Everything was incredible , from the places we went and stayed to the driver/guide and cook.
We went on the 5 day safari Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro-Lake Manyara&Maasai Village. Everything was incredible , from the places we went and stayed to the driver/guide and cook. We saw the Big 5 and the Maasai village was something special. Many thanks to the driver, Ezekiel, who was so cool and knowledgeable, and also to the cook Chaz, who prepared every meal from scratch, so everytime we had hot meals instead of premade lunch boxes, and that is something we didn't see very often. All in all it was a very good experience and we strongly recommend this company.

5 days Safari
We did a 5 days Safari with them and it was a great experience. Very good communication. The guide was awesome , he knew so many things. Also, the food was amazing. All the meals were cooked (hot lunch and dinner), not lunch boxes. We strongly recommend this company. We have seen all the big five✌️

Incredible experience with a Great Guide
It was a wonderful series of events with our excellent guide Basil. Serengeti is one of the most beautiful places on the world. I definitely recommend Basil for the visitors, he is resourcefully, very positive and kind. He is everything we were looking for.

Vervet Safaris Marvelous Adventure Kilimanjaro trek 8days Lemosho route
My experience with Vervet Safaris with their hikers for 7 day Kilimanjaro trek (Lemosho route) and a 8 days safari in Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. Team which escorted us on Kilimanjaro was so amazing. They were very professional and good at their job. Porters have been incredibly fast at carrying and packing. The cook managed to make a different and tasty meal every day in those conditions. With their support I managed to get to the top with our guide toward summit and porters. They were very cheerful all the way while I was getting tired near the top. My mother was also climbing and she reached the top though she had lots of health complications. With their help it was "piece of cake". I'm very happy that I had such a great company with during this unique experience.
After Kilimanjaro we continued our trip with a safari. We got the best guide Basil who managed to locate and show us all animals you expect to see and more. He is very smart and I learned a lot of interesting... Read more information from him. My favorite part of the trip was visiting Serengeti and overnight stay at a very safe camp and we were attended with great care.
Overall, this trip was unforgettable and i would recommend Vervet Safaris without hesitation

Prompt, transparent, and fair with excellent customer service!
We are so happy that we chose Roaming Africa Tours and Safaris for our honeymoon to Kenya in August 2021. Our tour operator, Hudson, went above and beyond to help us plan the perfect itinerary and respected our budget.
We contacted many other tour companies, but decided on using Roaming Africa because of Hudson’s prompt responses and because his offer was the most transparent and fair. He broke down the prices for us which helped us decide our final package. Hudson was very patient as we contemplated many different destinations and sent us the prices so we could compare. Other tour operators made us feel like we wouldn’t be able to afford such a safari with our budget, but Hudson made our trip possible for us so we could still visit both the Masai Mara and Amboseli National Park.
While on our safari we came across an issue at our first camp (not at all Roaming Africa’s fault), but when we contacted Hudson he responded within minutes and took care the problem immediately.... Read more His level of customer service and responsiveness were outstanding. He continuously checked in with us throughout our trip.
We look forward to recommending Hudson to all of our friends and family who plan to travel to Africa in the future. We hope we can visit again!

Don't hesitate to travel with the best Laxatrails☺️

Amazing honeymoon with Lion King
Our experience was amazing. Ozzie was our tour guide and Yusuph was our chef. If you choose to pick Lion King (which I 100% recommend) ask specifically for Ozzie and yusuph. They are a great team that enjoy their jobs and eachother. Ozzie was extremely knowledgeable with all the animals, plants, culture, and indigenous culture. He answered all our questions and made sure we were comfortable at all times. He let us know the schedule for the next day, every day and was with us from day 1 at the airport. During the safari portions he was constantly listening to the radio shared by other operators to see if there were any rare animals around. At one point this paid off as he quickly moved us so that we could see a cheetah up close. Ozzie is an amazing tour guide and an even better human being.. Yusuph is by far the best cook I have ever met. Every meal we were met with fresh food, he woke up at 5 or earlier most days depending on our breakfast time to make our lunch for the safari and then... Read more our breakfast. Every dinner we had a 3-course meal that you just couldn't stop eating. We truly felt like a family at the end of the trip, we even exchanged phone numbers to keep in touch. Thank you Ozzie and Yusuph and thank you Lion King Adventures!

Amazing experience with Suricata Safaris
We spent the 4-day safari with Suricata Safari and had a blast! We’ve been so lucky to see the big 5 and dozens of different species. Going back with the head full of memories! The whole experience with Suricata and the quality of lodges proposed were both excellent.
The team has been very friendly and helpful from the very first contact to the end of our trip.
Our driver and guide was super knowledgeable about wildlife and knows the parks inside out, and also the great chef who was traveling with the group and cooking fresh meals every day. I can only recommend Suricata Safari, they’re excellent!

Our tour operators Ken, Emanuel and William were very knowledgeable, entertaining, and awesome.
We were supposed to go on this trip last year, but had to cancel due to Covid. We already paid 20% and were a bit apprehensive whether we'd be able to reschedule our trip. We communicated with Paul and he assured us we could reschedule to go at any time. This summer we decided to go for it since things in East Africa seemed pretty good and we were vaccinated. Paul was very informative and helpful when I tried to organize the trip answering my numerous emails very promptly. When we landed we were pleasantly surprised that our guides have been vaccinated! We began the trip with Ken as our guide in Kenya. We visited lake Naivasha, and then Masai Mara game reserve for several days. Ken was extremely knowledgeable, he knew the name of every animal and bird we encountered. He also had an uncanny ability to find the animals! we would always be the first ones on the scene before all the other jeeps. We were even able to see an immediate aftermath of a lioness hunting a wildebeest. Once... Read more we got to the border with Tanzania Ken seamlessly transferred us to into the care of our Tanzanian guide Emanuel who drove us to the Serengeti. We spent a few days in Serengeti which was amazing! Emanuel was just as knowledgeable as Ken, and he also was a big story teller about the culture in Tanzania. He had a little book with some Swahili words and expressions and by the end of 5 days we could say a few of them :). The accommodations in Serengeti were absolutely amazing. It is called tent camping but I've never seen a tent quite like that. The tent had several rooms, a proper shower and bathroom. You could hear and sometimes see the animals right outside the tent. We visited the Ngorongoro crater, Lake Manyara national park and Tarangire. All the parks were amazing in their own way with different birds, animals and flora. From the plains of Serengeti to woods in Tarangire. we then crossed back to Kenya where Ken picked us up at the border and drove to Amboseli national park. Again the accommodations were incredible! Because of Covid we had to get tested before our flight back which was arranged for us and was quick and painless. We stayed an extra day in Nairobi where our guide William took us to Elephant orphanage, giraffe center and a museum. Overall it was an amazing experience made really easy since all the planning once we got there was done for us. I highly recommend Tanzania Roadside Expeditions and in particular their guides Ken, Emanuel and William!
