Well organized, experienced and professional tour provider
We have planned a 5 day expedition starting from Nairobi and ending at Mombasa. Our tour was well planned and organized throughout the stay. The communication with the team prior to the start of the tour was reliable and the driver, Stephan, was well spoken, professional, always on time, and provided a lot of insights during the expedition. Overall, we had a great time and much satisfied with their service. Look out of them and their great service.

Excellent!! Highly recommend
Our recent experience with Safari Soles on a combined 3-day safari and 8-day trek on Mt Kilimanjaro exceeded all expectations. The journey began with a delightful stay at the Arusha Farm House, where the hospitality was unmatched. Geoffrey Samwel, the receptionist, went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, while Happy and Witness in the dining services accommodated my nut allergy, providing delicious and safe meal options throughout our stay.
Our transfer drivers, including Baltaza, Rafael, and William, were great. They provided an stress-free transition between the airport, hotel, and various adventure points. The safari, led by our knowledgeable driver Izak, was a highlight. His expertise in navigating the best spots for wildlife viewing and his insightful answers to our questions enriched our experience. The lodge accommodation, integrated with the local Masai tribe, offered a unique cultural immersion, highlighting the authenticity of our safari adventure. We saw thousands of animals in migration and the big five, up close with lions walking up to our jeep.
Undoubtedly, the best part of our trip was the trek to Mt. Kilimanjaro. Our chief guide (Antipas) and assistant guide (Emanuel) were seasoned mountaineers, who provided a top notch experience. Their professionalism, combined with a strong understanding of the mountain and its cultural significance, provided a safe and enriching experience. The porter team, led by a skilled chef who catered to my dietary restrictions with exceptional care, contributed significantly to our ability to summit. They ensured our food and utilities were hygienic and our belongings were safe and undamaged. Their professionalism, friendliness, and attention to detail were commendable.
The sense of community fostered by the guides and porters with fellow climbers created a vibrant, social atmosphere at the camps, making our experience even more enjoyable.
As experienced climbers, my father and I appreciated the team's ability to tailor the pace to our skill level, allowing for an optimal climbing experience. For safety precautions, Antipas and Emanuel would temper our pace when needed but also push us when facing challenging aspects of the trek. It is no wonder they have such a high success rate in summiting! The views on the summit were breathtaking and our team took every opportunity to take pictures of us and explain the ecosystems and nuances of the mountain.
In conclusion, Safari Soles delivered an exceptional adventure, with professional service, cultural immersion, and attention to health and safety. I would highly recommend their services to anyone seeking an unforgettable African safari and climbing experience regardless of experience level.

4 days Masai Mara
Ordinarily, Iām not the person to do reviews coz I like to keep my travels private, however, I was impressed by this tour agency. Though slightly young in business, they made my whole stay in Kenya a worth while experience. I was particularly impressed by how agile and innovative the tour guide was. I love the African Savannah and the expansive Masai Mara came in handy. I saw all the animals in proximity, our driver was really a genius, I have been on a safari before and I know its not easy coming in close contact with many animals, I must credit the team that was taking us around and I recommend everyone looking for adventure in Africa to consider doing it with ThinkScene Safaris

Seamless and Amazing Experience š¤©
I was a solo traveller treating myself for a special birthday and the whole experience could not of been better. My guide/drive Lawrence was simply the best - relaxed, friendly, thoughtful and very kind!
Everything went according to plan - my various lodges were exceptional, food amazing (I am vegetarian) and the game drives were some of the best I have been on (and I have been on a lot!) I concentrated on Southern and Central Malawi and South Luanga NP, Zambia - everything I did was amazing! I have am very well traveled but this trip was one of my favourites!

He was excellent and very accommodating.
I recently went on a 2-day Masai Mara trip arranged by Gemfinders, and it exceeded my expectations! Our driver/guide Haojish from Gemfinders was exceptional, going above and beyond to ensure we saw as many animals as possible in the national reserve. He was incredibly helpful, kind, and accommodating throughout the journey. I had a fantastic overall experience and would highly recommend it. The only minor downside was the limited electricity supply at the camp, which wasn't mentioned in the itinerary. A heads-up about this would have been appreciated.

A great country with fantastic wildlife and friendly and helpful people
We very much enjoyed our trip to Kenya, particularly the safari part where we saw many animals including lions, rhinos, elephants, cheetahs and two leopards. The hotel staff were helpful and friendly to the kids. The safari was well-organised and everything went to plan. Overall we had a great time.
