A lifetime experience!
We did a private guided safari and your in August 2021, it was awesome! Our guides Gerald and Dismass were great and took us to amazing places. We visited Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
We saw all the animals and it was very educating, they both were very knowledgeable and explained everything we wanted. Hotels and lounges were awesome too. Not even one glitch.
All round perfect experience.

Friendly atmoshpere in an unforgettable adventure
Amazing adventure.
Our guide Peter was very friendly, always on time and supportive of our need. The chef was great all the way. The camping trip of the best National Parks was well organized.
Just one tiny problem: the car was pretty old and not that confortable for the long travels.
Overall, I would definitely suggest the experience.

Unique African experience
We choose Bujo Tours because of its splendid ratings, the competitive price and fair cancellation policy and were not left disappointed. Our friendly driver led us to some very particular places at Nyerere, which we liked most, especially because of its breathtaking landscape. Also the combination with the boat trip and the walking safari was excellent, where we were engaged in a thrilling elephant experience. We also took the best animal pictures at Nyerere, even if we had to wait for the lions until we got to Mikumi. However, transfers to Mikumi and back to Dar Es Salaam are long and quite exhausting, but the amazing rides through numerous African villages compensates for the effort we had to take. They gave us a perfect view on how people live. However, I would not recommend the Selous-Mikumi combination for families with smaller children.
I‘d definitely recommend to visit Nyerere (we also liked the camp) and want to thank Bujo Tours for the perfect organization and easy going communication (we booked the trip in advance from home). We had a great time and collected many exiting and rewarding experiences.

Vraie expérience Masai /Authentic Masai experience
Mpairo et son équipe sont d'excellents guides. C'est une plus-value absolue d'aller dans la région avec de vrais Masai. Les guides et les observateurs ont grandi dans le Masai Mara et connaissent la région comme leur poche. Ils sont maîtres dans l'art de trouver des animaux et sont toujours très excités chaque fois qu'ils repèrent un rhinocéros ou un léopard rare. Le service et le déjeuner étaient délicieux et l'apéritif au coucher du soleil est également fortement recommandé. Voulez-vous une véritable expérience dans le Masai Mara? N'hésitez pas et réservez avec Namayiana !!
Mpairo and his team are excellent guides. It’s a significant added value to travel with real Masai who grew up in the region and know the park like the inside of their pocket. They are masters in finding animals and remain super excited when they retrieve a rare rhino or leopard. The service and lunch were excellent and I would definitely recommend the sundowners. If you’re looking for an authentic experience in the Masai Mara, I would not hesitate and book again with Namayiana!!

Traipsing Africa delivered an awesome Sabi Sands experience
Traipsing Africa was able to work with us and found a resort on the Sabi Sands that was in our price range, but much exceeded our expectations. Sandra booked us at Umkumbe safari lodge and the service, food, and game drives were excellent. There were no problems at all, with the booking and payment, as well as the safari itself - everything went smoothly. You can trust these folks will come through for you on your own safari!

Amazing Safari, excellent driver and guide
We had an amazing time on our safari!! We were a bit lost trying to pick a safari in the beginning. There are hundreds of safari companies out there with so many options. It was so hard to choose what operator to go with. After a lot of research and communication with different operators we decided on Suricata Safaris for our 7 day safari. We were looking for a private tour for two. They had lots of positive reviews and the communication we had with Hillary in the office was excellent. We are just back and we couldn't be happier with how it went! It was so amazing. We saw so much and each day brought something new. Our guide and driver Mandela was so knowledgeable and friendly. The food was always top notch and we had some great picnic spots along the way. He was always very careful and made the long journeys on bumpy roads as comfortable as possible. The accomodation was fantastic and your every need is attended to. We would highly recommend them!

Incredible from start to finish
We are just back from a 7 day private safari with Suricata and had such an incredible time. The booking process with Hilary was seamless and emails were always responded to promptly. The whole experience was managed so well - from pick up at the airport to all the accommodation and food, we didn't have to worry about any of the small details, it was all sorted already by suricata. When we decided last minute to do a hot air balloon ride it was no issue at all and Hilary once again came through and got it sorted in no time.
Our driver, Mandela, was incredible and great company. He was so knowledgeable about all the animals and an incredible driver that made the bumpy roads of serengeti that bit easier! Having spent 7 days on the road together we learnt so much from him and he showed us just how incredible tanzania is as a safari destination. Along the way we bumped into a number of other suricata drivers who also seemed just as friendly so you'll be in safe hands with whoever you get (although we highly recommend Mandela, he made our entire trip so enjoyable).
The accommodation that the team booked for us was so comfortable, and the food was delicious each day.
This trip was a once in a life time experience and I have no hesitation in recommending suricata to anyone. The value for money, the jeep, the accommodation and the food were all top notch. Thank you suricata for a trip of a lifetime!

Excellent Nairobi tour with Safari Update Travels!
Safari Update Travels were able to help me get a group joining tour at the last minute on the night prior to. The tour of Nairobi was excellent. We saw a lot of animals including a pride of lions, warthogs, buffalos, cheetah's and zebras. Our guide Sam was the best, very experienced driver. He took us close to where the animals were so that we could get a glimpse of them. The staff at Safari Update Travels were very friendly and had excellent communication, special thanks to Linsel. Their rates are very competitive and they provide excellent services. Thank you for the experience!

Amazing Experience despite one thing
Jocky tours, Isaac and John allowed us to have a great experience in our first safari in Kenya. Isaac was really helpful during all our stay. Just to write down, that despite it was not fault of Jocky tours and Isaac, someone, during our stop to have lunch in our last day of the safari, stole one bag from one person of the group. Despite that, an amazing experience. Maybe, regarding Jocky Tours I would not include this restaurant for future tours, as may not be safe for tourists. Thanks again Isaac and Jocky Tours for the experience.
