Review about Serengeti National Park by Zacharias Antoniadis
Amazing savana environment. You feel like being in the middle of nowhere. It is very important to have a good guide and find out the right place in the right moment. Unbelievable pictures, very special place.many animals

Amazing experience. Many pictures, many wild animals, fantastic environment
We sow over than 30 different species of animals. Serengeti and Ngoro Ngoro were the places that we visited. The environment was amazing and the weather conditions on February were ideal for the safari experience. The location of the camps is inside the savana. During the night you can see also wild animals around the tends. It looks like dangerous but it is just adventurous. There is no risk on that, because there are always guardians around. Fredie, our guide was very good. It is important to know where you have to go and find out where the wild animals are. He was very friendly and help us to have the best experience. Thank you

Good experience, but there is still room for improvement
What we liked the most is that everything that we booked was on time and James was able to adjust the booking according to our wishes.
We visited AA Lodge in Amboselli and Sarova Salt Lick Game Lodge in Tsavo West. We would definitely recommend Amboselli for game drives with the view on mt. Kilimanjaro and Sarova Salt Lick Game Lodge for unique experience, where wild animals (elephants, baboons, zebras, buffalos etc.) are walking under your room to get some fresh water.
We expected the driver to be more communicative/sociable, as it is was our first visit to Africa.
We wanted to know as much as possible about wildlife or Kenya in general, but the driver was rather quiet. If you are looking for a high-end safari with a proper guide, who can give you at least some information about animals, game drives, Kenya or Africa, I would recommend another company. Maybe it's just a matter of person and WildLife Sun Safaris has more experienced guides/drivers.

Wonderful
Our family of 5 recently did the 6 day safari with Becon safari. The
communication and booking through Robert was excellent and prompt. We were
picked up in Nairobi, went to Ambosili, Massi Mara and Lake Nakuru. The
accommodation and meals were very good.
Our guide was an excellent driver, polite, friendly enough, found and
showed the big 5, and many other wild animals, which in itself was
fantastic! He also spoke to the front desk at one of the lodges and
promptly got us a room when ours wasn't ready at check in, which was very
much appreciated after a long day of travel.
Beacon Safari was easy to book, took care of all the details, and a good company to go through if thinking of going to Kenya.

A truly enjoyable experience with a great guide.
Communications before and after the trip were very good. Everything went according to plan and exceeded our expectations, nothing was to much trouble for Raja or Nico our guide.

Amazing Kilimanjaro Climb Experience
The guide and assistant guides were all excellent. Highly skilled and each capable of being a lead guide. All were fun, professional and knowledgable. They made the climb enjoyable and safe. I would highly recommend to others and will take my son when he reaches 16 years old.
The safari was fantastic. The tents on the serengetti were excellent and a great experience. Ian is a legendary driver and placed us in the best positions for viewing the wildlife. He made the safari 100% better.
Thanks for the excellent trip. My husband and I had the best time on mountain and safari. We surely recommend Tanzania Exclusive Journeys

All according to expectations and as agreed.
We arranged a personalized safari which was all that we expected and more. The places recommended by the agency were fantastic. We did not encounter any problems with what was promised and all went according to plan. We even saw a place which was not in their recommended list but they still arranged to book it for us without hesitation. Again, all was as promised.
Vanessa was our contact in Spirit of Kenya and she always answered promptly to our questions. There were some minor changes to the timing of our flights booked with Spirit of Kenya and we were informed immediately. The only thing that was not that swift was the confirmation of the receipt of our payment and remaining balance to pay. In the end all was clarified, but there was a small confusion on their side.
The safari itself was an incredible experience that I would definitely recommend!

Very professional even if some mistakes occurred
It was perfect, really intense week !
Good lodges, even I would have appreciate to spend 2 nights in lake Mutanda instead of 1.
You forgot to book the lion tracking but hopefully we spotted them without it and I’ve been refunded so no complain.
The only real bad point was the guide because he wasn’t, he was a driver. We never spent time with him and he told us he was not here to entertain. Only gave departure hour, no more. But he is a great driver (Sam)

A paradise of birds
At about 45km from Lake Langano, going in the direction of Addis Ababa Capital, it is possible to stop in the small town of Zua which is an excellent starting point for visiting Lake Ziway.
Zua is a tiny, fervent town of humanity and although the primary goal is to visit Lake Ziway it can also be interesting to spend some time observing the frenetic activity of the population intent on daily activities.
It is possible to visit the lake by boat, rented by one of the many fishermen who will be happy to take you around in exchange for an appropriate fee, but for those who did not have too much time and wanted to see the largest number of endemic species the advice is to take a walk through one of Zua's piers.
With a short walk you can see many species of birds that frequent the pier or its surroundings, looking for food. The first, and the one with the greatest impact, is certainly the African Marabou, a large bird belonging to the Ciconiidae family, which, however, has very little of the beauty of its most famous cousins, the white storks. The Marabou has, more or less, the same size of the stork but the similarities end there: the beak is definitely larger and less graceful and the head looks like a bald head on which grows a disordered tuft of hair. In addition to being unattractive, Marabou also has a "questionable" diet, feeding, mostly, corpses. On the other hand brilliantly fulfills his role as a sweeper for which it is tolerated and is not bothered by the natives.
In addition to the Marabou it is possible to see small groups of Pelicans, who are often attracted by the fishermen in the port who throw fish scraps, the Alopochen aegyptiaca, more commonly known as "Egyptian goose", of the friendly Scopus Umbretta, small hammer-headed birds and , finally, of the beautiful Martin Pescatori.
Passing an hour on the pier you can see many species but if you want to deepen the visit, with a motor boat and a few hours available, you can enjoy a relaxing trip with which to observe many species of birds.
