Best trip in my lifetime
We had a great Kenya/Tanzania safari tour. Kelvin from Phine Safaris arranged a perfect tour for us. Both guides from Kenya (Julius) and Tanzania (Mpoly) are great. We saw all the wildlife we were hoping to see including over 60 lions and even got to witness the once-in-lifetime magnificent wildebeest crossing Mara river. The two guides are super knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the animals as well as traditional way of living. We were amazed that they even memorize all the bird species. In addition, all the lodges are well situated with personalized service. It was such a memorable experience for my family, especially for my 80 year old parents. I can't thank Kelvin and the guides enough for creating such an unforgettable experience for us!

Experience of a lifetime - thanks to Wilson!
We went as a group of 5 friends to Masai Mara. We were unfortunately short on time. Only had time for 1.5 days of game drive. Our guide Wilson was well aware of this and did an exceptional job to give us the best experience in the short time. On the first day started the game drive right when the gates open at 6:30 am. Did it for the whole 12 hours. Second day was a half day and we started again at 6:45am. Wilson was extremely punctual to reach on time even in such a cold weather. He is very experienced and it is quite apparent. He knows the movement patterns, best spots to park the car for best photos. I appreciate his hard work. Will visit again for a week next time!

Excellent safary
A good experience, our guides Jerry and Mau were really professional and help us during our tour with clear explanation on habits and way of life of animals. We saw a lot of different animals in Serengeti NgoroNgoro and Tarangire with some breathtaking moments. The hotels were we stayed were really beatiful, expecially in Serengeti with an unforgettable dinner in the bush.
Good experience with Savanna Explorers

Deliver value for money
Arthur and team made us feel at home, making our honeymoon a memorable one. From booking, to Pre-travel arrangements, from arrival to tours within Victoria Falls, from departure to arrival at our final destination they were constantly checking and ensuring we are safe, enjoying our moment. Not forgetting the surprise honeymoon treat which they hinted the chefs at Boma😄. Thank you so much Arthur and team.

Tellena tours arranged our family the holiday of a lifetime!
Mercy, Victor and the team at Tellena tours made our trip to Kenya an unforgettable experience.
Their friendliness,and organisation of our itinerary, made our holiday so enjoyable. Our driver, Milton, was so knowledgeable and going on safari with him was a pleasure.
The accomodation was top quality.
I would recommend doing as many extra activities as possible. Visit the Giraffe Centre, National Museum and Elephant orphanage in Nairobi, take the sunrise balloon ride at the Masai Mara, do a night safari and go snorkelling at Wasani reef.
Thank you Tellena tours, our memories of Kenya and it's people will last forever.

The greatest holiday of our lives
Communication: Was wonderful, we contacted David about needs in the build-up, and was always reachable when we were at the hotel etc. On the safari he was as knowledgable as he was personable, a joy to spend 7-days with. Every question we asked he had an answer to, and went above and beyond to share his insights.
Service: As above the service David provided was impeccable, timely pick up from the airport, a clean luxury car (with Wifi), there wasn't one thing we would change. The hotels provided were also best in class.
Value for money: This was great, we thought it would cost alot more, and looking at the prices of the hotels online we are surprised how affordable it was. No complaints and would book again.
Reliability: 10/10, nothing else to say.
Tour: The tour was fantastic, from the airport to Sambura, stopping at a village before undertaking our first game drive. We saw Lion's every single day, and managed to see all of the big-5 including the elusive Leopard in the Masai Mara.
David must stand for DVD + AI (entertainment + knowledge)

This is a very memorable and wonderful trip.
It is really worth joining this tour group. Special thanks to our guide Reginald. As long as we ask for the animals we want to see, he will do his best to help us, stay for a long time and watch them as close as possible. This is a very memorable and wonderful trip.

Amazing personalized Namibia adventure!!
We had an amazing experience with Zim, we planned this trip with very little time and Zim was able to set everything up according to our requests. We (my girlfriend and I) travelled with a personalized guide who was great, shout out to Diwiwi!!
Zim made sure to be on top of everything the whole trip, we felt taken care off every step of the way.
Trip of a lifetime, can’t recommend it enough.
