Very good operator! You can trust!
We went for a 3 days / 2 nights Safaris in the Mara at Basecamp Explorer. Beacon Safaris have planned all the trip for us! We had a great experience with everything (accommodation, meals, etc.) The driver (Antony) is Excellent! He was explaining us a lot about the animals, the Mara, The Maasai people, etc. We really appreciated that he took time to explain us a lot of things during the Safaris!

Excellent tour operator & guide
We spent 9 days touring Namibia: Etosha, Namibie dessert, Petrified forest, bushman engravement, Swakopmund, Walvis Bay and sand dunes. Our guide Alpheus Kaakunga was great. He was our driver and guide all the way since we were pick up at the airport till he dropped us at the airport again for our departing flight. Very pleasant and knowledgeable guide. Our group was small, only 4, so we have enjoyed every minute of it.

The perfect Safari
Everything was very well organised. Our Guide (Andrew) and the Chef (Machete) were excellent! Andrew is very experienced and knew all the good spots for the animals. We saw the „big 5“ multiple times!

Excellent 6-day safari - we recommend
We booked a six day, two person (couple) private safari to Masai mara (2 nights), lake Nakuru (1 night) and Amboselli (2 night) in safari van. Charles was our guide and he could not be more experienced, interesting and knowledgeable, he knows every bit of the parks and works to track down the best sights - we saw a lion kill a buffalo!! The tour was very reliable and well organised, for example the car had a problem with the petrol filter but Charles got it fixed over a lunch break, and Kenyan run which is a plus for us. The only thing I personally would change about our trip is I would skip Lake Nakuru and probably add an extra day in Masai mara, as there was a lot of driving and although the lake was interesting it was the least of the three. We strongly recommend staying in the mara park itself as the unfenced lodges have animals that come in overnight! Having the van to ourselves was also great as you can move around to either side/back/front to see the animals best. We would certainly use Beacon Safaris again if we are able to come back to safari in Kenya.

Fantastic operator who really structured a safari that fit my desires.
I went to Rwanda and Uganda to see it all. Gorillas, chimps, lions, elephants, the Big 5, and more. It was a relief having a local who knows the roads at the wheel, taking the stress of asking directions in a foreign land (and often on dirt roads) and making transit smooth. Rwanda I can't recommend highly enough. It's the cleanest country I've ever been to. Literally only saw trash once in a week (on a rural back road) but otherwise spotless country, and so lush! Uganda was the opposite but an equally fascinating visit. It's a nation with more poverty and less infrastructure, which made it feel more rural/remote, because much of it is. Beautiful country as well with such diverse terrain ranging from rain forests to the Savannah, and a ton of amazing wildlife.
Abbey and his team made for a memorable experience and one I'd highly recommend if you want to explore East Africa.

Magnificent privet safari expirience
We did a 5 day / 4 night private safari with Migration Venture Africa and the wonderful guide Noel.
From the moment we start the trip at Tarangire, through the Serengeti to Ngorongoro crater and lake manyara, everything was just magical, Noel made sure that our trip will be amezing with his vast knowledge and keen sense of finding the animals, we saw more than we dreamed of thanks to him.
Highly recommend!!!

Great services
Traveling with Finot is a great, real adventure. A great guide with good contacts in the places you visit. Thanks to this, we were able to see more interesting things than others. Trip to the tribes of the Omo Valley.

Friendly and attentive - they were great and had every part of our journey covered!
Everyone who helped us on our trip - Abby, Steven, Philemon, Peter, and Joseph - were great. They customized the trip to what we wanted to see and it was FANTASTIC! Abby checked in multiple times to make sure things were going well, which was very comforting.

Best Tour Operators in Rwanda
I highly recommend Golden Rwanda Safaris to anyone interested in trekking to see the Gorillas and Golden Monkeys to a safari in Akagera National Park. Every detail is planned and all one has to do is show up! I booked a private solo tour with Frank at Golden Rwanda Safaris and was impressed with his thorough and thoughtful planning on every aspect of my trip. His picks on accommodations, activities and transportation was spot on. I was extremely impressed with my driver and guide, Joana who was with me throughout my 8 day journey making sure that I was comfortable, had everything I needed and was at the right place at the right time. I was so pleased to have such an informative and thoughtful woman to be my guide. Joana was amazing and one of the reasons that I especially enjoyed Rwanda and all it had to offer. The country is lush, beautiful and so very clean. You can see and feel how proud the Rwandans are of their country and how they have persevered after the Genocide. You can't go wrong with Golden Rwanda Safaris, Joana as your perfect guide and a visit to Rwanda to see all it has to offer. You won't be disappointed!!
