Fantastic service provided, with an excellent guide at a very good rate
This was an unbelievable experience and one we won’t ever forget. Comparatively, the price was very reasonable for a one day tour, with a pick up, drop off, breakfast and lunch. The booking experience was straight forward, and all of our questions were answered quickly and with great detail.
Our guide Bosco was incredibly knowledgable, and clearly loved his job. He had perfect timekeeping from beginning to end and communicated with us as soon as he received my number. Bosco kept us all happy, entertained and taught us all so much. He had an answer for every ridiculous question we posed, and got us into the park and back home safely. Bosco was a pleasure to be around, and was considerate of all of our needs and ensured we all took a great memory home. Even though we were entering the dry season, we were able to see so much due to his keen eye. I could list all of the animals, but I don’t think I have enough space!
I’ll just say that booking with this company, and driving with Bosco was the best way to do it, and if I ever choose to go back, I’ll be using this company and requesting Bosco!

GREAT EXPERIENCE WITH ENKAREWA SAFARIS LTD
We are an International Non governmental organisation with operations across Kenya taking care of vulnerable children and empowering families.
In 2021 we were looking for a profession tours and travel person to facilitate a team building/holiday for some of our staff.
We contacted Enkarewa Safaris in 2021 August, to help us plan for a team building gateway in Mombasa for a group of 20 people.
Amongst many service providers Nelly was very professional, flexible and quick at giving feedback which made her stand out from the rest.
The service from the first contact to the very end of our trip and bringing my group back to Meru was all amazing.
Nelly made the booking process and logistics easy, all we had to do is show up and have a good time! She went out of her way to deliver an amazing experience for us including buying us lunch on our return trip at Mtito Andei.
Our team building facilitator Henry was great! His willingness to work with us and plan activities for us was admirable. He conducted what was a very successful team building for us.
Nelly also put together a excursions that we indulged in during our stay from visiting Mombasa Old Town full day, Dhow cruise where we enjoyed Snorkeling, Watching dolphins, we visited coral Gardens in Wasini and Walked across amazing the village with our local Guide and enjoyed sea food Lunch at Wasini Island.
Nelly was great with the group and exceeded our expectations!
We shall book all our future trips with Enkarewa Safaris Ltd!
We highly recommend Nelly for anyone planning to travel for holidays as a group, individual, or as an organisation planning for team building with excursions.

Remarkable and unforgettable.
Our dream safari vacation was supposed to happen in 2020 but then COVID hit so we rescheduled for 2023. Our Amshar Serengeti Adventures guides Kisali took our family of six (including our four teen and young adult children) through Tanzania (Tarangire, Lake Manyana, Ngorogoro Crater, and the Serengeti). My husband's flight was delayed and his baggage lost; Amshar found another guide to drive him to catch us up and our guide Kisali loaned him a pair of pants so he could get through the Savannah! Kisali knew the answer to every question we asked - there wasn't a single animal, bird, or plant he could not name or tell us something interesting about! And his knowledge of Tanzania's history and people was shared generously.
We mostly stayed in Marera valley lodges and loved them! When we had problems at the one non- Marera place we were staying at, janeth and amina at Rhino went above and beyond to move us to camp that was fabulous. What we loved about the companies we worked with: they cared not only about the customer, but also about their employees and guides. We felt safe and well cared for, the food was fantastic, and we learned so much about beautiful Tanzania and the incredible wildlife of the Serengeti. Thank you so much!

Great trip, and it was a privilege to spend 5 days with Peter and Eddie.
We were really happy with our trip!
A group of us had a scientific conference in Kigali, and we arranged a trip afterward with Big Apes. We were in two subgroups: a couple, and a group of friends. The couple rode with Peter, while the 6 friends rode in Eddie's tour van, with some crossover between cars. We chose an itinerary that involved both Uganda (gorilla tracking) and Rwanda (safari) because we were coming from Kigali. If we could do it over, we would just do everything in Uganda; reaching the national parks in either country requires extra driving time, so splitting between countries inserts a long drive with a border crossing in the middle of the trip. The folks at Big Apes have a good sense for what makes a good itinerary, I would trust them.
For me, the trip's biggest highlights were:
- the gorillas
- all the other animals
- seeing Uganda/Rwanda and their people out the car window
- getting to spend 5 days riding with Peter
By the way, I'm totally a real person. Here are some group photos with Peter and Eddie: https://twitter.com/savvyRL/status/1657773777537880067

Great 5 day hike in Bale Mountains
Our 5 day hike in Bale mountains was great. Armaye and the team are kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. The terrain is beautiful and varied and overall was a a great experience. Would definitely recommend Armaye and this hike to anyone wanting nature.
He was the best tour operator
We had an excellent time with team SAWAS. It was one of our best trip in recent times. This was our first trip with Super Africa Wildlife and Adventure Safaris and we were all impressed and very happy with the way it was organized. I would like to specially thank Mr Martin the manager for organizing this trip for us very efficiently. Everything was upto standard and we were actually impressed with they way they carry themselves and treat their customers. You were excellent in communication and sorting out our holiday. All details were taken care of. The driver and tour guide Mr benson was very good, kind and professional. The vehicle was nice, warm and comfortable. Hotels were amazing which we received 5 star treatment from staff. They were quick in response to our needs. The game drives were the best part of our safari where we had one on one encounter with the wild animals of the savannah. We had so much fun. Thank you team SAWAS we are looking forward to our next safari with your company. Highly recommend.

Unique!
Dream Africa Vacations is the best company you could ever choose. Their preoccupation and care are exceptional as long as their unlimited information about everything related to Zimbabwe, Victoria Falls and the all the experiences we went through with them, which made a huge difference in our experience! If you are thinking about coming to Vic Falls and Zimbabwe, don’t forget to call them and book everything you want to do!

The guy he's so smart in animal and plant species
I have always wanted to go on an African safari so my sister and I went on a 4-day camping safari with Ozon light tour,
We started at Lake Manyara National Park, went to Serengeti National Park and then the Ngorongoro Crater.
Peter, our guide, knew everything about all the animals and their whereabouts - even spotted all the big cats up close and a black rhino! Camping was super fun and our chef, Fred, cooked the best dinners.
We felt very safe and comfortable the whole time. If you're looking for an unforgettable trip, look no further - Ozon light tours takes care of you!

Trek2Kili offers amazing tours and treks that provide the best customer experience, hands down.
Customer experience and value are top notch with this company. We found we were able to squeeze in a day-long safari the day before we left for our Kili trek, and Iza made it happen with less than 24 hours notice. Our hiking trek to Kili was extremely special—the whole crew made us feel like family. We ended our journey with a coffee farm tour. This is a local business owner who promotes the people and culture of Tanzania lovingly and responsibly.
