The best Safari we ever had, we highly recommend Bushshrike Safaris
We had a great time with my sister, from the start everything was well organized, the guides were well informative and amazing. We had the opportunity to do the sunset cruise , elephant interaction and also the gorge swing. It was the experience we will never forget, money we'll spend and we highly recommend Bushshrike Safaris. Their services are superb and the guides are friendly and well informative.

Perfectly coordinated and executed!
We booked a 3-day Masai Mara safari with Antonio Safaris through safaribookings.com, and we really feel like we lucked out. From start to finish, the entire experience was incredibly smooth and completely exceeded our expectations!
Our guide, Anthony, was funny and supremely knowledgeable. We met him in the morning and his bright, friendly energy immediately set a great tone for the trip. Even though we were suuuuuper jet-lagged and kept passing out on the drive from Nairobi, he was incredibly patient and kind to us đŸ˜… On the game drives, Anthony showed how much of an expert he is. He had this amazing knack for safely steering off the main paths to get us up close to the wildlife without disrupting them. He truly felt like our "Lucky Man" given how many impressive animals we spotted!
Behind the scenes, Edna was fantastic. She coordinated our whole itinerary from our very first inquiry, staying in constant communication, answering all our random questions, and sending helpful reminders as the trip approached.
We stayed at Mara Maisha Camp, which was a wonderful mid-range spot. The tents/cabins were spacious and cozy, the food was delicious, and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. We are 100% reaching out to Antonio’s again whenever we make it back to Kenya!
Incredibly accommodating professionals complimenting their engaging personalities and knowledge
Simply put, Thomas and his team are phenomenal. We had a large group (25ish people) on a global studies trip that created a lot of challenges. However, the incredible professionals at Naked Wilderness Africa navigated everything with ease and went above and beyond to ensure every timeline was met while still being able to satisfy adhoc requests. (Multiple airport trips, separate drop off locations).
We had a small group attend the African Basketball League finals (last minute plan) before our flights and Thomas and crew not only took us to the game but also waited outside with our luggage.
Their team was genuine, funny and engaging the entire duration of our trip. From pick up at our hotel in Kigali to drop off at the airport the conversation, education and laughs were constant.
If you were looking for the review to solidify your choice in Safari vendor, let this be your sign. Book it NOW. You will not regret it.
Side note: HUGE shout out to our Jeep driver, Pacific aka P $money! You’re the man!

THE BESTEST IN THE GAME
We had an amazing safari experience through Tanzania’s national parks! Every day was unforgettable and exciting, from seeing lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, leopards, buffalos and birds in their natural habitat to witnessing the breathtaking landscapes and sunsets.
We are very grateful to our amazing tour guide, Innocent! He was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, patient, honest, and made sure we had the best safari experience possible. He explained everything so well, answered all our questions, and always made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trip. He made sure we were happy with everything, such as our daily schedule, food, and accomodations!
Special thank you to Richard (he was training with Innocent at the time). Richard was very kind, funny, attentive, and eager to learn!
Innocent and Richard worked so hard to make every game drive exciting and memorable. They both have such big hearts and big smiles. On our last day, they gifted my husband and I the cutest local scarves. We will never forget them.
Another special thank you to Yohana (he works in office), he was our main point of contact and he arranged our itinerary while we were in the USA. He was very easy to communicate. I really appreciate how quick he responded to all messages and questions!
The safari exceeded all our expectations and became one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had. We highly recommend Ozon Light Tours to anyone visiting Tanzania for a safari adventure!

Master class
Absolutely the best experience we could have asked for. I traveled with a university field study group of 25, and the team managed us with absolute professionalism. We didn't have to worry about a single thing—the entire trip was thoughtfully planned, and their local expertise was invaluable.
Furthermore, when my post-study plans to trek with gorillas in Uganda fell through due to Ebola travel restrictions, Thomas and his team stepped in instantly. Knowing I still wanted to see the gorillas, they acted swiftly to arrange a trek for me in Rwanda—during peak season, no less! I truly couldn't have asked for a better guide company. Highly recommended!

Incredible, Detailed-Oriented Tour Operators
Thomas is the GOLD STANDARD your operator. He worked with my university group to schedule a full week of activities and two full days of safari. I have since gone on safari with other tours, and can say with conviction that Thomas and his team are knowledgeable, natively fluent in English, and are the kinds of operators who allow you to fully turn your brain off on vacation. ANY problem that arises they will solve and I always felt like I could count on them to figure it out for me without involving me in the details. This is who you want to work with. Thomas and his team are also so much fun to be around and are truly joyful and a delight to spend long Safari days with.
