Good safari, great customer service
We went for a 10 day safari, 3 in kenya on the Maasai Mara, with then a transfer to Arusha and several days more of safari, including Ngorogoro and the Serengetti.
Evelyn for 7 wonders is great, she took care of everything and if there was a small issue she solved it straight away. Accomodations were all as advertised and sometimes better. Staff on the safari's was good (though our kenyan driver Benson was a bit of a hustler)
all in all would definitely recommend

Flawless: everything organized to perfection
Communication was excellent, the service top notch, we got more than expected, the tour was as programmed and a bit of good luck helped a lot on spotting many animals during our safari. the guide, Loma, truly made the difference. Very nice and professional guide and person.

The most amazing experience
We were so lucky to come across Silverback Expeditions when planning our trip to Rwanda! The communication with Jane couldn't be any clearer - not to mention how fast she replied... We even wondered if she slept at all!
About the Gorilla Trekking... how can I put it?! Simply indescribable. It's a physically demanding activity but so rewarding!
We do not hesitate to recommend Silverback Expeditions to anyone thinking of visiting Rwanda.

Trips with Rufus mnt Kenya
During my visits to Kenya i made several tours. The first was a visit to mount kenya departing in Nairobi and included a hike from Nanyuli to Chogoria. We had the luck to reach the top early in the morning and enjoyed a marvelous view. It was a nice trip with a good guide and porter. A great companion with enough knowledge to tell about the nature around. In those days they also organized a trip to thr Masai Mara to see the willife
Some years later we had less luck a beautiful hike through the valley...but snowstorms imade it impssible to reach point Lenanathe last trip was with my daughter to Tsavo am looking back at a wonderful country with a great toirguide. Hope the readers will get the oppurtunity to see what i was able to see.

Experiencing Kenya absolutely amazing in every single detail
I really appreciated the e-mail communications early on, as this was our first African safari and we had many questions. Sylvester of Seven By Far covered every aspect of our visit, from meeting us at the airport on arrival for transfer, to detailed safari and lodge experiences, to securing a last-minute hotel room on our last day. A great surprise was an unexpected cake during one of our dinners to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary, very nice! The Safari Guide provided, Nick Kiritu, was absolutely the best guide ever, experienced and knowledgeable, his understanding of the animal habits allowed us to get photos and video of incredible wildlife events that would not have happened without his "reading" what was taking place and moving us into position before it happened. From a cheetah pair taking down a wildebeest right in front of us, to a Giraffe funeral, amazing footage and experiences. Nick we cannot thank you enough. Seven By Far arranged our stay at four different Sopa Lodges in Kenya, which were all impressively nice, especially considering their remote locations. I highly recommend Seven By Far, Sylvester and his team are the ONLY way to travel for the best safari experience "by far" in Kenya. One last word, WOW!

A fantastic trip
I booked a six-day safari with sevenbyfar including 2 days at the Maasai Mara, Nakuru Lake und Amboseli NP, starting in Nairobi and ending at Diani Beach south of Mombasa. It was a complete private Safari, just the guide/drive and me in the car. I have to say that the tour was just perfect. The guide/driver was not only very friendly and helpful, he was a great "game finder" and very knowledgeable too. He told me (close to) everything about the animals and their habits. He adapted the tour to my needs and fulfilled each wish (which were partly special as I am a photographer).
I also got to know the owner of the Company and have to say that he too, does not only made a very professional Impression, but is a very friendly person and great character. He even made suggestions to "optimize" my stay and trip, although these suggestions were not to his profit.
I can only say that I highly recommend sevenbyfar and I personally will definitely go with this team/company on my next safari.
Sylvester & Charles: Thank you very much and hope to see you soon again!

Amazing service, they really care about you enjoying the experience!
I was really surprised about how great they managed every situation. The service was amazing. They welcomed us and explained us everything again. When the safari started they even upgraded the experience. Whenever we were on the road we could see how Fredric, our guide, was always trying to make us enjoy the experience; he knew a lot about the animals, the place and the country itself. It was great to have somebody so prepared during the trip. We saw the big 5!! We are really thankful and will totally recommend Suricata! They are amazing! :)
