Unprofessional Guide with a Bad Temper - Good Luck
One incident happened on the third-to-last day of our safari. We noticed there were only 10 bottles of water left for the remaining two days, so I politely asked him if he could buy more. He immediately turned around and asked in a harsh tone, “How many bottles are left?” After I counted and told him there were 10, he simply replied, “I think it is enough.” We then had to explain why we needed more water before he reluctantly agreed to buy more the next day.
Another incident happened while we were waiting for the wildebeest crossing. We waited at one location for about an hour and then left for a restroom break. About an hour later, we heard over the radio that the crossing had started at the previous location. Instead of calmly explaining the situation, Good Luck became visibly upset and started blaming us. He repeatedly said, “I told you to be patient,” “I’m a professional,” and “You need to listen to me.” We were very uncomfortable being spoken to this way. Even though we later saw another crossing, the experience had already ruined our mood.
I would only recommend Good Luck to travelers with "good patience" who don’t expect their reasonable requests to be welcomed.

Boss Wang is truly reliable，he always finds solutions when problems arise.
Folks, Boss Wang is incredibly reliable and capable of handling tough situations. One of our travel companions had their bag stolen while entering Kenya from Tanzania, and Boss Wang tracked down the thief even before the police did. If you want a stress‑free trip, you can book with him without hesitation.
For our honeymoon, he generously surprised us with a cake — and this review isn’t just because of the cake! There were little pleasant surprises every single day, making our journey absolutely wonderful.
Also, I highly recommend our guide George. He has amazing people skills and helped us spot the Big Five effortlessly. Five‑star recommendation!

Amazing knowledgeable and tailed to what I wanted
Our Kenyan safari over the past eight days has been incredible. Our driver and guide, Sebastian, was extremely knowledgeable and always knew exactly where to go to give us the best wildlife viewing opportunities.
What really stood out was how he tailored the safari to exactly what my husband and I were hoping to experience. He took the time to understand what we wanted and made sure our trip exceeded our expectations. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, this was truly an unforgettable adventure. We highly recommend Sebastian and this safari experience!

A wonderful Tanzania safari with great guide Solomon
We had an unforgettable safari trip in Tanzania arranged by Zohar African Safaris. The route design was well‑planned. Our guide Solomon had excellent driving skills. We spotted the Big Five, witnessed the great wildebeest river crossing in Serengeti, and saw many amazing wild‑animal moments. The communication was smooth, everything was reliable and well‑organized. Highly recommend this operator for your African safari.
Zohar African Safaris为我们安排了一场难忘的坦桑尼亚Safari。路线规划非常出色，我们的导游Solomon驾驶技术一流。我们见到了非洲五大兽，亲历塞伦盖蒂角马大迁徙渡河，见证许多精彩野生动物瞬间。全程沟通顺畅，安排可靠有序，强烈推荐这家旅行社。

Pure Magic!
Our safari with Taswira Africa Safaris was truly unforgettable from start to finish. Every detail felt thoughtful, personal, and beautifully organized, allowing us to relax fully and take in the wonder of Tanzania. George and Rajabo were exceptional guides—knowledgeable, patient, kind, and deeply committed to helping us experience each park in a meaningful way. Their ability to spot wildlife, explain animal behavior, and share the culture and landscape around us turned every drive into something special.
The four parks we visited each had their own magic. Arusha offered a gentle and beautiful introduction to Tanzania’s landscapes, Tarangire amazed us with its elephants, baobab trees, and wide-open beauty, the Serengeti felt endless and cinematic in the best possible way, and Ngorongoro was simply breathtaking—a place that feels almost impossible to describe until you are standing there yourself.
Our visit to the Umoja Centre added another meaningful layer to the trip. It was inspiring to learn about the work being done to support young people in Arusha through education, life skills, well-being, and opportunity. Meeting the team and seeing the spirit of the center reminded us that this journey was not only about incredible wildlife and landscapes, but also about connection, community, and the positive impact travel can have.
We also loved the accommodations throughout the journey. The Maasai lodge was a memorable cultural experience and a beautiful way to begin connecting with the people and traditions of the region. Each camp had its own charm, and the food everywhere was excellent—fresh, generous, and far beyond what we expected on safari. Ngorongoro Farm House was another highlight, with its peaceful setting, welcoming atmosphere, and wonderful meals that made it feel like a true retreat.
What made the trip stand out most was the feeling that we were in caring, capable hands every step of the way. George and Rajabo brought warmth, professionalism, humor, and heart to the experience, and Taswira Africa Safaris delivered a safari we will never forget. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone dreaming of a thoughtful, well-run, and magical Tanzanian safari.

