Everything I expected was fulfilled. And a little bit more ...
I would like to thank the UHURU TRAVEL & TOUR LTD for well-prepared safari.
Firstly, my gratitude goes to Margaret for her professional and quick response. This was one of the moments that decided that I will use services of UHURU TRAVEL & TOUR LTD. Then, I would like to thank Mr. Roy for his personal approach and assistance provided to us during our trip in Tanzania. Last but not least, my big thank you! goes to our guide Mr. Mak with whom we spent pleasant 8 days and who sincerely looked after us. Our thank you belongs as well to other people who by their own way contributed to our beautiful and pleasant stay in Tanzania.
Should we decide to return to Tanzania or to Kenya in the future (which I do plan), I would very much like to use UHURU TRAVEL & TOUR LTD services again.
I wish you many satisfied clients!!!

Do NOT book with this company
Communication with this guy Joseph was terrible. We booked a 3 day trip to Masai Mara. We were supposed to meet them at 9am in the hotel, he arrived by 10 am with another couple saying he had a problem with another driver(probably a lie) and told us we had to share the safari, although we had paid for private safari. Finally we went to Masai Mara, we had our game drives and when we were leaving the camp site on the final day we were told we could not leave because the company hadn’t paid our stay. So to be able to leave we had to pay AGAIN for something it was already included. Terrible company, don’t even think to book with them.

Service oriented operator that aims for customer satisfaction. Will recommend highly!
Hilary was a good communicator from the get go. He was transparent with his pricing and stuck to his word. Unlike other tour operators with whom you feel exhausted after negotiating prices and still come out feeling cheated, Hilary is clear with his pricing and how much discount he can give. He also addressed all our concerns including our dietary preferences as we are Hindu non vegetarians.
Coming to the actual trip, Hilary made sure that the driver came to pick us up at Arusha airport on time. The hotel booked for us in Arusha too (jevas) was neat and clean.
For the safari, we had a vehicle from 7 wonders and Amos as the driver cum guide and Khaya as the chef. Both Amos and Khaya were wonderful. Amos took us on as many game drives as could fit in a day. He was never impatient or rude and was cheerful at all times, even sharing in our excitement although it must be getting old for him. Khaya was exceptional with his cooking skills and his kindness. He always had coffee and snacks ready for us after game drives. The lunches and dinner, whether picnic or hot, were so tasty with a lot of variety and included vegetarian items, eggs and chicken for two of us along with pork items for others. He plated exceptionally well too and every item was a work of art. I will forever remember Amos and Khaya and I thank Hilary and Suricata safaris for making this trip and enjoyable and memorable one for us.
Note: the camps we stayed in needed improvement but these are govt owned campsites so nothing the safari operators could do about it. At the end of the day, you are in the wild so luxury is not an option unless you spend too dollar on lodges.
Note 2: the car hire service Hilary ordered to drop us to JRO airport at end of trip messed up by being late, making us wait and being rude. Hilary made sure he picked us up from Arusha and delivered us to airport himself to soothe our frayed nerves and make up for that bitter experience. Also, he gave us some local currency out of his own pocket to make sure we had dinner at airport as we couldnt have anything earlier due to the delay. If this isn’t customer service, I don’t know what is!

Excellent experience since booking till actual safari.
I have been communicating with Lennox for last 2 years. He is very prompt, helpful, reliable. There is no hidden cost. Facilities provided are beyond our expectations.
We have visited lake naibhasa and Masai Mara. I would recommend everyone to book through axis Africa safaris

Amazing 6 day safari in the Maasai Mara
Just had a 6 day safari with Patrick. This is the second time we have had Patrick as our guide and cannot recommend him and his company enough. He went out of his way to do everything he could for us. He always got us in the best position to take photos, knew when the wildebeest would cross the river and had eyes like a hawk to spot animals and birds from a distance. He would take us on safari whenever we wanted staying out all day with breakfast and lunch boxes some days. I cannot recommend him and this company enough.

Safari with quality
The operator Kennedy is responsible and replied quickly. Everything is prepared carefully.
For the animals, we saw big five, lions, elephants, leopard, rhino and buffalo. I recommend stay in Masai Mara for more days.
For the hotel, all the hotels are good, especially the Spirit of Masai Mara. They are closed to tourist attraction. The hotels are with WiFi,water and electronic.
For the car, we use jip in the whole journey. It is a must to use because the journey will be more comfortable and can see more animals.
For the driver Sammy, he is very punctual. And tried his best to look for the animals for us.
At all, the journey is excellent with good quality and it is unforgettable in my life.
