4 days Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru safari with Francis Faru – Jocky Tours! 🇰🇪
From the very beginning, Faru was professional, kind, knowledgeable and incredibly attentive. He knows the parks exceptionally well and always knew where to go and when to be there. Thanks to his experience and instincts, we had some truly unforgettable wildlife encounters and saw so much more than we could have imagined
What we appreciated most was that Faru didn’t simply “drive us around”. He was genuinely involved in creating the experience.
Faru made our safari feel personal, not like just another tour. His enthusiasm and passion for what he does really made a difference.
Maasai Mara was already a dream for us, but Francis helped turn it into an experience we will remember for the rest of our lives. 🦁🐘🦒
If you are planning a safari in Kenya, we highly recommend asking for Faru as your guide. You will be in very good hands! We will defintely come back and specifically ask for him to be our guide ❤️

Rescue team!
First of all we want to say BIG thank you for this company, especially to Taher, who made our life much easier and helped us a lot.
We were planning our trip for 3 months and were really looking forward to our 6 days safari in Kenya. Sadly we didn't expected the situation we came through. We came to Nairobi early in the morning, waiting for the driver booked by another company who didn't showed up. It wasn't a problem, we booked a taxi, but same company suppose to provide our 6 days safari next morning, in the afternoon they wrote to us that they had some made up problems and could not provide us our trip. So we realized that it was all a fraud, we were in Nairobi with no tour, no hotel and no refund.
My friend started to search for another tours, but it was high season and we suppose to leave already next morning. That time my friend wrote to the White horse safaris, who replied almost immideatly. We told them our story and they found us 3 spots right away, leaving next morning. But the problem was that we already trusted one agency with working legal license and was kind of afraid to trust another one. So Taher suggested to come to our hotel (even if it was far from his office) he came with his colleague, we talked and he assured us that everything will be OK, and we will leave for our long waiting safari next morning (even let us make photo of his passport and company licence) Long story short we really went next morning to the marvellous safari, everything was arranged perfectly, our safari car driver was really experienced one, thanks to him we saw all the animals, even the rare ones. Taher guide us all through the way asking if there was any problems or do we need assistance, so he pampered us up with care.
We really appreciate and gratefull to all the White horse safaris team to turn our awfull situation to minor discomfort and let us experience the wild life of Kenya. Looking forward to tell about it to all our friends back home and would definitely suggest to arrange it throug White horse safaris. ❤️

Perfect Honeymoon Safari
We had the most incredible honeymoon with Extraordinary Africa and couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Alex was fantastic from start to finish and made the whole process of planning our trip so easy and stress-free.
Our honeymoon took us to Kenya for an amazing safari, followed by Zanzibar, where we stayed at Pongwe Beach and then spent our final night in Stone Town. Every part of the itinerary was perfect, and we loved how each destination offered something completely different. The safari was an unforgettable experience, followed by the perfect amount of relaxation on the beach, with Stone Town being a lovely way to finish the trip.
Everything was so well organised, from the accommodation and transfers to the flights and arrangements along the way. Everything ran incredibly smoothly, which meant we could completely switch off and enjoy our honeymoon without having to worry about a thing.
Alex was also brilliant at helping us plan a trip that felt really special and suited exactly what we wanted from our honeymoon. We genuinely couldn’t fault a thing. It was the perfect honeymoon and we came home with so many amazing memories. Thank you so much to Alex and the whole Extraordinary Africa team!

