I just want to say thank you in English, xiexie in Chinese, and asante sana in Kiswahili
We enjoyed our Chinese new year festival break in Kenya and Tanzania 11 days trip. My family were so happy. Driver was amazing, good food, good car, and good service. Price was very fair compare with other agent. I met the founder in their own famous Chinese restaurant Mr Li, very friendly to us, tell us his stories when he came to Kenya in 1980s. Nice people and nice trip.
Recommend Sino Africa to anybody and everybody!

A Fantastic 2 day safari
I decided to go for a two days safari with Jiwe Adventures after completing the Kilimanjaro hike with them. I thought that after living such a wonderful experience Jiwe adventures would provide a similar experience with the safari and I was right. Our safari guide was amazed... as was I, that the first day revealed such a great variety of animals. Jiwe adventures is a well organized company with employees who respect their customers and see to their well being. I can't emphasize enough about the great experience and adventures I lived while in the hands of these people which I hold in high regards.

Was an amazing experience, we could not wish more what we received from the Wakamda team!
From the begging Bartho was really helpful and always available. He also picked us up from the airport and gave us all the information what we needed. The 4 days safari was just amaizing. Our guide Ernest and our safe Chilli was helping us in any cases, any time. Our safari experience was something what we could not even imagine. That was our first safari but definitely not the last! Thank you for everything again! Wakanda forever!

We had an amazing trip and an absolutely carefree vacation
We went on a trip to Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli, Tsavo West and Diani Beach.
Classic journey did an excellent job in organising the whole trip. The choice of Nationalparks and Hotels/Camps was excellent - every place has its very own charm and is worth the visit! Everything was very well organised from the pick-up in Nairobi to the drop-off at the airstrip in Ukunda.
A special thanks goes to Sami, our guide! Even while driving, he spottet most of the animals before we did :) he knows the flora & fauna, is an exceptional driver and has a good sense of humour. Thanks for taking us on this adventure ;)

We loved our Safari with Mufasa!
We had a more than wonderful time on our safari with Mufasa. When I initially started looking to plan a safari, I reached out to multiple different safari companies. A Mufasa rep responded quickly and sent options at different price points. Mufasa let me pull a couple things from the different price points to work with my budget to create a plan that worked for me.
For the first half of the safari we were visiting the Masai Mara and had a driver named Samuel, we called him Sam. Sam was so friendly and welcoming. He took us all over the Masai Mara and was able to show us 4 of the big 5. We were able to see 11 cheetahs, 5 lions, 1 leopard, 3 rhinos, and tons of giraffes, elephants, birds, etc. The drive from Nairobi to the Masai Mara and back is very long, but Sam made it very enjoyable. By the end of the trip we were singing in the car together. Sam’s English was great, he also spoke Spanish perfectly too. He was very knowledgeable on all the animals and was able to answer all our questions.
The second half of the trip we visited Lake Nakuru and Amboseli with a guide named Charles. Charles was very friendly and knowledgeable of all the animals as well. We were able to see the rhinos which completed the big 5 for us. Charles took us all over and was very patient with us and our many questions. He was very knowledgeable about all the animals and changing terrains. Charles took us out on the last day to see the sunrise in Amboseli which was amazing with Mount Kilimanjaro.
All the lodges and parks were beautiful. We used a land rover for half the trip and a safari van the other half to save money. Both were great for viewing the animals. The different parks and reserves were all so beautiful. My husband and I were more than pleased with how easy and carefree the planning was using Mufasa. We have no complaints. Everything went as planned. My husband and I have traveled a good bit, but this trip was one of the best we have ever done.
Do not miss out on the hot air balloon ride over the Masai Mara if you can afford it. It was like nothing I have ever experienced. The visit to the village of the Masai Tribe was also very interesting and moving- if you can this is an amazing experience as well.

Trip of a lifetime, well organized and a top class driver/guide
It is difficult to find the words to express how much we enjoyed our custom made 9 day tour through Gosheni to Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Manyara. I referred to our driver/guide, Hassan, as our walking/driving encyclopedia. He was extremely well informed and made everything even more interesting. We learned so much in the process. He went above and beyond to satisfy our needs, from my husband’s interest in photography to dealing with family issues we had and having to find WiFi. He was an extremely responsible driver too traversing the unbelievably bad roads. He was very good at finding out just where to go by communicating with the other drivers, and as a result of that and his knowledge of what to look for, we saw the most incredible sightings, from lions and leopards in trees, mating of lions, birth of wildebeest in the middle of migrations, one of the most amazing experiences, and so many colorful birds both large and small. I cannot speak highly enough of him. Gladys and Jessica in the office added to the magic of this safari by making sure our anniversary and my birthday were celebrated, not just at one of the lodges, but all of them!!! It was truly a trip of a lifetime.

Excellent service and a fantastic experience in Uganda
Matoke tours and Madeliene our travel Consultant provided us with excellent service during the entire booking process. She was proactive and proposed a better alternative than the one we initially asked for. I really recomend to fly in to Kigali and drive thru the country to Uganda and Lake Mutanda.
The gorilla trekking in Uganda was a fantastic experience and a memory for Life. The hotel and the location at lake mutandan was really great, even better than I expected. The Gorilla tracking itself was very exciting. We was also very well taken care of by our driver from Matoke Tours the entire trip. We also had time to spend a few hours in Kigali Before our flight back which I really recomend,
I have worked more than 20 years in the travel industry with both Groups and events and individual travel and this was a first class experience. Thank you!

The 4-day journey into the wildlife of Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru
We went on a 4-day safari to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru with Peter from Mufasa tours and travels.
Whatever questions we had about the animals, traditions or anything else - our guide and driver Peter was able to answer! Also Peter was very helpful to his colleagues that had troubles on the road (not all of them are as good drivers as Peter :) ) and was respectful to animals.
He has huge experience in safaris and it looks like he knows everybody and also knows all animal's favorite places.
Joseph, the contact from the Mufasa, answered all our questions before the safari and helped us a lot!
It was the journey that we will never forget!
Thank you guys!
