Beyond Expectations
Everything is beyond expectations.
My friend and I went on a mid-range 4 day Serengeti safari with Steve’s team. Now thanking back, the route Steve planned is very smart, with no time wasted. We flew to Northern Serengeti first, then drove through central Serengeti and all the way back to Arusha.
Every accommodation is beyond expectation. You can feel the efforts Steve put in picking the hotels.
During the trip, we saw Great Migration crossing, big fives. I have to say we are quite lucky but also thanks to our guide/driver’s excellent driving skill and abundant knowledge of animals.
Last but not least, our car is loaded with free beer every day! And cold beer! A biiiiiig bonus!!
The whole trip is a good balance between chill and adventure. So just trust Steve and his team. He will guarantee you a unforgettable experience!

Excellent, David is an awesome tour guide
Our tour was amazing! We were able to see the famous wildebeest river crossing and all of the Ugly 5 and Big 4 (minus rhinos) during our tour. Our guide David has been awesome, it has been a delightful experience to spend time with someone who is so passionate about the safari and knows so much about animals. It was our first trip to the east African safari and we can’t wait to come back again with Savannah explorer.

One in a lifetime experience, perfect orchestration
As a couple, we made a private 4 day mid range safari tour with one day coffee and waterfall excursion.
First of all, our pre-safari communication with Shadrack, the manager, was smooth and reactive. He sincerely wishes to make sure your experience is one of a lifetime’s. He met us in person before and after our safari tour to brief before and gather our thoughts and recommendations after.
Secondly, all of our guides were knowledgeable, adaptive, funny and helpful. Special thanks to our guide Fred who was a very good driver, excellent guide (both knowledgeable about the type and description of animals, places to look for them and safety concerns related).
Our accommodation was generally good : both with “glamping” in Serengeti (heritage camp) and Ngorongogo (Ngorongoro Wild Camp) and more European style hotel in Arusha (Arusha planet lodge) and nearby Tarangire National Park (Eileen’s trees inn). All of the hotels personnel were very helpful, friendly and kind. Breakfast and dinner in our accommodation was mostly varied and with some vegetarian options (a little less options in Serengeti heritage camp and ngorongoro but understandable because of the distance from the bigger cities). However, even though we shared in advance that we both were vegetarian, on a few occasion our choice was quite limited with rice and a few raw salad. On a brighter side, we had “unlimited” beer and wine as well as coffee (in powder), water and tea available for us in the van.
We celebrated our first lion sighting with a glass of wine which was memorable.
All in all, we wish we had booked one or two days more than we did because we felt it was not that tiring and enjoyed our time. Thank you again for this lifetime experience. We certainly recommend Meru Slopes tours and safaris. You will not be disappointed! Don’t look any further.

Good price and friendly staff
Widmanmasika gave us the best price. We visited Mikumi National Park, we enjoyed and we saw a lot of animals. The accomodation was good.

Professional, fun and knowledgeable
We had a lovely time with our guide, Patrick. He was awesome and knew so much about the animals and when and where to see the best things. We saw leopards, wildebeest crossings and many many more.

Ideal planner for an idyllic holiday
Dealing with logistics is the last thing I want to worry about during my holiday, and planning for a trip to Africa involves LOGISTICS. African Safari Guru took all that worry out of my hands. They have local knowledge and expertise, and took care of everything. There were small hiccups with local vendors but those were swiftly handled. My family and I were well taken care of every step of the way; starting from airport transfers to guides, to the beautiful accommodations, to well-paced activities to our liking.
Details are handled pre trip when you book the trip, with clear instructions, and prompt replies. Just make sure you communicate clearly with the agent handling your tour plan about your wishes, and they will customize accordingly.

Amazing, local safari tour company with great service
We had an INCREDIBLE trip with Daniel Kisemei, our guide and driver. We took a six-day safari through Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, and Maasai Mara. In the short trip, we saw the Big Five, the Great Migration, and learned a lot about African culture from Daniel, who was born in the Maasai culture. He was extremely knowledgeable and could identify every animal/bird we saw on our trip. He is well educated on all aspects of Kenyan life, including politics, society, and more. I can't recommend him enough. He is a very sincere, genuine, and hardworking guide who will ensure your travel group has a great and safe experience.
Lencer, our travel coordinator, also did an excellent job. She was very responsive at all times. When a hotel had underdelivered on what was agreed up on, she quickly took action to advocate for us.
Awour Escapades is a great, small safari company. My friends and I would recommend them to any foreigners looking to travel to Kenya.
