The best provider for exploring the most beautiful place in the world
Our Masai Mara trip was perfect from the start! Communication and booking were quick, easy and very reliable. Compared to other providers, it was by far the best offer! The trip itself was simply perfect in every way, and we were well looked after during the car journeys. At the lodge where we stayed, all the staff were more than attentive, courteous and friendly. It had been recently renovated and everything was clean and in working order. Our driver gave us lots of interesting information about Kenya and the Masai Mara.
This was the second time I had travelled to the Masai Mara with Simba Paka and I will definitely book with them again.

Responsive, attentive, accommodating
These four days will forever be etched in our memories.
We experienced an absolutely extraordinary adventure in the heart of Tanzania, discovering magnificent landscapes and breathtaking wildlife.
From Tarangire National Park, with its majestic scenery and encounters with elephants, to the mythical vastness of Serengeti National Park, every moment was wonderful.
We had the privilege of observing magnificent herds of wildebeest, zebras, buffalo, eland, antelopes, and so many other animals, not forgetting the little ones, like the dik-diks, affectionately nicknamed "McDonald's" by the guides.
Majestic animals like lions, lionesses, cheetahs, leopards, rhinoceroses, ostriches, and more.
The Ngorongoro highlands offered us breathtaking panoramas, before the intense emotion felt in the Ngorongoro Crater, a true natural sanctuary where wildlife expresses itself in all its splendor.
We were incredibly lucky to see almost all the animals in their natural habitat. An immense privilege, which we fully appreciate, as each encounter was magical and precious.
We sincerely hope that everyone will one day have this same opportunity and experience this unique emotion.
If these four days were so magical, it is also—and above all—thanks to our guide, Sifaël.
Through his passion, his kindness, his impressive knowledge, and his deep love for this land, he transformed this trip into a truly human and authentic experience, far beyond a simple safari.

Organization was impeccable. From the initial booking, communication was prompt and clear, all my q
My visit to Lalibela was an absolute highlight of my trip to Ethiopia. The famous rock-hewn churches completely exceeded all expectations.
A huge part of what made this experience so special was our guide. His knowledge was incredible; he didn't just recite facts but told captivating stories about the history, symbolism, and legends of each church. He was exceptionally attentive and caring throughout the entire tour—ensuring everyone was safe on the uneven paths, checking if we needed breaks, and answering all our questions with patience and enthusiasm.

Amazing experience
I had an amazing experience with Loise Adventures during my visit to Kenya before relocating to the USA. From the very beginning, everything was well organized and professionally handled.
The safari planning process was smooth and stress-free thanks to Lynn from Loise Adventures, who was very helpful, patient, and attentive to every detail. She made sure the itinerary matched exactly what I wanted and ensured everything was perfectly arranged.
Our tour guide, John, was absolutely exceptional. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and very passionate about his work. He made the safari enjoyable, educational, and unforgettable. His understanding of wildlife, local culture, and the best spots made the entire experience truly special.
From the beautiful landscapes to the well-planned safari activities, everything exceeded my expectations. I felt safe, comfortable, and well taken care of throughout the trip.
I highly recommend Loise Adventures to anyone planning a safari or tour in Kenya. If you want a memorable, well-organized, and authentic experience, this is the team to trust. I would definitely choose them again.

An amazing safari with lifetime memories
A group of us, three families, were going to safari in Tanzania and Zanjibar. Our trip was 5 days of safari and two days in all inclusive resort in zanzibar. Our "custom package" included everything (transportation, guide, food, hotels, and whatever else it may be). We had customized every aspect of our trip. Going from the US, we didn't know where to start. I sent emails to a few, about 10, highly rated companies on Tripadvisor and other websites. Only three companies responded. I sent follow up emails as I had more questions. Only Hadija at Avocet came back with desirable and detailed answers. I went back and forth multiple times to iron out minute details on hotels, type of safari jeeps, camps class and location, food inclusion and choices, guide info, and routes to name a few. Hadija always responded with promptly with detailed explanation. I really admired timely communication and descriptive communication.
Part of our deal, we were allocated three safari jeeps for three families. Our three drivers/guides, Michael, Waldon, and Ibrahim Bakari, were simply amazing. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. They were quite friendly and conversational. None of them smoked which was an added benefit. All three families felt quite comfortable and at ease with our guides. We waited till last day of our trip to tip them. We were so happy, we tipped twice the recommended amount.
We did have a hiccup with Avocet. One of our flights were canceled due to airline change of schedule and "no refund" was given. Avocet wanted to charge us for the new flights. After back and forth, they agree to "cover" cost of new flights.
Overall it was an amazing trip. We were apprehensive before going to Tanzania. But, Hadija's hand holding made our journey very comfortable and easy. We would definitely utilize Avocet if we go back to Tanzania.

Review about Mikumi National Park by Luca Dentis
To enjoy an excellent experience at Mikumi National Park, a 3-day (2 night) package is sufficient. You'll be immersed in wild nature, in contact with an extraordinary multitude of animals, and in a constantly changing landscape. An exciting surprise, beyond your wildest expectations.

My favourite country! And I’ve seen many countries
Everything was very well organised through safaribookings.
And we had a very friendly driver, Gavin. Aquila was a very nice game reserve. They take good care of the animals.
The resort was beautiful. We had a great stay and two very nice private safari’s.

Simply... amazing!
In December, our family decided to break the European winter with a stay in Tanzania. The first part was a journey (by train and car) into the interior of the country, to Mikumi National Park. We chose a 3-day package that allowed us to enjoy a fantastic experience, immersed in wild nature, in contact with an extraordinary multitude of animals. Next, we moved to Mafia Island for a wonderful week in a meticulously maintained resort, combining relax and marine activities (snorkeling the coral reef, whale shark watching, picnicking on a sandbank...). The weather was favorable, although we were told the sea is more crystal clear at other times of the year (July-September). Overall, the vacation was excellent. We found the infrastructure to be of good quality, the transportation efficient and punctual, and the staff very courteous and attentive. The value for money was also excellent.
