One of a kind!
So, we started the safari with not the best days as it was raining almost everyday. But we have the most wonderful experience ever! From the day we arrived, until the end. Eliud was the one who was handling us and it was such an easy communication. Replies very fast and always manages to respond asap. But then there's Sammy. Our tour guide. What an amazing guy and guide! He was just excellent and I can't imagine if other guides would be able to pull of what we have been through. It has been raining so bad in all the parks so we had gotten stuck a few times. One was very bad going to Masai Mara bec the river was almost impossible to cross but he managed to bring us safe and sound to our hotel. He is very knowledgeable about all the animals and he was doing all the best so we could see all the big and ugly 5. Unfortunately due to the bad weather, we couldn't manage to spot the Leopards. But we couldn't ask for me. Highlights were:
1. Seeing the amazing elephants in herds
2. Walking with the giraffe
3. Boating with the hippos
4. Biking hell's gate! wow!
5. Exploring Masai Mara
6. Our river road (due to heavy rains) crossing that was almost impossible but was made possible by Sammy, truly an adventure of a lifetime!
7. Picnic in Amboseli Park overlooking the whole park
Fave accommodation was Ziwa but all accommodations were wow! Zebra Plains were so nice with the view of the animals just in front every morning. Koponi Lodge was also very typical. Sentrim was also great with lots of food varieties.
Overall, 6/5! Our family loved it! Would absolutely recommend to families and friends!

Very good reception from one of the sales ladies by the name Lina.
Engatuny Luxury Safaris is the best home of Safari where you get the value of your money from their good quality services in Kenya. Their services are very much reliable compared to the other safari and tour companies i have ever used in Africa. Their staff are very much welcoming, there services are more reliable too. I could feel like this should be my next home in future safaris and any time i travel to Kenya.
I compliment Engatuny for their support they gave me with my team from Australia and the whole of my Australian family. Congratulations Engatuny.Keep going and keep shining and see you when i visit Kenya next time soon. Your services are professional and worthy.

Excellent services & best tour operator ... We had a great trip organized
The trip was wonderful - lots of great memories were made. All the arrangements ( hotels, cab transfers) went as planned.....Thank you for your recommendation and putting the trip together. The resort was absolutely beautiful. The infinity rooms food and pools, the palm trees in the main pool,exceeded expectations. Very easy to get in and out, transportation efficient. You did a great job!! Big time pressure on you, trying to make sure the trip meets the expectations for the money.

Very helpful guide, Would definitely recommend!
Our tour guide was very helpful and made us feel safe in Uganda. The touring car was very comfortable also and we were always feeling safe, even in hectic traffic places like kampala. The guide knew a lot about the animals and the way of life in Uganda, but there was also nice banter during the tour. Overall a 10/10.

Incredible tailored family travel experience
Crafted Africa designed and delivered a trip of dreams for my family and I (2 adults / 2 boys aged 10 & 12). The team was passionate, knowledgeable and fantastic to deal with from start to finish. We leaned heavily on their expertise to shape our plans and the Malawi-Zambia-Mozambique itinerary they created for us was perfect, with a thoughtful mix of luxury and eco travel and daily once-in-a-lifetime adventures. From safari to wale-watching, scuba diving to starlit dinners, our trip was jam-packed with unbelievably special moments. Our Crafted Africa guide, Eddie, was knowledgeable and a great host in Malawi and Zambia and the transfers arranged for us by Crafted Africa in Mozambique were seamless. It was evident at every stop of our journey what high esteem Crafted Africa is held in among the lodges and activity providers and we felt incredibly fortunate to benefit from red carpet treatment from start to finish on our trip as a result of their hard work and best-in-class reputation. I recommend Crafted Africa without hesitation for family travel to the region and will personally work with them again at the earliest opportunity.

Well communication and good experience!
Amazing people and parks with a wide variety of big five animals. I was lucky to see Cheetah on the first afternoon drive and lots of many other animals. Our driver, David, became a family on the first day from airport pick up, we had stops on the route to take coffee and pictures with a lot of chat on the history of the great Rift Valley escarpment. When we arrived at Elemtaita lodge we welcomed nicely. We did a 7-day tour which allowed me to view only three park Maasai Mara, Amboseli and Elementaita. Also, my first experience in Kenya so I would think it was sufficient but I need a second trip with Silver Spark Africa. Will definitely returns for longer periods. I do recommended if you are looking for starter park in Kenya, do start with Maasai Mara. This was one of the unforgettable safari of 2023 experience.

Great, organized and customer centered.
The hotel was amazing. The requests made to Smart Voyages were all fulfilled by the hotel and i had a pleasant stay. They went further to organize cake, wine and a boat ride and everything moved seamlessly.

Personalised service
From the time we engaged with Mohammed in planning our one in a lifetime experience through to the 5 day safari journey with Omary as our guide, we cannot say thank you enough. Mohommad was adaptable to develop our the itinerary based upon our requests. We travelled as a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 teenage girls) with Omary as our incredibly competent guide and driver. Omary is really knowledgeable about all the animals (big 5, little 5 and ugly 5!), conservation, and did a terrific job to making sure we could see the animals that were high on our list. He is an excellent driver demonstrating his skill on some of the very wet and boggy roads we encountered. Omary has the best sense of humour, wonderful laugh and is a great story teller. We recommend Travel Africa.
