Great wildlife as per expectations
Great wildlife - tons of animals accompanied by beautiful trees and plants. There were paved roads, lots of tourists and lot of vehicles, but that didn't deter me from loving my trip to Kruger. The size of park is as of small country, so there is PLENTY of room and lots of places to go. The wildlife, scenery, accommodations, food, transportation, guide...everything was put together very well by MoAfrika Tours, for a wonderful trip. We traveled in a good and comfortable big vehicle . We stayed at Marc's Treehouse Lodge at night. The food was all included, but the whole group helped cook the meals. Our guide was great and knew a TON of information about the park, but was also quite funny! I completely 100% recommend MoAfrika Tours and Kruger as a safari destination.

great family trip
Great family trip to Kenya (3rd trip to Kenya: we love it!)
We had made our tour choices and pre-selected our lodges / hotels preferably. Into Adventure Safaris responded to our request, gave us their advice and organized the whole circuit in the best possible conditions. We returned delighted and were delighted to introduce our daughters to Samburu and Masai Mara.
Big thanks to Ben our guide, driver and traveling companion, for his kindness, his discretion, for taking care of us, ensuring our comfort and for ensuring all the safety conditions during this crossing of Kenya.
Prudent and attentive driver. Knowledgeable and professional guide. And finally traveling companion who knew how to make us share the wild beauties of the savannah and the riches of his country. Thank you Ben on behalf of the whole family for this unforgettable stay.

Our 15-day Kenya/Tanzania experience was thrilling and exceeded our expectations.
I read through a few guidebooks and screened several operators listed on safaribookings.com before selecting African Sunset Safaris, owned and operated by Haron Gashao. Their "15-day Best Program for Photography" Itinerary (Amboseli, Sweetwaters/Ol Pejeta, Samburu, Nakuru, Naivasha, Maasai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire) was near-perfect for what we wanted. Haron is an excellent, personable (even droll at times), professional and knowledgeable guide, familiar with the animals and their habits and therefore an excellent spotter. He can and does go off-road where permitted -- all the better to spot such amazing sights as 3 roving rhinos, a mother cheetah with 4 playful cubs, a pair of mating ostriches, and yet another cheetah in tall Mara grasses lunching on a gazelle. Along the way, you will view every animal possible -- the "Big 5" almost certainly. We saw 4 different leopards along the way, and they can be very elusive. Parades of elephants and giraffes, every antelope-like creature from the tiny dikdiks to the enormous elands. Sure, many lions and hippos. A stampede of thousands of wildebeests. A zillion zebras. Crested cranes and many many other birds. Hyenas, wild dog, jackal, pointy-eared African foxes, mongoose...we even spotted a rarely seen small cat, the serval. Haron is also a very skillful driver of his large Land Cruiser -- important for the often very bumpy and sometimes flooded dirt roads that you will inevitably encounter. We stayed in wonderful lodges with outstanding food, accommodations, and views (e.g. Serena and Sarova properties) and also in a few very comfortable if only slightly spartan tented camps. Haron was good about communicating and answering questions up-front, and adjusted and added to our trip plans per our interests and requests. He seems to have good relationships with the lodges and camps that enable him to get very good value . . . much better pricing than booking through a US company (that would only subcontract with an African operator anyway) and even better than many other African operators that I looked into. Be on notice that Kenyan and Tanzanian guides, per local rules, can only work in their own countries... so that you will have a different guide for part of a 2-country safari. In our case, Haron had promised the highly-praised Gideon for our Tanzania portion, but his Land Cruiser broke down and couldn't be repaired in time. The replacement was a capable and personable young guide, Erick, but the vehicle was somewhat older and smaller. Hey, stuff happens. It also rained a lot the week before we arrived (a month before the annual rainy season). That caused some challenges with huge ponding puddles and mud, and some concern about possible itinerary adjustments, but it all worked out. We had a wonderful and amazing experience. Keep your sense of adventure and sense of humor, and go with the flow . . . with African Sunset.

The best tour company that offers excellent and quality services that I have travelled with they are
The communication is up to the mark because the company gives proper direction to tourists hence no confusion to and from the destinations. The staff are friendly, welcoming and social to clients and no complain has been raised on the same. Their rates are pocket friendly to many and they give value for one's money. The company has advanced technology hence a modern feel.

Best safari experience ever
From the booking process to the end of the safari, everything was perfectly done. My contact, Joel was always helpful and gracious and certainly knows his business. We went to Masai Mara, Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, all of which were spectacular in their own ways. Our accommodation facilities were amazing, the food was good. Our guide, Mungai, knew what he was doing and managed to find the big five for us. We always knew we were in excellent hands with him. We took a private safari, lots of room in land cruiser to bounce around on safari, the best experience! We were a couple and never felt unsafe at any time and we loved it all!

Trekking in the lush grasslands along Murchison falls
I spent two days in Murchison Falls National Park, throughout 4 day tour booked with East African Jungle Safaris. The reserve is beautiful and filled with an abundance of wildlife, many types of Antelope, Cape Buffalo, Elephants, Giraffes, Hippopotamus, Lions and scores of exotic colourful birds. I was fortunate enough to see a Lion resting in a tree and that was one of my expectation while touring. Normally Lion do not sleep in trees.
The Nile River and the falls are outstanding with a beautiful scenery, and I highly recommend to have a trip with this river. There you will get an opportunity to see water is life with all types of wildlife making its way to the banks of the Nile to quench their thirst.

Great guys and local operators
Richard was great to deal with from the start and helped plan out our trip from start to finish with all our requests and adjustments.
The accommodations were great and best thing was using local operators in place of overseas investors. Would much rather see our money go to the people and communities.
Price was more than competitive and worth every cent.
Colleb was our guide and Richard even joined us for part of the trip.
Colleb was great from start to finish, just such a nice guy and loved his job.
Would book with these guys again without a question.
Colleb and Richard keep up the great work and hope to see you again soon.

Excellent safari and tour company!
The service and communication from Wild Wings was excellent. They were prompt and answered all my questions. The safari was well planned and our tour guide really took care of everything: driving, planning, teaching, cooking and cleaning!
This was our first safari and we did a 4 day Kruger safari. We were amazed at the vastness and beauty of the park and the animals were incredible in their natural habitats. The park accommodation was good and as advertised. We do recommend 4 days to be more relaxed and have a better chance to see all the big 5.
The days were long and we started early to see as much as possible.
Overall, the safari was an an excellent experience and we would definitely book with Wild Wings again.
