A very good experience!
4/5

It was a very good experience. Mr Wachanga was a great guide. Unfortunately, we were not able to see all of the big five (leopards and rhinos were nowhere to be found) but we saw a lot of different animals, almost all of them more than once. The visit to the Maasai village was also a unique and very enriching experience.

The tent camp was also pretty good. For a tent camp, the facilities were very comfortable; everything was very clean and the meals were also good. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

I think the worst was the travel itself; "roads" were very bad for the last 50km, but there's nothing we could have done differently.

Nice tour in Fort Portal
4/5

We had a nice time with Immaculate in Fort Portal. She made a special tour for us as we did not have so much time so we could see all the best places in Fort Portal. She gave us many explanations and we really appreciated the tour.

Cheap but Unorganized!
4/5

First off I would recommend this company but only because it is extra cheap for the same vacation you would get with a safari company that charged double. You must be aware that regardless of what budget company you use, you will not be going on safaris with this company rather you are joining groups of others going to the same location as you aware temporarily. Example: I was picked up at the airport and taken to a hotel where I thought I was joining my tour but the group that picked me up didn't share my whole itinerary only the next two days and then i was shuttled to join a group sharing my next two days. Every other day I had to worry that I would actually be sticking to my itinerary African Paradise Safaris sent me. Of course that didn't happen. I booked Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli with solo lodging and a lot of afternoon game drives..instead they took me to Maasai Mara, Amboseli, Lake Nakuru where I had to share a room and ended up with morning drives and really long drives to the next location following the drive. Maasai Mara to Amboseli ended up being 12 hours in the car just to transit. My itinerary included a Maasai Village tour with no additional fee..I was asked to pay $10. The tour guide called African Paradise Safaris and they declined to pay for it at first. Great to see the animals but it did not feel like a vacation.

Good organization, flexible and affordable.
4/5

Good organization, flexible and affordable, Peter is a good manager and his staff is really professional and very friendly. The only defect has been the Arusha Center Inn hotel, better to be avoided, but Peter will surely find another one much better.

knowledge, arrangement & moderate comfort level make you feel at home even before Maya, tiger queen!
4/5

They are themselves wildlife enthusiasts.... hence understand the nitty- gitties of safaris whether by cruiser, cycle or walking.... along with lots of information's regarding birds, antelops, carnivores& herbivores etc half of which the tourists might have missed during safari....
In any field real experts are few and here also the driving force Dr Saumitra Chatterji(Chattopadhyay) will need further supportive experts to widen his passion &business for the benefit of human & non- human world......
The last but not the least .. but for support of Dr's friend &colleague Mr B.D this wouldn't have reached this height !
I wish them all good wishes with a request to ponder upon some price discounts to senior citizens like me( 70 yrs).

We were met by Ibrahim at the airport, where we were introduced to our driver Fredy. The full trip it was well organised and Fredy took care of us. We were very lucky we saw the big5. The accommodation was good,especially the camping at Serengeti. Great camping site and great personnel , Osukupu!!
Would recommend this trip to everyone

The tour was generally well organized.
4/5

All the safari games were excellent the drivers as well. There were often unexpected changes and frequent deviations from the scheduled hotels and transfers .
Service very good.
Hotels very good (if not changes would be excellent)
Price very good.
I would recommend to others and choice Karibu safaris again.
