Amazing safari
We had a great experience with papa john, the best guide. He knows many things about animals and we saw all the big 5 easily thanks to him ( we saw also an amazing lions battle!) Because he knows animals habits.
Food and accomadation are very nice!
Thank you papa john

A great experience in many different places, full of animals and emotions
The tour has been great, Masai Mara has been one of the best experiences in my life and I've seen cheetahs and leopards, which I hadn't seen in the past years. Another exciting experience was Hell's gate, and a must see is going to the Gorge (optional). I highly suggest crescent island as well, there's a bit of extra to pay but totally worth it.

One of the best company I met in Tanzania
This was my second time to visit Tanzania and did the safari. Last year it was another company and it was kind of a disaster but these guys, Elisha, Justin and Daudi know that they are doing. They are great with spotting animals and great drivers too. It only took them few minutes to change the wheels when there is a problem, and trust me you don’t want to be stuck in the middle of the safari with mot work vehicle.
Overall, we did see all big 5, not just see but bunch of them. Everyone in the group loved the experience.

Very well organized, exceeded expectations.
Excellent fast communication, clear concise payment method, adaptable to our needs.
Really setup up a great experience with quality accommodation that was above our expectations, comfort and food quality was 5 stars! Views and experiences at the accommodation were truly superb.
Toyota 4x4 was in great condition and driver was very responsive if one of us felt driving was to fast etc, nothing was out of possibility, our every needs was catered to. Wildlife viewing was excellent! We were lucky and saw every animal on the list! Time was spent relaxing with wildlife interactions without feeling rushed. You can fully trust that Morningstar company is a great choice for safari's in Kenya.

Well organised, knowledgable, friendly , luxury experience
From first enquiry the communication was great , as we had some initial questions before booking this trip from overseas. The length of safari was perfect for us and we had a good feeling about the company.
Initial deposit was easy as was final payment.
Everything happens on the safari that was outlined in the safari summary from hotel pickup in Arusha, meeting at the airport in the Serengeti to drop off back in Arusha.
The accommodation on our trip was top notch luxury.
Our vehicle was modern and spacious for the 2 of us.
Our guide (Sam) was a legend and clearly had a lot of experience, especially as he was raised in the bush. You could tell he really cared about the animals. An advantage of these smaller safari companies is you get more experienced guides/ drivers.
We would strongly recommend using Thamani safari.

Very dedicated and professional
My friends and I booked an Amboseli safari with Jupicon late December 2025,their hospitality was remarkable and Martin (their guide) was always hands on and ensured we saw all the animals which made the experience even better.
Would highly recommend anyone to book with Jupicon Expeditions

Everything we could have asked for and more
From the beginning our tour with Papa John has been great, he provided plenty of information before every journey and explained what would be happening day by day so we were well informed.
During the tour he was extremely knowledgeable about the animals and masai people. You can tell he is extremely passionate about the animals and teaching visitors about them, he goes past just explaining the animals and their habitat but also has scientific explanations for why some things occur, we didn't have a question he couldn't answer.
While on the safari John identified a group of lions, he knew before it happened that the male and female was likely to mate and we were lucky to see the 10 seconds of wonder, he also spotted an older larger male nearby and kept close enough for us to get a great view of what would become a fight for dominance, his expertise meant we were truly fortunate to witness both events.
We've felt safe throughout our tour and have had everything we've needed, we would definitely recommend and hopefully work with Papa John and Jocky tours again.
