They are the best at what they do. Good job Imara Africa Safaris
I had an incredible experience visiting Amboseli National Park organized by Imara Africa Safaris. From start to finish, the trip was nothing short of amazing, and I can't recommend them enough. The first thing that struck me was the exceptional level of organization. Imara Africa Safaris took care of every detail, ensuring a smooth and worry-free journey. The accommodations were top-notch, offering comfort and a genuine sense of being in the heart of the African wilderness.
The real highlight, of course, was the wildlife. Amboseli National Park is home to some of the most stunning and iconic creatures on Earth. Imara Africa Safaris' guides were not only experts in their field but also passionate about wildlife conservation. Their knowledge and dedication added a whole new dimension to our experience. We had the privilege of witnessing incredible elephant herds, lions, giraffes, and countless other species up close, often in the shadow of the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro.
The memories created during this journey will be cherished forever. If you're considering a safari adventure, I wholeheartedly recommend Imara Africa Safaris for their professionalism, expertise, and genuine commitment to delivering an unforgettable and responsible travel experience.

Amazing experience, excellent Service, wonderful Safari!
We made the 5 day Safari trip in October 2023. It was absolutely amazing and wonderful and very well organized. We started ind Dar Es Salam and drove to Mikumi NP, where we saw a lot of animals. Our driver Erick was very focused to show us as many animals as possible and gave us time to observe them. He has a huge knowledge about the animals. The accommodation was also nice, absolutely value for money. After Mikumi we went to Odzungwa Mountains for a Hike and see the waterfalls and then we headed to to Nyerere NP. We learnt a lot about the Massai Tribe and the Nature, it was really stunning.
The accommodation in Nyerere was an absolutely dream, in mid of the wild.
This 5 days were really stunning and amazing and we will never forget this wonderful experience!
A big thanks to our Driver Erick and Daily Expedition! We absolutely recommend Daily Expedition.

Great safari trip
My brother and I had a great safari trip. Right Choice were very communicative and helpful from the start. Although we did have a small issue with the hotel check in in Nairobi, this was the hotel's fault and was quickly resolved. During the safari itself, I got food poisoning at one of the lodge's and Right Choice were kind enough to move the itinerary around and let us stay a further night at a different lodge and didn't charge anything more for this. Much appreciated! Our guide Smart was super good at finding all of the animals we wanted and drove around like a champion.. seeing a leopard was the highlight and absolutely incredible! My only wish was that we could communicate a little better in English.

Professional, adaptable and responsive - able to adjust itinerary during the tour!
Jennifer who runs the agency is professional; she responds quickly and provides great service. I had a 7-day trip with Amos the guide who is excellent in spotting animals. He is, punctual, knowledgeable and experienced. I would recommend this operator for sure.

Goodluck Kombe is a vibrant, knowledgeable, excited and passionate leader and teacher of all of the
I would never have thought I would be so blessed to experience the people, animals, culture and stunning Beaty of Africa. Although amongst the wild animals and terrain, I never felt unsafe. We were given detailed instruction of how to behave and operate in order to ensure our safety and security. I always felt well informed and had understanding of the adventure at hand. I was filled with so much knowledge and history of the people and wild animals in their habitat. A dream come true for me and I would recommend Habitat Adventure Travel to anyone who wants a life changing experience! Totally AWESOME!

An Unforgettable Trip!
I want to start off by saying KASC is not offering any incentive to post positive reviews, this is our unbiased opinion.
For our honeymoon, my Wife and I did a 5 day/4 night safari through Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club. We arrived in Arusha and visited Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti, and Lake Manyara. Every step of the process, from the logistics and communication, to the actual safari itself, our Guide, Gasper, the lodging, the professionalism, was all above and beyond what we were expecting. I’ll break down the highlights below by category but overall, I would not hesitate to recommend KASC to anyone looking to take on a Tanzanian safari.
Booking and Communication:
We took our time when deciding which company to go with but ultimately decided on KASC, mostly because of our budget and what they could offer at our price point. They were very helpful through the booking process and it was very easy to make all the payments online. They were very quick to respond to all of our questions, especially considering the time difference. We actually asked our guide about this during the safari and he said they have people in the office that stay up to answer emails during the US workday. My Wife is pescatarian and we were slightly worried that her food options would be limited while we were staying at lodges or camps. KASC assured us this wouldn’t be an issue at all and they were right. I think we would have been fine even if we didn’t say anything about her diet, as all lodges had ample vegetarian options. Either way, it was clear that KASC had notified every lodge in advance because they all had a record of it and made sure she had plenty of options. KASC also moved us to a newer and nicer tented lodge in the Serengeti just a few weeks before our safari at no additional cost.
Guide:
Your safari guide is a huge part of your experience. You’re spending 12+ hours a day with someone in a car and are completely dependent on them for just about everything during the trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Gasper. He was, of course, very knowledgeable of the parks, animals, plants, and landscapes. He was also happy to teach us more about Tanzanian/Swahili culture. He was very adept at figuring out what we were most interested in seeing, even if we didn’t specifically tell him. As other reviews have mentioned, he does a great job at tailoring the experience to what you are wanting to get from it.
Besides being great at his job, Gasper was great to hang out with for the 5 days we were with him. He kept us surprised and entertained throughout the whole trip and by the end we were thinking of him more as a friend than a guide.
Accommodations:
Another highlight for us was the lodges/camps throughout the trip. Each stop was wonderful, from the staff, to the food, to the rooms. All of the lodges had buffet style breakfast and dinners and none of the food disappointed. We came well prepared with medicine in case we had any stomach issues but never even had to break them out. We were pretty careful about the water at all the locations as they all advised us to not drink the tap water. All the lodges were good about providing bottled water for consumption so it was never a big issue. The lodges also provided great picnic style lunches for us each day that we could have in the park. Most of our lunches were curries with rice or pasta, kept warm in an insulated picnic box.
This was a once in a lifetime trip for us and KASC and Gasper were a huge part of that. We can’t thank them enough and highly recommend them to anyone considering a trip to Tanzania.