Highly recommend Africa celebrity
Thank you Peter for giving us the trip of a lifetime!
In just three days, your professionalism, exceptional driving skills, and deep knowledge of African wildlife blew us away. Thanks to your expert tracking, we fulfilled our dream of seeing the Big Five and witnessing the legendary wildebeest river crossing. Your enthusiasm and humor made every game drive both thrilling and insightful.
What impressed us most was your cool-headed professionalism and dedication to our safety. When a local road protest threatened to disrupt our travel on the final day, you quickly assessed the situation, prioritized our security, and skillfully navigated us to Nairobi on time for our appointment at the United Nations Headquarters. To top it off, you stayed with us at our airport hotel until every single member of our group was safely checked in. That level of care went far beyond our expectations.
Coming from Canada, our group felt the true warmth, honesty, and hospitality of Kenya through you. You were more than a driver—you were a brilliant guide, a true cultural ambassador, and a wonderful friend.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making these three days unforgettable. Wishing you and your family good health, happiness, and continued success!
Asante sana, Peter!

Exceptional safari experience for our multi-generational family (including 1 person with disability)
Taswira is an exceptional company and operator. I cannot recommend them highly enough. We just returned from a tour with our multi-generational family of 7 - ranging in age from 19-85 including my disabled mom. It was the experience of a lifetime!
The entire team at Taswira is kind, professional, energetic, safe and exceptionally caring and knowledgeable. We had two primary guides for our trip - George and Rajabu. Their collegial and complementary styles were perfect for our family - and each of us enjoyed getting to know and spend time with both of them. They put so much care into meeting each individual's needs and wishes - including going above and beyond for my disabled mom, treating her like family and affectionately calling her Bibi (which is Swahili for grandmother).
The properties they selected were also exceptional - with top notch accommodations and service with outstanding hospitality. The food was excellent and our family's various dietary preferences and needs were easily met.
As an eco-conscious traveler, I am also deeply appreciative that Taswira is committed to environmental stewardship and support for its local communities. While there are many safari operators, Caroline's attention to planning paired with George and Rajabu's passion, caring and enthusiasm ensured that each of us had the trip of a lifetime. Furthermore, as a locally owned company, the dollars we spent directly support the local community and the wonderful people who live there.
If I could give them 10 stars I would! Thanks Taswira!

Amazing 8-day safari with Namnyak – Highly recommended!
We had an amazing 8-day safari with Namnyak Safaris, visiting Amboseli, Lake Naivasha and the Maasai Mara.
From the very beginning, the communication was excellent. We contacted them only about two weeks before our trip, but they replied to every email incredibly fast and arranged everything smoothly within a very short time. Once we arrived, everything went exactly as planned, including the accommodations, meals and park entries, so we could simply relax and enjoy the safari.
A special thanks to our guide, Simba. He was professional, knowledgeable and an excellent driver. Most importantly, he had an incredible eye for wildlife. We were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five, the Great Migration river crossing, cheetahs, leopards, and many other amazing animals. With Simba, Hakuna Matata!
Throughout the trip, the team was always happy to help with even the smallest requests, whether it was stopping at a supermarket or helping us exchange coins as souvenirs. There was always drinking water available in the vehicle, and we truly appreciated all the thoughtful details.
This was one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Namnyak Safaris to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.
Thank you again to the entire Namnyak team!
