a quick review say a massive thank you
I just wanted to write a quick review say a massive thank you to you for all your help before we came on safari and also to Moses who was a fantastic guide for us. To be honest before we came we were a little concerned due to some feedback we had seen on Trip Adviser but we honestly could not have asked for more and you guys far surpassed our expectations! As the safari was far cheaper than other companies we thought we might be sharing our vehicle with other people but we were ecstatic to have our own and the accommodation we stayed in blew us away. Moses was amazing; he was such a friendly guy and also very knowledgeable. He was very professional and could not have done more so please thank him from us. Overall you have got two very happy customers here and we have already passed your details on to at least 3 friends so far who are looking at safari’s in the future. Keep up the good work and thank you for providing us with the highlight in our trip of a lifetime – we were so impressed we got engaged at the Ngorogoro Crater Kind regards Keith Hunter & Kelly Williams

Twiga Tours: The Best!
Twiga Tours organized our 2 consecutive company trips - with 85 attendees each week. Rahim and his team did a great job making this trip an unforgettable experience for everyone. Everything perfectly organized and any issues (like transfer changes/ extra hotel nights because of last minute flight changes by airlines etc) solved and arranged without any of the attendees noticing.
Drivers/guides are like walking encyclopedia's!
I'm sure many of our attendees will come back and/or recommend Twiga Tours for their personal holidays!
I certainly will!
Thank you again!

Absolute unique joy
I have just spent one of the best weekends of my life at the serene Lake Mburo National Park. It was a last minute plan, with lots of doubts and changes, but FunRide Team has given me tremendous help to make it easy. They have given me an absolutely fair price, thought through schedule, excellent care and company. Sharifah was a fantastic gentle and expert host, Frank was an awesome driver with extensive knowledge about all kinds of wildlife, culture, vegetation...I will definitely come back and will use FunRide Team for arranging everything.

Amazing trip!
My husband and I spent an amazing 10 days in Uganda with Africa Adventure Vacations and our wonderful guide H. First we worked with Robert to plan our trip and he was very quick to respond to my emails to make sure we had everything we needed. The itinerary was perfect for us, because we love to see as much as possible and we traveled a great distance and enjoyed our time at different lodges. Our guide H was very knowledgeable, fun to be around and so many laughs, attentive, and a good safe driver. He showed us Uganda as it should be from the people in the villages, wildlife, cultures and customs and beauty. Would highly recommend Africa Adventure Vacations.

well managed
I (single traveler with request to join a group) booked 4 days, 3 nights, Masai Mara + Lake Nakuru safari with 4x4
Kakitu our driver and guide for Masai Mara was energetic with keen eye for locating animals
The stay was fine.
For Lake Nakuru due to non-availability of fellow travelers had to go with private Van (costed additional) but the arrangement and transfers were well managed.
Thank you Mika (tour manager) for arranging the entire tour.

Friendly flexible & fun tour!
Benjerman was super responsive to all my questions when planning this safari. It was fantastic having his local knowledge at this busy time of year to avoid the crowds. Our family of three got to see the big five +++. He selected great lodges for our trip.

Long review:
It was definitely the best decision to book the tour with "Best day Safari". I had the best time in Africa during the safari tour.
I booked the 5 day tour and was blown away from start to finish. Everything went perfectly....From the airport pickup, hotels, high-quality accommodations, safari drive, vegetarian meals....everything was uncomplicated and very pleasant. I enjoyed the time with the tour guide Joseph the most. He is certainly the best and most courteous guide you can find. No one knows the animal world as well as he does. In addition, he drives extremely carefully, he was always very patient - always waiting for me.
And I was very lucky, it was rain season- but still could spot soo many animals (even the the big 5 ;)
But I know I owe a lot to Joseph. He made my time so unforgettable. Thank you so much for your commitment! I really had such a great time with you! I would definitely recommend this tour and specially with Joseph!

Horrible - thieves and scammers - stay away at all costs
Charles was the highlight of the trip itinerary was not followed, hotels were canceled at the last minute and rebooked with lower quality, balloon trip was canceled at the last minute for no reason which I actually rebooked at 10 o’clock at night as it was a surprise for the family on my own and paid for it even though it had been pre paid
We were scammed with our covid test, they were supposed to come to Our hotel in Tanzania and do the test, we paid an extra thousand dollars for this And they never showed up and told us they were going to take the Antigen test it was taken three days prior at the border coming into Tanzania and turn it into a PCR test which is medically impossible
I don’t know who they paid off at the border to get us through but I know it was illegal. They took our passports, made us wait at a restaurant for 3 hours and then came back with the passports stamped and ready to go across
I have it in writing in a credit memo that they were supposed to come and give me cash ($2900)the night we left but never showed It’s been four months since we left and back-and-forth they were supposed to send me a wire transfer but it never came and now they are ghosting me.
Avoid them at all costs. Any positive reviews must be written by them or their friends

Phenomenal Safari experience with Ken from Beacon Safaris
Beacon Safaris provided an excellent safari for the two of us. It was very well planned. Communication with Robert was excellent. He was very accommodating in terms of arranging payment, which I was worried about due to Covid. The company is very reliable and excellent. The driver Ken was truly exceptional, he was always in the right place and time to see all the animals. We saw cheetahs, a black rhino, lions, a leopard, giraffes, hippos including baby hippos and many more. We also saw a family of around 70 elephants including baby elephants and we were the only car surrounded by all the elephants crossing the road! Ken also arranged an excellent plan to see sunrise and breakfast with a view in Masai Mara. Ken is an excellent driver, clearly very experienced, kind and easy going. Although we visited several parks which were far away, Ken is a very reliable and good driver who got us places quickly and safely. We previously did a safari in Tanzania, however, the one in Kenya with Beacon Safaris was much better.
