist was also rude and un supportive I had to complain 3 times in one day about three different reasons. Mufasa was good agent except for one point we agreed that the cliff was all inclusive same as Entim and we paid for that but what we got was Meals only package and the agent told me it depends on the hotel they decide on arrival if we get AL or FB which makes no sense as I work in tourism and know how it works . please note we were honeymooners and didn't get the expected service from the cliff or Fairmont mount Kenya but in general Kenya is amazing and we will definitely come back but with a different agent

Really budget infrastructure for a budget tour
The safari was good in overall. We saw a lot of animals missing just a male lion, leopard and crocodiles. However, we saw them because my husband was good in finding them and not our guide. He didn’t talk to us and didn’t explain us anything about animals and country, lost answered our questions sometimes. But he (the guide - Kobra) was friendly and helped us to get in the bus (the company got us very very bad bus that we had on the way back, instead of getting us the fast train). Our car was not suitable for safari (minibus) and we always got stuck in roads for hours sometimes and we had to push the car from mud, I guess it happens with everyone but much less when you have a suitable Jeep for safaris. The campings were okay but really wild - in our “cottage” there were holes in walls and holes in mosquito net so all the insects could come in. However, seeing a lot of animals was very pleasant that we forgot about many disappointments on the way.