Amazing
Our experience with Serengeti African Tours was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very first conversation, everything was handled with warmth, care, and incredible attention to detail. We arranged our entire trip through WhatsApp with Neema, who was absolutely wonderful throughout the planning process. She listened carefully to what we wanted and went above and beyond to create an itinerary that felt truly personal to us, including a one-day hike on Mount Kilimanjaro that made the journey even more unique.
And then there was Dickson — an exceptional guide who made our safari truly unforgettable. His knowledge of the parks, wildlife, and animal behavior was remarkable. He seemed to know exactly where to go and when to be there, always with patience and respect for the animals. Thanks to him, we were fortunate enough to see the Big Five and countless other incredible moments in the wild.
One experience, in particular, will stay with us forever: watching a lion hunt warthogs. Dickson found us an incredible position where we could witness the entire scene from a privileged viewpoint. It was one of those rare moments when you simply stop speaking, take in what is happening before your eyes, and realize how extraordinary nature can be.
The accommodations were also exceptional throughout the journey. A special mention must go to Serena Lodge in the Serengeti and Suricata Boma in Lake Manyara, both of which added their own charm and comfort to an already incredible adventure.
Looking back, it is difficult to choose a single favorite moment because every day brought something new and unforgettable. What made the experience even more meaningful was the feeling that we were not simply following an itinerary — we were being genuinely cared for throughout the entire journey.
My husband and I will carry these memories with us for the rest of our lives. This safari was so much more than a trip; it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that touched us deeply.
A heartfelt thank you to Neema, Dickson, and the entire Serengeti African Tours team for making our African adventure everything we dreamed it would be — and so much more. ❤️🇹🇿
We would wholeheartedly recommend Serengeti African Tours to anyone dreaming of experiencing Tanzania.

Incredible service from the beginning to the end
The whole experience with Serengeti African Tours was extraordinary. We did the whole negotiation and conversation through Whatsapp and Neema, who we talked at first was really caring with all of the details. She manage to tailor make our tour adding a one-day hike to Kilimanjaro.
We were assigned with the guide Dickson and we couldn’t be happier. He knew the parks like he owned it, went for all the places and managed to find the big 5 easily.
All the accommodations were incredible with honorable mentions to Serena Lounge in Serengeti and Suricata Boma in Lake Manyara.
Everything was perfect and I know my wife and I won’t forget any experience we had. The high point we experienced was the lion hunting warthogs, which Dickson got us a privileged site to watch it.

Amazing
We booked a 6-day private safari with mid-range lodges, visiting Tarangire National Park, the Eastern and Central Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara National Park.
From the initial consultation to the end of the safari, everything was exceptionally well organized. Jerome was always professional, friendly, and helpful during the planning process and took all of our wishes into consideration.
Our guide Edgar was very experienced and taught us a lot about Tanzania’s flora and fauna. We were particularly impressed by his ability to find the best spots, allowing us to observe the animals from very close by – always while maintaining the necessary respect for the animals.
The selection of lodges and hotels was also excellent. The daily lunches were plentiful and very tasty. We were always well supplied with drinks during the drives – even beer and wine were included.
Our expectations for the safari were not only met but exceeded. It was also great that, because of our late departure flight, Jerome arranged a dinner for us along with a small city tour.
A huge thank you to Jerome, Edgar, and the entire team for this unforgettable safari! We would book with them again anytime and can 100% recommend this company! 🦁🐘🦒🌍

A friendly, professional and well-organised experience, with excellent local knowledge and support
Denzel supported us from the beginning to develop a bespoke itinerary that included various experiences around Malawi and Zambia. When in both countries they kept in close touch and provided support with any queries or challenges we faced, the accommodation they selected on our behalf was all really good with Thornicroft in South Luangwa a real highlight of the trip. The vehicle they provided on a self drive basis was in excellent condition and allowed us to move around both countries comfortably and securely.
I would not hesitate to recommend Land and Lake Safaris as they have excellent in country knowledge and we felt they provided just he right amount of support to help us navigate culture and geography, with all staff and especially Denzel and Jim being very friendly and approachable.
A really memorable trip for us and we look forward to returning again soon.

Fantastic safari. Went above and beyond
We had a great safari with Kihindo Tours. Michael was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable on the animals and history of Tanzania. And a fantastic driver through some hairy traffic!! He went above and beyond.
Everything ran to plan. They were there to pick us up at the scheduled time everyday. Met us at our hotel and dropped us off. Same with the train station to and from Morogoro.The accomodation and food was great.
We saw so many animals. I would recommend this tour operator
