He was very knowledgeable, and his ability to find the animals and encounters was amazing!
Altezza has done a wonderful job creating an easy way to book incredible experiences with peace at mind that everything is scheduled and coordinated perfectly. I cannot recommend them enough in making a complicated trip easy and accessible and fun!

worthy
We chose Axis based on several criteria: affordability, reviews, the option to pay at their office upon arrival in Nairobi, and the itinerary. And we made the right choice. On the day the tour began, we were picked up from our hotel. We paid for the services in cash at the office and set off immediately for Maasai Mara. The journey is, of course, long—but we were prepared for that. Since this was the most budget-friendly tour I could find online, the lodge was modest, and the meals were quite limited. I’m not mentioning this as a complaint against the operator, but rather so that people know what to expect for the price. Electricity and internet were only available at certain times, and there was no hot water at all. The next stops were Naivasha and Nakuru—in my opinion, there’s really nothing to see there after visiting Maasai Mara! All you can see of the hippos are their noses and ears. There are plenty of flamingos, but it’s not possible to get very close to them. That same day, we set off for Amboseli, arriving just before 9:00 PM. It’s a good thing the itinerary was planned this way—the very next morning, we headed into the reserve and had a wonderful time! I wouldn’t say the elephants roam in large herds, but we did see a great many birds—even flamingos! Overall, I enjoyed the trip. Admittedly, this type of format—spending six days traveling around in a vehicle—might not be for everyone. So, before you head off on a safari, make sure to gauge your own endurance!I’d like to give a special mention to our guide. We were so lucky to have him! He was young, energetic, and had a great sense of humor. He shared a wealth of information and made sure everyone understood everything. It’s thanks to him that, on our very first day in Masai Mara, we saw lions, buffalo, a leopard, and elephants. Then, first thing the next morning, we spotted the last of the "Big Five"—a rhinoceros. And for the grand finale—a cheetah with her cubs, caught in the middle of lunch! Thank you so much, Kikitu, for all your hard work!

Awesome Safari
We went on a 6-day safari with Revelation african safaris. Melvin the tour operator, was incredibly responsive to our inquiries and always responded in a very timely manner. The company's prices were also extremely reasonable when compared to other safari companies, and they offered incredibly flexibility in terms of itinerary in order to create a safari experience that matched our interests.
In terms of our actual safari experience, we travelled to Lake Manyara, Tarangire National Park, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. We also got to see the Maasai tribe along the way and our tour guide also took us to Mto wa Mbu. Our experience was absolutely phenomenal, and the service was professional and well exceeded expectations. We opted for the budget camping option, but our tent was fully equipped with beds, a desk, and a lamp, truly a luxury camping experience to the point where I hardly even felt I was camping. The company also always had cold mineral water available, and the food was outstanding both in terms of quality and quantity.
We got to see all of the big 5 during our time, and saw plenty of animals and got lots of memorable pictures. Our tour guide, Bernard was very knowledgeable and spoke great English. We would highly recommend booking with Revelation african safaris if you are looking for a memorable experience.

Tmen was very spot on to show us the best the park has to offer.
Communication was lean and easy. It was worth it the day visit we saw a bunch of different species and also had a great lunch break.

Excellent!
This safari was an amazing experience!
The communication with Norah was really smooth and good, she listened at our needs and tailor the perfect safari for us. She also surprised us with an accommodation upgrade and it was above expectations.
Our guide was Edward Massaki, he is really kind and very experienced guide. He had an answer for every questions we had and he was always spotting animals for us to give the best experience. On top of that, he is a safe driver and he takes great care of your needs/adapts the plans depending on you. His experience and kindness makes him the best safari guide!
I can only recommend Gosheni :)

Trekking to gorillas turned out to be memorable for my whole life.
Thank you. It was an amazing experience. Reliable , decent guys . They helped me make my way through the jungle. Gorillas are fascinating animals, you definitely need to see them at least once in your life.

Thorough and patient
We visited 2 national parks in Tanzania. Stayed at Ruaha River Lodge in the Ruaha National Park and Rufiji River Camp on the Rufiji River in the Nyerere National Park. Both camps were excellent in every respect. The food at Rufiji River Camp was worth a special mention. Our time in Zanzibar was interesting, but the litter on the beaches and the unethical boat trips to swim with the dolphins and go snorkelling were not what tourists like us would like to see or experience again.
