Perfect
Perfect experience with this travel agency. 3-day safari in Masai Mara. Detailed description of the trip, accommodation. We got what was promised and more. They answer questions immediately. Very polite guide. We felt safe all the time. We took advantage of accommodation in Rhino - very good care, clean, tasty food, fresh. Obviously it's a budget hotel but we paid for one and nothing let us down. You can see that they care about the client, which will give them more. I wish them this

Our guide made the Safari a lot better than we could imagine!!
For our first safari experience, we chose It Started in Africa following a friend recommendation and we couldn't have made a better choice.
Everybody was kind and friendly, all emails were answered within 24 hours and everything was organized very well (a lot of patience in answering all our doubts and crafting the tour on our desires with many excellent suggestions).
We did a 4-day private safari and it was the best experience ever! We visited three parks: Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater.
Our guide Jarabu was great, very knowledgeable providing us with lots of information about the parks and the animals. His huge experience in Safaris and his safe and patient driving, made us feel super leisurely and gratified. And became a friend not only a guide but a companion of the trip.
Also the accommodations booked by It Started in Africa were super, very comfortable and clean.
After the safari we also spent a day in Kilimanjaro base in which we visited a Coffee farm and a waterfall. It was very interesting and the local lunch was delicious.
Everything went perfect and we loved our trip.
We highly recommend It started in Africa!!

Lion King created the perfect safari for our family!
Our safari with Lion King Adventures was perfect, from the moment of booking, until our departure flight. They provided clear and concise communication throughout the booking process and through our arrival. Our guide, David, was very knowledgeable and professional, he seemed to know how to get us into the perfect spot to view the animals. He was patient with our kids, on time, and an all around great guide. They also provided VERY GOOD food for lunch each day.

EXCELLENT SERVICE, I AM VERY HAPPY WITH MY TRIP
They were very good and we had a good opportunity to see Animals and to do the boat ride over the Okavango delta. It was a very amazing experience and the staff was super friendly also and I got to learn a lot from them.

Trip of a lifetime by discoverafrica.com
We booked our Tanzanian and Kenyan safari though Megan Warrington of Discoverafrica.com. Megan was superb and planned the perfect safari for us. All connections / pickups and accommodations were flawlessly executed.
We started off in Ilkeliani, on the border of the Masai Mara park (you cross a little footbridge next to the tents over the Talek river and you are right in the park) which is professionally managed by Sylvester. He happily and obligingly dealt with all our requests. We were treated to 3 delicious meals / food boxes per day. The camp prepared food exactly according to our dietary requirements. At night we heard the hippos and hyenas of the park from our perfectly appointed tents.
The highlight of the stay were our safari drives. Our devoted guide Joseph showed us amazing sights ranging from cheetahs marking their territory, a leopard guarding its kill, and lions feasting on zebra. In addition to that, Joseph opened our eyes to the Masai culture.
After that we flew over to the Serengeti where we spent 5 wonderful days at the Nasikia mobile migration camp in the northern Serengeti national park.
Our game drives by Andrei were an unforgettable experience. Through his patience and insights were experienced several Mara river crossings, one spanning over 15 minutes. We saw all the big 5 including a Leopard stalking gazelles and lions and their pride playing in tree.
The mobile camp is located on the top of a hill, and we were literally surrounded by wildebeest and zebra herds.
The food was deliciously prepared by Martin who took great care of our dietary requirements. Showers were a little challenge because there is no running water, so they are bucket showers. The tents though were well equipped and very comfortable.
After that we flew over to Karatu where we visited Lake Manyara park (didn’t see flamingoes or tree lions unfortunately, but the park is beautiful) and the Ngorongoro Crater, filled with game.
We would highly recommend Megan and her team at Discover Africa.com.

Priceless experience with family care
We just returned from 3days safari in group guided with best host/guide/driver-Jimmy!
Everything was organized perfectly with care of each member of our group of 7 people.
During safari itself we managed to see all the animals, that was amazing.
The stay in the camp, which the axis booked for us was also nice end even in hard night rain we felt comfortable in our let say house)
The long way from Nairobi to masai Mara is planned with comfort brakes for coffee/toilette, when everyone can manage to move and walk a little after a long stay on car.
The car itself is also comfortable and clean every morning, even after strong rain.
Everything is made with real care and hospitality.
I will recommend Axis to my friends for sure!

The best life time unforgettable experience in my life is what I got with Lionking safari!
Excellent service given by Lionking adventures safari! This is unforgettable experience! I have no words to describe! Jim and Rose organized our tour which covered everything we wanted to do! I have been in touch on WhatsApp in 2020. They spent so much time preparing itinerary to meet all our requirements to make sure we can do all that we wanted to do. Unfortunately we had to cancel in 2020 due to Covid. They respectfully considered my concern and I canceled my trip. They did not get upset at all. Finally I decided to book in 2022. We are vegetarian and they made sure that all our meals are vegetarian. Great service!
Our guide Salehe was amazing! He made every effort to make sure we get to do all that we wanted to do. At one point I gave up to see Mara river crossing but he did not. He made it possible not once but twice for us to watch! I wish I can post this video! I recommend Lionking adventures safari very strongly to everyone if they want to make this experience a memorable one! Thanks to Lionking staff for giving us this lifetime spectacular experience! Thoroughly enjoyed and still cherish these memories!

Levis was amazing to work with from start to finish. Great attention to detail and timely responses.
We worked with Levis at Hallmark Travel Planners for a family vacation to Tanzania. He was very quick to respond and gave us several options to work with based on time, budget and location. We had an amazing experience and would highly recommend them.
