A great experience for the whole family.
We booked a three-day stay with Kilipath African Safari. Lydia was very helpful and accommodating from start to finish in planning the trip and arranging all the arrangements.
After arriving in Arusha, we visited Tarangire on the first day, and the next day we drove to the Ngorongoro Crater with the same driver, Mayunga. We were happy that we were able to observe wild animals such as elephants, zebras, giraffes, leopards, lions, hippos, flamingos, buffaloes and others in their natural environment of beautiful nature. We were also lucky and saw the big five, although the rhino was very far away, at least that's what the driver told us. :) The driver was very communicative and was able to answer our questions about not only the animals, but also the lives of the local people, interesting facts from history and some information about tribal conflicts.
On the third day, together with our guides Lydia and Geofrey, we visited the Materuni waterfall with a breathtaking view of Kilimanjaro. During the ride to the waterfall, we used the time to chat with our guides and learned a lot of interesting information about the life and customs of the people of Tanzania. After swimming in the waterfall, we visited a local village for lunch with a demonstration of coffee processing, including roasting and subsequent tasting. At our request, the guides took us to a shop with truly beautiful goods, where we bought local pictures in the Tinga tinga style. :) All services provided and arranged by Kilipath African Safari were at a professional level and we recommend this trip to the mainland.

Unforgettable Safari Experience with Guide Kikitu
Our 5-day safari with Jocky Tours and Safaris was an unforgettable experience and absolutely worth every dollar.
We visited Masai Mara National Park, a Maasai village, Nakuru, Lake Nakuru, and Hell’s Gate, and from day one everything was well organized. I traveled with my girlfriend, and during the trip our group grew into an amazing mix of people from Spain, Romania, the USA, South Korea, and more. Thanks to our guide Kikitu, we quickly became one friendly group and had great fun throughout the whole journey.
Kikitu is an outstanding guide in every possible way — extremely knowledgeable about wildlife, an excellent and safe driver, always on time, very well organized, and genuinely friendly. His English and communication were great, and he was especially good at keeping the whole group connected. He truly was the glue that made this experience special.
We were incredibly lucky with wildlife sightings. We saw giraffes, zebras, gazelles, buffaloes, warthogs, cheetahs, lions, leopards, black rhinos, hippos, and many more. Honestly, it’s hard to think of an animal living there that we didn’t see. Kikitu always seemed to know exactly where to go and when.
The safari vehicle was in great condition. Some roads were rough, which turned parts of the drive into a bit of a roller-coaster — free massage included 😅 — but that’s part of the real safari adventure.
Accommodation was okay and clean, nothing luxury but perfectly fine for a safari. In one camp the hot water was not working, which is worth mentioning, but the hotel pool later was a great bonus. Food was good, though a bit repetitive (mostly chicken, rice, spinach), but the fresh fruit was exceptional.
The price was very fair for what we received, and the value for money is excellent. Tips are welcomed by the staff but never forced or asked for — you tip only if you want and if you feel it’s deserved, which we really appreciated.
Useful tip: if you plan to pay at the office, bring cash.
Card payments have a 5% bank fee, which can add up (for us it would have been about $55 for two people)
— much better spent during the safari itself.
This was definitely not our last visit. We are already planning to come back with a bigger group of friends and even our parents. We were not sure if this kind of trip would be suitable for older people, but now we know it absolutely is - and we could easily imagine it even with kids, as we saw other families doing it.
Highly recommended, especially if you get Kikitu as your guide.

The booking contact person, tour guide, and customer service were exceptional.
Paxton, our safari guide, made the 6 day venture so enjoyable. He was kind, competent, and quite knowledgeable. He had a calm, patient spirit. I appreciated his assertiveness when it came to finding opportunities for animal sightings. He was also adept at explaining the social behavior we were witnessing.

Great Accommodation and professional guide
We did a 5-day safari in January covering Masai Mara, Tsavo East, and Tsavo West, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Traveling in January turned out to be a perfect choice—fewer crowds, great weather, and excellent wildlife sightings.
Masai Mara was spectacular, with wide open plains and abundant wildlife. We saw lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and many other animals during our game drives. January offered clear skies and fantastic visibility, making the experience even better.
Tsavo East amazed us with its vast landscapes and famous red elephants. The parks felt peaceful and less crowded, allowing us to fully enjoy the scenery and wildlife without rush.
Tsavo West provided a beautiful contrast with its hills, volcanic landscapes, and highlights like Mzima Springs. The variety of scenery across the three parks made the safari feel well-rounded and exciting.
Our guide was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly, ensuring we were comfortable and always in the best spots for wildlife viewing. Accommodations were clean and comfortable, and the entire trip was well organized.
Overall, this January safari was unforgettable and exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend this 5-day safari to anyone looking for an authentic and well-paced wildlife adventure in Kenya.

Like in a movie
Four days of safari to feel like you're starring in a National Geographic documentary! Perfect organization, punctual, attentive to every request, and above all, a Maasai guide, John, who speaks fluent Italian and accompanies you on a discovery of the African savannah as if you were at home. Simply unforgettable...thanks to him, we spotted every animal imaginable! And after an intense day, we always stayed in wonderful and comfortable places expertly recommended by James! So, what are you waiting for? With James, you can't go wrong!

We Tour Safaris exceeded our expectations in every way.
Our first contact, Maureen, is exceptional with clear and timely communication. She is a delightful person and greeted us on arrival with warmth and delight. Our guide, Paxton, is a gem. He is professional, knowledgeable, flexible, has a good sense of humor, and is an excellent driver! Highlights included a bike ride/hike in Hells Gate, close-in hippo sightings at Lake Nakuru , and seeing all the animals possible in Masai Mara. Our multi-generational family of 6 will treasure this experience for a lifetime. Thank you, We Tours. You’re the best!

Amazing company, amazing hospitality, great experience!
10/10 recommend this company for your safari. Erick was helpful throughout the whole planning and booking process. Once we landed Emmanuel greeted us with a smile and started off to Arusha where he showed us around his hometown. The next day we were off on safari and we told Emmanuel what we wanted to see and do and he made it happen. We saw the big five, and so many more animals we didn’t even know we would see. He was so hospitable, and knew the area so well that he could find just about anything. When we had questions or slight changes we wanted to make to our plans he was happy to accommodate. I don’t think we could have had a better experience, it was awesome. Asante!

Fantastic Safari journey with highly-experienced guide
We enjoyed a 7-days itinerary (actually 5 Safari days) with Professional Safari. The journey brought us to Tarangire NP, Ngorongoro Crater, Ndutu, Serengeti NP and Lake Manyara NP. Highlights have been Ngorongoro, Ndutu and Serengeti. Ngorongoro delivers a fantastic scenery, Ndutu Game Drives feel like really being out into the wild and Serengeti is iconic with its unique landscape. Given the January season we were happy to see many cubs. Our driver Anthony is a highly experienced driver, always gentle and a pro in sharing his knowledge about Tanzanias wildlife.
Overall, we would book Professional Safari and Anthony again.
