What a wonderful safari!
This safari has exceeded all my expectations. The scenery across the savanna is breathtaking, and we were lucky to spot many wild animals including lions, elephants and leopards. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and observant; he knew exactly where to look and patiently shared interesting facts about every creature we saw. Every moment out in the wilderness felt special and unforgettable. I truly appreciate his hard work and careful arrangements. It has been an incredible, once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I would highly recommend this safari to anyone visiting Keny

Reliable safari operator with great guide and wonderful wildlife‑viewing experience
We had a fantastic safari experience with Jacmiya Safaris. Communication was smooth before and during the trip. Our guide was knowledgeable, patient and knew perfect spots for wildlife sightings. Everything was well‑organized and reliable. Great value for money, I would highly recommend this operator for your Kenya safari.

Amazing service made this the trip of a lifetime!
We did a 15 day trip with Safari Soles in September. We started with 8 days hiking Mt Kilimanjaro using the Lemosho route followed by a safari in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro & Tarangirie.
From the start the booking process was made super easy by Patrick, he was super responsive, very knowledgeable and helped plan the trip of a lifetime. Even when we had to make schedule changes after we had multiple flight changes due to the Middle East conflict, it was all done without any issues.
The hike was the hardest thing we have ever done but was an amazing experience. What made it so special was the team of guides, porters & chef that supported us the whole way. Without them we would never have made it. We had 2 very experienced guides (over 20 years each), Antipas & Paul who were with us the whole way, they were very supportive and even helped carry some of our gear when we were exhausted, we then had 10 porters, Mohamed, Simba, Pascal, Makame, Frank, Boniface, Jamali, Julius, Ally & Thomas. These guy are absolute legends and superhuman!, they carried all the gear and set up camp daily for us, looked after us, always with a smile on their faces. A special mention to Thomas who also acted as our waiter, bring us our meals, making sure we always had hot drinks and warm water to wash. We also had Oscar, our chef who cooked us 3 meals a day, the food was great, not just for a mountain but anywhere, how he does that is beyond me.
For the summit night, we had our guides as well as Simba & Pascal to make sure the 2 of us got to the summit and back safely. Simba & Pascal deserve an extra mention, they helped me back down from the summit after I was completely exhaused, holding me to make sure I didn't slip or injure myself as well as keeping a good pace so we could get enough rest before continuing further down later in the day.
The team are phenomenal people, they all work so hard to make our experience so amazing and I can't thank them enough!!!
I would highly recommend using Safari Soles for Kilimanjaro and if you can get the same team we did, then do it, you won't be disappointed!
For the safari, we had Calvin as our guide, he took us on an epic 6 day road trip through Tarangerie, the Central & Northern Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater.
While Calvin was not the most talkative, he was extremely good at finding the wildlife and extremely knowledgeable about everything, explaining the different species of each animal, how they lived, what they ate, how they hunted etc, a true safari wildlife expert!
He was always on the lookout for animals, big and small, he knew where to go for the best chance of sightings at different times of day. We managed to see all of the big 5 as well as pretty much everything else we could imagine.
Calvin was an excellent guide and highly recommended, he has made us want to do more safaris which we are already planning! I plan on booking with Safari Soles if they operate in the countries we want to see.

Our tour operator was hands down the best!
We booked our safari with Zania Safaris and had great communication from the start. Mwbana answered all of our questions within a few hours. He arranged all of our flights and lodging and we were very happy with all of the accomodations. The best part was out guide, Joeli. Joeli was fun, funny, knowledgeable, and worked so hard to make sure that we saw all of the animals, the crossing and so much more. He was patient and even started early each day, drove for hours and ended late just to make sure that we had a great trip. I highly recommend Zania Safaris. They exceeded our expectations.

Amazing 9 Day Safari Experience with Axis Africa
Our 9 day safari starting from Nairobi and covering Amboseli, Naivasha, Ol Pejeta, Nakuru and Masai Mara was an exhilarating and memorable experience with Axis Africa having taken care of all our requirements. They were helpful, friendly and very amenable to customization of the trip.
The Safari vehicle was neat and in good shape and the best part of the Safari was our guide Mr Collin Sempele, whose wide knowledge of the wildlife, the game drives and his experience kept us all engaged and happy. Kudos to Mr Collin.

Fantastic!
We had an amazing experience with Tazama during our trip to Kenya and would highly recommend them.
Communication before the trip was always smooth and responsive. They were very patient in answering all of our questions and helped us book the hotels we wanted.
During the trip, our guide Fred was fantastic. He is very experienced, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind. He helped us see so many of the animals we had hoped to see, and throughout the journey he was always happy to answer our questions about the wildlife, Kenya, and local culture.
We are very grateful to Tazama and especially to Fred for making our Kenya trip such a wonderful and unforgettable experience. We would absolutely recommend both Tazama and Fred to anyone planning a safari in Kenya!

Magic
Along with 5 family members, I enjoyed a marvellous 9 days safari through Amboseli, Naivasha, Ol Pejeta, Nakuro and Masai Mara.
The backbone of the tour was our guide Mr. Collin Sempele. With enthusiasm, great route planning, regularly updating sightings, clear communication and constant attention to our comfort, he ensured that every viewing opportunity was explored. Our individual and collective wishlists were checked off 100% plus more.
I will forever cherish the life lessons I learnt from him in the course of our interaction over 9 memorable days.
Kenya is incredible 🌿

Professional, accommodating, felt safe, knowledgeable, proud of his country and terrific to talk to.
We booked a holiday to Zambia through a tour operator based there. Andrew and Moses were our drivers, chefs and guides, taking us to amazing destinations. The tour was faultless. They accommodated our requests and needs without any fuss. They were kind, easy to talk to and happy to answer questions. We shared many laughs. They shared their vast knowledge of wildlife, vegetation, locations, history and culture with pride and passion. Thanks to Andrew and Moses our holiday experience will always be fondly remembered. We highly recommend their professional services.
