Carlos was amazing! He made sure that we had the BEST experience and was great company too.
From initial booking right through to being dropped off at our final hotel in Nairobi, the whole safari experience with Beacon Safaris has been smooth and very well organised. Everyone who we have met or dealt with have been so friendly and helpful.
Winfred's communication throughout has been excellent.
However, the person who made our trip the most perfect experience ever was our guide Carlos. We couldnt have wished for a better guide. It was clear from the start that Carlos was determined to give us an amazing experience; he was good fun to be around, very knowledgeable about the animals and the culture and he was fantastic at spotting different animals and getting us into the best spots to view them. Carlos frequently went abpve and beyond and we are so grateful.
We loved visiting the different parks and we saw so many animals. There were several times that we were left speechless.
We highly recommend Beacon Safaris and we highly recommend Carlos as guide.

The best tour operator to ever exist
Ecky, (the tour guide) was better than i could ever asked for, he would light up the truck with his smile and amazing stories. Suricata Safaris have been overall an excellent experience, the food was AMAZING, the staff so so nice and welcoming and the safari itself out of this world.
I also choose to sleep in a tent which was an amazing experience, to hear all the animal noises, the lions roaring was surreal. Even seeing the hyenans outside of the camp was so cool.
Ecky showed us so many great animals, and was so knowledgeable about them. I saw a tinga I never even imagined, like lion cubs, cheetah babies and being one step away from an eating lioness.
I can’t recommend having him as your guide and Suricata safaris enough, it was my first safari ever and I can’t be more pleased. 5 Stars!

An unforgettable experience with Ezekiel!
Ezekiel was an incredible guide during our safari in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. He is super friendly, attentive, professional, and highly recommended. Thanks to him, we were able to see all the animals we had dreamed of seeing! 🦁🐘🦒
Not only is he an excellent guide, but he is also a fantastic and reliable driver, always making us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trip. He knows the parks very well, knows where to find the animals, and does everything he can to make sure you have the best possible experience.
We felt we were in very good hands with him, and we couldn’t have chosen a better guide. If you’re planning a safari in Tanzania, I recommend Ezekiel 100%! Thank you so much for making this adventure such an unforgettable memory! 🐘❤️

An unforgettable experience, thanks to Ezequiel
An absolutely spectacular and unforgettable experience, thanks to Ezekiel. We toured the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater with him, and we couldn’t have chosen a better guide.
From the very first moment, he took care of everything; he was always attentive, kind, and incredibly helpful. His knowledge of the area is impressive—he knows exactly where to go and how to spot animals that would otherwise likely go unnoticed. Thanks to him, we were able to enjoy the wildlife in all its splendor and experience truly unique moments.
Beyond being a great professional, he shows a deep passion for his work, making every single day a special experience. It’s clear that he genuinely enjoys showcasing his country and sharing his knowledge.
If you are considering a safari in Tanzania, we recommend Ezekiel 100%. He was a fundamental part of a trip we will never forget. Thank you so much for everything!

Met all my expectations and more
I am very happy with the services provided by Beyond Travel. They were on the spot coming up with an itinerary to include all the things that I had wanted to do and see and answered all the questions I had. They were punctual and executed the entire itinerary smoothly. They even accommodated my ad hoc requests during the tour. The gorilla trek was amazing. It will be one of my most memorable experiences. They arranged my stay at the nearby lake in a hotel with an amazing view of the lake. A boat ride on the lake was not part of the itinerary. When I expressed interest in it, it was promptly arranged at a reasonable additional cost. Chris, who the driver, was a very pleasant person to be with. It was he who made the on the spot arrangements during the tour. I am very pleased with Beyond Travel and I would definitely use them again.

Completely thrilling experience
The beauty of this experience goes far beyond the flawless organization or the stunning landscapes, it is about the soul of the safari. While seeing the wildlife in their natural habitat was incredible, the true highlight was the warmth of people. They made us feel so welcome, ensuring every detail was perfect and genuinely caring for our happiness at every turn. Africa has truly claimed a piece of my heart, and I cannot thank the team enough for such a profound
experience.

Once in a lifetime experience - thanks to Alytexx Safaris
We had a fantastic 6 day Safari experience with Alytexx Safaris at Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara.
Ali was super flexible in changing the itinerary to our needs and wishes, like extending the safari by a day or changing accomodations. He also reserved the Madaraka Express (train) tickets for us for our return to Nairobi. Everything worked as promised, so we found Alytexx very reliable.
For the Safari itself we had an amazing driver and guide (Philip) who was very experienced and brought us to all the animals - including the top 5 - with the best possible spot. He did not hesitate to risk a few scratches to the vehicle to get us the perfect view on a leopard between some trees... Yet we always felt very safe with him. He also explained everything about the wildlif, nature and Kenya in general.
The accomodations were top notch, including the food and catering for dietary requirements (my wife is vegan). Wr even got an upgrade to the private wing in the Soroy Mara Lodge with a tent with river and hippo view!!! Truly amazing.
It was a once in a lifetime experience, but if we ever come back for a Kenyan safari, we would surely choose Alytexx again.

Wajefya installed confidence when booking from overseas by being efficient and being responsive to
We wanted to visit Serengeti and in particular see the Great Migration . We are so appreciative that our contact at Wajefya advised us of a programme that let us experience the great diversity of terrain and wildlife in the Tanzanian national parks. In addition to the Serengeti we also visited the Tarangire National Park and the Ongorongoro Cráter. We had thought a private safari was out of our reach but Wajefya’s competitive pricing made this wonderful trip possible .
From the first the communication was excellent and their flexibility when we had to change dates was impressive and reassuring .
The arrangements were faultless, for airport pick up and drop off as well as pre and post safari hotel accommodation in Arusha. Giving us the opportunity to meet the team and our guide the day before our adventure began was another example of their professionalism.
John, our guide was exemplary; attentive, knowledgeable, and particularly in understanding how we wanted to experience the wildlife. Rather than simply stopping for photographs and moving on, he appreciated that we wanted to quietly observe the animals sometimes for 20 minutes or more, allowing us to really appreciate their natural behaviour. His patience and understanding greatly enhanced our Safari experience..
We were also fortunate to have our own personal chef, Nico, who provided us with a wonderful variety of freshly prepared meals, both in the camp and for our breakfast and lunches out on safari
We wholeheartedly recommends Wajefya expeditions to anyone consider considering a Safari in Tanzania and could not have wished for a better experience.

I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better tour operator! Papa Johns was absolutely excellent at wh
I contacted almost 10–20 safari agencies before choosing Sunny Creeks, and I’m so glad I made the right choice!
James was my point of contact, and right from our first conversation on Instagram, he was absolutely amazing. He was quick to respond, understood all my requirements and planned an itinerary that suited us perfectly.
One thing I really appreciated was his availability. He was always just a message away, and every concern or doubt I had was clarified immediately. From airport pickup to hotel check-ins, check-outs, meals and all the arrangements, everything was perfectly organised and on time. There wasn’t a single delay from their side!
What impressed me even more was that James checked in with me every evening to make sure everything was going well. Even after receiving the full payment, his responsiveness and attention remained the same.
I’m extremely happy with the entire experience. I would blindly recommend Sunny Creeks and James to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. Worth every penny spend . They were simply amazing! ❤️
