Wonderful country with lovely people and breathtaking nature
We spend 15 days in Kenya and every day was amazing. All people we met were so friendly, thoughful and helpful. We did a 5-Day-Safari (with Back of Africa Adventure) in four different nationalparks:
- Tsavo East with a diversity of animals and the beautiful red sand
-Amboseli (next to Kilimanjaro) with Lake Amboseli, birds, large meadows
- Tsavo West with Lava, rocks and mountain
- Taita Hills with a lot of lions (and baby lions) and steppe landscape
We saw a lot of animals and it was a pleasure to see that they have a safe life and a lot of space. Diani Beach was also a great experience. White sand, clear water - perfect to relax. We can also recommend all accommodations and the food. Fresh, local, often healthy and always delicous.
We had a great honeymoon and will come back!

Amazing!!
We could not have had a better experience on our Safari (3 day camping Safari & Maasai Tribe Tour). For the price, you can’t beat it. We got to see every single animal (big 5 wooo!), and then some! The jeeps have radio systems so all the guides are in communication and will radio in a location when they see an animal or any activity. Our guide and chef were extremely kind, fun, and knowledgeable. The food was incredible - 3 or 4 courses at every meal & plenty to go around. Tent camping in Africa was an amazing experience, and I had never tent camped prior to this trip. I think one of my favorite parts was the camping and waking up to the animals outside, truly magical. There were many groups of campers in the same area so I never felt unsafe. I do recommend bringing your own sleeping bag & pad though. I used my own in conjunction with the ones provided.
The owner of See Endless, Hammis, went above and beyond to make sure we had the best trip. My friend climbed Kilimanjaro prior to the safari and was still feeling sick from the mountain, and Hammis personally took us to an ER and spent his whole night there translating for us, and even paid when our card wasn’t accepted (we paid him back, of course). He then took us out to dinner afterwards because we had missed our scheduled dinner. We befriended almost everyone we met at the company and still talk to them via social media and What’s App. Such great people, the guides made our whole trip, we miss them so much! I can’t wait to go back, and will definitely be booking everything through our friends at See Endless Adventures!

LIFE CHANGING & UNFORGETTABLE 5 DAYS GROUP SAFARI! NAKUPENDA AFRICA!
My boyfriend and I planned this trip to Africa in 3 months without a traveling agent, one thing we knew for sure was that we wanted to do a Safari. So, when the time came to do research on which one we would select, I'm not gonna lie it was a bit stressful because we did not know much about Safari tours. The 1st one to come up in Expedia and TripAdvisor was Suricata Safaris, and the name was quite catchy to me. I quickly read about it and also the reviews and was VERY happy, but my boyfriend suggested that we kept looking... Just in case...
The day came to select one company, we researched and read reviews for 5 different ones, then 3, then 2, You know which one we chose.
We communicated with the marketing person via WhatsApp Halima was VERY fast at answering all the questions we had, and accommodating our requests, making us feel secure about this whole thing.
Things we were looking for:
Secured transportation to and from the airport.
A group tour- (Because we thought that private was just gonna be boring and we love meeting new people, which ended up being the most gratifying thing because our group was full of beautiful, sweet, amazing people from all over (which is a plus because you learn of other cultures, places and even make plans to visit them)).
A secure place to sleep
Included food and water
An English speaker knowledgeable tour guide (Rocky was our and we LOVE HIM).
We chose Suricata Safaris because we felt it has all of the things we were looking for.
Everything was GREAT, from the driver picking us up at the airport when we arrived taking us safely to our hotel to the dropped off on time so we could catch our flight back to BEAUTIFUL ZANZIBAR.
The tour itself was pretty AMAZING! We stayed at super comfortable lodges, met incredible people, and had DELICIOUS food (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) most of them provided to you.
The food provided to you is cooked by a Chef and is very well prepared for the tour. At the time of lunch, the food will still be warm and also tea and coffee will be provided to you.
You can choose between camping tents or tented lodges. We went with the lodge because we wanted to sleep comfortably knowing that days were going to be long and tiring. Our Favorite was the Suricata Boma Lodge, EVERYTHING about this place is perfection. I will leave another review just for this place.
Our driver for the 5 days was Rocky, I can not say enough about him! Super fun, cool, patient, and very knowledgeable about animal species, age, and relationships. He took his time to let us take pictures patiently and took extra time to find animals like leopards who are hard to find, but at the same time, he kept track of time. He entertained us with his kind and fun personality and made sure that we were all doing well.
EVERYTHING was time to perfection every single day! We arrived at our destinations for the night on time to shower and enjoy a nice dinner and wine (the tented lodges have bars equipped with good liquor, wine, and beers).
To conclude, it was the BEST experience of my life!!! I took so much from Africa, from this tour and the Majestic Animals that I was able to see!
I couldn't contain myself a couple of times and I let it out! It was all happy tears; you feel so connected with nature, the animals, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and the people.
We'll be back Tanzania Pole Pole!
Asante Sana, Suricata Safaris & Nakupenda Africa.