Good
The experience overall was good.
We made a tour in Kenya and Tanzania. The first part of the tour was with Alexander in a van. The tour guide was not that good as his English sometime wasn’t really clear. More over I don’t advise you to choose the van, as the roads are not suitable for this type of car.
The second part of the tour was with Bashir in a 4X4 and this was amazing. He was a great driver and guide.

a trustworthy operator
I've traveled to more than 40 countries so far, but this Serengeti tour in Tanzania was the most fun experience, and the Serengeti Luxury Safari made me a happy experience.
When I booked a safari tour in my country in advance, I trusted that email response was very fast and accurate. And the day before departure to Serengeti in Arusha, Noel explained the tour schedule in datail for me very kindly and slowly so that I can understand very well. Also he contacted me via WhatsApp throughout the 4days tour and asked me how the tour was. I traveled alone but thanks to Noel I could join the other group so that I made unforgettable memories with the friends I met through the safari tour. I want to say thank him again for his help.
All accomodations were nice and safe, foods were good.
If you are wondering which company to make a reservation with, I highly recommend booking with Serengeti Luxury Safaris. I guarantee you will never regret it.

Brilliant Safari Trip Organization in Kenya - Masai Mara!
As a passionate nature lover and adventurer, I recently had the privilege to travel to Kenya and explore the enchanting Masai Mara reserve. I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience provided by Rocktrek Safaris.
Prior to the trip, their communication was outstanding. Mr. Silas, with his kindness and professionalism, ensured I felt completely safe and welcome. With his exceptional support, the organization of the entire journey was flawless.
The adventure itself in Masai Mara is something I will cherish forever. From incredible safari drives to unforgettable encounters with wildlife, every moment was filled with excitement and admiration. The quality of the vehicles and guides was exceptional, enhancing the overall experience.
I highly recommend Rocktrek Safaris to anyone dreaming of a safari adventure in Kenya. This review serves as my most sincere recommendation for this outstanding company. Thank you for the unforgettable experience, Rocktrek Safaris and Mr. Silas!

My tour guide showed me great hospitality and had excellent knowledge about the animals and birds.
I returned home from my 8 Day Safari with Image Travel.
It was an Excellent and Unique experience!
I believe the key to the success and enjoyment of this safari rests in a large part with Jason, my guide and driver.
He showed me great hospitality. His knowledge of the animals and birds added a lot of information to each sighting. Additionally, he shared a lot of information with me regarding Kenyan culture and some history. Jason knows about the agriculture of Kenya which gave us the opportunity while driving to both observe and discuss some of the farming practices. At the end of each day, Jason and I would go over the plan and times for the next day's events. He was always open to my suggestions as we made our schedule.
I greatly appreciate the information that Jason provided and would like to note that he is a very safe driver. Most importantly, I thank him for his hospitality as I mentioned above. He represents Image Travel in a professional manner.
I do not have Jason's email address so I ask that you forward my comments to him.
Lodging: Check-in at each location was very efficient and fast. The reception people knew my name as I stepped up to the reception desk. Clearly there was some good coordination ahead to let them know that I was arriving at that time.
All locations had excellent lodging. The beds were comfortable, hot showers, clean rooms and every location provided me with and impressive view.
Meals: The meals at each location were buffet style. There was a large selection of ethnic dishes and the food was prepared well. In addition to the main dishes, there were an abundant choices of vegetable dishes along with several dessert selections.
Animal and Birds: I took several hundred pictures during the safari. Now I can enjoy them and share them with friends. Jason helped to spot the animals and would stop at any time that I wanted to take pictures. We would stay at a sighting until I told him that I was ready to move. I had the opportunity to see adult animals with their young ones in some cases. We also saw the aftermath of kills the lions made during the night hours. It was amazing to see the other animals and birds patiently wait at a distance until the lion(s) finished eating and then they attacked the remains.
In summary, I recommend Image Travel and would encourage the private safari inorder to get the best experience.
Jason, I thank you for 8 enjoyable joys.
