A well organised, great trip!
Besides our trip to the Kilimanjaro, we also booked the safari (3 days, 2 nights) with this company. We had contact with Mohammed through WhatsApp before departure, which was great! He was very helpful and answering all our questions.
We (a group of 4 friends from the Netherlands) were picked up early in the morning by our guide Josef. A very friendly guide with a good sense of humor.
He drove us to the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater and there we have learned a lot about the environment and all the animals and birds we saw. Josef knows so much!
Josef is a good spotter, he knows were to go and made sure we saw all of the big 5. Josef is definitely not a quitter; he keeps looking for new animals (sometimes long after we were ready to give up, because our eyes were tired 😅).
We slept in tents on campsites which was a great experience. The food from Collins and the other chef was amazing!
We had a great time and like the trekking; we will never forget this. Thank you so much!

Benji is the best!!
We were blown away by the Tanzanian jungle with Benji by our side, showing us the best it had to offer and explaining the habita of all the animals. He made besties with our 9 year old daughter, playing and singing with her whenever we stopped for a break - even teaching her to take professional photos with his massive camera (he later also shared all photos with us, which gave us an unexpected treasure of national-geopgraphic-like personal memories!). He was also one of the few guides to speak Spanish fluently, which helped us a lot since my wife is Spanish. I can't recommend this provider enough, you will not get disappointed!

Excellent Private Safari Tour
Mateo Travel and Adventure organized an excellent private tour for us. The communication with Patrick was reliable, quick and transparent always reassuring us about our decision.
The value for money was one of the best we saw and despite its relatively low price, the quality of the tour was excellent. We had nice stays, great car for the safari and Gordon, our driver had 10+ years of experience. He always knew the best spots and timing, so we could see the big 5 during our first 2 days (of 4).
We totally recommend this reliable and affordable company, you wont be disappointed.

Incredible Experience
Our 10-day familiarization trip to Rwanda, organized by the Rwanda Development Board (RDB) and facilitated by Shalom Safaris, was an unforgettable experience, and one that exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we could feel the trust and confidence RDB placed in Shalom Safaris to provide a world-class experience for us as travel professionals. Their attention to detail, hospitality, and professionalism were evident throughout the entire journey.
A key part of our exceptional experience was the remarkable driver-guide, Mico. RDB had clearly chosen the right person to guide us through Rwanda’s most breathtaking landscapes and cultural treasures. Mico's knowledge of the country’s history, wildlife, and vibrant culture was incredibly thorough, but it was his passion for Rwanda that truly set him apart. He wasn’t just a driver; he was a dedicated ambassador for both Rwanda and Shalom Safaris, sharing captivating stories, engaging with us on every level, and ensuring that we experienced the very best that the country had to offer.
Beyond his impressive expertise, Mico’s hospitality was second to none. He made sure we were comfortable, safe, and well-informed throughout the trip. His thoughtful approach helped us understand how to best present Rwanda as a travel destination to our clients. Mico's insights into the logistics of Rwanda's tourism infrastructure, as well as his firsthand experiences with Rwanda's wildlife and communities, were invaluable. His knowledge helped us develop a deeper understanding of how to sell the destination authentically and enthusiastically to our clients.
The partnership between Shalom Safaris and the Rwanda Development Board truly made this trip a success. With Mico at the helm, we experienced Rwanda in a way that will stay with us for years to come. Shalom Safaris, backed by RDB’s trust, provided an outstanding itinerary, exceptional service, and an experience that surpassed all expectations. We are now more than ever eager to recommend Rwanda as a top travel destination to our clients, confident that we can sell it with genuine passion and understanding, thanks to the invaluable experience facilitated by Shalom Safaris.

excellent, satisfied all our requests
We were in Kenya in March 2025 and it was incredible. Our driver was Joe and he was impeccable, an amazing driver, he showed us all the animals we pointed out to him and was always available to us. In addition, we chose to be accompanied by a guide who spoke Italian and they entrusted us with Francis who was wonderful, he explained everything about the animals and has an incredible eye. I can say that Joe and Francis were an impeccable couple and made our 4-day stay FORMIDABLE. If you were to book a Safari in Kenya I absolutely recommend Africa Marvel Tour, and in particular ask for Joe and Francis.

Amazing experience! Knowledgeable and accomodating staff was wonderful!
We traveled with a group of 15 adults from the US. City and Safari International was amazing from the start of our quote process, through the end of our trip. They got us from Lusaka to Gaborone, including 2 flights, 3 hotel nights, border transfer, and 4 cultural events. Their service was excellent, communication was great throughout the process, and were flexible to meet our budget and timeline. I want to especially thank Tshepiso, whose customer service is above and beyond. We had a potential issue that we knew we might face at the end of our trip. Sure enough, that issue arose, and I called Tshepiso to get it resolved. She was on stand-by waiting for my call, even though we hadn't discussed it in a couple of months. She is on point! I also would recommend them to anyone in the future.

Life changing experience
Our guides/drivers were professional, knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and incredibly talented. We’d give them
6 stars if we could! Major kudos to the leader, Daudi, always kept a smile, was very knowledgeable, a great spotter, and always managed to get the best angle for us to photograph the animals!