Susan was very effective at understanding our needs and creating a wonderful itinerary for us.
Susan was very efficient and effective at understanding what we were looking for as we were planing our African adventure. Very quickly, we arrived at a wonderful itinerary that met all our desired objectives for what would become a trip of a lifetime and very likely the best one that we have undertaken to date. Indeed, it will be very difficult to top it!
Susan stayed in touch with us throughout the trip. It was a very nice touch since everyone that we dealt with seemed to be very well informed of where we had been and where we were going to next.
Our 20 day trip started with 2 nights at the Hemingways Eden in Nairobi. We wanted to start our safaris rested and adjusted to the jet lag from North America. At Susan's suggestion, our safari consisted of three nights at the Elewana Sand River Masai Mara followed by three nights at the Elewana Serengeti Migration Camp and one night at the Elewana Pioneer Camp. The safari portion of our trip finished with a 2 night stay at the wonderful Ngorongoro Manor and a tour of the Ngorongoro Crater. We flew the "bush" planes to get to and between the first two lodges. The next two, we travelled by safari vehicle. All of the lodges were incredible with impeccable service. The food was excellent and their location and rooms were stunning.
We decided on private game drives and the approach was instrumental in our overall 5 star review. Our two guides, Sayagie in Masai Mara and Charmy for the Serengeti and Ngorongoro, were great. We were fortunate to see the Big Five, including 4 each of the elusive leopards and the rhinoceros. The wildlife was truly incredible. We did not have the opportunity to experience the full migration due to early movement of the wildebeest from their normal migration pattern. They are normally in the Masai Mara in early October, however, early rains disrupted their normal patterns. The wildebeest seemed confused as to which way to go, heading in one direction one day and in the opposite direction the next. Notwithstanding the above, we were awed by the thousands of wildebeest intermixed with zebras, hundreds of lions, elephants, giraffes, etc. It brings a smile to our faces as we recall the two rhinos seemingly chasing the two warthogs as they were running away from a safari jeep that had moved too close for comfort.
Following our safari, we flew to Victoria Falls for 2 nights, staying at the absolutely gorgeous Stanley & Livingstone Boutique hotel. From there, we went for 5 nights at the Table Bay Hotel in Cape Town. Our sightseeing in and around Cape Town was a wonderful way to cap our great African adventure.
We highly recommend Discover Africa and Susan for your African adventure.

Amazing experience again
It was another tour for organized by Ovacado Adventures Ltd for my teavel agency. This time I arrived with 5 people group. Our itinerary of visiting Rwanda and Uganda was realized completely. These two countries are not easy to travel, especially if we have a group of people. But as usually everything was perfectly planned. We had Chance as a driver snd guide and he is professional doing his job.
I recomend to visit these two countries with Ovacado Adventures Ltd.
Thank you Robert for your involvement.
See you soon

Highly recommend Nature Travel
This was our first trip to Africa, and we are beyond happy we selected Nature Travel Namibia. For 10 months, we worked with Nicolette who provided prompt answers to a myriad of questions and guided us to great options. We had never met but we feel that she understand implicitly what we were looking for. We were paired with private guide Joram Matenhese who was absolutely tops! We spent a little over two weeks with him in Namibia and learned so much about nature, the complex cultural and political dynamics between people and animals, and the best places to get coffee and snacks along the way. He is also an amazing expert birder (he knows literally every bird from sight and sound) and knows all the best places and times to see wildlife. It also helped that it seemed like everyone we met in Namibia knows and likes him—from lodge staff to national park gatekeepers to restaurant staff. We felt like VIP traveling with him. Also, we love all natural things—from little to large—and it was a pleasure to be with him reveling in insects, reptiles, mammals, geology, and flora. If we had traveled alone on a self-guided tour, we would have missed so much and been too preoccupied to enjoy the experience. Regarding the lodges, every place we stayed was comfortable, safe, clean, friendly, and well situated within nature. Memorable highlights were hiking Big Daddy, seeing the dunes meet the ocean in Sandwich Harbour, the Living Deserts guided tour of reptiles and insects in Swakopmund, seeing wildlife in Etosha during the dry season, birdwatching in the Caprivi, and taking a helicopter tour of Victoria Falls. We are going to cherish the experience for the rest of our lives, and we are so fortunate to work with this company and be in the great hands of Nicolette and Joram!
