Organized, caring and efficient
We had a 5 day safari in tarangine Park, serengeti, ngorongoro crater and lake manyara. One adult and 2 kids. All of it was amazing. Our guides, Shuma and Brison were very helpful and took care of us. They tried with all their enthusiasm to be able to see all animals. With their persistence we saw the big 5 and even saw leopard and cheetah! They gave good information and answered to all our questions. Peter, the cook, made very tasty food for us. Nelson, the organiser, solved effectively and quickly any difficulties even apart from the safari. They all made us feel safe and welcomed to this beautiful country. I wish them all the best and I recommend the tour to anyone who is interested to go. Thanks a lot for everything

Perfect trip
The trip was very well organized from the beginning til the end.
We booked with Mamu Travels few months ago and travel beg of Dec.
Guides came to pick up us in Nairobi, on time (very punctual), we traveled in the agreed car to Masai Mara. We planned stops for coffee breaks and Rift Valley.
The Lodge was very welcoming and the hippo bar was amazing.
The game drive was excellent, guides very professional, we saw the big 4 from very close.
Then, we visited Masai Village and discovered their culture.
Amazing trip !
I recommend to anyone, Mamu travels are professional!

Outstanding guide and wildlife
Albert was excellent throughout, guiding us to some astounding wildlife in both Masai Mara and Nakuru national parks. All staff we encountered along our journey were wonderful and they contributed greatly toward the experience. The only slight issue was to do with the logisitics of having multiple tours in one vehicle but that was also navigated well, to be fair to the operators.

A trust-worthy tour operator - You'll be treated by Patrick like family from day 1 of contact!
Traveling with Genius Kilimanjaro Climbing is not just about climbing a mountain, or going on safari. It's about being in touch with the team. We felt so well received by Patrick, being picked up at the airport, guided to the hotel, receiving a thorough brief on what to expect on the mountain, and then the climb itself. Patrick has an amazing team set up to make sure you will be okay.
I got sick on the mountain, and their care and kindness towards me is what lead to me reaching the top. Without the Genius fighters (the team), I would not have made it to the top of the Kilimanjaro, because a very large component of climbing to the top is mindset; which they made sure was at the right place.
They are very trustworthy, and Patrick will go above and beyond to make sure you have the trip of your life. We went on our honeymoon, and to the smallest detail he made sure we would have a honeymoon to never forget. They are great not only at planning trips on the mountains, but also the safari, and a relaxing stay at Zanzibar including an unforgettable swim with dolphins.
Thank you G-Fighters, and thank you Patrick. You've been the best we could have hoped for!

Don’t look further!
My friend and myself just finished the 8-Day Victoria Falls, Chobe NP and Okavango Delta Tour with Webster on Christmas Eve while the enquiry was handled by Owen 6 months ago.
Throughout the process and trip, both Owen and Webster were professional, accommodating and very friendly.
Despite the fact that all the activities were outsourced, we enjoyed particularly the spectacular Victoria Falls National Park and the Full-Day Safari and Early Morning Drive in Chobe National Park where we saw the big five, with the exception of the rhino. This is in addition to other animals like the hippo, giraffe, impala, hyena and others.
As for the accommodation, we enjoyed Chobe Safari Lodge as the safari room was huge, there was a pool to soak after a long day, 2 excellent restaurants (ala carte and buffet dinner) to choose from and not forgetting breakfast with sparkling wine to start the day.
Though it was not clear on a few days if all meals were included with the use of HB/HB+ instead of FB/FB+ in the itinerary, this was duly sorted out by Webster. There was also a slight delay of our journey on day 6, this was rectified with a service recovery lunch and apologies from him.
All in all, do enjoy yourself and most importantly, manage your expectations as you embark on your next amazing journey with him.
Note: A friendly tip that the Elephant Sands Lodge do not have air conditioning but the stay was still ok with the morning chirping of birds at 5am and how they kept themselves busy with their nests at the restaurant area where breakfast was served.

Amazing experience! Perfect execution!
Create Tours did a fantastic job with their safari tour. We did a 4 day tour and visited Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater and had the best time! We got to see all of the big five and ate amazing food. Our accommodations before, after and during the tour were done really well and everyone was friendly throughout the tour. I would definitely recommend Crater Tours to others!

Well organized 4 day safari trip!
Noel from Serengeti Luxury Safaris is not only a well-organised and responsive tour operator, he is also a very special person and made my experience even better. If you get the chance, enjoy a drink with him and listen to his endless stories!
Our safari guide, Josef, knows his way around parks and is incredibly knowledgeable about the species, the culture and how the two interact. He explained and showed us a lot!
The accommodations were all very different and simply fantastic. The car was comfortable and we always had drinks to hand.
However, I was on a group tour and we were a mixed group from different operators which led to extra driving time (as we stayed in different camps etc). While this can be a bit annoyig, it is also worth the money you save compared to a private tour. However, it's good to know and be prepared for some extra waiting time - if you're not prepared to do this, I would recommend booking a private tour.

Incredible 9 days of Tanzania
We had wonderful 8 nights and 9 days of Tanzania wit FOA, Hamidi and his team of guides and driver was so professional and we feel safe and taken care of. Everyday was an amazing experience and we get to see and do what we planned for. The food was also amazing. We are so happy to recommend FOA to our fri6ends and family and we are also planning to return to Africa again soon.

Fantastic Guide and Safari experts
The one week tour of Kampala, Murchison falls and Safari in Uganda was unforgettable. James's Exclusive uganda Safari provided extremely knowledgable guides who told us about the History and culture as well a site specific information. I would recommend them to anyone and if I were to return, I would use their service.

Beacon Safaris is accommodating, flexible, professional, and provided an incredible experience.
We did a 5-day safari, including Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli National Parks. This was our first safari, and it was everything we hoped it would be. Booking and communication with Robert beforehand were great. Robert was quick to respond and answer our questions. He was even able to accommodate a last-minute change to our itinerary, which we were very thankful for. Our guide, Ken, was amazing. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. He was able to answer all our questions and show us some incredible things during our trip. Roger and Ken were flexible and accommodating and helped meet our needs and requests. It was truly a trip of a lifetime. We would go again in a heartbeat. We highly recommend Beacon Safaris!
