Heritawi for well organized, affordable safari with excellent 24/7 support for anything you require.
We had a last minute plan to spend a safari holiday with our kids in Kenya. Julius of Heritawi Safaris Ltd. made a very nice proposition for a budget and a mid-luxury holiday including Naivasha, Nakuru and 4 days in Maasai Mara so we could decide how much we wanted to spend. We received a full day to day description within 48 hours. Although the Mara lodging was changed from just outside the Mara to a lodge within as the proposed lodge became full all went according to plan. He also was an incredible help organizing Kenya ETA visa forms within hours as time was critical and we couldn’t wait for the slower official Kenya channels. Our guide/driver Brian was great. Within the first hour in Maasai Mara he got us close to the most elusive of animals, the leopard in a tree with a half eaten impala. We had a comfortable private safari jeep. We travelled with a 4 and 6 your old and Julius arranged high backed child car seats. In the end we didn’t use it as the normal seats are very comfortable. We ended up with the kids standing on the armrests with their heads sticking out the elevated roof with their faces in the wind scanning for animals like dogs sticking their heads out of a car window and their tongues flapping in the wind. Highlights were the walking safari on Crescent Island with Stephen, walking the gorge in Hell’s Gate with Patrick, the food, entertainment, pool and lodging at Sarova Nakuru. But most of all every minute in the Mara. Kids could very well handle long drives from 07.00 in the morning till 15.00 in the afternoon. On our way back to Europe we were confronted with a flight cancellation and Julius could help with useful info to get us with Visa into Tanzania for an available flight from there back home. He is always easy to reach, quick with solutions, reliable information by himself or knowledgeable to see who to contact for required information. We highly recommend Heritawi because Julius is knowledgeable, well connected and hands on. He saved the day more than once for us when we encountered some complications during planning and on the way. His goal is always to have the customers in mind and create the best experience possible for the amount of money you want to spend. Mind you, Safari is not cheap but you can focus your means on experience and comfort. We think he finds just the right balance. Thank you Julius and Brian for an amazing journey. The Kleinjan family.

So professional, delivering a quality product exceeding all of our expectations.
My husband and I along with our adult son just had the most spectacular experience with the help of Serengeti Wakanda. Aishwarya helped put together a 7 day itinerary covering the Northern/Central Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire, and everything went so smoothly. She took care of airport transfers, our flight to Northern Serengeti, and all accommodations working with us in terms of what was still available and our budget. She promptly responded to all my questions. After booking, communications switched from email to WhatsApp.
Our guide, Godlove, was everything we hoped for and more! He was eagle eyed, seeing animals I could barely make out with my binoculars even after he pointed them out to me. Granted seeing wildlife is never guaranteed, we were able to see everything we hoped to see with Godlove’s experience, his network of other guides, and a little luck. We saw a wildebeest crossing within a couple of hours of our touching down in the Serengeti. Godlove knew where they would cross so we had front row seats. In addition to the big five and the ugly five, we saw a cerval stalking its dinner and a honey badger. Maybe not what most people look for, but those were both very rare sightings. He is a wealth of information, sharing with us his vast knowledge and answering all of our questions. He is also a very safe driver, which I can’t say is necessarily the case of others out in the Serengeti. He cleaned it every evening, which is a big deal given how dusty it was. He never rushed us. He made us feel like we were in charge of our schedule. He is the ultimate cool guide.
Our lunches were always the type of food had we eaten back at the lodge. Every day, Godlove would break out stainless steel pots of meats and vegetables and rice and noodles. We so appreciated that over the boxed lunches many other groups had. Also so much less packaging waste.
We stayed in lovely accommodations, most notably the Lala Salama in Central Serengeti owned by Wakanda. All accommodations had very welcoming staff. We preferred the smaller places to avoid having larger groups of tourists.
We decided to book a balloon safari. That was very enjoyable.
Overall, an unforgettable experience and we would not hesitate to recommend Serengeti Wakanda.

Perfection
I booked a safari tour thanks to a colleague and I'm very happy to have chosen Axis Africa Safari. Everything was well organized, no delay or issue. Camp, lunch, dinner, every movement from parks, all set without I needed to do or think about anything, only relaxing and having fun. Maximum flexibility and professionalism. Our guide, Mohamed, was amazing, full of passion and have enriched our game drives with tips and knowledge about Kenya and animals. He was always helpful, gentle and respectful of people and animals. If I love this trip, it is thanks to Axis and Mohamed. 100% recommended

Perfect
We had an excellent experience with Mateo Adventures. From the first day contact was easy via WhatsApp. Patrick organized everything perfect for us. We did a 6 day Safari from Nairobi to Massai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. We had tented lodges and one hotel to sleep in. All were good with better food than we expected. Our guide Gordon was a very experienced driver who managred all situations on the difficult roads in the parks. He also was perfect to find the animals. So on day 3 we had the big five.
Highly recommended tour operator you can rely on.

The perfect trip
It was a perfect trip, and we enjoyed every single moment! We would recommend it to everyone. Our guide was Nixon, and he was the best guide we could have asked for! He explained everything so well, showed us all the amazing animals, and taught us so much about them. He was always attentive to our needs, helped us with everything, and made the whole experience absolutely unforgettable. Nixon is a wonderful, kind, and truly amazing guide!

Unforgettable safari with Tracks of Africa
There are journeys that leave a deep mark, and our safari with Tracks of Africa was one of them. The African wilderness welcomed us with its boundless beauty, but what truly turned this adventure into an unforgettable memory were the people who accompanied us along the way.
Our guides — Inno, Gregorio, and Peter — were exceptional.
Inno won us over with his contagious humor and his endless collection of Italian proverbs; Gregorio created a genuine bond with our kids; and Peter, with a maturity beyond his years, guided us with great confidence even along the most challenging roads in the parks.
Alongside them, Sara’s discreet and constant presence ensured that everything ran smoothly from start to finish.
Thanks to their stories, we discovered not only the most iconic animals and landscapes, but also the most authentic soul of Tanzania.
An experience that will stay in our hearts forever.
Highly recommended.

Great safari in Tanzania
We enjoyed our safari in Serengeti, Tarangire and Ngorongoro. Our guide Rasta man was cool and chill. He shares a lot of information for
the habitat of the animals. We succeeded to see the Great five during our journey and the crossing of wild beasts through Mara river.
All the camps were great and the stuff there very kind. Suricata boma logde were excellent and we had a great time there.

Always present and caring
Our safari through Kenya and Tanzania with Bavuma was perfect. Right from the early stages of planning, Joshua was very helpful and eager to accommodate our requests as best as possible. I highly recommend having Bavuma as your local agency to organize safaris, as they know exactly what it takes to make your trip safe and unforgettable.
