Friendly, but not reliable
safari experience 10/10
drivers 10/10
but I have to give makini 3/10 because:
When you arrive they ask you to pay in cash, but they don't have change on them. So I got promised that they would give me my money on the last day, but I never saw the contact person again.
Also when I was seperated with the rest of the group, since I was the only one left and I went to a hotel for my last day of safari, I tried to get in contact with my contact person and he did not pick up the phone or text back for 2 hours. They were responsible for dinner, since it was included. I had no dinner, I was starving. And no one had told me at what time I'd be picked up the day after. Also the next morning no breakfast, so 24 hours without food. The contact person called me back after I was already asleep and told me at what time they'd pick me up, but ignored the fact that I had no dinner.
They asked me for my t-shirt size, also never saw that t-shirt.
I would recommend the safari a 100%, just not the company.

Amazing Experience Safari!
We had an amazing 4-day Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru safari with Silver Spark Africa, and it exceeded all our expectations.
Our tour guide, Samwel, was outstanding throughout the entire safari. He was knowledgeable, professional, and always willing to answer our questions about the wildlife and Maasai culture. On our first day in the Maasai Mara, he made our visit to the Maasai village especially enjoyable and informative. Thanks to his experience, we spotted many animals that we would have otherwise missed, making every game drive exciting and memorable. We also loved our accommodations, which were clean, comfortable, and offered excellent food and service.
A special thanks to Kevin, who made sure everyone, was comfortable and well taken care of throughout the trip. He kept us informed during the game drives and went above and beyond by arranging a wonderful Nairobi city excursion after we returned from the safari. When our Kenya Airways flight was delayed by almost more than three hours due to a technical issue, Kevin even helped us secure a hotel where we could freshen up and relax while waiting for our flight.
The dedication and exceptional service provided by both Samwel and Kevin made this safari truly unforgettable. We highly recommend Silver Spark Africa to anyone looking for a well-organized, memorable, and enjoyable safari experience in Kenya.

nice and genuine
The first day Janet kindly led us to buy the SIM card and told us a lot about the Safari. The guide Augustin is also very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the animals.

Simply Amazing
Simply amazing! Highly recommended! From initial enquires to the booking of the trip to the entire trip, everything was just seamless and smooth! Emails and communications were answered within hours (considering our time difference between countries) and all our requirements were handled perfectly! Kathi from African Welcome Safaris planned the most wonderful trip for us !
All our activities and all the logistics were extremely well planned. We didn’t have to worry about anything!
Would definitely recommend African Welcome Safaris! And we are looking forward to planning our next adventure with them!

Masai mara
Excellent safari expérience. Our guides ( samwel and tetu) were very dedicated to getting us the best experience. They went above and beyond to make sure we could see all the big 5 and other animals with amazing views every time ! They also managed to find beautiful spots for breakfast and lunch on site and always offered to take nice pictures ! They were always patient and accommodating to our needs.

Great trip with decent price
I booked via its official website. The overall experience was great. All communication were on a timely manner. No requests were left over if you asked for it.
It took about 12xx dollars for a 8days budget tours which is great value for the money. You can see all types of animals especially the five species everyone is looking for.
Guide named johny Jackson are responsive and experienced. He always manages to get the best view and get close to the animals.
Tour is well planned. You get to see the most popular animals in the park and I had a great time here

Trip of a lifetime with the best guide
We just had the trip of a lifetime thanks to Lion King and our guide, Geofrey. We visited Tarangire, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara, and saw every animal imaginable—some of them multiple times. Communication was excellent right from the start of planning the trip, and the accommodations were perfect as well. But our biggest thanks go to Geofrey, our guide. He is a highly experienced guide who always made us feel comfortable and safe, explained everything he could about the animals, and always answered our questions thoughtfully. He was friendly and a great companion without ever invading our privacy, and he brilliantly managed every part of this trip, which we will never forget. Asante sana!

Exceptional Safari, Exceptional Team
Here’s a polished version that reads naturally while keeping your enthusiasm and personal experience:
We contacted Steve as soon as we arrived in Nairobi with a request for a personalised safari package. We wanted to set off the following day, and Steve managed to organise everything within an hour. He gave us several vehicle options and worked with us to create an itinerary covering the very best destinations.
We trusted Steve’s knowledge and experience, and we’re so glad we did. From the moment we were picked up, everything was taken care of, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy the adventure.
Steve also made sure we had some of the best rooms at our safari lodges. We woke up to breathtaking views of Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli and enjoyed a magnificent hilltop view in Tsavo East. He arranged a very comfortable pop-up Land Cruiser, which we highly recommend if you’re travelling between multiple locations.
Our driver, Fred, made the trip even more memorable. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the parks and was determined to find even the most elusive wildlife, including the shy lions. He was reliable, professional, and a great conversationalist—we shared many laughs throughout the journey. We would strongly recommend requesting Fred as your driver.
Overall, this truly was the trip of a lifetime, and we have Steve and Fred to thank for making it so special. We are incredibly grateful and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Services provided 100% as agreed, recommended!
Moja is a great value for money option for a multi day safari in Kruger NP. I had a group of 11 PAX for a 5 day itinerary and everything was respected as agreed. The park is huge so I would not recommend less then 2 full days. Definitely would come back to South Africa and do another itinerary with Moja.
