Fantastic Safari Experience
I had my first safari experience through Safari by Z and it was the best way to be introduced. Our guide, Lemomo was extremely informative, savvy, and personable. We got to see every corner of the Serengeti with no question unanswered and expert navigation of the parks. Very easy to coordinate the aspects of each day with great recommendations for changes to the original schedule for better viewing experience or working around inclement weather. Would book again.

A reliable, professional and good value for money quality experience.
I highly recommend this safari tour!
1. Professional and reliable: agency excels in professionalism and reliability. They seamlessly handled the reservation process, accommodating my schedule and preferences.
2. This safari offered the best value for money. While it may not be considered luxurious, it met the needs of a well-traveled person who values comfort and cleanliness. The accommodations were not only comfortable but also conveniently located, adding to the overall satisfaction.
3. My guide Jimmy was knowledgeable and responsible while getting close to the animals. He was a safe driver and a responsible guide who prioritizes wildlife protection. Yet, he managed to get us up close and personal with the animals. Our group witnessed the Big Five and more, with amazing encounters with lions, elephants, and giraffes.
4. This safari is versatile, catering to both experienced travelers and those in need of more support. As a solo traveler, I felt safe and carefree, thanks to the professional, timely, and friendly guide.

6. Delicious and healthy offering, offering a wide variety that never left me feeling unwell.
In summary, this safari agency is a superb choice for anyone looking for a memorable and hassle-free safari experience. Their professionalism, exceptional value, knowledgeable guide, and all-around quality make it a top pick for both seasoned travelers and those new to the adventure.

Professionalism and Closeness
First of all, mention the exceptional treatment with Mary from Spain and with Gonzalo, Pía by email and with Nixon from Tanzania. One feels that he is not "abandoned" at any time.
On the other hand, regarding the Safaris in Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti, I think we had the best guide we could have. Idrisa was attentive to us at all times and, with his knowledge of the terrain and his skill, managed to see all the animals we wanted to see. Incredible from the first to the last day.
Regarding the rest of our days in Tanzania and Zanzibar, everything was great, very well organized and adapted to our needs at all times.
I definitely recommend Kitawa.

Great driver and agenda but they may overcharge you for small things
Pro
- The driver I had was amazing. He knows all the spots and makes the journey smooth
- Their written communication via email is good. They always reply within a few hours
- You can basically join any time, no need to reserve a week in advance
Con
- I’ve found the in-person communication to be not sincere, as I got overcharged in person and it feels like they’d take any opportunity to earn extra money from me
- The agenda includes fixed time at shopping area, and people can easily feel forced to buy things

Gerald 100%
Gerald: Gerald's boundless energy and sense of humor was a delightful touch to the adventure. His extensive knowledge of Kenya's wildlife was impressive, and he consistently led us to the most captivating animal sightings.
Throughout the tour, Gerald expertly balanced excitement and safety, ensuring an exhilarating yet secure experience. His navigation skills were top-notch, allowing us to explore the terrain efficiently. From witnessing the magnificent Maasai Mara wildlife to the serene beauty of Nakuru, the tour provided unforgettable moments. Thanks to Gerald, this safari became an unforgettable journey filled with nature's wonders.
Axis: In terms of communication, the response time was good, although there could be room for improvement, especially when it comes to updating their listings. There are recent changes at the Maasai Mara National Park entrance, and it would be helpful if such updates were reflected in their information.
When it comes to value for money, this tour is quite budget-friendly, which is a definite plus. However, it would be beneficial if they could provide clearer guidelines on tipping and the Maasai tipping expectations to ensure a smoother experience for travelers.

Great 10 day safari!!
Good value for money. We did a 5 day tour in Kenya ... excellent!!! And a 5 day tour in Tanzania, honestly preferred Kenya but Tanzania was very good. The big problem was the jeep in Tanzania kept breaking down ... very poor show here and no excuse...this operator was called 7 wonders ... AVOID THIS COMPANY!!! There are plenty of other.

Gerald went above and beyond to ensure we had a remarkable experience.

What particularly stood out was Gerald’s respectful attitude towards the wildlife and their habitat. His commitment to responsible tourism and his genuine passion for conservation were truly inspiring.
