Ezekiel was a knowledgeable, accommodating, and personable tour guide
We had such a blast on the Suricata Tours. The guide Ezekiel was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and personable. The chef who came with us, Tito, was an amazing cook. We had a variety of fresh food and ate happily three times a day. The parks were great too- we went to Ngorongoro, Tangire, and Serengeti every day from 6 or 7 am to around 5:30 every day. Ezekiel was able to spot basically every animal on our list including cheetahs and rhinos. We were in a car with three other people for a total of 6 people. We preferred this and had a great time with the other guests. The car was comfortable and ample water was provided daily. We camped every night (though nicer facilities were possible). The tents were very sturdy and nice and mosquito proof. Great communication over WhatsApp, good value for money and felt safe the whole time. Highly recommend this tour company!

Eziekel was knowledgeable and fun and made the trip even better!
We had the best time on our safari with Suricata. We did 4 days through Tangiere, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti. We also did a stop at the Masai community. Our guide, Ezekiel, was wonderful. He spotted so many animals (including 8 rhinos!), knew a ton of information and hung out with us on our downtime. We learned so much about wildlife and Tanzanian culture from him. We did the camping option and Ezekiel played cards with us at night and taught us Tanzanian songs. Our chef, Tito, was so professional and an incredible cook. I really didn’t expect the meals to be that good. From the breakfasts of pancakes and eggs to the elaborate multi dish lunches and dinners, I was super well fed. We had three vegetarians in our group and all of us had enough options. We went in March which was a blast. It’s the rainy season, but the rain never got in the way of seeing animals and we had the campsites to ourself. Everything was smooth and well organized. Hilary, the company owner, was always prompt in his communication. Truly one of the greatest experiences of my life!! You will not regret booking.
A must do experience in Tanzania with awesome, welcoming guides
We highly recommend the 4-day safari camping option. We had an extremely welcoming group, guide, and chef that made the entire experience worthwhile. The safari car was also super clean and well maintained. Ezekiel was an awesome guide, who was very knowledgeable, kind, and easy going. Tito was our chef, who made the most amazing meals. On one of the nights, we had downpour rain, and somehow both Ezekiel and Tito helped to create an awesome evening full of a 4-course dinner and games that made it fun and full of laughter. I couldn’t of asked for a better welcome to Tanzania to see its beautiful nature and welcoming community. Suricata Safari is a must do and unforgettable, especially with guides as great as Ezekiel and Tito.

Fantastic 1-day safari from Zanzibar
We were a family of 5 and had Kelvin as our private guide for the day in Mikumi. Everything was perfectly organized, Kelvin was friendly and professional, very knowledgable about the good places to watch all the animals, we were even 'lucky' to see a leopard for several minutes. We highly recommend TanzAmerica Safaris.

Professional, excellent service
My mom and I had an amazing experience with Expedition Kenya Safari. Patrick and Willie were truly amazing. Patrick was courteous, his ability as a spotter and knowledge of animals was remarkable; on entering the Masai Mara he spotted a male lion! Willie was friendly and welcoming, his driving skills in pounding rain and knowledge of the Masai Mara terrain was amazing. We had so much fun. We highly recommend Patrick and Willie for their professionalism, planning/organizing, timeliness and excellent service. Looking forward to our next safari!

Hyrax Safaris was great a phenomenal experience!
I had a unique, mind-blowing experience with Hyrax Safaris!! We decided to do a 3-day private Safari in a jeep and it was well worth the money. You pay for what you get, and I feel that I received the experience of a lifetime. The company's owner was friendly and extremely helpful from begging to end. Months, before booking, I inquired about the safari packages and options. The owner and assistant answered all of my questions thoroughly and in a timely manner. Furthermore, she was able to share additional information about the city of Nairobi regarding great hotel options for tourists. I would also like to give a huge shoutout to our safari game driver Aaron Kasaine Senei. He was phenomenal during the game drive. Aaron was nice, welcoming, and extremely knowledgeable about all the animals. I really appreciate that he was patient and allowed us to get as close as possible to the animals while giving us time to take plenty of pictures. Honestly, I was drawn to this company due to their ratings and I can vouch for the excellent service and communication, hence why I decided to leave a review myself. Please book with Hyrax Safaris, you won't be disappointed; 10 out of 10, would recommend it!

Boundless Africa Journeys is THE tour operator to use!
I can't recommend Boundless Africa Journeys highly enough! Our experience in Kenya with them was amazing! From the very start of the trip to the end, we were taken care of and shown all the beauty of Kenya, its people and its animals. Our guide picked us up at the airport and was with us the entire time we were in Kenya. He was knowledgeable, a very good driver and open to what we wanted to see and do. We liked getting up crack of dawn for best game viewing and he always said "Yes"! Annette, who owns and operates Boundless Africa Journeys was a pleasure to deal with. She created the perfect itinerary for us and checked in frequently to ensure all was going well. I would book another safari with Boundless in a minute! We saw MORE animals on this trip than back in 1998 on another safari. We stayed in a mix of wonderful lodges and tent camps. All were wonderful - incredible views, food was fantastic and service was perfect. It was a big birthday for me and Annette arranged at EVERY camp for a birthday celebration. What a magical experience overall.

Just perfect
We booked the 4-day safari. Our safari went through Tsavo West, Tsavo East and Amboseli National Park. My wife, our 11 year old son and I were all very, very satisfied.
Machut was our guide and driver. We benefited from his many years of experience right from the start. Already at the first stop he spotted a crocodile and a hippo with his trained eye. And the following days were just as exciting. We saw and admired all the big fives at the end of our safari. The lodges were also really great and exceeded our expectations. The locations of the lodges were all unique and the special thing was the watering holes for the animals. So we sat at dinner and we could watch elephants, zebras, buffalos and many other animals from a safe distance. A better entertainment is not possible on a safari.
But also the catering, the cleanliness and the service were completely to our satisfaction. Despite the long distances on partly improvised roads, Machut always drove us safely from A to B. We had unforgettable safari experiences. With this safari we had unforgettable days in Kenya.

Perfection
This was one of my best trips ever. From the contact n answering my question to the safari, tent, food, drink, locations….. everything was perfection. I’m definitely coming back to see the Mara river crossing and I’ll book it again with Serengeti African Tours. Thank you for an amazing time!
