custom Safari for 7 days, beyond expectations!
5/5

We are a family of 4 and wanted to go for a safari in South Africa. I wrote to a few safari tour organizers and Thale was the one who responded with a personalized note. We followed up with her and she organized a customized trip for our family at a very decent price. She sent us all the info we needed to get ready for our experience.
2 guides came to pick us up at the airport and we spend 7 days together. They were just amazing people: professional, kind, funny, knowledgeable. They did everything they could and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our experience. We saw plenty of animals! We are still talking about the amazing chicken curry they cooked for us. Pictures from our trip are covering the walls of our house. We all have beautiful memories. It was beyond expectations.

An Outstanding Safari Led by an Exceptional Guide, Despite Operational Issues
4/5

The four-day, three-night safari tour was truly breathtaking. Being able to witness animals living their lives freely, exactly where they belong, with my own eyes felt like a profound blessing and a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

My driver, Moses, had deep knowledge of both the safari and the wildlife. He was exceptional at tracking animals and always attentive to their movements. He also thoughtfully considered the direction of the light and positioned us in the best spots, allowing me to photograph the animals in the most beautiful way possible. I was genuinely impressed by both his professionalism and his considerate attitude.

The safari experience itself deserves a 10 out of 10. However, there were significant issues with the lodges where we stayed. In both lodges, internet access was not available in the rooms and could only be used in the communal areas, which was frustrating. Neither lodge provided a hair dryer either.

More disappointingly, the staff at Masai Mara Sopa Lodge repeatedly made mistakes and behaved rudely, despite this being a service-oriented environment. There were no apologies offered unless I raised strong complaints, and only then were the issues addressed with delayed apologies. Staying there felt unpleasant and uncomfortable.

In addition, the tour payment was split into two parts, and there was a serious issue with the second payment. The amount communicated to me was incorrect, and as a result, I almost overpaid by 500 dollars. This caused unnecessary stress and should not happen in a professionally managed tour.

The contrast between the wonderful safari experience and the disappointing lodge stay was quite stark. If these issues, including accommodation and payment accuracy, were properly addressed, this tour could truly be an outstanding experience overall.

Perfect
5/5

We had an amazing safari experience in Kenya with Morning Star. Our guide, John, was outstanding from start to finish. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and always knew where to take us so we could see the animals up close. Thanks to him, we saw lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and many more. He made us feel safe and well taken care of throughout the trip. The organization by Morning Star was smooth and professional, and everything went perfectly. We are very grateful for this unforgettable adventure and highly recommend both Morning Star and John.

Professional, Reliable & Truly Exceptional
5/5

Their communication was impeccable from start to finish. They shared a well-planned itinerary in advance, which made it easy for us to prepare and know exactly what to expect. Every update was timely, clear, and thorough..no guesswork, no follow-ups needed. Just smooth, professional coordination.

They kept time to the core; every pickup, every drive, every schedule item was executed with precision. They also ensured we followed the itinerary exactly as planned, without rushing us or causing any delays. Their commitment to time and structure made the trip smooth and completely stress-free.

The service was top-tier. James, our guide, was exceptional, knowledgeable, warm, patient, and deeply passionate about the Mara. He gave us a safe, seamless, and enriching safari experience. We saw 4 of the Big Five and even the notorious Ugly 5. We enjoyed breathtaking sunsets and experienced the serenity of the Mara River. The journey was beautifully curated, and the entire experience surpassed my expectations.

From the scenic road trip to the expertly guided game drives and the seamless coordination with Zebra Plains Camp, we truly received value for money. Every part of the experience felt intentional and worth it.

Morning Star Tours & Travel is, without a doubt, a highly professional, reliable, and client-focused agency. We highly recommend them for an unforgettable experience!
