An eye for the African Savannah. Excellent.
We went on a dream two days Tsavo East Safari from Diani Beach with Afrika Kenya Safari. Our professional and knowledgeable guide Abdul picked us from our Hotel as we headed to Tsavo. The Safari Jeep was very comfortable with a pop up roof for game viewing. We got to Tsavo through the Bachuma gate. Abdul had an eye for the big cats and the Red Elephants
This was the Christmas holiday that my family and i had been dreaming of. We were booked at the luxurious Ashnil Aruba lodge which was top notch. Afrika Kenya Safari gave us a memorable Safari. We highly recommend them. Our guide Abdul was the best. We will do another Safari soon.

Professional services amazing experience
We choose a 3 days safari in Ngorongoro crater and Serengeti park and we have amazing safari ! We saw the big Five and everybody of my friends is bery excitement!
Σε ένα τριήμερο σαφάρι καταφέραμε να δούμε όλα τα ζώα και να ζήσουμε μια μοναδική εμπειρία! Η διαμονή μας ήταν σε σκηνές οι οποίες ήταν ολοκαίνουργιες και οι οδηγοί Rama και Locadia ήταν τρομερά έμπειροι και ευγενικοί .

Excellent service
The tour was amazing. I did a 5 day tour in Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Manyara and Tarangire, the guide was knowledgeable about animals and we managed to see the big 5. I recommend Lion King adventures.

African Polecat is the tops for safari in Tanzania!
Our group opted for the 2 day safari- to Lake Manyara National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater. From start to finish, the service was professional and customizable. They sent a driver to pick us up at the Kilimanjaro airport and bring us to Arusha so we would be ready to start the safari early the next morning- at least a 4 hour round trip for the driver! Accommodations in Arusha were comfortable, in a safe enough area, and within walking distance to shops and food options. John, our Polecat ground-ops representative, took care to make sure we had everything we needed- including (and most importantly!) arranging for us to get Covid testing done, which we needed to be able to travel the day after the safari ended. This was above and beyond, and he was able to make this happen for us with very short notice. He also stocked the safari vehicle with plenty of water- which we found out was a necessity because the ride gets very hot and dusty in the park. (Make sure to pack sunscreen and dress for the heat!)
Our safari guide, Yusef, picked us up the next morning and took us to Lake Manyara. We saw so many different animals from a very close range- elephants, giraffes, monkeys (many different types), water Buffalo, zebras, and some interesting birds (to name a few). The only thing we missed were the tree-climbing lions. (Pro tip- ask your guide to start your day very early in the morning, if possible, to have a better chance of seeing the lions.) We opted to upgrade our experience and stay in a lodge for the overnight, and it was a very cute little property with friendly staff and a swimming pool as well. That night, Yusef took us to a local restaurant at our request- rather than eating at the lodge, as planned. (Customizable service, as mentioned!) We were very grateful for his flexibility on this!
The following morning, we got up super early (again, Yusef being so flexible with our requests!), to start our drive to the Ngorongoro Crater. We were one of the first groups through the gate, and it paid off with all the animals we got to see and experience within the crater! We saw everything from families of lions, to elephants, wildebeests, zebras, flamingos, jackals, warthogs, hippos, rhinos, cranes, and more! We had a nice picnic lunch by the hippo pool, where we could also buy ice cream, coffee, beer and other snacks (a nice surprise treat!).
Not enough can be said about our safari guide, Yusef! He was so knowledgeable on the parks and the animals, and also taught us so much about the African tribal culture and the history of the Africa nations. We learned so much and gained a lifelong friend in Yusef!
10/10 would recommend African Polecat Safaris for your Tanzanian safari! Book with them, request Yusef, and know you are in good hands!

Wanted a quality, romantic New Years break. That is exactly what Go Self-Drive tours did for us.
All well organised, Onguma the Fort was fantastic !

Amazing trip
Our trip to Uganda with Pearl Afric was very well organised. We contacted them a few months before the trip and Innocent, the boss, took the time to adapt the course according to our wishes. Our driver-guide Hannington was very attentive. Cautious on the road, always on time, foreseeing, calm, he took us through a large part of the western region while explaining it to us. Regarding the accommodation, everything was adapted to our wishes. We did not want luxury accommodation but rather budget, even camp or close to the inhabitant. Covid issue, everything was managed by the agency. At no time did we have to worry about formalities. Everything was planned. Little more and which is always very pleasant from our point of view, Innocent, the boss, wanted to meet us during the trip to share a moment together. We therefore recommend Pearl Africa with our eyes closed ;-)

Very knowledgeable tour guide and Excellent customer care!
Very knowledgeable tour guide and Excellent customer care!
Absolutely incredible experience with Safari Update Travels. We choose 3-day Safari in Masai Mara, it was the best choice based on the experience and price for us. Linsel organized everything perfectly and thanks to Jimmy we were able to see almost every animal in Masai Mara (best eyes in Kenya, he could see every tail hiding in the bush). We were staying in Enkorok camp which gave us an authentic feeling of staying in the wild (and food was great). On the last day, Linsel was so kind and booked for us a train ticket to Mombasa. After a safari tour, we continued to travel across Kenya and Linsel was very supportive the whole time.
At first, we thought the bookng amount was too high but we decide to go with it. The value for our money was excellent, we even felt we paid less regarding the experience we had. I highly only recommend. During our tour we met other tourists who did not get the experience we had.
I especially thank Linsel and Jimmy for a great experience and I hope we will see each other again.
