First time in tanzania and definitely not the last time
We just came back from our trip to Mount Kilimanjaro via Rongai route. It was an unbelievable experience.
Everything was well organized.
Throughout the trekking, the food that was provided exceeded our expectations (high variety of meals, also snacks for the hiking were daily provided). Every morning we were woken up with a cup of coffee in our tent. The whole team made us feel very comfortable and looked after our well-being.
After we reached Gilman’s point I started feeling my limits. Yitzhack didn't hesitate to give me his jacket even though it was terribly cold and windy. What a selflessness gesture!
Reaching Uhuru peak sets you free indeed. All of it would not be possible without Kilele-team, thanks to Yitzhack, Michael, the excellent cook and the rest of the team!
Thank you very much guys!

Knowledgeable, friendly and eyes like a hawk!
This year we finally made it on our Safari after having to reschedule due to Covid. Migration Venture Africa could not have been more accommodating, 3 years later we picked up just as we left off. Everything was organised via email and Amos at MVA was always very responsive. For the Safari we chose a 6 day trip including Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It was absolutely fantastic - far surpassing our expectations! The Serengeti was our favourite park and a real highlight, each day was a surprise and every day was amazing, we were really lucky to see leopards, cheetahs, countless lions, elephants, giraffes… the list goes on. We were also lucky enough to meet 2 of MVA’s guides - Bakari and Christian. Both were extremely knowledgable of the parks, the wildlife and the culture, really friendly people and so good as spotting the animals - they would see things which we could barely see with binoculars! We felt they both went above and beyond to make sure we had a great Safari. Our trip was unforgettable and I would definitely recommend MVA to anyone. Thanks for an amazing trip!

Excellent service all round!
Seamless from start to finish. Email communications with Hilary were prompt and thorough. We were well looked after from pick up to drop off! Saw the big 5 and then some...then aplenty actually! Mr T, our guide Lewis, our chef Benjamin, all our tented/lodge accomodations. It was all perfect! Asante sana team Suricata for a great time all round. Highly recommend!

Lifetime experience, and would do it all over again
This was our third time in Kenya and our second trip to Mara NP, yet the safari experience exceeded our expectations.
Silas always promptly replied to the messages and kindly went back and forth with my requests. We finally settled for a 1 day Nakuru, 3 day Masai Mara private tour, upgraded our jeep and were assigned to Nelson, our king driver. I really appreciated that Silas checked in on us during our safari trip.
Nelson helped us with any luggages at all times. He is not a very talkative guide but very knowledgeable and you could still see all the effort he put into the 4 days we spent with him. My husband is also into photography so angles and light are very important. Nelson kindly and patiently waited and drove around as necessary and as best he could.
We saw all the big five, some of them, numerous times because Nelson really made sure to be in the right spots at the right time.
Asante sana. We will definitely recommend you to our family and friends.

Mr. Kiwanuka Moses in particular was such an amazing, caring, mindful and friend.
The tour we had to Murchison falls was made the most convenient, secure and nature exploring, one of its kind.
Thanks to the Mirama Hills Safari management because you made me really love the travel tour.

Very professional & funny
I booked a 2 days Safari with Kihindo. I was impressed by how professional it was, and this since the booking from France till my way back to the airport. Everything promised was executed. I was with my wife and my 2 small kids. We loved the guide (Jeffrey) and the driver (William), they were so kind and always worried about our satisfaction and pleasure. We felt the passion from them, they were making sure that we find and meet animals, and, always with impressive explanations. I do recommend Kihindro at 200%.

Exceeded high expectations
The safari exceeded our expectation: from the 80 lions we saw (and most of them up close), to the cheetah hunt and 10 cheetahs and 3 leopards we saw up close, to the lodges we lived in (quite frankly the nicest places we have ever stayed in) and the service we received from Lion King. Flying to Arusha, KLM lost our luggage, but we didn’t have to do more than tell Lion King. Rose in the office called for us every day, making sure we didn’t lose our on important safari time and Gama, our guide, was on the phone with KLM at 4 in the morning to make sure the luggage was delivered to us in the morning before we went on our safari in Serengeti. We were impressed, to say the least. The safari was an incredible experience, and our guide Gama made sure we saw all the animals we had dreamed of seeing. He did so with a cheeky comment always on the ready, personalized wine, and always Coca Cola Zero and beer available in the car - an amazing guide. We always felt safe and taken care of.
All in all, we went in with high expectations. They were exceeded in every aspect; safari, lodging and guide. Would highly recommend to everyone. A special thanks to our guide, Gama, for making sure we saw all the we wanted to see, including the Big Five!

Very easy and simple to work with...
RONIE is such a warm personality and highly motivated guide (recommendable!). I truly enjoyed walking the three of us through the area. The scenery was beautiful and it was a relieve to walk in such a quiet and peaceful environment. The sourcr of the River Nile on the end was a great way to end the tour.
The atmosphere is so special that it really felt like home to all of us. All respect for Ronie who does a great job there; a true sample of excellent tour guide!
Our tour was wonderful!
This was a great trip, very good valued for money. Our guide was excellent.
