Kenya Cyling Safari
I did a 400 km cycle ride around Kenya and was very impressed by the organisation and support from Safari Joe. When I was off the bike we went on safari to the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha which was fabulous. Thank you for a great trip I will definitely be back again to see more of Africa with Safari Joe.

Avoid this company at all costs
I recently did a 4-day Safari with World Tours and Safari in the Serengeti and Ngorogoro Crater. It was a once in a lifetime experience that this company continually tried to sabotage. I booked three months in advance to go to Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorogoro. When I arrived in Arusha, the manager Richard changed my itinerary so I never made it to Tarangire. Then, he tried to cut my Safari short by one day so we could drive a separate party to the airport. When confronted after the trip with these complaints, Richard was rude to myself and my family. He never even addressed our concerns as we attempted to talk to him in a calm manner. I later found out he suspended the driver for our trip, who was by far the highlight of the trip and pleasure to be around.
If you are looking to book a safari, just avoid this company. There are plenty of great companies out there operating similar safaris that there is no need to deal with Richard and the hassle of World Tours and Safaris.
A once in a life time experience.
We were maybe just extremely lucky but in mammals we saw the Golden Rump ElephantShrew (4x), an Adlers Duiker another Suni(?) Shrews and a civet.
The bird experience was amazing: We saw the Amani sunbird; Sokoke Pipit; Sokoke Scops Owl; Forest weaver; Woodpeckers; Spotted Ground Thrush Bee-eater; as well as a number of horn bills and black kites.
Our experience in the forest started at 6 in the morning and we left the forest the afternoon. The guide assisted me a lot to follow the Pipit until I got a photo of it. The photo of the Amani Sunbird also clear to identify the bird but the distance was quite far.
I would recommend anybody to go very early and be very patient and prepared to walk long distances in hot and humid conditions.

Our life time dream come true through ndutu adventures.
We traveled from North Carolina (USA) to Tanzania on November 2014 and Ndutu Adventures organise our 7 days safaris to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara national parks! We had an amazing time and the organisation was perfect. We had an incredible experience! I highly recommend Ndutu Adventures!
Everything we dreamed of - the experience of a lifetime!
Bush Drifters was great, and we especially loved that it's a Tanzanian-owned company. In the planning stages they were responsive, adapting the itinerary to our interests, and their communications were clear. When in Tanzania, they picked us up exactly as planned and proceeded to meet and exceed our expectations.
The guides were amazing, and managed to find all the animals we hoped to see and then some. In addition to knowing and telling us virtually everything about the animals, birds and plants, they knew a lot about the cultural and political history of the region. We're so glad we picked Bush Drifters!

Perfect and great experience.
Our Safari was a two days ones, and the travel from Dar Es Salaam to the park and back, was amazing.
The expirience at the Park was very good. And the communication with our guide was perfect.

Best value safari ever
From the first encounter I have had with Ibrahim I liked him a lot. We e-mailed a lot for 4-5 months before the trip to make sure everything would be exactly what we wanted. He is kind, generous and flexible. He was waiting for us in Kilimanjaro airport (event though our flight was 3 hours late) and we stayed in a nice private house in Moshi with delicious local food served. I travelled with my 3 kids and had booked a 3-day safari with overnight stay in tent. I was a bit worried that we would be squeezed into a minibus for the safari (because the price was much lower than the other companies) but we were comfortably suited in a huge Landcruiser only the four of us! Our driver Hutch was excellent and extremely kind. The safaris was to Tarangire, Ngongoro Crater and Lake Manyara and we saw all of the big 5 several times. We stayed in tents in a lodge with excellent food and very nice people.
I can highly recommend Mr Ibrahim and Afrishare Trekking for your next safari experience!! Next time will be Serengetti and Kilimanjaro Climb!!
