attentive
I am positive we had the best tour operator, John! He was very knowledgeable about the parks and the animals. He interacted with us and often thought of things we did not :) He was professional in hi dealings with everyone in the vehicle, and was extremely reliable! I highly recommend Axis Africa, and will be referring family and friends to this company and tour operator specifically!!

Amazing experience, outstanding guide
Have already shared Africa Zim's contact info with friends along with highest of recommendations! The hotels/lodges they found were A+, with a special shout out to Nata Lodge, Botswana, as our favorite of the properties y'all selected, and the giant buffet at Cresta Maun also deserves a compliment. Best of the destinations was a day in a flat-bottom canoe in the Okavango Delta - sheer bliss. Our trip guide, Cosmos, was aces - like a member of our extended family from day one. We are in the midst of planning a cross-country tour in the U.S. soon and sure wish Cosmos could join us here! Eager to return to South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Botswana one day, but only if we can re-hire Cosmos :) Thanks for the trip of a lifetime, and a lifetime of memories!

Fantastic! Too bad 6 stars is not an option
We were taken care of as soon as we landed in Nairobi.
Taken to our hotel ,picked up 2 days later and taken to the little airport for our trips to Masai Mara and Serengeti.
We had the presidential suite at both resorts and they are Fantastic.
The Serena lodges were great. Food was good, safaris were top notch.
John was the best to deal with at CKC.

a place where it feels evolution of the earth
As my first trip to Namibia I chose to visit Namib Naukluft National Park and Swakopmund for four days tour, organized and accompanied by a tour operator, the People's Tour & Safaris. I commend all details of the tour operator, especially our tour guide's heartful support, that made my travel safe, pleasant and unforgettable, first of all. Secondly, after having known the Namib Naukluft National Park, I have got a sense of being at present moment on the earth that has been transforming for millions years and it has felt so peace. Not only visiting the Sossusvlei, Deadvlei and Sesiriem canyon but also passing through the montane area to Swakopmund, the Atlantic Ocean coast, I could grasp how the Namibian nature has been respected and conserved. Standing on the beach in Swakopmund and looking at the Atlantic, I did imagine how courageous then the people were to search for unknown. I am very happy and lucky to get to know Namibia and would like to visit again to explore more of the vast country, next time about the Namibian people.

Absolutely worth a visit (or more)
I visited Nairobi, Masai Mara and Mombasa.
Nairobi is a beautiful city with a lot of tourist attractions.
I visited KICC. Beautiful view.
National Museum. (With a guide)So exiting.
Giraf Center. Very fun to feed the girafs.
Masai Mara is beautiful and full of exiting experiences. Even the Jeep ride there is full of beautiful scenery.
We had a nice "hotel" AA Logde. Lovely pool, super cabins and good food. Very nice staff.
And Safari is an undescrible experience. Super exiting is how i will describe it with few words.
Mombasa is nice and calm. Very hot. But i think its mostly for beach vacation. Good food, wonderful beaches.
All together people all over are very friendly and helpful.
And they all speak english wich is a BIG plus.
Im gonna come back for sure.

True professionals of the highest standards
Me and my friend booked a 3 days tour that included the Masai Mara reserve and the Masai Village. Furthermore, we stayed for 2 nights at the AA lodge in Mara on an all basis.
Everything was just perfect and of the highest standards. Starting with the kind attitude at the time of the initial contact with the company, the high availability, flexibility and the adaptation of the best package according to our request when at each stage we were sent the tour offers according to the adjustments we requested. Later, when booking everything was well documented and receipts and documents detailing the entire trip were sent to us immediately.
Later, we had a super professional guide and driver - Manu, who speaks fluent English is very experienced in doing safari trips. He was always on time, gave us detailed explanations about the animals in the reserve and about multiple issues in Kenya in general, very courteous and caring with a very pleasant and friendly attitude.
In addition all the coordination with the local authorities was perfectly done and everything went smoothly.
Finally, the AA lodge were we stayed was an amazing place, the food was great, the lodge was spacious and clean and the staff were really courteous. Large safari hats were given to us and mineral water was supplied during all tour.
The highlights of the tour were seeing lions from very close, seeing a live kill of a buffalo by a hyena and visiting the Masai tribe.
I strongly recommend Alligator Adventures Tours & Safaris Kenya they are true professionals with the highest standards.

Outstanding Experience - Trip of a Lifetime
We had an amazing experience with Lion King and Mwita as our guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the animals and their behaviour, always eager to answer our questions and provide fascinating facts about the wildlife. His sharp eyes and knowledge of the areas helped us spot some of the more elusive creatures. Our accommodation was first class, especially at Mt. Manyara Kilimamoja - it literally took my breath away - it was so stunning. The dinner and lunch time meals were delicious, and the family labelled wine was such
nice touch. Mwita is a terrific guide, great driver, great spotter of the animals and his knowledge of where they might be hiding was amazing!! We saw the big 5 and even though Mwita has seen these beautiful animals many times, he was very excited for us to see/experience them for our first time!!! . Overall, I highly recommend Lion King Adventures for a memorable and enjoyable safari experience.

He was patient and very detailed
it was a great experience. the tour guide was very nice towards us, was able to look out for the animals, and took us close enough to experience them. He was patient. We really enjoyed our time at the park all thanks to the tour guide.
