Great and professional service
The level of service in terms of communication and planning is top notch.

Kudos and keep it up!

promoise that it was a trip of lifetime
The level of communication, service, hospitality, honesty, and quality of their staff were incredible. Our safari met all of our demand and request. Our driver was a local Kenyan but knows how to speak little Chinese like animal words and greetings, which was really impressed. He took care of us like his relatives. If you are having any doubts about travel to Kenya, you MUST go with Sino Africa Safari. They are able to help you to plan a very nice tour. By the way, if you have enough budget, choose landcruiser is best, because comfortable, espcially for elder tourists and children.

One of the best tour company i have travelled with for a very long time.
The Tour coordinator was in constant touch with us from the day we approached him for Quote till the day we departed. We opted for tailor made package, and seems to be cheaper compared to other tour operators around.
They welcomed us at Nairobi Airport. The driver was introduced to us who was with us for 4 days /3nights. The driver was very knowledgeable and explained us each and every detail about the animals we saw throughout out journey. I highly recommend Safari Update Travels for hursle free Wildlife safari planning.

Mr.Silas was very ready to assist in every information I enquired about the safari.
We were a group of 6 friends who had booked our safari package from Sweden with Safari Update Travels for January. And I must say, the overall experience was nothing short of excellent. Right from the initial contact and understanding the best itinerary, to the customization for our needs, and the service we received when we were there. Everything was just great. They were always extremely polite and accommodating. The Camp booked was excellent. Our driver and guide, Mark, was very well aware of the landscape, friendly with the locals and an extremely safe driver.
I highly recommend their services to any of you planning a wildlife Safari to Kenya.

Excellent communication and accommodation!
We booked a stay at Buyala Bliss through this company and we’re very pleased with the logistics. The location was perfect and we had a very relaxing weekend. I would definitely recommend booking through this company.
Thank you!

The best guide/driver ever!
I booked a trip to Uganda with Buyaga Safaris. We started talking about the itinerary way back in October 2020, 5 month prior to the trip. Peter, the owner of the company was super helpful and patient while we managed to come up with an itinerary that was both feasible and appealing to me. Then we agreed to wait until Jan, since I knew that flights can change very easily during this crazy COVID times. In Jan, 2021 Peter helped me get my Uganda visa (well, I requested it electronically, but somehow it needed a bit of local nudging to get a response back) after I booked my flight, and he was also very flexible with the deposit, I paid only about 30% of the total price.
Once in Uganda, my driver was Jazz, how was amazing. Attentive, communicative and very conscientious. He made sure I had fun in Kibale NP, Queen Elizabeth NP and Bwindi NP, and that my COVID tests (needed for the KLM flights) were all in order. The way I could talk with him was almost like talking with any of my buddies at home - he was open, and interested in almost any topics. Great company!
All in all, I can easily recommend Buyaga, since they have really done a great job!

Information about Safari and Hotel was very weak, we had a good driver who did his best
Agency has provided very weak information about trips, hotels, what to expect, and considerations. There was no wifi connection in the hotel, our MTN sims were not working to connect to 4G. We have not been offered an Airtel sim, which is very cheap and had 4G connections in the area. Agency was not aware that Ryno park is closed, there is a bridge construction in the Murchison so the road is suspended, etc. SO, the trip was full of surprises. There were no plugs in tents/rooms. I have been asked for meal preferences, but the only available sausage for breakfast was pork, etc.
Once we arrived at a Murchison Fall, the driver asked if we have anti-insect spray/cream with us. Apparently, we have not been advised to take one, but luckily I had a cream.
The only positive thing was the driver. He was experienced and was doing his best to make us enjoy the Safari.
It doesn't worth of money paid.
I will never choose and advise this agency to others.

Perfect safari with perfect guide
We (me, husband and 7 year-old son) have just come back from our wonderful two-week vacation in Tanzania, which we started with a 6-day private Safari through parks in Tanzania and ended with sunbathing in Zanzibar.
Due to the fact that we were traveling with our child, we spent a lot of time looking for the right company to go on Safari with - we probably read all the available reviews about companies, their guides, available accommodation, we exchanged a lot of e-mails - and finally we chose Gosheni Safaris whose offer seemed to be the best, and Peter - its owner, patiently and promptly responded to all our inquiries and made changes to the program as requested.
The choice turned out to be PERFECT - we have quite high expectations, but the way our Safari was organized far exceeded our expectations (which happened to us for the first time in our lives).
We visited Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, Ndutu, Serengeti, Tarangire. We also took a balloon flight over Ndutu. We stayed at the Marera Lodge, Acacia Migration Camp in Ndutu and Acacia Seronera Luxury Camp.
Everything was perfect but the best part of it was our guide - Ombeni - he was just AWESOME !! :) - smiling and full of energy, he picked us up on the first day from the airport, even though our plane was delayed by a few hours, and then was only better. We saw with him probably all possible animals (including big five): lions, cheetahs, hyenas, leopards, elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippos, wildebeest, various antelopes, monkeys, jackals, foxes, snake, crocodile, turtle , wild pigs, all kinds of birds, rhinos, ostriches. All the animals were spotted by Ombeni with his eagle eye. He wanted us to have a perfect view of animals and gave us as much time as we wanted that we could enjoy the view. We had the impression that he was happy with us (even though he had already seen thousands of these animals;)) He has a big knowledge (he graduated from tourism) about wildlife and Tanzania. He took care of all of us at every step, it was not even necessary to say that we need something, because he watched us and he recognized what we needed - it was amazing :) We felt very cared for and safe. In addition, we were very comfortable with him - which was important, because we spent all days in the car together :) Ombeni is also a great driver - we felt very comfortable, everyone liked his fast driving when needed (especially my 7-year-old). It should be added that the car was almost new, extremely comfortable, with air condition. Ombeni took care of the car, it was always clean, even when we were driving on the biggest mud. We think that without Ombeni our Safari wouldn’t be so perfect - we didn’t know before that the guide is so important (if not the most important) - so it is worth choosing the best one (I recommend Ombeni with all my heart).
We should also mention that the food during Safari was delicious. Also all the accommodations were great, especially Acacia Migration Camp in Ndutu - where the service was professional and wonderful - the top hotel staff should learn from them!
About Safari itself - it is difficult to describe in words, beautiful breathtaking views, wonderful nature and animals - you have to experience it. I guess nothing beats this trip.
We highly recommend Safari with Gosheni Safaris and Ombeni as your guide.
