Excellent service and planning
We didn't really travel with Paul due to dinner unavoidable circumstances but we worked with him to plan our trip and itinerary. Paul was extremely patient and kind with us throughout the process, and very nice even while we had to cancel it, even though he had direct considerable time and effort in planning it for us. We are sure that if we'd taken the trip, it would have been amazing

Richard spoiled us with the best sites to watch animals in a respectful, caring way. He is the best!
We had the best time!
Richard, our safari guide and driver is a very knowledgable professional who knows how to approach sites and animals to get the best pictures in a respectful, caring way with nature, which is very important to me.
He does "his magic" (to see many animals and sites) because he is a supportive friend connected to many other guides who continuously approach him. He has a deep sense of the parks and will always make his best to make a memorable journey.
The hotels, food and travels were always safe and according to planned, we had no last minute surprises or changes.
Richard is an easygoing, respectful and hardworking professional who always made the group feel safe and well taken cared of, he made sure continuously that we all were having a good time. This I think, that was especially important because in our group there were women traveling alone and they all felt really safe.
I got many inspiring notes to my journal based on Richard's perspective to life and nature. We even put together a very cool spotify playlist to remember the journey. I would definitely suggest approaching Lenchada Safaris and Richard for your plans to safari in Africa.

One of THE best companies for Kenya safari
We had the great opportunity to work with Paul and Ways of Africa on our Kenya safari trip. Paul was extremely accommodative and catered to all our demands. He understood our group's needs and was extremely patient. Highly recommend Paul and Ways of Africa to anyone who plans to visit Kenya!

Bison Safaris organized a last minute tour for us to Amboseli, for a short trip. They found us a beautiful camp/lodge and a fantastic guide/driver on short notice. Thank you Maggie for your patience with us and making everything for us for our perfect safari.
Hope to see you again in another beautiful safari

Extremely Professional
My girlfriend and I went on a 7 day safari organised by Hyrax. We had an excellent service from point of enquiry until the end of our trip.
Emmah was extremely helpful in tailoring us a bespoke Safari route from Nairobi to Mombasa. And our driver guide, Tony, was very knowledgeable about the history, the culture and the wildlife of Kenya.
We had the absolute trip of a lifetime and I’m not sure how we’ll ever manage to top this trip!

Aussies on Safari with Jon
If Uganda isn't on your African itinerary I highly recommend it should be and also on that itinerary should be a trip run by "Safaris by Jon"
My partner and I booked a private safari with Jon and it was absolutely amazing, he picked us up from Entebbe Airport then we began our adventure out to the west side of Uganda as our first stop was Queen Elizabeth National Park. After a morning game drive we went out to see the Chimpanzees at Kyambura Gorge which was one of the best safari days you could ask for! The accommodation Jon booked for us was great and the food was beautiful!
After Queen Elizabeth we headed to Bwindi to see the Mountain Gorillas. Again Jon nailed it with our accommodation setting us up in a comfortable room in a lodge that does great food, the lodge also packs you lunch for when you are out Gorilla Trekking.
From Bwindi we spent our last night at Lake Bunyonyi, which is a peaceful place to kick back and relax and look at all the amazing photos from Safari.
If you are thinking about coming to Uganda and want a great Safari experience I would highly recommend reaching out to Jon! We really enjoyed our time with him!
On another note, the vehicle he took us on tour in was a 4x4 van with a pop top roof for safari drives so it was the perfect vehicle for roadtrip comfort and game drives.
Overall 10/10

Local operator, great service!
After an exhaustive search, Shanjoy was the company chosen due to the fluid communication I had at all times and its ability to adapt to my requirements.
It was an unforgettable 10 days of safari. A unique experience that I highly recommend. Especially if it can be done in the low season, as was our case.
Thanks to Patrick and his entire team for their professionalism and a special mention to our driver in Kenya, Joseph, whose driving skills were magnificent!
