Over all amazing experience
We went on a 4D/3N safari trip to Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Both Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro were great experiences with lots of animals and beautiful nature! Serengeti on the other hand was a bit disappointing in our opinion. Not many animals and the roads were not good. Beautiful nature though.
We chose tented camps which was a different but great experience as well. Close to animals.

Great safari. Fantastic safari guide.
Safari was even more what we expected. Moses as a safari guide was fantastic - very experienced and good driver.

Our guide & driver Moses was the best guide we could ever wish for.
The communication before the safari was excellent. We got to plan our safari exactly based on our needs and desires. There were some slight changes in accommodation but we were informed about everything in advance and it was actually an upgrade :)
The safari itself was an amazing experience! Our guide&driver Moses was the best guide we could ever wish for. Moses is a very nice person. He went above and beyond and work very hard to show us all the animals and made our time and money totally worth!
We faced some problems with payment but in the end, it was resolved and I believe Taste of Afrike won't allow this to happen in the future.

Prompt replies to questions, knowledgeable, helpful making arrangements.
From my first inquiry to my last questions about trip details Aileen was most helpful and prompt in replying. Our guide, Joseph, arrived at hotel on time, was knowledgeable about Nairobi, and Maasai Mara. The jeep was comfortable, the lodge lovely with very good food. Joseph "found" all the animals we hoped to see with exception of leopard. We felt very fortunate to see giraffes, zebras, lions, cheetahs, a few wildebeest (most in Serengetti at this time of year), and one rhino! I recommend working with Tamasha Arika!

Safari with Mudy
In January we went on six-day safari with Mudy from Planet Reserve. We started in Tarangire NP, then Lake Manyara, Serengeti and the Ngorogoro crater. We booked online, and the communication went well, and everything was well arranged. My friend had some special dietary requests, and they looked well after this. Mudy knew how to be at the right time at the right place, we saw many interesting things, and he always manouvered his car in such a way that we had a great view! If I am allowed to give some uplifting feedback; he should become a bit more knowledgeable on animal facts/behaviour etc. He could not answer many questions. But overall we had a great time, and awesome photos :)

Good sightseeing, bad food
The safari itself was pretty good. We got to see almost all the animals, and camping was very nice. We were given all necessary equipment.
The food on the other hand, was not what we expected. People in our group had various diets/allergies, and these needs were not met. The chef had heard nothing about our requirements although all of us had informed staff about this when we booked the safari. Since he didn't know about allergies and diets, he had not bought the groceries suitable for our diets. It was also difficult to communicate properly with the chef because of the language barrier. He did find a way to cook food that everyone could eat, but it wasn't optimal.

Great experience, the devil lies in the details
We took a three days safari in Tsavo East and Amboseli National parks, starting from Diani Beach. Seeing the wildlife in their natural habitat is really great experience which could have been even better if we took care of some details.
During these three days, we spent approx. 24 hours in the van, either traveling from one place to the other or within the national parks. It is very important to rent a good car, with good suspension and air conditioning. The air conditioning is not going to help much in the national parks, since the roof is open for watching the wildlife, but it is essential on the way back from Amboseli to Diani Beach (11hours in the car). Make sure the car is in good shape since we had two car problems which required us to leave the vehicle (in the national park) and stay on the road in the middle of the day. The people were very friendly and helpful. Our guide/driver was doing his best to fix the problem, even colleagues from other agencies stopped and helped. But we could have been much better without that experience.
Altogether, it was challenging and unforgettable. :-)
Andrew was excellent and very helpful . He made sure I am completely satisfied.
Yes very much. I would like to recommend to my friends and family .
I felt little expensive, but overall good experience.
