Amazing trip to Maasai Mara!
James was an amazing guide during our trip to Maasai Mara. We got to see the Big 5 in one day thanks to him!! He is very knowledgeable of all the animals who live in the park, we learned a lot about their behavior and about the great migration.
I would highly recommend James if you are planning on going on safari, he is very professional, a great driver and such a nice and funny person!

Very serious. Reliable. I highly recommend to deal with them
It was my first safari in Tanzanie. And what an amazing experience !
After several researches and contacting few companies, I decided to deal with this one as they have been super friendly from day one and listening carefully to all my requests.
We managed to optimize the trip the way I wanted, regarding accomodations, fooding and activities such as hot air ballon experience.
I have been picked up In Kilimanjaro airport. A guy was waiting for me and made me feel super welcomed, explaining me a lot of things on the way to Arusha hotel.
Then the safari started in the next morning. The car was comfortable and the driver gentle, polite and knowing a lot about wildlife.
For three days he provided a lot of informations about animals and knew best locations to spot them. Because of his experience m I have seen the big five !! and obviously many more over wonderful wild animals !!
I can’t stop saying good things about his company. They really made my trip super smooth and super nice.
Whoever read that review, do yourself a favor and book with them.
You will absolutely not regret it ! 100% sure !!
To the next safari tracker: enjoy, you will have a lifetime experience !
And to Serengeti luxury safari, best of luck and success for you guys. You deserve the best.
We will meet again sooner or later !
Such a caring responsible operator
Ameera Africa Safaris is so far the best safari I've ever booked
They have the best services starting with the accomodations , the rooms are self contained with everything , They make u really see the value of your money and they are reliable, if I were every tourist I'd book Ameera Africa Safaris for the best services

Didn't have to worry about a thing— Nziza goes above and beyond in taking care of their clients!
Where to even begin?! My husband and I have Nziza to thank for the most incredible, stress-free, and luxurious 5 day adventure through Uganda we could have ever imagined. From the start, their customer service was unparalleled— Bernard puts his heart and soul into this work and his responsiveness to our texts and calls reflected that. He listened to our wants and helped craft an itinerary that ended up containing two of our most unexpectedly beloved memories of the trip (chimp trekking and an evening boat safari). Even more impressive, when we realized we had our arrival and departure days wrong, Bernard immediately sprang to action and worked MAGIC behind the scenes to completely rework our entire itinerary to ensure we could still keep our highly-coveted gorilla trekking park pass and still hit everything we wanted to see. He even coordinated our flights out of Masai Mara before our time with Nziza and into Cape Town after our time with Nziza, which he could have easily said was beyond the scope of his responsibility. I can only imagine the amount of creativity and work that went into this, but Bernard never let us shoulder any of the stress.
Even before we arrived at our final airstrip to meet our driver, Nziza's above-and-beyond customer service wowed us. Our inbound flights were delayed throughout a long morning of travel, meaning we had to speed through the Entebbe airport to go through customs and connect to our final flight. Imagine our surprise when we get back on our final, tiny plane and find these beautiful vegan meals waiting for us on our seats!! UNREAL. This kind of empathy and attention to detail followed us throughout our trip, including a bottle of wine waiting for us in our hotel room (because Bernard remembered we were on our honeymoon) and samosas on our private boat safari. When my husband and I expressed that we hoped for a long gorilla trek to the furthest family (an unusual request, we were told!), our guide went into private investigator mode asking the rangers for inside intel and, in the end, got us into the group with the furthest trek. Those jungle hikes were unlike anything we had ever experienced and we continue to be so grateful to our guide for helping to make that dream come true.
For anyone thinking of visiting Uganda (or another country they offer) and who wants to ensure their tourism money is going to support a phenomenal local-owned business, I cannot recommend Nziza highly enough. We will be singing their praises for years to come and already look forward to our next adventure with them.
All to say, I will be singing Nziza's praises for years to come and am already dreaming of our next chance to travel with them again.

Materuni waterwalls, coffee tour and Chemka hot springs
I really recommend to go for this one day trip. You will see amazing waterfalls and on the way back you will stop in small village where you will have coffee tour with the explanation of whole process and also local lunch. It was really great. Then you move to Chemka hot springs where you can relax in water. If you will have luck as we had you will also see Kilimanjaro mountain.

Serious and generous
We took the trip to Lake Manyara. We saw a lot of animals, including elephants, lions and water buffalos. The guide was very friendly and knew a lot about the animals and the surroundings. Ever since planning this trip back home I’ve had nothing but good experiences with Suricata Safaris. They are serious, friendly and generous. They take good care of you. And you get a lot for the money.

Good safari, great service and fast communication
Me and my husband had planned for a long camping safari but unfortunately we got sick so we had to stay at the hotel Surikata booked for us. But they we’re so helpful in making sure we could stay at Gateway Lodge a few more nights and when we felt better they arranged a shorter safari for us where we saw lots of animals. It was a great day.
Everything has worked out very well with Surikata, from the airport pickup to the safari and all the small details. The contact with Hilary at WhatsApp has been fast and he has done everything to make us comfortable. I would recommend Surikata!

First class highly experienced operator focused on customer and creating amazing holidays
From start to finish, Darren, Kate and the team at Compass Odyssey were fantastic.. We wanted to create trip with our teenage boys that would have adventure, fun and the incredible Safari experience and the guys nailed it . We worked through the plans for the holiday with Darren and he came back with ideas and suggestions which were spot on and within budget. We stayed in the Victoria Falls Safari Lodge for the first couple of nights and then on to The Hide in Hwange National Park. Both locations were amazing and were better than we could have imagined, thanks Darren for the recommendations. The ongoing communication was great with detailed information relevant to our trip.
Once we landed in Victoria Falls, Mortimer and Ruth were there to deal with transport and any other activities. Tours of the Falls on both sides, Bungee jumping for the lads and White Water Rafting for the whole family. When we arrived at The Hide we were treated to incredible service in one of the most amazing locations in the world. The team at The Hide were top class, the Game Drives with Theo were fantastic and we all got to see and enjoy the incredible wildlife. Nothing beats the early morning sounds of Lion roaring. Back at the lodge the food and service was excellent.
Thank you Darren, Kate and the team at Compass Odyssey, we will definitely be back

Friendly and informative with exceptional service
If you are considering a trip to Africa, I highly recommend Southern Dynasty Safaris for your travel needs. Collins is friendly, informative, welcoming, and provides superb service with attention to detail, ease of transfer, and a dedication to providing amazing experiences. Our team particularly loved the land and boat safaris and camping in the bush! Southern Dynasty Safaris was able to customize different excursions for team members. I’d also highly recommend the four-wheeler ATV course. So much fun! Traveling with Southern Dynasty Safaris really did provide peace of mind as we were so well cared for.

Amazing Honeymoon Experience
This was an exceptional trip. I highly recommend Lion King for a safari in Tanzania. The organization for the months before the trip was made easy and nice. Every question always answered quickly and very helpful. We were provided with all the information we needed such as what to pack. Once we arrived everything from pick up at the airport was effortless. The parks were incredible and our guide David made sure we got to see as many animals as possible ! He also always made sure we had a nice lunch instead of the packed lunches like most people had and there was always a vegetarian option for me which I really appreciated. The accommodations were all incredible with amazing views and very nice staff. Unforgettable experience and highly recommend for a honeymoon :)
