Experience of my life
We spent 6 days on safari and in contact with the culture of Tanzania, trusting Afrishare, and they were the most beautiful days of our lives so far. The most important part of this experience was our guide, Mosses, who from the first moment he picked us up from the airport until the last, did not stop taking care of our needs, our safety and of course, having fun. Although we had a car breakdown that delayed us for 3 hours, Mosses managed not to lose our day and to continue our program normally until the end. Thank you for the unforgettable experience and we hope to see you again soon!

Pure excellence in all ways
From the moment we have met Phillimon, our guide until the end of the trip everything was perfect. He was, on time, very professional. We were going on a two days one night safari trip. He was there with his nice typical safari truck (the truck was insanely awesome). He had water and soft drinks for us.
Everything was well organized. From the first morning game drive, the awesome buffet diner in a grand hotel by the river to the boat cruise safari. After the boat, we went back in the truck until the end of the day where our camp site was already settled. On site, was waiting for us two other really nice dudes who had previously set up the camp. They were there cooking a nice and healthy dinner for us. While waiting we had drinks and chips.
We had a good night of sleep, a good breakfast and we left early to see more animals on the second day.
Phillimon knows a lot on the animals. He always have a fun and interesting fact about all of them. We asked to see lions and he know where to find them. We saw hundreds of elephants. Thousands of impalas, girafes, hippos, kudus, water buffalos, pumbas and Timon and much more.
I would recommend the same trip to all my friends and family.
If I had a few words to describe this incredible moment I’d say:
Abondance, professionalism, confidence.
Thanks for everything Phillimon. You’re the man

Phine Safaris were excellent from the start , put together a personalised private safari and beach holiday at reasonable price .

I took train myself to Diani beach , met there for transport to hotel . Baobab resort was superb , the beach is stunning , again amazing food and staff . As my flight from Nairobi changed Kelvin was very responsive to change time of transport to airport via WhatsApp . Transport driver details for airport/train transfers given by WhatsApp so know who is picking you up and eases communication . I had an amazing holiday experience which exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Phine Safaris and thanks to Kelvin , Moses and the team .

Amazing 4 days in Serengeti
We had a great time on our Serengeti 4-day fly-in safari with Kiriche Safari. Everything was professionally arranged by Peter and executed by our knowledgeable guide Francis. The Lodge (Dove Serengeti) was also top class.
The balloon safari included in the tour was amazing. Kiriche use a great local company for that and they didn't disappoint.
I have no idea how Francis does it but we saw 4 out of big 5 within two hours from being picked up at Seronera airstrip. As the trip went on, the sightings went from strength to strength. Highlight being a family of lions with four cubs being observed just by us.
Finally, Peter massively helped when KLM lost our bags. He communicated with the company on our behalf and sorted out delivery to Serengeti once the bags made it to Arusha.
Cannot recommend Kiriche Safari enough.

The tour operator has organized a perfect adventure with amazing surprises.
We booked the tour spontaneously few months before departure. Organizations and communications were very easy going and clear as per WhatsApp. The planing went quick and every upcoming questions were answered within the day.
During the adventure everyone was friendly and kind. The tour was perfectly organized and everything went as planned. We had a wonderful time without any complications. Our guide was extremely invested into showing us all we wanted to see. Thanks to him we were able to see much more than we expected in only very few days. He was very competent, professional and familiar.
The lodges and food were very superb! With swimming pools and beautiful environments. The trip was worth every cent.

Incredible Experience
We were traveling with our 5 months old baby and naturally, I had a lot of questions before for Ritesh and his team. Ritesh took the time and answered all my questions. I had made a few requests mainly for baby related things and the moment I got there, I saw everything was already there.
The safari ride went super smoothly as the guides were very helpful. Everytime I had to nurse the baby, the guide would slow down. They were all super accommodating.
Would highly recommend Shayona tours for your safari adventures!

Dream Safari, with amazing people!
Traveling with Kevic Tours was an amazing experience.
I first contacted them after finding their page on Safari Bookings, which was an extraordinary coincidence. We decided to choose a local company, knowing they would provide the best knowledge and guidance; we were completely right!
From the beginning, everything was exceptional. Kelvin was incredibly thoughtful and fulfilled every single one of our requests. Having the perfect safari trip was extremely important to me, as it was my dad’s dream journey, and I wanted to build it exactly as he would want it. We carefully crafted the itinerary together, and they even helped us book a room at the Salt Lick Lodge in Tsavo, which was one of the highlights of the journey.
We went back and forth until we had the perfect route, covering all the places we wanted to visit and combining both air and land travel. The booking process was smooth and really straightforward.
When we arrived in Kenya, we were personally welcomed by Kelvin and our first safari guide, John. They were warm, kind, and made us feel safe and comfortable from the very first moment and also throughout the entire safari.
We visited incredible places such as Lake Nakuru (Kelvin’s recommendation and definitely one our favorite spots of the trip), Masai Mara, Amboseli National Park, and Tsavo East and West. The hotels and lodges were wonderful. Our favorite in Kenya was definitely Oilepo in Amboseli, where the staff was incredibly kind and our tent faced the amazing Mount Kilimanjaro. They made all our wishes come true, including visiting a Maasai village and taking a hot air balloon ride over the Masai Mara.
John was exceptional. He explained all the wildlife we encountered and even carried books in the car to help identify birds and species. One of our favorite memories with him was in the Masai Mara, where we spent almost two hours quietly observing an encounter between a male elephant and a pride of lions. He was patient and stayed with us until we were ready to leave.
After Kenya, we flew to Tanzania, where we met our second guide, Erick. We visited the Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, and Arusha. We were absolutely thrilled with our stay at Osinon Camp in the Serengeti; it was trully unforgettable. Hearing lions roar at night, enjoying amazing food, and feeling the genuine hospitality of everyone at the camp made it magical. They even sang to us when we arrived and again when we left; it was really emotional to say goodbye.
Erick was incredibly kind and taught us Swahili phrases throughout our journey. We had an amazing time with him; often chatting, laughing, and spending hours searching for wildlife. We remember so many stories with him, like the time he drove across the Serengeti absolutely determined to help us find lions.
I cannot thank Kevic Tours enough. It was an incredible, unforgettable journey. They made our stay truly memorable, and we left with wonderful friendships. Choosing a local company was the best decision, it made all the difference in creating a once-in-a-lifetime safari.
It was a dream come true for us, and we highly recommend booking with them!
