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.

Amazing experience in an incredible country. Thanks to Wilson for his great job.
Reliable and professional tour operator. The trip was organized very well and Wilson was always present, available to every request and punctual. I spent an unforgettable 5-day vacation with my children, sharing all the emotions we encountered during the tour in Uganda. Gorilla, chimpanzee and lions on trees. Thanks for everything!
David and his team did everything they could to make sure my son and I had a successful tri
My son (with food intolerances) and I had a memorable trip visiting two game lodges in South Africa which David and his team arranged and very importantly followed through at each stage to make sure it was a success. They took time to try and find us appropriate lodges with the right qualities to keep myself, who has been on four or five safaris in the past, and my son for which this was his first, happy.

In general all good, but sometimes a bit disorganized
We had really great safari and this is achievement on our guide!
Moses (https://www.facebook.com/moses.nnko.50) is really great guy, excellent driver, honest person and just very positive person. He made our trip, he knows where to find animals and how to get to them. It's not his bad but couple times because payments were not complete, we were waiting for an hour or so in front of the gates into national parks.
Organization before trip were a bit un organized as well, for example we were trying to get hotels conformations for a month (one month took us to get conformations from the hotels). With one camp we found the wrong dates and highlight this. in the end when we came to the camp nobody was there and we were needed to go to another camp. Thanks again to Moses (our guide) he was able to sort this out

Review about Tsavo West National Park by Family Hansson
The nature was beautiful but very bushy which made the animals harder to spot.

Review about Amboseli National Park by Family Hansson
The nature was beautiful and green with grass and water. We spotted a lot of animals. The animals were not afraid of the jeep so we were able to come close and got beautiful pictures. We got a very nice view of Mount Kilimanjaro as well.

Tony and his team did their best to ensure my travel partner and I were comfortable at all times!
The food and accommodation on this mobile safari exceeded my expectations. Tony makes a lot of jokes, but is well educated on current political and cultural affairs and how they effect the natural environment. Tony is quick to reply in English via WhatsApp and email. The safaro was truly unforgettable.

Brilliant and well worth the money!
I cannot thank Baboon Budget Safari enough for making my first two weeks in Kenya so brilliant! Of course the accommodation was basic but thats what you're paying for. The team look after you every step of the way from airport pick up to finishing in Nairobi, Tabitha was available by whatapp whenever I needed her to sort out buses and pick up times etc, really settling for any solo or new travellers. Mansur was my guide and he was fantastic making sure we saw as much as possible! The itinerary does change depending on weather etc but I still did everything as arranged just in a different order. thank you Baboon Budget!

Good safari
We spent 6 nights in Kenya with Shalom safaris. Joseph is an experienced driver who could negotiate even the most impossible roads.
We felt we were well taken care of and could rely on our operator. Also the price / quality ratio was great.
Some changes were done to itinerary in the last minute, and communication about this was not done in the best manner (hence only 4 stars).

it was an exciting and well thought out trip
Has good services and a high level of customer care. I was happy with the professionalism portrayed by the staff both at their booking office and field team.
