Michelle is a well organized planner with exceptional attention to detail.
We returned from our first trip to Africa and it was the most wonderful experience all organized by Michelle. She arranged all of the internal flights, hotel bookings and transfers as well as the tours. Michelle made things very easy, gave some excellent recommendations on lodging choices and organized everything including a recommended packing list and tipping guide. We did not have any hiccups with any of the transfers between hotel to airport or the flights themselves as everything went as planned which all one wants when traveling nowadays.
This trip was by far our most favorite and we have memories for a lifetime. Please don't hesitate to contact her for planning a truly exceptional trip of a lifetime. Thank you Michelle for your assistance.

A wonderful safari experience in Kenya that we highly recommend!
We spent six days on safari across three different parks and were lucky enough to see the Big Five from the very first day, despite the rain! It was an exceptional experience, getting so close to nature and seeing the animals in their natural environment.
A big thank you to Geeman, our guide, who accompanied us throughout the entire safari. He was very attentive, helpful and always available. He shared interesting information about the animals as well as Kenyan culture, and always made sure we were safe throughout the trip.
The agency was also very responsive and available to answer all our questions. The itinerary was clear, well organised and exactly as planned.
An unforgettable experience, with an excellent guide and great organisation. We are leaving with wonderful memories and lots of amazing photos!

We had a wonderful Amboseli tour thanks to the excellent guidance of Jonathan and Jackson.
I was thoroughly satisfied with the drive to Amboseli and the game drive led by Jonathan and Jackson. Their attentive service and sound judgment made for a wonderful experience. I would certainly love to book with them again.

Had the best time exploring Kenya with Peter and his Live in Love Kenya Tours and Travel team!
Peter and his team were incredible. We zipped all around Kenya getting a free “African Massage” along the way. We also got to ride in the big bus with a table in it that made for incredible conversations with our group. I believe you too will have as great a time as we had if you book with Peter and his team.

Extremely trustworthy tour operator with Estomih as a stand out guide.
My wife and I joined Safari Soles this August for an eight-day luxury safari, and we had an outstanding experience. Everything was extremely well coordinated from beginning to end. For anyone comparing different outfitters for a Tanzania safari, I wanted to highlight a few aspects of our experience that particularly stood out.
Most importantly, our guide, Estomih, was exceptional. He guided us for the six days we spent on safari and was everything we could have hoped for in a guide. In addition to speaking fluent English, Estomih grew up in the Western Serengeti and has an extraordinary knowledge of the area. He seemed to know every game trail and could navigate effortlessly without relying on GPS. He was also an excellent driver, deftly handling some very rough roads and repeatedly positioning us for remarkable wildlife encounters—often getting us into better viewing positions than other vehicles nearby.
Just as impressive was Estomih’s knowledge of the wildlife, ecology, and history of the region. He could answer seemingly every question we threw at him and added a tremendous amount of context to everything we saw. Beyond all of that, he is simply a warm, friendly, and enjoyable person to spend six days with. Estomih is truly a first-rate guide, and I would recommend him without hesitation.
Our experience with Safari Soles as a company was equally positive. They were thorough, transparent, and dependable throughout the entire process. Everything was carefully planned and happened exactly as communicated. Our Land Cruiser was very well equipped, and the accommodations throughout the trip were excellent.
One experience in particular says a great deal about the company. After we had agreed upon our accommodations and total price and had already paid our deposit, Safari Soles contacted us to say that our agreed-upon budget was actually sufficient to upgrade several of our accommodations at no additional cost. They could easily have kept the difference, and we would never have known. Instead, they passed that value back to us. I thought this was an exceptionally generous gesture and, more importantly, a reflection of the kind of honest, customer-oriented business practices you can expect when working with Safari Soles.
That same flexibility was evident at the end of our trip. When our departing flights changed at the last minute, Safari Soles was more than happy to rearrange our itinerary on very short notice, and the resulting changes worked out perfectly.
We came away extremely impressed with both the company and our guide. I am very happy to give Safari Soles—and Estomih in particular—my highest and completely unqualified recommendation. If we were planning another safari in Tanzania, I would not hesitate to work with them again.

The best tour guide in town!
Job was the best, most knowledgeable guide we could ever asked for. Super friendly and on top of every detail of the tour. Would 100% recommend any tour with him for the future.
