Always available to answer any questions. Very detail-oriented
Trip of a lifetime!
Lillian organized our 15-day luxury safari and beach trip to Tanzania. She took care of everything. She is always available for any questions. As I was traveling alone with my 2 children (11 and 12), I had some apprehensions. Lillian always reassured me and we had the best trip ever. We felt safe everywhere.
We also had the best driver/guide on the safari part of the trip. I love taking “professional” pictures and our driver himself took pictures as well and therefore understood the locations, lights etc.
All of our accommodations were truly amazing.
I highly recommended Wild Pride Safaries

Canceled safari by operator
We booked our safari two months in advance. 4 days before the date we got a request from the tour operator to re-schedule the date due to organization issues. We managed, re-arranged our schedule. After that it was extremely difficult to communicate to the operator, we received no info, no replies to emails. Complete incommunicado. We only hope that we will receive back the deposit we paid - the safari never happened.
We could still give five star even after a canceled safari as we can understand if there are unforseen technical difficulties during organizing a tour - but at least, talk to your client! Not communicating, not answering emails for days just a few days before a scheduled and then re-scheduled safari, leaving the client in uncertainty deserves nothing but one star.

One thing I can say for sure is that the Safari Tour with Suricata was the best.
One thing I can say for sure is that the Safari Tour with Suricata was the best. Mr. Twalbu gave me enough explanations about the tour before starting the safari tour and listened to our story. He was very kind and he felt good even before the tour started. We booked late and went on a safari tour with another company that is working with Surikata, but it didn't feel bad because there was enough explanation about it. I had a problem with my car during the safari, but the guide responded quickly, so I was able to switch to another car in a short time. Our guides and chefs fulfilled their roles and I was very happy with it. The airport pick-up service and the condition of the accommodation I stayed before the safari tour were also good! Thank you for making good memories, Suricata:)

Fantastic trip
Our trip to Tanzania was fantastic. Every aspect of the trip was on-time and went according to plan. Fransisca was constantly in touch to ensure the trip was meeting our expectations and our guide Ephanda was amazing. We saw 4 of the big 5 (no panthers), had excellent accomodations and good food. It was an exceptionally good value for the money. I wouldn't hestitate to use their services again.
Very knowledgeable
Tour guiding was educative. I got to learn so much about Maara ecosystems

Very knowledgeable and just a great person
Naseeb Safaris Uganda is a great company. They know of the best locations to go to and always treat their clients with respect and kindness. Everything was well handled and planned out to perfection.
I am definitely going back to Uganda again and will be using the same company. They are very reasonable on pricing and I was satisfied with everything.

Njinu stewarded our safari adventure with style and grace
My family recently embarked on a five-day safari tour across several of Kenya's stunning national parks in the Rift Valley. It was an experience that exceeded all our expectations, thanks largely to our phenomenal tour guide, Njinu Bernard.
Our experiece was made richer and more enjoyable by Njinu's encyclopedic knowledge of Kenya's wildlife and culture. With decades of experience, he provided insightful commentary that brought the safari to life, explaining the social behaviors of herds of gazelles, the hunting prowess of hyenas, and seasonal movements of birds. Njinu was not only focused on the big five, but drew our attention to notable bird and even plant life.
Njinu's exceptional driving skills made us feel secure while rumbling through the rugged terrains of Nakuru Lake National Park and Hell's Gate National Park. When we stopped for lunch in a park he was on constant alert for signs of danger and kept a close watch on each member of the party. Njinu also showcased leadership in situations where we were approached by vendors selling various items. He took command of these situations, ensuring that our interactions remained pleasant and unobtrusive.
His character was demonstrated when Njinu walked through a cultural tour taking it upon himself to pick up trash left by others along the path.
Beyond his professional capabilities, Njinu's warm and engaging personality made our trip truly special. The evenings spent enjoying meals and conversations with him were a delight. His stories and insights not only entertained us but also deepened our understanding and appreciation of Kenya.
For all of these reasons, I am pleased to recommend this tour and Njinu in particular.
