Lifetime experience
We booked 5 day safari with Suricata and it could not be better! It was one of the best experience we have ever had. Hilary and his team are doing a great job!
Night before and night after safari they booked us a lovely hotel with the most friendly staff.
From the first day we felt really comfortable and safe. Our guide Lewis and cook Hilda - they were amazing and we had so much fun. Lewis has a great knowledge and he answered every question. You can see that he loves his job. We were lucky and saw the big five, camped in the most beautiful places and ate delicious food cooked by Hilda. Everything was absolutely amazing.
After safari Hilary came to our hotel to make sure everything was fine and he organized a taxi drive for us for the next day to the airport.
Thank you very much for the amazing days we spent with you and we hope to see you again! We wish you all the best.
We recommend Suricata safari to everyone!

Unbelievable Experience!
I took a ten-person team on a three day safari in the Masai Mara. It was an unbelievable experience! The lodging was first rate, the guides were well-informed and the food and drink were excellent. I could not believe the wide variety of wildlife we were exposed to and how close we were able to approach them. And the view at the sundowner took your breath away. It was both personally enriching and an incredible team-building opportunity. I can't recommend Bud and Mattaw Safaris Ltd enough!

Image Travel were punctual in their communication and smoothly delivered an exceptional safari
We had an excellent experience with our safari at Amboseli, staying at the Serena lodge. Communication was smooth and punctual and our safari corresponded to what was detailed on the original offer.
Joseph, our guide and driver, was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He advised us on the best times to spot the animals but let us decide how we wanted to schedule the drives during the day. He strived to show us all the main animals present in Amboseli and carefully planned our days to make sure that we could make the most of our time.
Serena Lodge is located in a prime spot within the park and offers excellent facilities. The room was spacious and clean and the personnel extremely helpful.

What women can do
I have consulted several travel agencies, personally in Italy and on the web sites, and for the offer of itineraries and stays Lady Guide Safaris is really a good agency. From the first page the website looks nice and easy to consult. The site offers proposals with intelligent and practical indications, obviously the price, but then place and time of departure and return, what the offer includes and what is not included, the description of each day of the holiday. But what leads me to praise Lady Guide Safaris is the excellent idea of offering female tour operators particularly important for women who travel. The environmental and cultural characteristics of Uganda and Rwanda are such that for a traveling woman, be it an African woman, but also an oriental woman, but also a European or American woman, it is very important to be able to count on sensitivity, intuition, trust, on the attention that female guides can offer in addition, and not only for women who travel, but also for men who want a more sensitive and kind welcome. For the trip I want to make in Uganda, I turned to Lady Guide Safaris and I can confirm that as a customer I am receiving personalized, attentive, caring and efficient treatment.

Excellent service. Really goes the extra mile in order to make sure you’ve got the best holiday experience you can wish.
Prices are fair and due to all the care you really get very very very good value for your money.
If you want to make sure someone takes care of you/ your trips/ safari, don’t hesitate for a second to book with Staajabu.
Thank you Brian and the crew from Staajabu for making our holiday the best we’ve had!

Book with these guys.
Our expectations were consistently exceeded every step of the way, culminating in a truly spectacular safari experience that I would recommend to anyone.
Bartho is a cool guy and his team are all fantastic. Our guide, Simba, really worked hard to make sure we had a great experience, several times flooring it to see something that cars behind missed. He gave us background on what we were seeing, including some of the conservation efforts and work that goes on to keep the parks alive. The chef (cook is not the appropriate word), went far beyond our expectations. While sitting in the campsites, other groups could be observed eating sliced bread and simple stews. We were feasting on freshly baked breads and pastries, elaborate soups, perfectly roasted chicken, etc.
There seem to be a lot of operators at this price range, but I cant imagine any are as good as these guys.

Unbelievable! The Trip Of A Lifetime! Everything was first class!
Capetown was beautiful, the tours and food excellent! When the airline, (Air Canada), totally screwed us for a day of vacation, Chris rearranged everything so we didn’t miss one minute of the best tours. Safari was awesome and humbling, seeing the big five every day. The comfort on safari was unsurpassed! Victoria Falls passed my expectations, especially enjoying a five star dinner and having a hippo wander out of the river to dine with us!

Amazing safari to Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha and Amboseli
We had a great time with Heritage of African Jungles on our 7-day safari to Masai Mara (3 nights), Nakuru (1 night), Naivasha (1 night) and Amboseli (2 nights) in October 2019. It was very easy to organise the trip with Naomi, who always responded promptly and was open about all the costs. The camps that Naomi suggested for our price range all turned out be excellent and in fact exceeded our expectations. She was also flexible and happy to customise our itinerary - as we planned to go to Mombasa after visiting Amboseli, she bought train tickets for us from Emali to Mombasa and organised transport for us from the train station in Mombasa to our hotel in the city centre.
Our guide at the safari, Peter, was always in a good mood and keen to share his knowledge about wildlife and more generally about Kenya. He was always early and patient with us (we took a lot of pictures!), and made a lot of effort to make sure that we had good sightings of animals (and Kilimanjaro in Amboseli). With Peter as our guide we felt that everything has been taken care of and that there is nothing we should worry about. He did this until the very end of our trip, making sure that we made it through security at the train station in Emali.
We managed to see each of the Big Five animals multiple times (lions, elephants and buffalos in Masai Mara and Amboseli, leopards in Masai Mara, and rhinos in Lake Nakuru). We were very lucky to be able to watch a leopard walking for about half an hour in Masai Mara. Other highlights include seeing lion cubs, a small giraffe that was less than one week old and a group of five cheetah brothers in Masai Mara, a large group of elephants in the Mara River, seven rhinos (including a small one) in Lake Nakuru and elephants in front of Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli. We also enjoyed the boat trip on Lake Naivasha and walking among giraffes, zebras, wildebeest and impalas on the Crescent Island.
Before the safari, we also went on a day trip around Nairobi (to David Sheldrick elephant orphanage, Giraffe Centre and Karen Blixen's house) with Francis, which we also enjoyed very much. After the trip, we asked him for restaurant recommendations and the place he suggested turned out to be exactly what we wanted (very good and not too expensive food).
We highly recommend Heritage of African Jungles and will definitely book a safari with them the next time we come to Kenya! Asante sana!
